Post-Game Talk: Laval 5 - 2 Binghamton: No Torch, No Loss.

[Runner77]

How do you guys like Bruno Gervais as an analyst?

 

[Adam Michaels]

Let's admire that sweet pass by Fleury on the Froese goal.

 

[Andrei79]

There’s still good in him, I can feel it....he’s not completely lost, we can still save him

Hope you're right. He's done a lot of things well and having a good 6'5" player with a scoring touch would be a great add to the team.

 

[Gabe84]

Beautiful PP there. Alain with a wicked release men. I think he'll set his office up on the PP on the left circle like Ovechkin and Stamkos.

Alain looks raw but lots of flashes so far. Some nice dekes and many good shots on that last PP.

How do you guys like Bruno Gervais as an analyst?

Honestly, Pierre McGuire and Mike Johnson aside, I basically turn off anything's said if it's not noteworthy. So... I guess he hasn't been noteworthy since I havent paid attention to him one bit.

I like him period.....on Antichambre he’s one of my Favs

Having McCarron rediscover his talent would be like finding a Benjamin in an old jean jacket

You mean Pierre Lebrun??

It took pretty much until Boyle was 25 to establish himself. He didn't look very good before and needed work on his skating. Who knows, maybe that can be McCarron, cause he's actually skilled, he just needs not to get type cast as a checker and get a lot of top line ice time. Glad we kept him tbh.

 

[Andrei79]

You mean Pierre Lebrun??

Hot takes aside, I've always enjoyed how McGuire breaks down plays, you just have to mentally dial down his overemphasis on small plays.

 

[Adam Michaels]

And there's another element to Fleury's game we will love. That was a solid body check.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Laval is flying out there.

 

[Runner77]

There's a great example of McCarron using his body to create a scoring chance. He almost ragdolled the opposing D.

 

[Adam Michaels]

How effective is McCarron when he uses that frame. The guy tried to hit him off the puck but goes flying into his goalie and knocks the net off. I call that a strike.

McCarron is having a hell of a game and great start to the season.

 

[Andrei79]

McCarron getting top 6 ice time, PP and PK time, THIS is how you develop guys.

Great drive to the net there too.

 

[417]

McCarron really worked on his skating and it shows...good for him.

 

[Runner77]

Kulak with 18:36 of ice time after two periods -- the most TOI of any Rocket player. Gervais noting that Kulak is good in all facets.

If Bouchard is using him this much, he must be showing something.

[Adam Michaels]

And Josh Bro.... I mean Kenny Agostino with his 1st of the season.

 

[Runner77]

And there's another element to Fleury's game we will love. That was a solid body check.

And after you posted that, Fleury hits an opponent against the boards, made a booming sound.

 

[David Suzuki]

Wow I've never seen him skate like that

 

[Adam Michaels]

Kulak with 18:36 of ice time after two periods -- the most TOI of any Rocket player. Gervais noting that Kulak is good in all facets.

If Bouchard is using him this much, he must be showing something.

He's been the team's best defenseman even in the first two games. If Olofsson can come in and play like Kulak, Laval will be real good in the back end.

 

[DangerDave]

Glad to hear McCarron is playing well.

Let's admire that sweet pass by Fleury on the Froese goal.

That was sweet. Nice hands, good stick and good mobility to open up the ice and help create that passing lane.

I've watched some of his Junior games and he'd lay some Emelin-type of hits on guys. What's even better with Fleury is that he is better at hockey than Emelin.
