fyp

plenty of regular season games can give us meaningful feedback to judge our team on.

not games against the shittastic habs tho.

nah… you won’t know if Reeves and Klingmeister are difference makers until the post

 

[zeke]

Reaves isn't a difference maker.

But we'll be able to tell if Klingberg is playable enough 5v5 to be an impact PP player.

Or, if Liljegren can step up and absorb enough minutes to shelter Klingberg

Klinger looked really good on the PP from what I witnessed, he's going to set-up some beauties.

The hope is that McCabe is a tough version of Holl, really.

Threw a couple decent hits last night and I sensed no fear of a random RNH appearance, so there's that

I’m not in love just yet. I think we could easily turn on him.

One thing about Klingberg is that he barely was on the ice with Matthews last night. Golden xgf boy of the night, Brodie got just under 2 and a half extra minutes with him. Klingberg instead got an extra 2 minutes with guys like Kampf and Jarnkrok.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that Klingberg is elite as fuck his my adjusted QOT equalization xgf% based on my model is 101%.


I could mention that Brodie was hard matched with Suzuki and Klingberg was mostly (but not really HARD) matched with Dach but my response to that is that Dach is obviously better than Suzuki.

everytime you get tempted to look at the stats for this game just say to yourself "shittastic meaningless habs".

 

[Preston]

Yeah I thought that many times and even deleted my original post which mentioned that little factoid. But I went ahead and re-wrote it. What a waste of fucking time. LOF is right.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

By the way, at least as of this morning, nhl and espn websites didn’t have player stats up. Wtf?

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Frenemy decided to go for it anyway.

“New year, Same Leafs. It's going to be a long year with that D.”

It's going to be an even longer year watching the "shittastic meaningless habs"

 

[LeafOfFaith]

The thing is, they have a few weapons that can hurt you if you're playing shitty, which most of the team kinda was last night.

That's the danger zone - when your play is poop - but if your game is on, they are primo blowout candidates.

I’m disappointed in Frenemy, should have sent this instead

“Congrats!!! We skunked you 4-1 at full strength but Guy Boucher’s odd man tactics proved to be too much for us”

He's out of practice. I basically ignore the guy.
