GDT: VGK vs Avs preseason game 2: Return of Pauly Walnuts 6pm ET

[PG Canuck]

Brannstrom is a f***ing stud

 

[CupInSIX]

Fucale shuts down a breakaway chance.

Anyone wanna guess who was so flatfooted to allow that to happen?

Hint: He was drafted way higher than he deserved.

ooh oooh I know

 

[HanSolo]

 

[PG Canuck]

SO hard not to be hyped about this kid.

Such a simple, yet effectively confident move. This is Brannstrom at his best right here.

 

[HanSolo]

ooh oooh I know

I felt like the one guy around this site who felt he was painfully overrated in his draft class.

I remember distinctly catching flak for saying "every time I watch him play I don't see anything special. He's fine amongst his peers but I don't see anything remarkable in his game."

People would tell me to go back to focusing on surfing (because I was a Ducks fan)

 

[LadyStanley]

Game now on TV

 

[PG Canuck]

Nevermind, this is probably Brannstrom at his best.

 

[KnishOfTheCrease]

Knights 9
Rockies 1

 

[CupInSIX]

Brannstrom looks more comfy on the North American ice tonight.

 

[HanSolo]

I think I can say this with confidence: Through two periods, Brannstrom has been the best player on the ice for Vegas.

 

[HanSolo]

TUCH

Absolutely great sequence. Lindberg with a long pass across the wings to Stastny, Stastny finds Tuch in front of the net with an easy shot at the goal. First signs of potential chemistry with Tuch.

For the life of me I can't understand why Tuch isn't playing with Stastny and Haula

 

[CupInSIX]

Tucker on the doorstep from Stastny

 

[GKG18]

Stazz with the sweet dish!

 

[Whiskey In the Jar]

Vegas looking really good as usual, even with mixed lineup. Sick team and coaching!

 

[ChanceVegas]

I think I can say this with confidence: Through two periods, Brannstrom has been the best player on the ice for Vegas.

Shea TheaWho?

 

[GKG18]

I think Turk is just doing his chemistry experiment. Tuch is paired with Haula, which is interesting...

 

[CupInSIX]

Keeping MacKinnon off the score sheet so far is pretty good, even if it is just preseason.

 

[LadyStanley]

Brannstrom looks more comfy on the North American ice tonight.

I think the rookie tournament really helped. 3 games + practices/scrimmages since.

 

[HanSolo]

This COL tv broadcast is literally an Avalanche propaganda machine.

 

[CupInSIX]

This COL tv broadcast is literally an Avalanche propaganda machine.

Well they got Lindsay Lohan to do interviews so production values are high.

 

[HanSolo]

Hahahaha Colorado scores and the TV guy cheers it like they scored a game 7 OT goal.

 

[HanSolo]

Brannstrom lays the boom on Calvert who tried to sell a call.

 

[CupInSIX]

did Reinhart try to push the ref out of the way?

 

[HanSolo]

In what dimension is that not a tripping call?

 

[CupInSIX]

the ginger sensation makes a great play to Brannstrom.
I think Eakin is due for a 100pt season
