GDT: Game 5: Coyotes @ Jets - 5PM - FSAZ

[Name Nameless]

On another note, can't wait to see what Fischer does tonight. HOPEFULLY he's motivated by seeing how well Hayton has played and knowing that he's his likely replacement at this time.

Fischer hasn't been bad, except on some occations, when he has been real bad. But really bad happens.

I did sense he was the one not smiling when they celebrated the victory over the Golden Knights. (Just me, why not contract that to the Gnights?)

Never mind. I see Hayton is sitting. I don't agree with it, but nobody asked me.

This is poor prospect management. Young first round picks need some minutes to get in a rhythm and get their confidence going.

Hayton needs to be sent down if he cannot get significant icetime and play every night.

The Leafs just did the sensible thing by sending Rasmus Sandin (Hayton’s draft year) down, who was getting only 13 minutes a night. They felt it was too little icetime and it would hurt his development. Hopefully the Coyotes follow suit.

Hayton will develop very well in the OHL and with Team Canada at the WJC, and his confidence won’t be ruined either.

He's banged up and in competition with other forwards for ice time. Not a big deal. If you actually bothered to watch him you'd know confidence is not a problem.

Saying this as a person that castigated the franchise for its handling of Strome.

I agree with it. Tocchet is sitting him against a punishingly physical team. That's the right move. Fischer (and Crouse) bring needed size. Perhaps next year Hayton will be ready to play against teams like the Jets.

I don't completely disagree with you however not exactly comparable situations. Sandin went to the AHL and although the Leaf's don't plan on it could be recalled. I'm sure if the Coyotes had this option with Hayton they would get him in some games in Tucson rather than being stuck all the way in Sault ste marie.

Richardson is wearing the second A tonight.

(called it).

Garland and Schmaltz on the same line in their own zone OH BOY

Yeeeeup, best of luck to Dvo and whichever D pairing is it out there.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Capobianco is in tonight.

At the Capo....Capo-bianco...

Nice of them to continuously mention how we're on a 10 game losing streak in Winnipeg.

 

[SniperHF]

Peppy start both ways.

Nice of them to continuously mention how we're on a 10 game losing streak in Winnipeg.

Again that's why it was so annoying opening night as against Boston cause we never beat them

 

[SniperHF]

Whew, I was worried it was gonna be our PP.

 

[Grimes]

Whew, I was worried it was gonna be our PP.

Hahaha had the same thought

 

[_Del_]

Garland and Schmaltz on the same line in their own zone OH BOY

Even more to the point: we're sitting Hayton because he isn't "ready" against heavy teams, but we load up Garland and Schmaltz on the same line and have Crouse, Soderberg, and Fish on the same line?

Welp, the PK looking great under McLean, too, eh?

 

[XX]

Loligoski in front of the net. GJ dude.

 

[SniperHF]

PK basically had nothing on the Jets PP.

 

[SniperHF]

Stepan's peripheral vision is apparently as good as his shootout move.

Helps when your net front D doesn't cover the man and isn't close enough to stick check. Missing Hammer already.

 

[SniperHF]

Well in 3 of the first 4 games we looked good and couldn't score, now we look tepid and can't score.

 

[Glove Malfunction]

At the Capo....Capo-bianco...

Admit it everyone, you sang this. You absolutely sang it instead of just reading it.

 

[_Del_]

Stepan's peripheral vision is apparently as good as his shootout move.

You know it was accidental because there are about three guys on the roster who would deliberately make contact like that. And none of them are Stepan. getting

Also. Garland gets rocked. Surprised Schmaltz didn't step in to protect him or at least intimidate them with speed.

Admit it everyone, you sang this. You absolutely sang it instead of just reading it.

He'll fit in with the other showgirls on the roster

 

[XX]

The Coyotes look mentally weaker than the team that is yanking concessions workers out of the stands to play D.

 

[Muppet]

Chychrun is having a rough start to this one.
