And timo breaks the seal

25-10 in shot attempts in 1st…that’s more like NJD hockey

Akira Schmid gets the apple…now outscoring both teams captains on the season

Alex Holtz looking real good imo. VERY noticeable on the ice

Jack Hughes is unreal

(six 70-point players would be something)

Erik haula elite sniper

Brendan Smith continues to find new ways to let in goals

Won't go on the scoresheet but Holtz with a fantastic play

Alex Holtz 3 minutes and a goal. Nice

Notes:

-free alex holtz
-palat looked better
-toffoli feels like a passenger, wouldn't be the ones to give him a big contract
-Mercer still underwhelming but signs are there especially defensively
-Jack+Bratt+Luke are ridiculous as a 3 headed PP QB dragon
-I hate brendan smith
-I questioned giving bastian 1.35 mill before and I still question it. #bringbackboqvist
-Mcleod looks damn good and could be a legit long term 3C.
-vitek is average, just like we thought he was
-Haula looks good but may end up either a winger or 4C based on mcleods play and what we do with mercer

Mercer is in a slump…can see he is fighting through it. Not worried about him long-term.

Vitek was brutal tonight. That 3rd goal…oof.

Brendan Smith cannot connect on a pass coming out of d-zone. He just throws it out there. But his defensive game isn’t terrible.

Jesper Bratt is elite.

That bratter contract is such a steal. Would have liked to have gotten timo at 8.5 but oh well, still fair

Timo just waking up…

Jack is okay…and probably no big deal on that play. But would like to see someone step up…just to send message.
