GDT: PS Game 5: Colorado Avalanche @ Vegas Golden Knights - 20:00 MT

Dayum ... can’t say Gorque or Dries have done that

 

[Avalanche1945]

Welcome to the 23 man roster Jayson

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Sick goal

 

[Foppa2118]

Nice move by Megma. Terrible save attempt by Subban.

 

[The Kingslayer]

Wow Megna

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Damn, that's a highlight.

 

[PAZ]

It's weird having a bunch of NHL caliber players fighting for a spot.

 

[S3rkie]

Also that stick play by Timmins on Carrier was buttery smooth, I thought he was beat.

 

[wayninja]

Hope Megna continues his preseason dominance. Clearly the guy we should all be watching.

*coughs*

 

[Metallo]

Megna has wheels!

 

[crue7]

Mr useless in the box

 

[Avalanche1945]

Also, I could see Tynan being a nice midseason callup if someone in the top 6 goes down

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Tynan with some high energy PK there.

 

[wayninja]

Icing on the PP... lol

 

[BoxOfChocolates]

This is Sheldon Dries 2.0

There's a reason why Megna hasn't even stuck in the NHL

 

[JLo217]

You can see Bedsys system is starting to work and he’s learning as he goes.

A bunch of fill ins having a solid showing.

 

[Tralfamadore]

Boy LV moves that puck quickly on the PP.

Good kill though.

 

[forsbergavs32]

I know it’s preseason and the vets aren’t playing 100% but still interesting to watch these kids dominating

 

[Metallo]

Coconut has been useless.

 

[Rumplesnipeskin]

Love the speed and effort from Megna, he's definitely standing out. Don't think he makes the club, but could be real nice after a year of seasoning on the Eagles

Edit: I dunno why, but I get shades of Jack Skille from him... but hopefully better in the long run

Completely disagree. Both have looked quite good. Kaut is a monster along the boards, he wins so many of those battles.


And Nuke has been solid as well.

Kaut needs to works on his strength. If he added a more physical element to his game, it would help him with his engagement and solidify him as a top-6 prospect. He’s not ready for the NHL yet, no matter how you slice it.

Nuke hasn’t been awful, but just no finish. After his performance last season, he can’t afford to consistently not finish on any of his chances.

Dries hasn’t ever looked this good. Avs just weren’t deep. Dries is rough.

Nuke has set up a few opportunities and seems responsible defensively and on rushes. I like him. And Kaut has gotten much stronger, anyone can see this.

 

[JLo217]

Case and point on Dries. No hands.

No, like I said I disagree. He has been very strong along the boards and has been able to use his strength and size to win a lot of board battles. Engagement hasn't been an issue at all.

I actually think he is NHL ready and could play in the NHL now. But doing so would likely limit how much his offensive upside gets developed which is why I hope he goes to the AHL to start the year.
