Iron Crotch

What do you guys (who have seen him play) think of CJ Smith? Could he offer anything at the NHL level?

The one team that cleaned up in that relatively weak draft is Nashville. Best drafting team in hockey. They got Kevin Fiala, Vladislav Kamenev who they flipped for Kyle Turris, Viktor Arvidsson (absolute steal in the 4th round), Jack Dougherty who would be an NHL defenseman now if the Preds weren't so loaded on D, ....

I recall being about the only one around here who favored Draisaitl back in the day. I backed down because everyone around here was enamored with Samson's "hockey IQ"... which at the NHL level seems to translate to "not physical, not fast, doesn't score." :P (it was a weak draft overall)

Obviously Jack had a great game. But, we're a one line team (Jack + Evander + whomever you put next to them). That's too easy to defend in this league.

Risto hasn't been good tonight.

3-on-3. Should be Jack vs. Skinner in the 5 minute OT.

Nalia has the sickle cell. Poor Nalia.

I don't like the wave in a 4-4 game with 2 minutes left. But at least the fans are making some noise.

Chad looks a little shaky. We need to limit the chances against.

Nope. On St Charles uptown (maybe 2 miles west of the Quarter).

This has nothing to do with anything, but the Buffalo Bills bar down here in New Orleans is called Fat Harry's.

What the hell is going on in this game? Either way, this is better than the usual 2-1 snoozefest that we play.

You were saying!!!

Jack hits double-digits on the year. Goal #2 of the game and #10 on the season.

Oh ... we're not good at the game of hockey.

Ah.... we just don't like winning games....

...well that didn't last long...

I saw that. He is lucky he didn't get cut there.

I disagree with Dan Dunleavy. Reinhart has been a non-factor as usual.

The second for the entire defense corp all year... which is pretty awful. :(

Goal! An ultra-rare defenseman goal! That never happens.

Jackie!

Blah.

So many empty seats. Fans are voting with their wallets finally.
