I’m constantly impressed with Highmore

Hard to judge in this pond hockey game which both teams are playing at half the speed of the earlier playoff games. His give away at the blue line was not ideal.
I know it's only been 3 or 4 shifts and there may be a lot of first game nerves, but from what I've seen, it's clearly not NHL level. He needs a LOT of work.

You can be impressed by his dogged determination, but he is a lesser Motte. Maybe slightly more offensive IQ than Motter, but absolutely no hands.

He fills the bottom role better than Gaudette, but from an offensive standpoint, he's nowhere near as good.

Green should play Rathbone the last two games. Get him out on the #2 PP again. Juolevi is gonna need a hell of an off season of the right kind of learning regime. He just doesn't know what to do instinctively at this point.

Oh noes, just saw his last shift... Is Greener gonah bench jonah for the rest of the game?
Jonah pulled a bonah.
Jonah made a whale of a gaffe ;)
A faux pas by Jonah.

No matter who Seattle winds up with off of our roster, they'll be getting a player who isn't what he Kraked up to be...

Hawrlyuk is the kind of guy Jimmy really likes to take a chance on.

No. It's because these guys can't consistently make easy passes. Part of it is the system, part of it is the lack of quality of the players.

If it hit the tape, then Hughes doesn't need to reach and get crunched.
