I would be shocked if they did. It is true that throwing your arms around doesn't make you a good nusician. But moving your fingers on the strings as fast as this guy does requires a very high skill level. I don’t play a guitar, but have one, and can strum a few notes. This young guy is friggin’ brilliant! I’ve watched his video several times just see see his fingers move. He’s incredibly gifted, and (clearly) extremely hard working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon man, he's not just 'throwing his arms around' for show and the piece he's playing is 'overly hard'. I am sure you seen the 'this drummer is in the wrong gig' vid, now that is flaying your arms around for show. I’m not saying he sucks. I’m saying he is over playing it up. Much like Travis Barker playing drums, or a goalie doing a giant windmill on an easy glove save. What he is is doing is being done by a lot of people. It’s nothing new, and it’s not overly impressive to experienced musicians. Take some time to google it. There are some amazing artists doing the same style and it won’t take long to realize what I’m saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like running the 100 in under 10 seconds. It’s not unique, but it’s sure as heck in a very select group. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nergish Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Maybe he's more Marchand-like than we initially thought? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Well...I guess the positive is, we know he won't be a door mat... Looks like he thought the guy was going to be coming sooner and further over...but yeah, that's going to cost him some games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Gordie Howe action That guy was looking to make a play on the puck not run Hoglander. Dude dropped like a sack of potatoes. Now he's out and probably concussed. I am not sure that's a good way to let guys know they can't run you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly how players (especially smaller guys) create space. Get the elbows up, just like Gordie. Hogs just earned himself a couple extra seconds with the puck on his stick. Guys will think twice about going in on him. We want our players to be mean. It's even better when that meanness comes from our skilled guys. I'd like to see Bess start doing this.

Pronger (definitely a great player and proven winner) purposely took suspensions to create a persona that would give him extra time and space. Duncan Keith, who we all hate, is a dirty player. Yes, I want my players to be dirty as heck. I want them to give out cheap elbows, eye gouge, and do what ever it takes to win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the video right above (2:20 long) we can see multiple players trying to catch him with open ice hits but he managed to slip away from all of them. Maybe he's had enough of players trying to take his head off and decided to do something about it. Can't blame him one bit, and I'd love if all our players had some of that edge. Maybe now guys will think twice before trying to lay him and cause him to have a concussion. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Marchand did that to Hughes you'd be okay since he'd be protecting himself???? I mean if you're fine with our players doing it you must be fine with it happening to our players right? 2 minutes ago, Vanuckles said: Hoglander doesn't know that.

I don't care if people are trying to hit you all game if you have to respond with a vicious elbow then you're just as bad if not worse. It's alright for him to send a message at someone else's expense?? That's a piss poor excuse. You can see the instant regret of Hoglander right after. He knew he &^@#ed up. The guy dropped instantly only trying to stick check Hog. No way to protect himself and see that coming. Got the full blunt of that elbow. That's not a hockey play. There are ways to counter physical play and that's not one of them. If that happened to anyone of our players nobody would be fine with it and nobody would think it was a hockey play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our guys need to get their gloves off first. We saw Bess just get concussed because of a bad check into the back. Hockey is a violent game. We want our guys to be more violent than the other teams.
