On NHL Network, too, for those out of towners!

The Napkin · Sep 20, 2015

HOCKEY!

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

It's on and it's beautiful.

Khokhlachev playing with some giddy up

PedroSpecialK · Sep 20, 2015

Yeah I didn't hear the comments myself, just read some of them - that's the kind of talk that I wouldn't think flies with Julien or this FO

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

I think Ryan Spooner is going to have a monster season this year.

The Napkin · Sep 20, 2015

Too many rebounds

PedroSpecialK · Sep 20, 2015

More of that Rinaldo

Did I mention I hate all of you that are at home and can watch this?

PedroSpecialK · Sep 20, 2015

Ouch - Ruutu and Griffith go knee to knee, Griffith limped off

PedroSpecialK · Sep 20, 2015

Great hip check by Colin Miller

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

Oh my god. Draft Kings is EVERYWHERE. It's a scourge!

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

Griffith out for the game. Hopefully it's just precautionary.

The Napkin · Sep 20, 2015

Two PP goals for Irwin? We'll never see him again.

It's a good thing we have McQuaid's contract to potentially block him.

Trotman has looked really good tonight, at least in the strength department. A couple players have just bounced off of him.

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

Uhhhh.... Randell? Punching a dude's head into the ground is not a good way to not be a dickhead.

PedroSpecialK · Sep 20, 2015

To be fair, Thompson had run him from behind into the glass a second earlier. I'm fine with him responding

LogansDad · Sep 20, 2015

No problem with responding, but once the dude's head is on the ground it's better to lay off, at least in my opinion.

There's like no chance it's tradeable is there. I suppose a girl can hope.

Koko looks good

What's he gotta do to stick? Shithead and Talbot both fall off a cliff or something? Would love to see him get a legit shot.

Yeah, that's fair. I'm kind of meh about that kind of stuff, I feel like guys on all teams do it at this point.

Sexton with a reverse Paille.

I think his best shot is a top 9 injury. I don't think they'd put him on the 4th line regardless of how he plays this preseason.

Yeah, that would be my bet.

My thoughts from the game:

-- Smith and Gustavson looked good. They were solid all game, although Smith looks like he's better controlling rebounds.
-- Spooner looked good. Hayes was solid. He had a great screen on the first goal.
-- I thought Connolly looked like crap. Felt he was a step slow, out of position and did not seem very engaged.
-- Koko looked fast and crisp.
-- Colin Miller looked good. I liked his skill set live for the first time, and that hip check was great.
-- DeBrusk was lost and slow and times, but around the net you can see the natural skill. Thought he had really good instincts in close.

Can't recall much else, but I would really like to see more out of Connolly if he's going to play top 9 minutes. I also was not a huge fan of him with Spooner.

Griffith out 3-4 weeks might help a little.

LogansDad · Sep 21, 2015

Dammit, I thought he looked pretty good last night, too.

The Napkin · Sep 22, 2015

Our tickets are available for tonight if anyone is interested and can make it down. Half a pizza and a case of beer or something like that.

Roster for tonight's game against Washington. I'm not sure if there is any live coverage.

Beleskey - Krejci - Pastrnak
DeFazio - Khokhlachev - Senyshyn
Vatrano - Czarnik - Ferlin
Blidh - Kelly - Hickman

Krug - McQuaid
Arnesson - K. Miller
Morrow - Casto

Subban
McIntyre

Not sure which goalie starts. Either way, I assume they both play.

Koko gets another look along with DeFazio.

Bummer if it's not on or being streamed anywhere. I'd like to take a look at Vatrano, and see whether Pasta has added any weight to his frame.

Over Guapo Grande · Sep 22, 2015

Heard on TSH that they will run the 3 v 3 overtime today, win/lose/draw. Is that/has that been the case in all preseason games?

LogansDad · Sep 22, 2015

Boston market only!!??? F that noise. I'd love to see that top line in action tonight :colbert:

It's not the best, but it works.

That didn't last long.
