GDT: Preseason: Game 5 - Anaheim Ducks @ Arizona Coyotes - 3pm PT

[Mr Rogers]

Luneau looks ready.

 

[dracom]

these SOG numbers cant be right, 2 for us in the 3rd and 0 for the coyotes?

 

[Leonardo87]

Some notable points..

Stroke…er um Strome - 2 G
Terry - 1 G
Leo- 1 A
Mac- 1 A on GW goal
Luneau 1A on tying goal

 

[HanSolo]

Well as fun as that was at the end, pretty stinky game overall.

Luneau and his 55 minutes of play was awesome.

I thought the same then I remembered it's the Ducks and the Yotes.

 

[slippingsloth]

They are wrong. The commentators even said coyotes had 26 shots on goal earlier in game

 

[Leonardo87]

I know it‘s only preseason but…

 

[ScarTroy]

Luneau is great, he might become the best of the CHL 3 we have coming up.

Aren't the Ducks due for an absolute stud diamond in the rough?

 

[Boo Boo]

I’m really looking forward to the Vatrano, Killorn, and Gudas trio finally coming together.

I was wondering bout that he seemed like he was on the ice for the whole 3rd

Yeah it looks like we may have cashed in a few of those in our current crop of young d men + terry

 

[dracom]

i hope that was the last we see of Kassian and like half of that roster.

I saw kassian being spoken too down the tunnel and he was told “ keep it up big sand paper man” by Cronin. So he’s not going anywhere

 

[Ducks DVM]

We took my mom to see Les Mis, so all we saw the last two minutes on mobile. Looked like a great game to me!

 

[Leonardo87]

This is how I see it. The right guys got on the scoresheet, we didn’t ice our full line up, two key guys are not even signed yet, and we are 4-1 in preseason.

Leo looked solid again, Strome and Vatrano looked much more engaged, Terry came though when we needed, Luneau was impressive, and Groulx even got on the scoresheet. Have to feel pretty good with how things have gone.

Now if Z and Dry can friggin sign, lol.

I’m just happy it was streamed. Ducks organization came through again. Arizona didn’t even have a stream.

Probably didn’t coordinate with the college AV team soon enough.

Problem is there's still echoes of the Eakins system on top of a still fairly weak roster.

Gonna take our guys some time to learn Cronin’s system, won’t happen overnight.

That's true. I guess what I'm implying is that the bones of Cronin's system from what we see and hear about it appear to be an improvement. How much of an improvement it comes out to be in practice is anyone's guess.

I noticed one thing. Our guys weren’t as pinned in their zone. It was more one and dones that Dostal coudn’t save. Wasn‘t his best game.

Weren't as pinned maybe but a bit sloppy on the zone exits. Sluggish in the offensive zone which cramped the ability to create chances. Forechecking pressure seemed to come and go randomly.

I look at more individual efforts, and I liked what I saw, even from some vets. Some of the kids look promising. As they get more reps in under Cronin we will see more consistently. I expect the last couple of games to be mostly are regulars playing.
