Sean Couturier Part III

[hatcher]

Bull****. He isn't slow. Slow players don't get back to defend against every top line in the league as incredibly well as he does.

Nor does good checking take him out of it. He's strong on the puck, routinely outmuscles guys to maintain control and set up players, and is damned hard to move from the net which is a big reason why he's so good around the crease.

"Good" is selling short the work he's doing all over both zones.

I said he's doing good. let's see what happens.

He doing great but he still has hands of stone when passing the puck and shooting. Good to see him step up.

Your brain must be made of stone because he already has 18 goals.

Woot.

Although I didn’t post in this thread, I was all for trading Coots for the right package. Thank god I’m not the GM and I’m here to eat crow. Couturier has been phenomenal, this was the player we all hoped we drafted.

The mods should re-open that thread.

I don't think he'll actually sustain this pace, nor does he need to, but Coots for 40 goals would be the biggest middle finger ever. Pacing for 42 at the moment.....

"Sean Couturier, the Flyers first 40 goal scorer and best pure shooter since Jeff Carter and Simon Gagne before him. And he did it without ever lifting a puck."

There is a difference and that is pure shooter to what coots scores. He's doing great.

I'm sure that Couts is between three Selke Trophy finalists NOW.

I'm praying that he will score 30 goals, it would be f***ing great for him.

He's great as a 3rd line C. LOL!

WHOA, HEY NOW!! It's really hard on his baby wrists, but Couturier can definitely lift the puck.

That is a classic thread.

People were right,meh was removed from the #2PP. Guess he was not the issue like some kept saying.

 

[Ghosts Beer]

I think Hextall recognized all along how valuable Couturier is. Though I don’t think he foresaw *this* level of offense.

 

[GapToothedWonder]

40 goals would be amazing. The best possible way for Coots to dunk on the haters.

And when certain posters with no ability to actually recognize hockey talent speak up about other players everyone should just post links to thus thread.

 

[Tripod]

Don't worry, they will be back if Couts has a down year next year saying:

1 year wonder
Fluke year
Rode Giroux's coat tails
Etc...

Of course it's funny that lots of the Couts haters, were also saying Giroux was finished and a cap dump.

Love it. Thanks for that, I actually forgot about that thread among all the shit we have heard about Couts the past few how ever many months

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

We should have traded him for bishop when we still had a chance.

 

[Curufinwe]

Or Bernier, right Boxscore?

 

[deadhead]

Funny how a lot of Couts supporters think Hextall is screwing up by encouraging his offensively skilled prospects to become two way players because it might stifle their creativity - sure ruined Couts, didn't it?

God damn, you're all sorts of rattled tonight.

 

[Adam Warlock]

Do you guys think Coots wouldve had a shot at making team Canada if NHLers could play in the Olympics?

I imagine itd be tough because he would be fighting for a center spot...but the year he is having I think hed have a case to make it over a guy like Getzlaf or Bergeron.

 

[Striiker]

Where?

Yeah, I'm gonna need someone to find me a post where people are against prospects being good defensively.

Hahaha....so we should ignore that he was already elite defensively in Jr and proved it as a rookie?

Seriously, you are falling apart tonight with your comments.
