Player Discussion Brady Tkachuk: Episode 5 - Management Strikes Back

Sens wont get an extra pick if he walks. Why do you hope that I dont understand.

It's really not that hard to understand

They did fine without him this season, dont think it will be any different next year. People that think that San Jose is no good are out to lunch, they had a poor end to the season that team is stacked with or without Karlsson.

If they simply got average goaltending this season they finish second overall.

From your post I thought that you meant a measly 2nd round pick is enough for people to want karlsson to extend with SJ. Regardless, I don't think SJ is that good next year without karlsson.

That is what I meant, next years draft is also very deep. I dont consider 2nd round picks 'measly'. Get all the assets you can, it doesnt make any sense not to.

San Jose is one of the best teams in the league there is no reason to think they wont be good next year.

Dorion will promise Melnyk we will improve again next year... He likely told him that Stone and Duchene resigning would not be a problem either.

Both Tkachuk and White asked to go to worlds... I imagine rat rink will go if he is over his injuries 100%

Chabot will go play for Canada if his foot is good to go (clearance)

Great season, a clean 45 points.

Excellent season. Plus, he finished very strong on his own accord. He also plays a game that extremely few NHLers play and a game that is meant for championships.

This is what got me super excited about him. Obviously I was already loving Brady, but seeing him play just as well, if not better, after Stone left was incredible encouraging. It's not that hard to score 20 goals with Mark Stone but he scored (I think) at an even higher rate after he was traded.

As per TSN1200, Brady has also committed himself to 4 months of offseason training, three of which will be with Gary Roberts.

Next year should be fun.

He should drag White to that with him

 

[JungleBeat]

Half the roster should lol

The best part about Brady is how he finished the season strong. It could have been too easy for him to fade at the end of the season like most young players do (I'm looking at you, Chabot). He also only played 40 games last year, so 71 games is huge for him. Not to mention losing Stone at the TDL.

My god, he's going to be insane next year. I just hope he doesn't bulk up too much and loses speed.

This team as whole needs to work their tails off ,this offseason....I dont expect a huge uptick as far as standings go,but progress needs to be made

Tkachuk committed to 4 months of training with Gary Roberts this off season. He will be much more physically developed coming into next season.

As for the team the main progress we need to see is in playing style and development/emergence of prospects.

LOL. What speed?

Seriously though he is so lanky building some big muscles will only help his explosiveness. He also needs to just flat out work on his skating technique. If he makes significant improvement there and gets stronger he's going to be a beast. A very smart player.

Not a lot of variety there, he'll need to improve his shot to be a consistent 30 goal scorer. He'll be good for 20 though.

He'll get bigger , stronger, better in several areas including his shot .. he's 19. He has already proven 20

His shot is pretty bad. I'm not sure if getting stronger will help that much. Anyways he's a better playmaker so I'll expect a significant increase in assist rather than goals as he grows.

Keith's stats include a few extra games from when he was 19, but this is each of them by some traditional stats in their first full seasons.

The war stat for just this season has 1.2 war for brady , 1.3 for matthew.
