Rimer: "sensational goaltending"

 

[KJ Dangler]

Laine and Jack going on late season benders to f*** the team over is definitely annoying as all hell. God f***ing dammit

You said this was one of the games they could win…

I will admit that I didn’t think so

 

[Derby]

Who is that basketball player in the sports betting commercial? I assume since they never name him, it’s someone “everyone “ should know.
Except me, apparently.

[NotWendell]

I felt pretty good when we were down 3-0.

You got complacent just like the Caps.

 

[KJ Dangler]

Assuming Laine gets his faceoffs up to par… why can’t he be a #1 Center ? He looks natural down center ice

 

[CharlotteJacket]

CBJ...snatching victory from the jaws of a sure defeat....

 

[LetsGOJackets!!]

Why couldn’t JLGP & Downtown Tony Brown take the game broadcast for the morons?? Rimmer can go do some more Byers commercials. I can’t stand him.

CBJ...snatching victory from the jaws of a sure defeat....

I cannot believe the CBJ tied it at 6 & won in OT. This is the boomerang game.. fvckkk

I'm not that much of a specialist, but it seems to me that he's the best center on the team right now (not counting Johnson, since he plays wing). What do you think?

Yeah that doesn’t mean I’m happy about it.

 

[VT]

I very like Olivier and hope he will resign. Ideal for the 4th line. Pederson isn't bad too. Simply, this line was the best. Sillinger plays better I think. I'm pleasant suprise Boqvist. What's happen Peeke, his skill and hockey vision are bad.

 

[I3LI3]

Laine is a +3 as a 1C despite the team giving up 13 goals in the last 2 games.

yeah yeah I know.. ‘plus minus’

wild.

Only +2. The second + was in 6:5. And 3 assists (4 in all situation).

I was surprised to see he won 56% of them tonight.

His move to center seems to have sparked something in his game. IMO he’s played a very well rounded game people have been clamoring for. It seems to come somewhat naturally to him and he seems to be more effective transporting the puck up the middle rather than on the wing.

 

[VT]

I can be wrong but Roslo plays wing very good. I think it's ideal position for him.

 

[Forepar]

Looks like the job is already done for tonight

Shots 10–1

Score 2-0

Jinxed it.

I'm not so sure yet about the center specific stuff. That line's transition game looked bad in the first half of the game.

He had a gorgeous assist on the Bemstrom goal but not a specifically center thing.

I don't know either, but the kid's got a good attitude.

 

[majormajor]

I don't know if it's worth the two points in the standings but there were a lot of things tonight that could give hope going into next year. Whoever we draft (and they'll be a great talent) that's still only one player. We have a lot of young talents to develop already on the team.

Two more assists for KJ.

Laine 4 assists in 2 games at center.

Boqvist is a serious marksman.

Heck even Bemmer and Foudy have been scoring lately. They might figure into next year's lineup, and if not we can get a little something for them.

Laine needs to get used to it, transitioning a center to OZ is different than a winger. Besides, he has more responsibilities. Comparing his game to classic top 6 centers can be done later. And our classic centers are Kuraly (injured), maybe Sillinger. Jenner and Roslovic are wingers playing center.

Rimer: "sensational goaltending"

Hold my beer...
NotWendell: "Rimer, sensational announcing!"

 

[Cowumbus]

I go to one stick and puck and end up missing a BEMMER BOMB, wtf
