GDT: Game 27: Predators @ Coyotes - 6PM - FSAZ

[Muppet]

Well, whatever defensive blemishes DeAngelo has, he certainly makes up for it with the puck. He's always going to be a high risk high reward player, so attempting to turn him into the perfect two-way defenseman won't get you anywhere.

 

[Grimes]

Well Duclair might not be the best sniper on this team anymore. Man I'm so glad we didn't give up on Perlini like so many of you wanted.

If Keller can't convert to a C we are going to have too many LW.

 

[SniperHF]

Pretty discombobulated at the end of that period. Good thing it ended.

Can we just try him with OEL for a game if Murphy is out? It should give us an idea if someone like Dumba would be a good fit for OEL too.

 

[Grimes]

Why can't Perlini have a blaring cockney accent?

Oh I'd love to see DeAngelo with OEL. It would take so much pressure off OEL, which is exactly what he needs.

...because us Guildfordians speak the queens english...he just does it with a Canadian twist!

Great to see him get his first NHL goal. My loyalties will be divided on Monday, the one time I'll be happy to see someone score on the pens.

 

[Palmer2Fitz]

Haha so many people wanted to give up on him in September and October.

At the draft I didn't know much about this kid but I usually trust HBK and he was really high on Perlini. I started to fall in love with his skill set and thought he could be special. I never wanted to package him in a deal like some but I will admit I got a little worried. His down year in Niagra did not scare me as much as most, but his play at the world juniors was what started to worry me a bit. I was starting to worry that he might turn into a Boedker and have all the tools but no tool box. With his speed and shot, the sky is the limit for this kid.

Great response! Cheers and hope you caught the goal.

Convert? He already is a C. Let's hope they don't convert him to lw.

 

[GFF]

Actually missed it by 1second flicking between pens and yotes games...!! That'll teach me!

A trip down Perlini vs Duclair memory lane

 

[SniperHF]

Crouse still looking.

 

[ClassLessCoyote]

I'm enjoying this.

 

[CC96]

Welp, so much for Perlini's NHL career. Why don't you blame him for the loss, Tip?

 

[Palmer2Fitz]

Dumb penalty. Hopefully Perlini has chemistry with Ryan White.

 

[CC96]

Marty!!

 

[Muppet]

Hanzal out of nowhere. Forgot he was even playing

 

[0point1]

exciting game

 

[0point1]

97.6% Smith

 

[ck26]

Mike Smith putting in work yet again
Less Max Domi
More Brendan Perlini penalties
1 game win streak! Go fight win!

 

[Muppet]

The ever rare and elusive regulation win. Crouse was ****ing brilliant.

A trip down Perlini vs Duclair memory lane

Lol, nice digging! There were actually a lot of Perlini believers that summer (unlike this past summer), but hbk wasn't one of them.

 

[BlazingBlueAnt]

Was at the game.

Perlini is a thoroughbred. He just gallops across the ice.

Chykrun looked phenomenal. As did DeAngelo

Crouse is a skating refrigerator

Aside from the goal, the Hanzal line looked very ineffective 5v5

 

[Bandit34]

The young guys ( Deangelo, Crouse, Chychrun, Dauphin, Gaudet, and Perlini) looked great. I hope Crouse stays in the top nine.
