Development camp

(after watching the Pavel Jeny's penalty shot video)
I wish the NHL would adopt a "chaser" for the Shoot outs. It would remove that lame Patrick Kane "I'll come to a stop and wait " crap.

Considering the Wild's Official Twitter account even made it a point to tweet out Tuch's celly specifically, I'd say everyone understood it was a lighter situation and not something you'd do in a real game scenario.

Hockey no fun. Hockey serious business.

Mongo?

im trying not to get too amped about tuch , but man he's the next best thing to having bjugstad on this team. im still shocked he fell to #18.

 

[gphr513]

Tuch's celly was "embarrassing"? Give me a break.

Against an actual opponent? Yeah, probably not something you want to do. It was a fun scrimmage against his future teammates. Watch the green bench while he's skating by, they're giving it right back to him.

 

[DANOZ28]

tuch was just having fun with teammates , now in a real game back in the 80's that would have caused a bench clearer , flashback i miss the 80's!

Geeze how dare Tuch have fun... obviously he hasn't gotten the official training of becoming a typical boring NHL robot yet

 

[Ban Hammered]

I've watched these shootouts at practice for SCSU for years..they do the same stuff when they score and they all give it to each other. It wasn't a game, everyone knew it's for fun, so showboat a little.

It's July !

It's a scrimmage not game 7 of playoffs.

let the boys be boys and have fun.

They got their balls busted all week with off ice workouts and on ice 2x a day.

The u17 USA National camp was better to watch than last night scrimmage.

Obviously, some of these guys took it more serious than others. The guys going back to college ( Lucia, Tuch, Belpedio, Soucy, Petersen and even Rielly ) probably haven't even been on ice much at all between summer school, off ice conditioning, strength training etc.

I wouldn't put to much thought or have any opinion on how these guys looked or anyone for that matter. I'd wait and see who shows up in Sept / Oct.

What about Alex Tuch?

Other than his shoutout goal, how he was? not a lot on review from him other his shoutout goal. For my fantasy ligue, what may be his celling?

thanks

Alex looked really good in the 2nd scrimmage. Every time he stepped on the ice, the ice tilted towards the offensive zone for team white (it helped that Reilly was usually out there too).

Alex's ceiling is absolutely a top line winger.

He made 1 play on Grayson Downing's goal that showed why he was the best player on the ice. He got the puck at the blue line and most guys would have tried to make a pass across to the streaking winger coming down the left side. Instead he left a little drop pass for Downing into space that gave him all day to put a backhand top shelf.
