[These Are The Days]

Can't watch tonight so go ahead with all updates you want.

You got it bruh! I've got quite a bit going on but I'll do my best to keep the thread updated.

 

[Stormbreaker]

The puck has dropped, let's go Otters!

 

[These Are The Days]

Otters to the PP

 

[Stormbreaker]

Spitfires score on the power play

 

[These Are The Days]

1-0 Windsor. Great steal by Bracco for a goal. D Raddysh got freaking punked man. Puck was right at his feet for probably 3 seconds and couldn't find it and Windsor picked it off and made the Otters pay.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Yeah D Raddysh didn't look very good on that one.

 

[These Are The Days]

Strome ties it up

 

[Stormbreaker]

Nice shot and a good feed by D. Raddysh

It really was. He needed to make up for that blunder earlier and I'll say that was more than satisfactory.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Otters take the lead on the power play. 2 - 1

Windsor answers right back, tie game.

 

[These Are The Days]

2-2 What a hell of a game. Boy that didn't take long. Spits trail for the first time during the Memorial Cup and they tie it right back up.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Otters take the lead 3-2 but then take a penalty not long after.

Lodnia setting up that goal. I'd like if we could grab him in the 2nd.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Just like that Windsor ties it on the PP.

 

[These Are The Days]

One last period to win it. C'mon Otters. Put our young Bolts to glory

 

[HoseEmDown]

Seems like this game is setting up for more Cirelli heroics.

Our guys were pretty bad tonight.

One thing I've learned from watching this tournament is that Erik Cernak is legit

And I've learned that Darren Raddysh needs A LOT of work. It's not for a lack of effort with him but he is proof that not all players are created equally. That you can try as hard as you possibly can and it's still not gonna be good enough. I don't know what bothers me more. Losing the puck at his feet which led to the goal by Bracco. Or Bracco (at least I remember it was him) blowing right by him at the blue line to set up the game winning pass.

 

[MattM92]

From BP's recap of the championship game:

He was the conference's top defensive-defenseman last season and offensive-defenseman this season. Taylor’s brother could join Syracuse next season if Tampa Bay signs him.

That's about D. Raddysh.

 

[MrClutch86]

I'm a big Otters fan, before the Lightning even had prospects on the team (as evident by my long term Debrincat avatar) but I think D. Raddysh is overrated. He has tools, but not the box. Good on offense but has a lot to work on. Wouldn't mind signing him as a project, but Syracuse D is pretty full, he's older, and I'm not confident in long term success.

 

[These Are The Days]

From BP's recap of the championship game:



That's about D. Raddysh.

I'd never want to imply he's a bad player but that he still has a ways to go. There's been times he has looked great and other times where he's looked nothing short of Matt Carle.

 

[MattM92]

Well if he has been both a defensive defenseman of the year AND an offensive defenseman of the year then he clearly has the tools for both. Just about putting it all together and playing with consistency. Consistency is always the last thing a player learns, and it's what separates bad from good from great.

anyone see him for slovaki know did well in wjc in past hf says is 5 tool guy how good is his slap shot and can he be our number 1 rh d man in the future?

any real reads on this the forgotten prospect so to speak? I liked his physicality in the memorial cup a lot maybe work a bit on first pass more etc.. but he seems to have all the size and tools necessary to be the guy down the road. How fast can this kid get to tampa? these questions are for everyone. How is tampa viewing him? If anyone has inside stuff havent spoken to bp about him yet do they have a good read so far? if so link me ty !!

Too soon to say, but if I were a betting man, I'd say he forces himself into the top 4 in Syracuse next season.

The Syracuse Crunch's road to the Calder Cup Finals has been aided by dominant play on home ice as well as strong play from their veterans. Read more: http://thehockeywriters.com/home-ice-veterans-leading-crunch-ahl-finals/
