GDT #45: JAN 8 7:30, Jets @ Leafs

Oh and if people could stop blowing Andersen non-stop that'd be fucking great.

He's a good starter, that's it, that's all. There is a mile between him and elite.

Marincin/Ceci giving me diarrhea

 

[zeke]

note: that's very, very rare.

 

[BeLeafer]

- Fred makes his first save of the game.

Hughson: "fred's best save of the game so far!"

Nothin' but facts, mam.

 

[zeke]

I think it's time we try someone other than hyman on that top line, tbh.

He hasn't even been healthy to start his career...let's not get into the usage shit either. He would be staring at 4 straight 40 goal seasons with just a bit of extra health.

 

[BeLeafer]

Hyman on 2 on 1s ... no, just no.

 

[BeLeafer]

Fred is making me nervous. Looks like he's still off.

I get that he does a lot of grindy shit right, he's a legit great forechecker, etc. But he really is brutal with the puck on his stick.

even with matthews and mitch on fire he still can't manage any 5v5 points whatsoever. it's crazy.

Hyman has to have one of the largest gaps between xGF and GF in the league.

It's a shame Soupy went down. Dude looks like he does most of that gud pro shit Hyman does, while having actual hockey player skills on top of it.

engvall looks almost as good. he's healthy.

This is sorta off topic for GDT but who do you think would be Robertson's ideal linemates when he makes the jump?

Wouldn't be so shocked if it was next year.

 

[zeke]

sexy shift.

yeah but you take that goalie out of the net and look out...

sure he's the perfect fit stylewise. but so might AJ, Mikheyev, Engvall be.

He doesn't, but it's one of the places I've always struggled when analyzing Hyman. He has spent almost every shift of his NHL career on the ice with legitimately elite talent.

Hyman is a weird analytic superstar and I struggle to wrap my head around it.

 

[zeke]

hate when freddy freezes on those clean wristers by his shoulder.

 

[zeke]

fred sucks
