Doesn't mean they couldn't all spend a year playing together before moving to prime positions. Would also leave a line of Shinkaruk-McCann-Jensen/Kassian

Gaunce-Horvat-Virtanen would be a big formidable line in a few years

Kids definitely seemed motivated since the WJC ended. Hope he keeps it up, seems like Franchise goalie potential is written all over him.

Lol alright then, you come across as an all knowing cynical douche who rips on people and has no problem calling them turds based on there opinions. So i made an ironic joke about how you miss spelled best into pest, which seems pretty fitting for you. There's been no news of a major injury but your "logic" tells you that's what is must have been, why not just wait for an actual report? instead of throwing up a hail Mary so you can try and rub it into some online message board users face if/when you may happen to be right. Its not even that I dislike, or don't agree with some of your opinions but the way you try and get em across, comes across a bit snarky.

Is there any injuries that can ruin a pest hockey board poster?

Ya'll know me still the same old G, but I been low key. Anyone else think of forget about dre when they started reading about forgetting Gaunce? Lol

I enjoy my Da Vinci greatest investment ever

We get it your names Hedman you like the swedes now would you just stop, and go blow Nylander (smoke) somewhere else. Virtanen had a good game, scored a great goal and is playing a specific role in an international tournament that's very important to Canadians. Can we stop with the Nylander will be a top line center, and Virtanen will be a top 6 winger at best crap. YOU DON'T KNOW THAT!!!! we have 4 good center prospects in Horvat, Mcann, Gaunce and Cassels. I have no concerns about having a "center to replace Henrik" when we have that much depth at the position already. And why would you expect a center not to be good defensively when he's younger just because he's good offensively, So you wanna teach the kid its okay to back check like Kessel or Ovechkin. As long as you score a point a game?

This video makes me wonder how Sanguinetti would do on the big team haha. Gaunce definitely has an NHL caliber shot

Yeah don't expect to much to change, but it is frustrating. Anyways, I could really see Connor using Bo for faceoffs and down low play since his hand will still not be 100%. Anyone who's broken a bone in a joint or extremity knows it takes several months sometimes years to actually feel normal. How strong is McDavid regularily in faceoffs anyways? I've never got to see him play. And faceoffs is the one part of his game you never really hear about.

You know I respect your OPINION but you talk in to many certainties on this site.

But they're alright with Duclair?

Petan will drop back to center more then likely. I'd bet my bottom dollar that we see a line of Fabbri-McDavid-Virtanen if that's what Bobby Mackenzie thinks. Guys usually spot on for the most part. I'd think the 3rd will end up being Ritchie-Petan-Dal Colle or something similar. Even if Virtanen ends up on the 3rd with Petan and Ritchie that could be a very effective line.

Apparently Fabbri and Mcdavid have a history together so that probably plays into it. Bob Mac said something about it on tsn

Hard to get excited for an overager but with him missing a full season in his draft year its probably best he's there. At least he's preforming well, would be awesome for his team if Bennett makes it back and is assigned there.

Seems Bobby Mac thinks Jake will play with Conner @TSNBobMcKenzie IMO, 7 locks up front: Domi-Reinhart-Duclair; Fabbri-McDavid-Virtanen; Petan. That leaves 1 spot at C, 2 at LW and 2 RW plus 13th fwd. (Learning new phone can't properly paste tweet haha)

Doubtful but if they did Jakes backward skating speed might make him ideal. Plus the lack of right shooting dmen, never know. Just can't wait to watch the tourney!

By 18 whole seconds!

Wow can't help but have a huge smile while you watch that lol. Class.

+1 to you, excellent post!

Thats true but that was 4th line vs 4th line. And a message was trying to be sent, but your right. Taking the draw against Duchene flanked by Hank and Radim must have been extremely exciting for Bo. Was Bo in last night, I missed the game any feedback if so?

Gotta think they know its gunna happen, then the adrenaline kicks in and you forget everything. Probably why he kinda smiled when he caught on. Always entertaining to see, and giving him the opening faceoff was just the icing on the cake of class that is WD.

He did the Vancouver hockey blogger on hockeybuzz had a video in today's blog.

He also said he was getting prime minutes, but he wasn't.

They're defenceman who constant match up against the other teams top lines? As opposed to a bottom 6 forward deployed in favourable matchups. And both of them could be better. but we don't also have young first round picks vying for there spot if they continue underperforming. At the end of the day everyone who's saying trade Matthias for Horvat because horvat would do better. Has no idea if that's true. Same goes to those saying send Horvat to junior and play Matthias because he's better. Maybe we should put them on the same team and see who performs better then? Maybe? Anyone?
