Stoner Posted January 1, 2017 Report Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) January 20at AvalancheMcGinn. Ristolainen. O'Reilly. Eichel. Kane. Red light. All five Sabres on the power play touch the puck in quick succession, looking like a Soviet Red Army juggernaut. (1:27 in video) January 26at SenatorsJack Eichel skates his beaver tail off down the right side of the ice and tucks the puck inside the far post for a counterclockwise curly cue thing of beauty.

Stoner Posted January 1, 2017 Author Report Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) February 14AvalancheJack Eichel picks up the puck above the faceoff circle in Hamburg and doesn't stop until he scores from the left dot on Grand Island, almost coast to coast. December 27at WingsJack Eichel (who else?!) excuses himself past Thomas Vanek and stuffs the burrito under the bar, prompting Wings color commentator Mickey Redmond to say a mouthful: "Oh my God!"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ee4Qdp0nko Edited January 1, 2017 by PASabreFan
Randall Flagg Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) This one is touuuuuuuuuuuuuugh. I think the Ottawa wrap-around might jump into the lead for me. Jared Cowen isn't good, but he's 6-5 and 230 lbs. Jack shrugs at him like a curtain that he's passing through carrying a tray of drinks out to his family on the back porch, a Red Sox cap shielding his eyes from a late-August sunset. The "checking" on the Detroit goal reminds me of how Vanek used to play defense, for some reason. The Colorado Eichel goal was beautiful, and I still think Bailey was offsides. Edit: Nope, it was good. Huh. That game in denver was miserable.I'm taking Ottawa. Edit: Look at the play Zemgus makes on Karlsson, no less, right before Jack stuffs it home. EK makes the poke check if Zemgus doesn't tie him up. Edited January 2, 2017 by Randall Flagg

Randall Flagg Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 Your wasting your life in physics! Probably - I don't feel particularly good at it :P

Winston Posted January 2, 2017 Report Posted January 2, 2017 Edit: Look at the play Zemgus makes on Karlsson, no less, right before Jack stuffs it home. EK makes the poke check if Zemgus doesn't tie him up. I've always loved that part of the play. As amazing as Jack's move was, that goal doesn't happen without Zemgus' tie up. An assist that won't go down in the box score, but one I'll remember.
