There was some squawking on here about his leadership when they kept losing. Schenn got in a couple fights (but didn't snap out of his goalless draught) and people started saying he should've gotten the C. I like Schenn of course, but ROR is a great captain.

81I haven't watched Kostin's KHL games. But I've read reports that Kostin has been playing really well, with lots of energy and lots of good hitting, and creating offence during his team's run through The KHL Playoffs. I think that that kind of play, strong and relentless on the forecheck, driving the net , and even getting back on defence, as a scoring forward, can help The Blues. He's been scoring goals close in, near the crease.BlueinNy wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 2:51 pmHave you watched many games ? Tell us more, its been a Klem drought since he got drafted . Really want to to see this kid on The ice.Robb_K wrote: Fri Apr 30, 2021 2:35 pmI like him best when he plays his heavy game.

Kerber was talking about Kostin getting in there. Wouldn’t it be something if he could spark the team even more? It’s shit like that you need to make a Cinderella story.

82Tim Taylor was alluding to his NHL style of play in that Athletic article. Basically stating he’s adopted a north/south game and has no problem wanting to go through people.

93Walman having a heck of a 2nd period.
He’s a D man with the skill of a forward.

94Walman is the real deal, he'll be a permanent fixture next year, book it.

95Sorry, I didn't expect no GTD tonight, so thought this was tonight's game. I've now started a genuine 5/1 game thread, so, you all can join me there.
