lynxrattle Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Kähkönen could be a bit faster. He needs to be soundly aware of the situation to compensate for those long legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyShelf Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I think Brodin is the best D on the team by more than a hair...He can really move, pass and shoot. Does not get tired either. You don't see many guys that skate that well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmptyShelf Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 I see some Adam Oates passing vision and touch in Kaprisov. He can smoke it, feather it, 'no look' it, or saucer it very well for a young guy. This is an unexpected surprise, as I thought he was just a sniper when I saw him in the Olympics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynxrattle Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Just when I was going to comment about the contradiction between Brodin's defensive prowess vs. his lack of offensive prowess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClusterChuck Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 That shouldn't even count as a PP goal..Lol..They're back to their clueless powerlessPlay but a flutter and a doobis and we get a stat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaprizov was not this good playing for Team Russia. Now he's a standout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen him uncork some bombs too, yet Mgmt sure has taken a long time to utilize him more regularly offensively. The PP should only include Brodin, Spurg, and Dumba on D. Suter wastes too many opportunities with the lazy wrist shot, which is an easy glove by the tender, while the others put a bullet on net that creates dirty goals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has matured and adapted quite a bit. I still won't forget the 'Ovechkin special' one-timer from the other side to win Gold. You could see the ability, but also the 'It' factor that not every player has even then. I also saw a bit of the World Jrs when he ripped it up.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynxrattle Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 If they want to play Suter in PP, they would need a guy who can deflect pucks into the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been in awe of Brodin's skating ability alone. Plus he can bring the puck out of our zone and keep a play going. He also has good hands for shooting and like you said some Bomb ability. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmptyShelf Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 So, for $hits and giggles, I thought I would look up our other Swedish D drafted in Round 1 to see if he is developing at all. He is on Frolunda in the SHL. Not too bad. He looks like the 3rd D (& youngest) on team with improving (not 1st round level, however) stats. Maybe he will become a player instead of a wasted pick (love quanthockey.com): 13 Filip Johansson 20 D 37 5 5 10 10 -3 1 0 3 0.135 0.135 0.270 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
