I wonder what percentage of first round picks excel in the NHL. Those expectations are quite suspect IMO. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was kind of shocking to see how few games these guys played. What was even more shocking was how many GP's were played by 2nd and 3rd rounders from the same drafts. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was kinda saying it “tongue in cheek” since it's been widely known he has had his fair shared of struggles. https://www.secondcityhockey.com/chicago-blackhawks-2022-23-nhl-regular-season-recap-connor-murphy-player-review/ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be surprised if it's actually a proto and not a different model Bauer under. You think he'd jump from an old trigger to a special edition sub 360 gram stick?

Interesting to see him use them in games though. Practice, that is usual for many players, but using something new in a game is not common. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xstartxtodayx 343 Report post Posted November 14, 2023 I think a white cuff would've been great, kind of how the Flyers do it now which looks so so good. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flip12 708 Report post Posted April 18 Just noticed Doughty's got 55-Flex lace extenders. Is this his way of dealing with the switch from (semi-)soft shell to hard shell Vapors? He now contends with Jagr for the all-time Frankenskate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this his way of dealing with the switch from (semi-)soft shell to hard shell Vapors? He now contends with Jagr for the all-time Frankenskate. Any idea where to find those these days? I've been looking for a new pair for years. The 55flex website doesn't exist any longer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
