If you only take these 2 periods so far....I player I didn't particular like in Barron makes it....and Guhle clearly doesn't make it.
Guhle makes it with ease, it wasnt a great showing yesterday, but you can see his tools and thats ridiculous, kid is so smart at defending, gives his opponenents no time and space, will stickcheck or bodycheck depending of the situation, his positionning is absolutely great, he knows in all time where he he needs to be and his skating provides him to cover a very large part of the ice... He knows when to jump in the play and he jumped a couple of times last night but his teammates didnt recognize the situation, he was free open a couple of times and it will eventually pay as the guys get to know each other more... Was used on the PK and 2nd PP unit, not sure about his shot, but he was moving that puck very well on the PP...
Kid had an intercepted pass in the neutral zone (Mercer) and you could see he was really mad at himself shaking his head after the wrister, thats a kid that makes very few mistakes on the ice and you wont see that kind of stuff many times in this tournament, kid will be relied on to play against the other teams top players and will have a big role on TC. He takes alot of pride at shuting down the opposition, he has that Weber mentality to give his opponents nothing when he is on the ice...
