SMASH THAT LIKE DORKS!
Lehky….most underrated. No doubt.
Lehky, Sammy G both under rated
So many people seem to think G is too bad to even be an AHL player and it's purely cause of his height
He is amazing at what he does
He isn't elite but he's a solid top 4 D
Of course I’m going to choose Artturi, my favorite. I had a good analogy for him and his role on the top line recently: he’s the starting zone of an avalanche (like the actual natural disaster). Avalanches tend to start off small, and then grow until they are this gigantic thing that is just ripping down the mountain; that part is Nate and Marty. Nate and Marty are fast, electric, and truly are like the force of nature the team is named after. BUT, it all begins with that starting zone, Art: he gets the puck to where it needs to go, which a lot of the time is in Marty or Nate’s hands (or I guess, sticks). And usually nothing can stop him once he gets going – I mean the amount of times he’s beaten 2 or more guys on the boards or in front of the goalie with his size is absolutely incredible in my eyes.
Coach loves Drury. It’s gotta be for the defense. Faceoffs I think are huge to our success.
I love Josh Manson's penalties, I want opposing players to be terrified to share the ice with him at all times.
I have always said that Lehky has been underrated, BUT, recently he has been getting attention, even nationally, as being a great player.
