  1. Tryamkin deserved to be a star tonite against the Wild. Happy to see a Defencemen play great Defence all game.
  2. Hope to see GB on the Canadian Team. Kid looked great for us in Camp, mobile, fearless, smart.. sure to lock in with us in the near future,. May look terrific with Joulevi.
  3. Love it!! We had nothing like this last year. ... time for lidster to get those be guys practising one timers .. Pedan was 104mph in skills last year,. would like to see what Gudbranson Tryamkin and Hutton can push the pedal at.. and use it effectively.
  4. Dropping to one knee might be the move to make Boudrias, at least his goaltender has the chance to see over him and the play or shot to be made. It also covers his own huge 5 hole gap created if he was standing, and blocking the goalies vision. In any clips I've seen of him in the KHL, he has had this move, but on the larger ice surface its less effective in the D zone because the play around the net is not as compressed, and their is more gap on player coverage. I don't mind the knee drop, it takes away the bottom half of the net +, and makes the shooter or passer think twice about the puck changeing the timing for coverage elsewhere. As you said, he does get up quick. Powerful young man, getting better every week. Any idea of his hit ratio? Last I heard it was something like 30 hits in 8 games.
  5. His speed and size are deceptive.. thats 6'8 and 250 lbs moving like its 6'2 and 210.. great timing and judgment, is sure to be squared up to finish the play. rookie year?
  6. ... don't forget we have Rodin , alf
  7. “Nik apologizes when he takes a penalty,” Vancouver Canuck assistant coach Doug Lidster said Monday about Nikita Tryamkin. ... Dosen't that fast-track his Canadian passport?
  8. The Liberty Game .. DECEMBER 3rd - Kadri - Reilly- Martin•
  9. Puck Luck... I think the way to change it is to have a full practice using tennis balls instead of pucks..
  10. Almost seems like there is an ironic resemblance... maybe just the eyes ?
  11. There is no way Nik gets looked over next time at the Worlds or Olympics.
  12. He is intimidating Alf,. Love his half step "pump" fake when chasing guys into the corner for the puck. He also slows down on the race-chase to be sure he has control over the contact.. something others, like Tanev, could learn from to save from injuries.
  13. Missed it Steirlitz,. hope he played well, I was impressed with his play in prospects camp.. moves very well, good shot, and likes the physical part of the game.
  14. Kids playing a complete game, and starting to feel comfortable enough to find and use his strengths. Great release and shot.. still think he could mimick a game similar or better than Naslund's. Keep it up Granlund !
  15. Ben is probably suffering through the rumour mill in this city right now.
  16. Heard today that Tryamkin has 25 hits in 7 games ! That puts him on pace for 292.74 hits in a full season!! Does this qualify him for his own "hit counter" on the home score clock?
  17. .. tonite, Full moon, Buffalo, sign of great luck.
  18. He prefers the right side... apparently Sbisa goes both ways too ..
  19. Building from the back end >out.. the good ones do this.. add Pedan, and thenJoulevi and Brisboise in a couple years and we have a full tool box.
  20. .... I vote we Nik-Name Nikita.. "LeBron"
  21. Thought you were against trading Tanev not long ago? I was hoping we would move him last TDL.. Chris is targeted every game with us,. More injuries to come whilst with us.
  22. Welcome to the Dark Side Boudrias ..
  23. Jake is better off away from this mess at hand.. better times to come.
  24. Sexy man for sexy men, Alf. I think I'm going to buy Tryamkins jersey in the same size he wears.. being 6'2" myself, the sleeves should drop below my knees. Any updates on Rodin?
  25. Going back into his own corners for the puck,. If he is challenged, he does a quick half-step fake to hit the challenger that backs that player off the play immediately. One night, someone will try to stand their ground and end up looking like sauced pizza dough stuck on the ceiling.
