Tanner Glass II: What a Goal.

[bl02]

Tanner Glass did some magnificent board work prior to the GWG. That goal was huge and really deflated the Bolts.

That was an awesome goal. You're right the board work was awesome. Just the way you have to play against tb defense. Hit them, cause turnovers and go to the net. All three forwards contributed (plus Brass).

I'm not complaining at all, but it's so odd to me that he went from absolutely terrible to pretty decent for his role with the flip of a switch. His timing couldn't have been better.

Tanner has been really, really impressing me. For what was expected, and what he has delivered... Amazing

 

[silverfish]

Hopefully every GM in the league feels the way this thread seems to be feeling right now.

He hasn't been complete ****!

 

[E-Train]

That board work was something completely unseen during the regular season. Impressive, loved the hit on Coburn too.

 

[Ranger Angst]

Glass has been a pleasant surprise . Wish he could score once in a while.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

His spot can be improved upon but I'll worry about that at a later time. I've been surprised and overall content with his play as of late.

Sure, its mostly due to him not being the complete abomination he was in the regular season but for now, I'll take it!

 

[Pizza]

Glass has been solid. Rock solid.

Different game in the playoffs...much more board play and puck battles intensified . You need guys with grit and that will push and shove and give a glove pop every now and then and also be willing to take a couple to win battles....can't have all pretty boys in the playoffs .

 

[Inferno]

yeah except glass doesnt win battles. he gets in hard on the forecheck, and if hes lucky, his teammates will dig the puck out, but if its a 1 on 1 battle he doesnt win them. like ever. all he does is hit, then hope the other guy falls over. usually its glass. he plays like hes got a hand grenade on his stick when hes actually touching the puck.

hes not been as AWFUL defensively as he was earlier in the year...but make no mistake, he still sucks.

This is basically how I feel. I don't feel he has been anything special. Comparing his earlier in the season play to now, is like comparing a dandelion to a turd, of course it will smell better.

Yeah, this.

Since he seems to dominate every single thread, why not give him his own? Just a suggestion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Glass is here to stay...deal with it. I'm thrilled to see this artist of hockey back in action. And btw, now we have two guys who can fight, we're not soft anymore

Works for me

 

[Esa 10]

Someone should send that bears picture to PETA. Maybe they'll picket NYR games and it'll finally force a Glass move somewhere.

 

[Igor Shestyorkin]

He was just able to pick 'em apart. Good word choice Messier.

You must be a big fan. How hard did he make you spit your beer out laughing? Maybe it was his ivy league education that has you enamoured? Is he a good story teller?

Please justify this satisfaction you are experiencing.

 

[Ail]

I bet he brings a pair of those glasses with the fake eyes on springs attached everywhere with him. Those must be a real hoot at dinner.

He ****ing sucks./

Billy, you're drunk. Please try to see what AV and Gorton see when evaluating Glass and it will all make perfect sense. To understand a man you must become him.
