Made my day! Malatesta scores!

 

[Cyclones Rock]

Congrats Malatesta on NHL goal #1!!!!!!

Sweet move and a nice snipe. No cheapie.

Good shot there from Silly

Heard the latest puck rakerspodcast and Hedger said he could see silly becoming a mold of Boone Jenner. Second line/ top 6 center. Not sure I agree but would be nice

McDonagh would have been such a good pickup 2 years ago when he chose not to waive to us. Shame

Curious your thoughts on whether Silly of Voronkov has the higher upside?

Upside is probably Silly but I am not sure he’ll ever hit his upside. Both are safe bets to be good contributors though.

What’re your thoughts.

I like Sillinger’s energy and aggressiveness but I like Voronkov’s size, hands and clever passing even more. I also think he’ll be the better goal scorer.

Voronkov's hockey sense is much better than I anticipated, while Sillinger is low end, especially with passing. Then you add in Voronkov's physical advantage, the size and reach. I think Voronkov, if he could play a few more shifts per game, basically would be a 2C already. I don't think Sillinger's upside is that high.

I don’t believe Burnette could have performed miracles with this team, but he sure would have been a good hire.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Tex converts a breakaway, not a Jackets’ forte. Good for him!

 

[VABUCK]

I was worried Tex was going to pass!

 

[Cyclones Rock]

But he drove a golf cart a few hundred yards after a few drinks and a cop with nothing to do made an arrest. The guy had just won a Presidents Trophy with Florida and the CBJ "brain trust" thought that a mothballed Babcock would be the better choice.

Sillinger has grown on me. I think that he's a glue player. Possibly a second liner but maybe just a very good bottom 6er. I think he'll have a long NHL career. I'll have to give Jarmo a good deal of credit for keeping him up in the NHL during these lost seasons. I think he's a much better player for it.

Voronkov has a very nice touch for a big man. Doesn't play like a big man most of the time unfortunately. Don't see him as a top line center. Probably a more skilled player than Sillinger but Cole has plenty of time to refine his skill set.

I also think it's important to realize that Sillinger is still 20 while Voronkov is 23.

Nashville PP just pressed in tight, constantly threatening to score.

He was never really an option because once the Nashville job became open, that’s where he wanted to go. If I recall right, he was interviewed here, and then Nashville job became open, and it was over.

Another playoff team just taking the CBJ to the woodshed.

 

[Cujorulesdtown9]

This team is just done, just dragging to end this season

 

[NotWendell]

The Fix is in!

 

[NotWendell]

The box score will make this game look more competitive than it really was.

And you looked at Florida roster and who was the coach after? Just don't change the system. Conversely, look at the Panthers play in the PO.

McDanforth with a good game

Made my day! Malatesta scores!

wtf I missed it

 

[Cowumbus]

Seemed like 67-17-64 were on the ice for every goal for and against (at least from watching highlights).
