Roster Moves & Training Camp Discussion

[McTonyBrar]

Neal is ruled out because of COVID protocols, but be was allowed to practice with the team during training camp? I am confused

Out of shape

To be fair, it's pretty much only defenseman blocking shots on the PK.

RNH and Brodziak had the lion's share of PK time in 18-19 and they combined for 7 blocked shots on the PK. (Kassian had 4.)

Gonna disagree here. Blocking shots, for a forward covering the point can often be a standing block, and often leads to a shorthanded scoring chance the other way if you get that one. I've seen Kassian line up for ablock and he's easily 5 feet away from the direction of the puck. In the play in there was one supposed block attempt by Kass that resulted in a goal, and he heard about it on the bench, from his own players. That was talked about in the play in.

Just saying being on the PK doesn't really boost forwards' blocked shot numbers.

RNH and Brodziak were way out in front in PK time that year and they had four and three blocks each on the PK.

Waddell is such a loser.

Doesn't the team that lost the player get the first right to re-claim?

Time to close this thread since we are now into the regular season.
