LW Ridly Greig - Ottawa Senators, NHL (2020, 28th, OTT)

[BoardsofCanada]

I doubt Greig will ever be a big point producer in the NHL but I could see him as a supreme pest/agitator who plays his best in the playoffs. Maybe a guy like Matt Cooke...but not quite as dirty.

You're underrating his skill.

1st pro goal (AHL), congrats!.

The Ridly Greig special; Scores a highlight reel goal, then proceeds to get a 5min major and a game misconduct.

Damnn that was nice

Also underrating his dirtiness.

Agree that goal was dirty as hell. Just straight nasty

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

Aww, his first DOPS meeting! They grow up so fast

 

[Senscore]

This hearing was effectively a press release warning the rest of the league.

If he can rein in the nastiness a bit and push the scoring edge a bit more, he's going to set up shop in opposing players heads pretty quick.

 

[Bileur]

Lol, he’ll be suspended for the first game he makes in the NHL.

 

[Micklebot]

Lol, he’ll be suspended for the first game he makes in the NHL.

I guess he won't first make the team as an injury callup...

 

[Akrapovince]

I hope the Ridley Greig special gets some traction going… Who wants a Gordie Howe Hatty when you can score + game misconduct.

 

[Simplicity]

Ridiculous suspension. We all know this won't be a penalty by November.

This is another guy thats going to make Detroit Ottawa games interesting in the future. Tkachuk, Greig, Boucher and Sanderson are going to have some battles with Seider, Smith, Edvinsson, Sebrango and maybe Bertuzzi. Neither team is gonna out skill Tampa or Toronto but the grit skill combo theyre both building might cause some issues

 

[Antiillafire]

Shouldn’t be producing more? He looked really good in Ottawa pre season and is now at 11 pts in 11 games but i expected him to be closer to 1.5 pts per game. Weaker Brandon team or what?

He's on a pretty weak Brandon team and it's still early in the season. 70-80 pts would be more or less meeting expectations and he's tracking in that direction.

For a totally unbiased comparison, Brendan Gallagher scored 77 pts in 54 games in his D+2 year on a poor Vancouver Giants team. Thats a 1.4 ppg pace and Greig is at 1.1.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Apparently he had 14 shots on goal tonight? That's got to be a typo.

 

[SensBrawler]

I like how, despite having a five point night, he still managed to have more PIMs than points lol.

 

[Quinnisinoverhishead]

Future all star. Once he fills out that frame, he is going to be a monster.

 

[jfhabs]

You're underrating his skill.

Cookes's or Greig's ?
Cooke wasn't a bad hockey player he was just really dirty. He was a pretty consistent 15g+15a guy.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

The old drawn out cliche of a player "being built for Playoff hockey" gets used a lot, but he fits in perfectly with that characterization.

 

[cudi]

Hattrick tonight for Greig

Quietly(?) having a very impressive season. Currently second in the W behind Savoie in ppg at 1.56, second behind Bedard for SOG/g and has not registered a point in only 2 games this season which is tied for tops in the league. Top 5 in PIMs to top it off.

People saying he is a future third liner .... comical.
Kid is going to be a perennial all star.

I haven't seen him play so I'm curious, what traits and skills does he have that would make him an all star level player?
