SaintPatrick33 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 The boys played hard tonight, what an exciting game. Win or Lose, this is what I want to see. Horvat taking down someone after the whistle Dorsett being involved all game long Bartkowski showing some grit pushing a guy down We skated and were hard on the forecheck.

Gstank29 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Willie is soo stubborn it's annoying. Hopefully a bad season will make him change... Edit: I think him as a coach but he needs to be more flexible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing the kids in the line up it is easier to see how our vets have lost speed and struggle to keep up. I can stomach Alex because of his effort and passion, Higgins makes me scream with his casual, lazy fly bys. How can a guy who is basically a third line player survive in this league without ever playing the body or going to the hard areas? He's the team's Santa.

I believe the Comets boys can replace at least 1/3 of the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does need work on his pivots, which isn't a fatal flaw, but his foot speed is NHL adequate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, he would haved nailed his butt to the bench. Willie needs to be shipped out on the same bus as Higgins....throw Weber in the luggage compartment McCann should have been a shooter...

newgm Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Good hard earned win. As mentioned by others, it was surprising that McCann didn't get a chance in the shootout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaHoneyBadger Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 If I was Aquilini, I would call JB with a suggestion. Waive Higgins and call up Gaunce. I would then suggest dealing Burrows and bring up Shink. I would rather watch fast, young efforting players struggle than slow old players struggle. I would also disappear Weber and let Pedan play his spot. If we are going to struggle, let's get the young guys who care get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The increased physicality was a welcome sight indeed. Nice to see the team realize that they aren't shrinking violets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckleheads fan Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Sorry for all the typos, my tablet hates this board. If the Pedan has to work on his pivots, then this is not the level to do it. He's going to look like a turnstile out there, and everybody's going to go wide on him. Again that's why Willie has not exposed him at this level. He's only here in case of an emergency. Weber obviously must be a far better skater. He's played in one game as a winger, obviously not ready for this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
