[GDT] 2023 NHL All-Star Game
grumpyone replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
I understand and the more I think about it the more I don't agree with it. But the NHL is ALWAYS looking for gimmicks. -

I do believe that he's found the right flex for a stick. -

[GDT] 2023 NHL All-Star Skills Competition
grumpyone replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
worst skills comp yet !!! I do like all the kids on the ice. fastest skater - why are the nets 20 ' from the boards... that's a shorter lap. breakaway challenge was cringe worthy... not even the slightest bit entertaining. tender tandem... took too long. you could tell neither the tender nor the shooters were trying ( except for the ladies) splash dunk - this was ok for novelty. par 4 golf - I really liked this one. but could've had more 'golfers' accuracy - good as always. EXCEPT they doted on Mcdoofus' record...ahem... Daniel Sedin hold the record @ 7.3 second 4 for 4 ( not the casually mentioned 8.4 ) oh, and much prefer the styrofoam targets. hardest shot - good as usual. Congrats to Petey. but what was with the speeds not being the same as shown on the screen ?It showed Petey's hardest @ 92 and they after announced it @ 103 . Should've invited the top 5 draft picks to compete in the skills. Would be an awesome showcase for them. Would love to see a hardest wrist shot event and a slapshot accuracy event. -
[Rumour] Nikita Tryamkin eyeing NHL return
grumpyone replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
first question to him/his agent: what dollar amount are we talking about? anything over $1.5 and I hang up. I'd possibly do a 1.5 for 3 years, but no more. would he be willing to do a physical first, before signing? I ain't signing no out of shape pig. -

the event that I'd like to see is a d-man accuracy slapshot one. slapshots from the blue line at targets in the net plus a couple of 'sticks' set out for deflections. -

face off challenge is not an event -
so, you're sayin' there's a chance?
-
from what I've read if it weren't for the covid/russian aggression he was the only one that 'could've' unseated Bedard from the number 1 pick.
-
and what if that Russian kid, Mishkev, is still available @ 13 pick( islander one)? He's signed to the KHL till 2025, but he'll be NHL ready after that and under 25 too.
