Does anyone know the quality of the blues’ roster though? Did doan and Geekie have a great game against nhl players or scrubs?
Combined doan and geekie have about 12 games of pro experience themselves. Yes this is against the B squad.Does anyone know the quality of the blues’ roster though? Did doan and Geekie have a great game against nhl players or scrubs?
Doan has shown himself to an absolute puck hound recently. Dogged, determined puck pursuit.B squad opposition or not, you can only play the team that’s iced against you. Nothing says “Take me seriously” like a hat trick. What I want to know is if Doan’s off the puck play in all 3 zones is NHL rookie caliber.
Our guys Smith and Keleman lost a close one to NHL players. I'll leave it at that.Does anyone know the quality of the blues’ roster though? Did doan and Geekie have a great game against nhl players or scrubs?
Are we gonna get any video's from todays game? I'd really like to see Doan's hattie and Geekie's shorty
Geekie has a hell of a backhand. I believe that's the second backhanded go he has scored this preseason. You see why he was considered a top 5 pick his draft year with some of these highlights. He can get lost a bit in the shuffle of our large prospect pool, but I feel we are all not respecting what kind of ceiling he has.
I went to about half the ASU home games this year. I've never seen him display quick hands like this. I never felt like he had the elusiveness I've seen this preseason. He seems to be always in the right spot at the right time, whether that is open space for a shot, or where he needs to be for board battles.Doan has made really outstanding strides in the last year. He’s in a group of first call ups from Tucson.
Geekie will go back. The offense is a nice show but that’s not really a spot that needs work. Honestly he just needs time to grow into his frame. Consistency work too.
Doan and Geekie are playing good the way it sounds, but this training camp is a bit different than others because of who they are playing against. It is all trending in the right way, but for the most part they are playing among peers. Guenther is starting slow but I believe it's his spot to lose on the big club. The real training camp start now.I had a feeling Guenther was gonna end up in Tucson to begin the year. Didn’t think Doaner would be someone I would’ve replaced him with in my napkin roster formation haha
Can we wait with all these compliments until they play against NHL players. Sure it's nice to see what they are doing, surprising really, but the competition has not been there. Geekie will be going back to junior, and with Doan, his play during the rest of training camp will decide that, but I would bet Tucson.Ok this is going to be a more competitive camp than I had expected what with Doan and Geekie making a serious push.
Yea, common thought is that Geekie isn’t ready but his play in camp will speak for itself.
Take three guesses, the first two don't count. As far as I can tell, looking at the roster, most of the Blues NHL roster did not play. Regardless, the play of Doan and Geekie has to be big confidence booster for these two.Does anyone know the quality of the blues’ roster though?

You're not a realist, you're a party pooper. Every morning it's a bunch of posts of you either downplaying good things or saying no to other posts lol.Doan and Geekie are playing good the way it sounds, but this training camp is a bit different than others because of who they are playing against.

No, I'm a realist, not a party pooper. Sure it's nice to see the kids do good, but let's not do cart wheels before they are earned. I'm pulling for these kids as much as anyone.You're not a realist, you're a party pooper. Every morning it's a bunch of posts of you either downplaying good things or saying no to other posts lol.
You often poo poo others ideas and work and often don’t offer your own. It’s actually the origin of the internet word troll. The word has changed over time to basically mean prankster or inciter of pointless controversy. But it started to describe how those kinds of posts. Like the troll under the bridge. It’s not contribution. Not constructive criticism or thoughtful critique. Just dismissive naysaying. Not backed up by any evidence or expressed ideas. No counterpoints provided.

You always get pissy when someone doesn't agree with your point of view. Grow up.Not correct. You often (always?) poo poo others ideas and work and usually don’t offer your own (never?).
