Timing for losing a Lindy is not great. Onwards though.
When it rains, it pours. If this guy performs well, then what? Who do they send back down?
It sucks but injuries are to be expected. If they didn't happen then we would never have seen Lohrie become a regular
terrible news. maybe osterle can help the PK.
Maybe the new guy will provide a spark. Time will tell !
it'll effect them but not as much as a lack of scoring.maybe they shouldn't have stupidly traded sequin and whiffed it at the disastrous 2015 draft.all busts!
Mason will step up he's a good hard working kid
Sometimes when young players are not expected to do much, they defer to the veterans. Now that Hampus is going to be out for a while, Lohrei may and should be freed to utilize his talents more. He's still going to make some mistakes, but that's how you learn. I would pair him with Carlo to minimize the damage. Oesterle and Wotherspoon should be the third pair, McAvoy and Dadonov the first.
at least oesterle isn't infected with the " bruins flu. " maybe he will be able and motivated to clear the front of the net and stay out of the box.
Oh right. I felt like it was just too easy that they finally put him on the PP. Just felt like something was gonna go wrong.
Montgomery has the injuries wildcard to save getting fired?
Yeah it sucks Lindholm going down but injuries happen and part of being a contender is being able to win despite injured players.
Oesterle I expect will be alright. He has been around enough to know what his role will be.
I am hoping this is the opportunity Lohrei needs to get more minutes and shine. I think Lohrei has the potential to be a high scoring defenseman. He has shown great skill with the puck. I think his liability is defensively. Let him learn on the fly I say, too much upside with this guy to be half way about it. Play him and play him more. He has great instincts for when to attack and pinch etc. Take the reigns off already and let him play his game. He can't learn how not to get beat defensively until he gets beat defensively LOL
Good luck to Osterle. This is Mason's opportunity to show us what he's got. And oesterle to show us whether he would be ready for playoffs.
McAvoy better be a good boy. The coordination and success of the defense is going to rest on his shoulders whether he likes it or not.
And we'd better hear from Brando BIG TIME
I can't shake that "ugh".
This bear doesn't like this at all. We can hear Hampus during games. He's always talking.
The great communicator.
There's a lot of little stuff he does that goes unnoticed
For the first time this season, now I am worried about making playoffs.
we're talking about a knee
After he's 100% again, it'll be another month for Hampus to get up to speed.
The rest of the team better wake the hell up!
It's only hockey but, this isn't going to make my week better.
☹️
Thanks for the update.
Yeah We definitely couldn't tell that Monty's not irritated with the media lol "weeks, plural" lol😅
I love to see how many people complained about Matt grezlik I know that's not how it's spelled but that's how talk text spells Matt's name but he did so much on the power play and the penalty kill and offensively defensive then now they're having trouble finding somebody to replace him
Fractured knee cap! Not good
Unfortunate to lose him but injuries happen. Opportunity for Oesterle to step up and contribute. Also a chance for Lohrei to get a run of games and try and secure his roster spot. We'll see what happens tonight
Hampus broke or fractured a bone. 6-8 weeks we just lost him for. Oh boy. He has carried this team so much. Last year he won game 7 against Toronto singlehandedly and he's a goddamn DEFENSEMAN. He scored the tying goal, then made the genius pass to get the puck in by bouncing it off the board to a spot where Pasta could grab it and get in alone behind the D. When anyone talks bad about Hampus, I get pissed. Of all the players on this team, Hampus is the last that deserves to get shit. I will throw hands with someone that is talking trash about Hampus.
If he’s out long term this opens up the opportunity for them to trade for a top six winger
Hampus Lindholm has the coolest stick. He literally scrapes the paint off the bottom 8” of the stick to make it white with white tape. Imagine the time put into each stick
