clarkson was left wide open on the powerplay to get two shots and then rozy “attempting” to backcheck basically played the puck into the net.

you know that small hole by the armpit, yeah that one, that appeared as Hank was lying down? It squeezed through there. Tough goal.

All this hate on Rozsival already? Maybe if the pre-season started a little later, the post-hockey stress we’ve all been through would’ve blanked our previous memories. Damn scheduling.

man grachev is beast..

and johnson looks very good too.. good pick up

Grachev - I can't see game

After 2 games any wild thoughts/guesses on what kind of future producer this kid could be a few years down the road? 20 goals, 30 goals, 40 goals? Does he look like he could be better than Cally? Thanks!

by Toad McGee on Sep 16, 2009 9:25 PM EDT reply actions  

so far

not enough to tell.. but so far from his passes he looks like a 70 assist guy haha..

2 awesome passes so far.. wicked wrist shot to..

OT!!

by Moshe52792 on Sep 16, 2009 9:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

down the line he definitely has 30 goal skill, his playmaking is as good as his goal scoring. as for comparing him to cally he has more skill and is twice the size but no one works harder than cally.

by Michael Gleich on Sep 16, 2009 9:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

best thing about grachev is he is excellent on the PK as well and with his skill he is a threat to go the other way.

by Michael Gleich on Sep 16, 2009 9:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

Definitely a 30 goal/year potential. His hands are fantastic. Great speed.

although wouldnt mind that.. girardi is in the middle..

not offensive or defensive so he could play with anyone..

gilroy is offensive.. staal is defensive.. could be a nice pairing i think

by Moshe52792 on Sep 16, 2009 9:39 PM EDT reply actions  

but girardi plays the same side so cant pair them.

girardi could play with mdz or redden
