So a ceiling of a bad backup in the NHL huh?

Which isn't terrible considered Primeau was a 7th round pick.

Matthew Knies asked how good Auston Matthews is. “Pretty damn good. He’s not just the best goal scorer in the NHL but he plays defense too. He’s kind of the best overall player [in the NHL] in my eyes.”

OMG, the Oilers' coaching staff is going to cut this quote out of the Edmonton Sun, and they are going to clip it to the bulletin board, and the Oilers are going to use it as motivation!

Imagine a rookie saying something like that about his team mate?

Oh Lordy, I've got the vapours!

He’s good but that 5’10” skilled winger is a bit better.

Do they actually? I've not talked to any Blackhawks fans. They're gonna be in for a rude awakening.

I'm sure he'll be fantastic, but his defensive game isn't up there, yet.

I'm more posting it because someone whose opinion actually carries some weight agreed with me word for word, that a Bruins fan tried to mock.

Lol it’s a Chicago feed on FB that I never signed up for but comes across as “suggested” a lot. He apparently doesn’t want to be compared to McDavid since he’s his “own player”

I feel kinda bad for the expectations the guy has to live through, brought in essentially the same time they moved on from Toews and Kane lol

Thought you were talking about Matthews and the quote from Knies the first time I read this.

PP1

Matthews Marner Bertuzzi

PP2

Nylander Tavares Domi


Look okay?

Klinkberg Rielly for sure on D. throw in Lilly or McCabe and maybe a forward plays the point and makes room for Knies?

Depends on if the previous approach was Keefe’s or Dubas’ idea. Running 4 f with 1 d man. Maybe you’re right tho, 3 f and 2 d would add up the reason to sign Klingberg a bit more in my head lol.

He's definitely there to augment the offensive contributions from the backend though I've heard his defensive game is sub par. I think you're right he's definitely here to be on the PP cause from what I've read on him, the pk isn't his Forte.

(please don't ask why I typed all that out and only used one comma at the end)
