He plays a very risky game. Could see this injury coming from a mile away. I appreciate his motor and energy and his willingness to lay it all on the line, but if he wants a long career here he’ll have to do that in a less chaotic way and find some calmness and poise to this game.
Said this before as well. So much edge and sharp turns in Holloways game, and its the unique way in which he stays tight in puck batttles and pressure. He'll have to make some adjustments but he is putting himself in too much potential for boards injuries
my take is that the young player is jacked and amped. I'll take that, and that he will calm it down as he finds other ways to succeed at this level. Doesn't help either that Woodcroft created such an urgency for Holloway to feel desperation in every shift not knowing when the next one will be.
Hah hah. Whoever you’re responding with I have ignored, I think I know who it is from yesterday’s discussions. I won’t be taking his bait.
And I agree. I loved Drais’s passion after getting dumped and then stuffing 4 points down their pie holes. He put his money where his mouth was.
Show me a fresh NHL coach that just took over the bench for a new team that benches a superstar for this, and your probably looking at a deadman walking after just one game.
Pissing Drai off isn't always the opponent best plan. I don't know Bo Horvat as any genius either.
But Drai certainly made this his game, and the Islanders his bitch. Any Islanders fan probably hated and feared him being on the ice. How do you even defend some of his passes. No look passes that are gold. Even before Drai got on scoreboard the pass to Kane was OMG. The type of play even opponent fans would have to respect.
Drai always has his posters here that take his number though and find any reason to critique.
