I must be the only one not gulping huge drafts of the Chytil Kool-Aid right now. That's no commentary at all on whether he's highly skilled or talented, or what he may eventually be. But right now, from what I've seen, he spends way too much time standing around in the offensive zone waiting for other guys to get him the puck, and way too much time in the defensive end standing around somewhat near his check without actually covering anyone effectively. And the team is 0-3. So... tough love. Got no problem with that.

Did anyone notice that Chytil looked like he was sobbing after they had that too many men penalty? I know he's a young guy and he did take that hit to his noggin but to come to tears on an NHL bench? He needs to mentally toughen up. The AHL might be the best for him for a bit.

It seems like he gets hit in the head and breaks down in tears literally once every game lmao. Whats going on with him.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Draftkings still has the Sharks to win the cup at +1150. Might wanna get on that in case they beat us 10-0 tonight.

 

[LaffyTaffy]

People need to realize that Howden is being rewarded, not Chytil being punished. Chytil and Howden have both been a couple of the brightspots of this slow start.

 

[BringBackLibertys]

Stop giving out NMCs to defensemen. Staal is worthless.

I think we did, and that is why we traded McD, etc, etc. That is our past, Gorton is making it pretty clear that it is not our future. He didn't even give that to Shatty with the money discount we got.

Coach yelled at him for that and used some rough words. Quinn's eyes could kill, that's how mad he was. Chytil can't handle this, not yet anyway. But he's still just a teenager.

My hobby is to berate and yell at victims of unsolicited and unwarranted violence and bodily harm as well. I set up at the playground with a box of triscuits and wait for some kid to fall from the monkey bars and get right in his face and tell him how worthless he is and try to make him cry.

Someone is getting their first points of the season in the standings tonight.

Not necessarily.

I think it's just a natural reaction to getting yelled at for a good deal of people. A Google search will bring up a lot of results about crying when getting yelled at. I'm not sure about the actual biological mechanism, but even if he doesn't feel overly bad about it, it might be an involuntary reaction, especially if Quinn is being a bit gruff. He'll get better once he gets used to play at the NHL level. The kid just turned 19.

Hell, when I started a job when I was 23, I could feel tears start to well up when I got yelled at about an error during my second week (which turned out to not actually be an error--Screw you, Aaron).

But thinking about it, aren't most guys who join the Army around 19? Then you have to deal with a sergeant who is yelling in your face what piece of crap you are. I guess some are mentally tougher than others...

 

[Larrybiv]

Thinking that DeAngelo is finally going to get off his schneid. His confidence should be good going in......it's his time. Gonna bury once and for all that he should be IN, game in and game out. Sit out anyone else that deserves to sit the bench.

Are you suggesting that 19-year olds who join the army never cry?

That's the whole point...if you as a recruit break down mentally you'll receive the following message: No thanks, go home. You're useless as a soldier.

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

I feel as though Quinn should dial it back a bit. We get it, you're the boss. Maybe he won't make an example of anyone tonight, but I'm not holding my breath. A nice easy win would be good

A mental break down and a 19yr old taking it hard because he made a mistake are two completely different things. Recruits cry and get down on themselves during boot camp or training. Most of them get back up and become stronger. They don't get instantly kicked out of training. If someone has a mental breakdown then that's something you have to handle differently.

 

[Maliks PlusMinus]

Crying does not equate to breaking down mentally

Damn, your military experience was really different to mine (and seemingly different to most of the US service personnel I worked with)...

 

[Larrybiv]

Haven't really thought about it.

What does that have to do with the idea that we can't ice more than one?

Whether it's Quinn or management, I think it's pretty clear that Shattenkirk and ADA are competing with each other. I think it's also pretty clear that Staal has to be convicted of murder to sit.

Well then he blew our last shot. Should've taken out AV, would have killed 2 birds with 1 stone.

That is also not the way it works in Brazil. If only crying could get you free from the mandatory service...

Honest question: Is this from personal experience? Because it sounds more like what happens in a movie

 

[Larrybiv]

I am listening to the Spittin Chiclets podcast with Adam Oates and he is currently discussing how so many players bobble and mishandle the puck and how if there is a D to D pass and then a pass is made in someones feet that is a major mistake. Interesting that we are seeing that pretty regularly with Staal

Guess that's what playing fast means. Rather have no D to D, with a bad pass in neutral, that goes the other way. Pushing even a bad pass past their blue line forces them to regroup and maybe they do a D to D.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

HF psychologists out in full force in this bitch!

Give it a rest guys. For all you know he may have been tired.

This is basically what JT Miller did here except he used onion rings instead.

Not impressed.

No comment on that, let's just forget about it and focus on the game tonight.
