GDT: Gm 44: Ducks at Sharks, @ 7:30pm Pacific

He supposed to be a good skater and puck handler. There were hopes that he would be more offensive since he was in his youth. Maybe potential to be a downgraded poor man’s Theodore with more defense.

Like Stolarz getting rewarded for his last game. Keep it up big man

This team is so good at scouting goalies (even other teams players) and picking the right ones to have in the AHL.
I just read that Stolarz was drafted 45th overall in 2012 by the Flyers, 9 picks after the Ducks selected Kerdiles, in round three the Ducks pick Andersen but who knows maybe they wanted Stolarz if he fell to that pick ?
That 2012 draft had so many guys in the Top 15 that suck but that draft produced a lot of goalies from good to elite (Vas) and alot of Dmen.

Plays nothing like Theodore, I watch a lot of Canes games (I have Aho, Hamilton and Mrazek) on my fantasy team... He is more defensive than offensive.

I am hoping he realizes after being traded he needs to play with more passion because in the past I have seen him pretty physical....I hope he develops into a Niklas Hjalmarsson type defensemen.

Sounds like Petterson with more bulk that he doesn't use.

 

[bsu]

Not a bad comparison either.

I read somewhere online that Haydn exploded during the playoffs and was expecting that as the base when this season started. Instead, he revert back to his non-descript game. That's why he's here now.

Yes, Carolina has a super good defense so he kinda got left for scrap minutes.

I mean, that'd be great.

Well, I'd be shocked if this management encouraged him to be aggressive offensively.

At a minimum, he'd be encouraged to pinch down. Even Hakanpaa adapted to that notion.

Steel is alive!

Welinski again...sigh. Wish we’d see Curran get a look

 

[Hockey Duckie]

Boo. Send Steel to the AHL and leave Carrick up with the NHL club. This makes absolutely no sense, especially since Steel is waiver eligible.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Drysdale at LD again, lol

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Carrick should play. That's dumb.

 

[Static]

Six shots in the last two periods is just terrible. Knew it was bad, but not that bad.

 

[sunsetsuperhuman]

Wow, Fleury sounded like somebody just shot his dog.

Hopefully he's motivated to play well and isnt sad to be away from his canes bros.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Don't think he enjoyed being asked about getting his swagger back.

 

[Static]

Well, he did go from a playoff team to a lottery team. That part isn't great. Hopefully he uses it as motivation to prove them wrong.

 

[bsu]

That lady that interviews is so robotic it creeps me the f*** out.

He has to play with Kevin Shattenkirk, I’d be depressed too

I thought the same thing. Not a great first impression.

[Hockey Duckie]

Just saw Haydn's interview and he looks svelte. I was expecting to have a little be more mass in my head for some reason. Maybe it's just the all black shirt that's making him look like it? ::: raising shoulders :::

 

[70sSanO]

And he can’t wear his “Bunch of Jerks” shirt anymore.
