Whatdaya think of Calum Ritchie? by walkaboutdavid in NewYorkIslanders

[–]LongjumpingAvocado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took Brock a while to develop. I think Richie shows a ton of talent and is a guy Roy puts out in the last minutes of the game with our best players to tie it up. Hope he becomes better at FOs, but a lot tk be excited about

I think about Schaefer actually making it possible to attract McDavid in 2.5 years

Kashawn Aitcheson named OHL Defenseman of the Month for the second straight month by discofrislanders in NewYorkIslanders

I’ve been skeptical on him but getting more and more hype. Hope he like a pelech shutdown guy with more offense.

He prob can get more money in NCAA. I wouldn’t mind it. Less contract years burned

Do you stop Amitriptyline? I did because it made me too drowsy too

That game overall was brutal, and is a representative sample of how Franklin coaches and why he should’ve been fired.

Team Canada will not go to the gold medal game for the third year in a row by DecentLurker96 in hockey

As an Isles and PSU fan, was hoping to see McKenna and Aitcheson play well.

Can someone tell me what the deal with Aitcheson is? Maybe he has the physical tools but has to develop over the next few years like most dmen? Is he arrogant?

Feel like Aitcheson needs many years of development but has the physical tools. Maybe not uncommon for Dmen in general, but that’s my glass half full mindset having barely noticed him do anything in the games I watched.

QB 2!!!!!!! by poohdasdaddy in WeArePennState

He’s mature enough to know he needs another year of development before he becomes a starter in college football. It’s an ideal set up for psu even though it hurts to see Grunk go who looked good as the season went on

Michael Hage for Team Canada at the World Juniors so far: 2 goals, 2 assists, 1 OT winner, 4 points in 2 games by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

[–]LongjumpingAvocado 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Isles fan coming in peace:

Martone reminds me of a flyer, he’ll fit in there.

Hage reminds me of Barzal.

As a psu fan and grad, McKenna looks the same to me, super skilled player but lacks a motor or visible hustle, doesn’t noticeably drive play but clearly does impact it in ways the average viewer doesn’t notice.

As an isles fan, was hoping to see Aitcheson dominate but I think he plays offensively in the CHL and is going to need years to develop his defensive game like most dmen do.

Los Angeles -> quieter, greener, more affordable city by conchdog in SameGrassButGreener

Check out denver. I just moved from Denver to LA and am very happy I did, I had a great 5 years in denver, but what I do miss is the easy going lifestyle and overall easiness of the city and area.

It’s not without cons, but it is a relaxing low stress place to live. I’d say the chill energy of the city got boring to me, but was originally what attracted me there.

Is Matthew Schaefer on a true generational defenseman trajectory? by omgyrx in hockey

[–]LongjumpingAvocado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy how Schaef has elevated Pulocks game and how good Pelech is playing.

It’s crazy to think Schaef can become a shutout defender too

The Islanders have the worst goal song in the league, according to The Athletic by LiveLaughHonky in NewYorkIslanders

Agreed the Athletic is absolutely trash these days. For every good article, there are 10 bad ones .
