Chippy game.

Loving the idea of having a nuclear deterrent, would be nice to have a Marcus Foligno, Tom Wilson type.

I could see Utah potentially upsetting teams if the won a wildcard position. They are a sneaky good team.

Skaters like Boeser are going to struggle with how fast the game has gotten.

There will always be a place for the Toffolis of the league. Problem is Boeser has yet to establish the track record of Toffoli. Till then, he’s gonna struggle.

Bedard needs to figure out how to avoid becoming the second coming of Trevor Zegras cause that’s where he is heading and well on his way. Barrett Hayton has made substantial gains in his development, he’s coming around.
Cooley is a nice young player. He is also insulated. Macklin has some insulation. Bedard has fuck all surrounding him. At least Foligno and Fat Balloon will insulate the kid physically. He needs someone to play with. Not surprised to see you pick an American. After all they won a Best on Best 29 years ago. Hayton was drafted seven years ago. Its about time. Shane Wright is also looking good. Imagine that. He's five years younger than Hayton.

Just win. And beat the faggoty Jets next. I don't ask for much.
I’m just not digging Bedard’s game right now, he looks lazy and unwilling to put out that extra second effort to make room for himself. I think he expects it to be easy for him out there. Quinn Hughes and Befard are roughly the same size but Hughes puts in the effort to separate himself from defenders. Bedard is just a little too lazy in effort for my liking. Think he needs a head adjustment the same way Zegras does. I think he’ll get there but last nights game only proved he still has a long way to go.
One is 25 on a competitive team while the other is 19 on an AHL team. He can't be this stupid....... can he?

You can get away with one of the rest of your roster is quick, but the Canucks probably have the slowest forward group in the NHL. Lekkerimaki ain’t exactly a speed demon, I sure do hope he ain’t the second coming of Anton Rodin.

Are you comparing Lekkerimaki to Rodin after 10ish games. If you are, come on man you have to better than that.

Wrong on so many accounts. Why doesn't anyone else take him to task for these Gomer like takes. I feel like I'm killing a housefly with a hammer.

Listen Blobbee, Bedard has god given talent, elite level skill but the dude needs to step it up on effort. He expects too much respect out there, needs to work harder, needs to move his feet more. Ya look at Cooley and he plays like Quinn Hughes, making something out of nothing, always, works hard for every inch. Bedard, not so much. He’s too Zegras for my liking.

I said I hope he ain’t the next Rodin, meaning there is a chance he isn’t.

Give Utah credit, they have been making controlled entries, but Tocchy-hockey dump and chase entries are not working so far.
