WJC: Who’s this year’s MONSTER PERFORMER?

[bigtimehockeyfan]

Brandon Kozun will have a monster tournament

 

[12Duchene34]

Brayden Schenn no question, another way for pierre to try to get in Lukes pants

 

[CCF23]

Watching Schroeder play, or try to play this year, has been embarrassing. I think it's pretty safe to say Roenicks' record will stay put.

Hasn't the whole team been disappointing this year?

We'll see. 7 points isn't much, especially when you get some of the weaker teams and Schroeder should get 1st line and 1st unit PP minutes.

Eberle needs 6 goals to be Canada's all time goal leader at the WJC.

Eberle needs 6 goals to be Canada's all time goal leader at the WJC.

Who leads that stat?

 

[Avery4Byng*]

Pieterangelo.

 

[DougieSmash]

Michal Jordan and Tommi Kivisto.

 

[Kevin Malone]

Pieterangelo.

He was brutal at last years WJC and was sat for a much younger Ryan Ellis. He also hasn't been playing much for the Blues lately. I hope he becomes a Monster, I just don't see it.

 

[La Bamba]

Eberle & Filatov will destroy the competition. Eberle got 6 goals last year and needs at least 7 goals this year to be the all-time leading goal scorer.

 

[GKJ]

It will be Brayden Schenn.

Pierre's New Love Affair - Brandon McMillan

Every WJHC Pierre McGuire falls in love with one of the Canadian players and talks about him non-stop throughout the tournament. After two exhibition games it is clear that the lucky guy so far is Brandon McMillan. Gotta love Pierre's passion.

 

[Canucks LB]

He usually picks great players, so this is good news for micky mouse.

also micky has played great, deserves some praise.

 

[13 others]

He has some pretty slick hands and good speed from what I see so far. Nice goal.

[Jesus Christ Horburn]

Last year, Ryan Ellis and John "Magical Play" Tavares were Pierre's love affairs.

This year, McMillan and Pietrangelo look like Pierre's early favorites.

 

[Tricolore#20]

Interesting that Pierre threw out the nickname "Doctor" for Ryan Ellis.

Seemed fairly random. Is there any kind of backstory to this, like an obvious Dr. Ellis that I am blatantly forgetting, or something in Ellis's past remotely associated with being a Doctor?

I can't be the only one who thought it may be a reference to Pierre wanting a checkup?

Yeah, i just think he wants to play doctor.

"Could you please cough for me?"

I presume its just for his ability to control the offense with his playmaking. Kind of like how they refer to great quarterback's like peyton manning as doctors or surgeons because they pick apart defenses. Ellis picks apart defenses with his passing and decision making.

 

[Steve466]

After two exhibition games, Brandon McMillan seems to be the chosen one. Taylor Hall isn't far behind though.

 

[hound67]

Who leads that stat?

John Tavares, Eric Lindros, and Jeff Carter all tied with 12 I believe.

 

[BIG BLUE]

Taylor Hall appears to have the fire within so far.

 

[Beatle17]

Pierre McQuires love affair and bragging on the players almost makes me cheer for the other team. Every simple little play is followed by an "outstanding" or "unbelievable". The only thing outstanding so far has been the goaltending. As the players grow as a team we could see a great effort, but to continually build these kids up like Pierre and Gord Miller do, it is just setting them up for a downfall.

 

[JL17]

Poor Ellis he must be shattered he's not the guy this year....Hall's jumping for joy so far he's not it.

 

[JEI]

Poor Ellis he must be shattered he's not the guy this year....Hall's jumping for joy so far he's not it.

He will be by the end of the tournament.
