[M2Beezy]

Both SHOULD play tomorrow lets hope it happens and see what BB and Briesy can do

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Really interested to see Brisebois

 

[Southern_Canuck]

Brisebois wearing #5 and is in the lineup against Sweden.

Last shift he was in deep on offence, and later made an unsuccessful pinch... looks very confident.
Won the puck in a board battle against a Swede in his off-corner in the defensive zone, and calmly passed it to his partner to begin an offensive rush.

Gord Miller: "The Red Wings have always believed defense is the most important position in hockey... they've had some greats... Lidstrom... Rafalski..." (awkward silence as he tries to come up with more names but fails)

okay, gord.

Any of em Brisebois related?

 

[Southern_Canuck]

A number of gaffes resulted in Swede goals...
1) Tight screen in front of Hart
2) Hart overplays the passer and Foote lost his stick
3) Well, that was embarrassing (Hart goes down early, and Eriksson comes out from corner and scores easily
4) Strange deflection off point shot after poor Canada defensive clearing attempt

Box score

[Southern_Canuck]

Brisebois (I was incorrect he is #5) actually seems to be playing right-side --- just got off a dangerous point shot, and then another from the slot after a scramble... both nearly resulted in a goal (on with Cirelli's line)

He's really pushing on offence.

[Josepho]

seems like i didnt miss much

 

[Southern_Canuck]

Jeesh - it's been about 10 min since Brisebois hit the ice... wasn't used as they had two powerplays in a row... I guess he is PK only for this coach!

[Southern_Canuck]

Finally gets a shift, and promptly in a 25 second board battle in his own zone... Canada comes away with puck.

Brisebois with a wrister way wide from the point.

[Southern_Canuck]

Brisebois was listed as a 7th D for this game, and is getting that kind of ice time...

Lauzon - Spencer
Vande Sompel - Foote
Bean - Fabbro
Brisebois

In his limited ice, he has looked decent - definitely looks for offensive opportunities... don't know if he has a chance to make the team based on how the coach is using the players...

Brisebois wearing #5 and is in the lineup against Sweden.

Clearly sending the message to the Swedes, "I am as good as Lidström". [/HFBoards comparison logic]

 

[Zombotron]

Tyson Jost is gonna be a special player for the Avalanche

I never put too much stock into this event.

How Brisebois plays in the Q to start the season and the pre tournament camp (if he makes it) are much bigger factors.

 

[Ryp37]

Boeser is on a line with Bellows and Laczynski today

 

[Southern_Canuck]

14 min into the 3rd before Brisebois gets a shift. Uneventful - includes another extended board battle, and not much else.

[Zombotron]

FWIW: Craig Button hypes up Marcus Davidsson as a first-round pick for 2017

 

[DL44]

Your reports are very good S_C.. thanks.

 

[VanJack]

As a third-rounder, Brisebois will have to be twice as good as any of the other d-men in order to receive serious consideration....he'll get the 'Frankie Corrado treatment' in all likelihood...seems to me he outplayed half the starting roster of d-men in one or two evaluation camps and still got the axe...I think sometimes that Hockey Canada doesn't want to make the NHL scouting community look bad by deleting a high draft pick in favor of a late-rounder.

 

[Southern_Canuck]

Boeser wearing #19 - after a couple of pretty uneventful shifts, makes a good pass to the point from a corner puck battle, but point shot is blocked - on the ensuing play eventually ends up -1 as Laczynski can't get back to cover the Finn shooter... 1-0 Finland.

[WTG]

Boeser with a dominant shift.

 

[Southern_Canuck]

After a lazy offside, Boeser gets a good chance off a rebound... then later controls play off the left wing and gets the puck to Bellows for a dangerous shot.
