Jets At The World Hockey Championship

Maybe Telegin's rights now has some trade value to the Jets.

Laine has been playing less ice time than Matthews, has been playing on his wrong wing, and yet is outscoring him badly.

Points/60 mins now favors Laine by 7.1 to 3.4. The arguments in the Laine vs Matthews thread are getting more feeble by the day.

Kicking McDavid's butt, too.

Has Laine ever played on an NHL sized rink? Just wonder how that might affect his game. Close quarters, less open space.

Could be wrong completely, but wouldn't weak skating be exposed even more on the large ice surface?

Good question. Near as I can tell, all of his hockey (including international tourneys) has been played on Olympic-sized rinks.

I feel like that's not going to be a factor for Laine. It's not as though his style is dependent on dipsy-doodling and using the full width of the surface.

It isn't as though his skating is that bad either. It is just the least of his strengths.

His offersheet compensation would likely not be more than a 3rd rd pick.

I see it the opposite way. The ability to move quickly, react quickly in general, is more important when opposing players are in closer proximity.

Getting a 3rd rounder now for Telegin? This is Chevy.

I like that Laine is 4th in shots on goal.

Points are still percentage driven, but they always will be over small samples.

 

[Jimby]

Absolutely!

I thought Finland used hybrid rinks, in between olympic and NHL sized? I could definitely be wrong though.

Scheif scores

 

[SensibleGuy]

A beauty by Chef!

 

[JetsWillFly4Ever]

Scheif with a beaut

If Burmistrov came back, maybe Telegin does too.

I'll pass.

If he got another shot I'd like to see Telegin with Scheif only because they were linemates in Barrie - along with Pearson.

I was hoping Pearson would fall to us in the second round but LA wisely picked him up.

NHL: 26 m x 60 m
Sochi 2014: 30 m x 60 m
Finland: 28-30 m x 58-60 m (Yeah, it really is not standardized, smallest ones are 28x58, biggest ones 30x60)

Btw, today's game was Laine's 95th game of the season. He has missed a total of 14 games due to injuries.

Mark Stone is one hell of a hockey player. I'd give my left nut to have him riding Scheifele's wing for the next 10 years.
