What's the most goals allowed in a game, 12 or 13, right? If we lost 14-2 I wonder if that would do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB3 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 team is playing well tonight and I’m not trying to be a debbie downer, but what does kuokkonen bring? he’s not particularly big, fast, strong, or skilled. He seems to want to play a finesse game but his hands aren’t even NHL-quality. He’s usually in position-ish on defense but he doesn’t have the ability or seemingly the desire to actually make a play when he’s positioned to do that.

I thought maybe he was another Bratt-like player, but that's not the case at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB3 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Jack Hughes was always going to be that electric forward who racks up a ton of points on speed and hockey sense alone. If he’s added an elite NHL shot to his arsenal? He might just be the best forward in franchise history one day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDfan1711 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Jack Hughes is a star. I could really see him and Nico being the next Marchand/Pastrnak duo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Ottawa Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) This is insane. Canes are top three team in the league and we are blasting them. Makes zero sense. Edit: I totally missed they are playing a rookie goalie. Now I understand Edited January 23 by Rob_Ottawa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean beating Jack LaFontaine who has 1 NHl game played and, quite literally, a .333 save percentage (.333!!!!!!!!!!!!!), is a lot to be proud of. Anyone who can do that should clearly have their jobs and careers extended. Pat LaFontaine would have faired better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
