  1. That’s a wonderful second unit. Hope they get some good pp time
  2. If I remember correctly, not saying I do, but it seems Skinner was doing ok until Alex Tuch joined the line up and he really took off after that. Tuch has had an impact of the other players around him, imo.
  3. A+ pretty much so far. He has fit in almost perfectly. A few mistakes, but whatever. He has looked great. Better than I expected. I thought he might struggle more. His skating ability is just unreal.
  4. Oh gees, hope he is ready for Bruins game. Beating them would be good end of season win
  5. This is a tough one. Saturday at 12:30? With nice weather outside?
  6. Yup https://www.si.com/nhl/2012/02/29/players-smokingcigarettesnhlhockeyIf you ever saw the Montreal Canadiens' Hall of Fame winger Guy Lafleur away from a rink, chances are he had a cigarette between his right thumb and forefinger. Mike Bossy, the Hall of Fame sniper who helped the New York Islanders win four straight Stanley Cups, smoked while answering postgame questions from reporters, as E.M. Swift's Sports Illustrated story from May 1983 documents.
  7. Was he a smoker? https://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/guy-lafleur-obituary-1.5766441 The cause of death was not immediately known. However, Lafleur suffered through health issues in the latter stages of his life. In September 2019, he underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery, which was followed by lung surgery two months later. Then, in October of 2020, he endured a recurrence of lung cancer.
  8. And I think Olofsson is more than good. And 80 points? He is making it look easy, and if he keeps doing that, he could be a 35+ goal scorer (easily) and if playing with Tage, Tuch or other top point producers, he could top 80 points. Would not surprise me at all.
  9. Sam is excellent. Sam is a great player. I am in no way saying anything different. Wayne Gretzky wouldn't have had as many points if Kurri, Coffee and Anderson were just average players.
  10. No injury and also playing with better line mates. You think Sam would of had as many points if Asplund was his winger? Not putting down Asplund, but the guys Sam is with in Florida are way better
  11. I, once again, questioned Coach G with him putting VO on Tage's line, but that looks like a great move. VO is a much better passer than I thought. His assist to Dahlin last night was a beautiful play. Donny G was right again. Now that VO has line mates that score a lot I would guess his assist totals begin to rise. It also seems strange that VO is not on top PP unit. I get it, as there is plenty of talent to go around now, and he is on the second unit that gets time, but I'm sure he will be back on top unit at some point.
