Speculation: 2021 Roster Discussion Part II

[Leonardo87]

Fowler and Drysdale are both in tonight as well. Relieved Fowler is good to go.

This is a game that they need to win. Yeah I’m all for the better lottery pick but rather see other teams like NJ win so they can win some games also. Good to hear about Fowler who gets heat around here but he is a very valuable part of this D core.

If they get a PP tonight, hopefully, run the unit of Drysdale, Zegras, Comtois, Rakell and Terry for like 1 and half mins.

I wasn't #EtemNextCrosby, but Etem is the one prospect crush I had that I don't want to talk about. Salivated over his junior stats without actually checking whether he could play hockey or not if he couldn't just physically manhandle other players with his skating.

For me, it’s Peter Holland. I honestly thought he was at worst going to be a 2nd line center. So don’t feel too bad about yourself

We all miss on players, that's the fun of predicting.

Max Jones is Emerson Etem.

So I should get a jones jersey too?

Yeah I had hopes for him as well. I’m not sure how much he enjoyed playing hockey. I think once he made it to the NHL it was clear he had a pretty vanilla skillset to go along with poor intensity.

there was one poster here, snarktacular, I think who was no fan of Holland right after he was drafted and snark ended up being spot on when many others, myself included, were fairly high on Holland.

Just got season tickets again for the first time in a couple years... Can't miss Zegras Calder winning season.

Same. I remember being adamant he was going to be better than Bonino. Man was I wrong there.

Any talk about the World Championship in Latvia coming up after the season? Hoping US invites Zegras, Terry, Gibson. Canada invites Drysdale? In past years they typically will take a few younger guys

Even Comtois for Canada.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Even Comtois for Canada.

Thought about this the other day, seems like something that we very well could see.

I thought we won the pronger trade cause we got sbisa

Henrique and Comtois will both play for Canada.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Henrique and Comtois will both play for Canada.

Any word on the team's American players like Zegras, Shattenkirk, Fowler, Zegras, Terry, etc.?

 

[FiveHoleTickler]

No word as of yet. Would not be surprised if Fowler declined as he was the only player on the team to dress in every game. He also lead the team in ice time (min. 2o games) and he might be dealing with an injury sustained last week, although he did return the next game so it might not be serious.
