Definitely GDT-worthy.

Of course it's a Habs goal so not thread worthy. We already know how it works around here.

Barely even a goal. Couple inches one way, it's off the post and out.

Do you go into every great save thread and say "barely even a save, couple inches one way and its in the net"?

So this guy seems pretty good. Am I misreading that, because he's been quite good against the Bruins

Good enough that the GM traded Bourque so Therrien was forced to play him.

Watsatheo is a Habs fan and I'm sure you needed a sarcasm detector while reading his post.

The Kings are producing highlight reel goals left and right, not scoring them though.

Sekac is a beaut. I'd he's been our best forward overall this season. Love his game.

Good goal, not really thread worthy.

What is thread worthy perhaps is a player discussion about Sekac. Whats his skillset, potential, etc.

 

[TRG]

Offensively he has some nice tools. Decent hands, decent shot. He's amazing at winning battles along the boards and retrieving those pucks deep. He skates well and is often the first guy back checking. Pretty solid defensively.

He's showing a lot of good stuff. Now, it's only been 24 games for him in the NHL and on NA size rinks. He'll keep improving, I think he can be a 50-60 pts player in a couple years but I may be overestimating it. I don't make that type of predictions often. It's just that Sekac skill set is made for the NHL.

Protects the puck like no other rookie, great hands, 2-way player. If he becomes a 50 point, 2-way player I'm happy.

Decent goal.

Best ? Hardly

Pacioretty.. Galchenyuk, plekanec, Gallagher ...

But yeah he's really good . He definitely look like he could become a solid 2nd liner with 50pts potential

 

[Southern Comfort]

That was actually really freaking nice!

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Lol, if that was Karlsson instead of Doughty on that 1on1 no one would hear the end of it. Even though Doughty was playing difficult bouncing puck.

 

[Jesus Christ Horburn]

Sekac was a great pick up.

Just goes to show for every Brunner, Kontiola, Pesonen, etc. there's a Sekac or Lehtera.

 

[Doctyl]

Doughty a god among men

The Blues actually drafted him.

Pretty goal but made even more sweet by the fact we got Sekac for free! Well, we do pay him, but you know what I mean.

 

[Mirinho]

nice goal ... signing Sekac as UFA was like getting bonus 1st round pick on the draft for free

I agree with this.

So happy that we managed to pick up Sekac, I think he'll be a 50-point 2nd liner who's good defensively as well. Signing him is like getting a free-1st rounder, great move by Bergevin!

 

[Jacob]

My reaction to that goal is the same as Therrien's.

 

[Binary Code]

Nice goal but Doughty, Muzzin and Jones were all beyond bad on this play ...
