Player Discussion The Legend of John Klingberg

[KriminellPipa]

Awesome highlight reel.

I think what's most interesting is the score on most of those. Close games where we're tying it or taking the lead. Klingberg seems to produce the most when the pressure's on - would love to see him in the playoffs.

Killer highlight reel! Thanks for putting that together. What an exciting team...

awesome video, thanks!

Thank you!

Here's an interview done by the swedish website hockeysverige.se, atleast it might give you a smile due to doubtful translation by google

Will it be klingberg or goligoski on the first pp unit?

Klingberg made it work last year, most likely he'll be back there again.

Will it be klingberg or goligoski on the first pp unit?

Klingberg, no doubt.

Look how beautiful this is

And yet people on HF still say Klingberg is a product of Seguin and Benn.

they can not have seen him very much.

Yeah, as long as he plays for the Stars hes going to struggle to get recognition. He'll get compared to Zubov but really he's more like Leetch, except better defensively.

JK3 tied for fourth in nhl scoring with Wheeler also, amazing we have him locked up for the next 7 years

 

[Master Scheif]

I've been following him since he entered the league closer than any other Non-Jet. Ever since this goal, I fell in love.

Seriously he might be my favourite player in the league right now. I'm not even ashamed to say that. I don't have a second team, but Klingberg is slowly converting me against my will because watching two teams in the same division is a terrible idea... Let's just say I know who i'm bandwagoning for in the Playoffs. And hey, every fan starts out as a bandwagon fan. (Big fan of the jerseys too)

 

[Azdinator]

A real legend !

 

[Purity*]

Woah you guys have him locked up for 7 years at 4.25M??!?!?!

That is disgusting.

[Satan]

He's already better than Bobby Orr. I swear to God..... Bobby Orr has never had a better 18 game stretch.

 

[Arkham32]

Orr? your really underrating JK3 here... has Gretzky even had this great a 18 game stretch?

 

[Satan]

Orr? your really underrating JK3 here... has Gretzky even had this great a 18 game stretch?

I just ran the numbers and you're right.


Damn.............

We are never scared of impossible expectations.

 

[LT]

While I appreciate the hype, some of this is getting a little bit out of hand. Its too soon to definitively say anything about where he ranks in regards to more established top players.

He is going to win the next 7 Norris trophies.

 

[Ghost of Kyiv]

He is going to win the next 7 Norris trophies.

...then give us a home town discount and win another 10.

 

[Satan]

17 Norris trophies. Maybe if Klingberg gets 17 he can give one to Zubov to get him into the HHOF

 

[BRoni]

I heard that the Norris trophy has been renamed the Klingberg trophy.

 

[Troy McClure]

While I appreciate the hype, some of this is getting a little bit out of hand. Its too soon to definitively say anything about where he ranks in regards to more established top players.

I can definitively say he's outplayed many of them for 18 games.

 

[LT]

18 games, sure. 18 games doesn't make a player elite, though.
