Virt is gonna bounce back whereas I see Dal colle fading more. But he's done more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck_In_Paradise Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I think this is Jake's year. From being not ready mentally his first year and not being ready physically last year, he just wasn't prepared for the season. Now that he knows what to expect, I think he is going to surprise people. I have to, thinking negative thoughts is just not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) Recovers from a bump, Anyone know how much this is? 45+45+22+10 on each side even close? I don't lift, so just guessing lol That would be 240ish + the bar Edited August 23, 2017 by Derp... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing in the AHL last year was the best thing that could have happened to him. He knows EXACTLY what Green wants from him. I have no doubt in my mind that he'll make the roster this season. I really don't see him as far off as others do. He's very much on track and there's still lots of time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's trying to get stronger. That's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, my guess is he uses most of this season to hone his game and develop his offence and then he should be ready to fill in for injuries/trades. Though he does have a lot of competition for only a few spots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the weight wobbles a bit, he easily stabilized it. That's strength. Way to go Jake! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially on a decline bench. Looks like he's trying to get stronger. That's good. He's probably doing around 275 in the clip (45+45+20+5) on each side plus the bar. Decline actually makes it a bit easier to push the weight, less strain on the shoulders and all. But it is hard to stabilize which is why he almost drops the bar and his feet are all over the place. Still really encouraging that that he his lifting that much weight. Guys spend years training just to hit 225x1 rep. Hopefully this translates to him pushing guys around on the ice 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put it this way - pretty clear his shoulder isn't an issue at all mentally for him as no way any one does their body-weight plus on a decline if they don't trust their labrum. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know shoulders and shoulder injuries pretty well and know how hard overcoming the mental part can be - and this would to me like a guy not thinking about his shoulder.

Uh, OK. I respond to people who make responses to what I post. I doubt I spend any more time on this thread than any other but I will keep track of it if you like. Oh, and I think I do know my own posting better than anyone - don't you know your better than anyone else too? I know you are using English words but it is like when I was learning German, the words together all mean something on their own but they way you have them organized has it difficult for me to understand what point you are trying to make.
