Description
Quick thoughts on the first two games before I go to bed.

1. Tyler Johnson looked decent in his game today. While I don’t agree with him at 1C in any capacity he looks like he’s got something in the tank.

2. Tried to watch Nylander on most of his shifts both today and last game. He looks out of it, not engaged, etc… but I’m not giving up on him, I have to much pride to do that.

3. Based on the first two games I think the wrong Jones bro got the 9.5x8 extension. Even if this is partly in jest, Caleb Jones was impressive, Seth had one good play all night (PK clear) and was mostly meh outside of a couple huge blunders.

4. Passing is still something this team struggles with, lots of forcing passes and low % plays. Some vets in general were less engaged.

I feel the same about Nylander. Dude's been invisible these past two games, he's gotta get it together.

We gave up our 1st round pick in a good future draft to get him too, despite having no guarantee of making the playoffs…

Our 1st and BoQ who I'm willing to bet becomes a solid #2 D man with the right partner as a #1. Would have been much wiser and cheaper to go after Lindholm who would've made a perfect partner for BoQ.

In the same boat, didn’t understand the need for Jones. CHI got incredible runs from Towes/Kane and co (3 cups) I realize neither one wanted to go through a rebuild so trade them 🤷‍♂️Build around Dach, DeBrincat, Kubalik, and others. Try and start a new run.

Jones had one bad preseason game, he will still be a good player. But that contract is terrible. In 4-5 years fans/management will be trying to figure out how to rid themselves of his contract.
