Hope he continues to play well.Colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17180148209692109520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-17888127564381301622012-10-01T09:47:58.162-06:002012-10-01T09:47:58.162-06:0024,800 page views for September, breaking the prev...24,800 page views for September, breaking the previous high of 17,000 last september.<br /><br /><br /><br />TigerTurfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359764110928059937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-49829290301362509042012-10-01T06:39:48.419-06:002012-10-01T06:39:48.419-06:00@anon 12:37

I am not sure what you have against Kyle Becker, but if you are the same annon from last year, listening to your comments it sounds like you might have a vested interest in trying to clear a spot for some one you might know. It also appears you might have a history with Mr Becker. Maybe we shouldn't let personal feelings cloud the judgement of what is best for the team.. I have watched a very calm, well positioned defencemen, with an amazing break-out pass. This kid kind of reminds me of a young Nicklas Lidstrom.Walkernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-16432419720541639502012-09-30T21:55:35.905-06:002012-09-30T21:55:35.905-06:00Hey Colin, I think Anonymous was speaking about de...Hey Colin, I think Anonymous was speaking about defensively. When he says watch the video highlights. He gives good credit to Becker offensively. Pretty sure he is talking about Becker's play in front of his own net. Becker doesn't have any sticks tied up in front of his own net in the last couple of games WHERE there is a goal scored against us. Anonymous is right if that's what he is talking about. <br /> On the other hand , I like what he is doing on the PP. and there are some good redirects by our forwards, after Becker has put it towards the net. The goal scored by Becker on the one timer is very high, and would IF he shoots it consisitantly high off the one timer would make the forwards wary lol. All in all, Tigers are playing good hockey so far. Hopefully, they can keep it up when they go out West. There are a couple of teams out west that look like they may provide a better game than the last couple of opponents.

Last year i believe he suffered a wrist injury which put him on the outside looking in with Jensen and Lewington securing the spots before he was fit to play. We now have a very good young crop of defencemen who will only improve with the playing time they are getting.Orange bloodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-10158154869103992462012-09-30T19:17:22.638-06:002012-09-30T19:17:22.638-06:00This is a question out of left field but is Langha...This is a question out of left field but is Langhammer still wearing Bunz's old pads or he happen to get the exact same ones that Bunz had at the start of last season??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-4246737142699249522012-09-30T18:18:44.079-06:002012-09-30T18:18:44.079-06:00he has broken up a ton of 2 on 1's already as ...he has broken up a ton of 2 on 1's already as well <br />but i mean if you dont think Bredo is good defensively Anon 12:37, then your hockey IQ is clearly not intelligent enough to break down hockey playsJosephnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-83143365403074341942012-09-30T15:01:12.825-06:002012-09-30T15:01:12.825-06:00@ anon 12:37

I don't want to sound rude here but I think your barking completely up the wrong tree.<br /><br />The goal he scored was a one-timer. If you've ever played the game you would know how difficult it is to rocket a shot top corner off a one-timer.<br /><br />Becker has done an outstanding job at getting shots through to the net. 8/10 of his shots are perfect low shots that find their way to the net.<br /><br />The goal Miles Koules scored was a deflection from Kyle Becker's Point shot.<br /><br />Last night Becker broke up a dozen of Regina's cycles along the boards just by himself.<br /><br />If you watch him on the ice you will see his excellent positioning that shows he has that 5th sense that not every Dman at this level possess.<br /><br />He is poised and sees the Ice Very well and does an excellent job at making a first pass out of the zone.<br /><br />IMO he is the type of player that has an excellent shot at getting an NHL contract. In fact I would put money on it.TigerTurfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14359764110928059937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-12494124775337968432012-09-30T14:41:47.166-06:002012-09-30T14:41:47.166-06:00Watched hilights as you suggested.

Beckers low shot to post allowed cox to tip in a goal on Friday, his low shot later on Friday allowed bredo and Leir to direct it to Cox who scored... Funny all three were in front of the net and were not hit in the head. Beckers low shot on net was deflected by Koules for a goal in Sat game. He was not hit in the head either! Why the hate on for Becker? Seems to me like he gets it. The two times this year he has actually taken a one timer from the point resulted in goals right under the crossbar. Most of his shotsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-85336921914795667832012-09-30T12:37:03.869-06:002012-09-30T12:37:03.869-06:00Becker defensively doesn't get it. If you know...Becker defensively doesn't get it. If you know the game, you will understand what i'm talking about. In brief, have a look at the videos of the highlights, when he is on the ice. Being in front of the net, and NOT tying up a stick or your man, will not keep you in the top two pairings long. Offensively, it's great to see him get some points...but before we give him too much credit. The shot he scored on from the point is a poor shot taken. Dmen are told and encouraged to shoot for the pads. How the heck are forwards expected to go to the net, when someone is teeing off when the puck is 3 1/2 feet off the ice?Again, great to see him getting some points, but know it is early in the season. <br /> Great to see Hunter putting up some points as well.<br /> Three wins and a loss, and one of the top defensive forwards in the league is a dash 2??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-69256220171520850102012-09-30T11:51:48.079-06:002012-09-30T11:51:48.079-06:00Regarding your comment on Kyle Becker I believe he...Regarding your comment on Kyle Becker I believe he had some kind of injury last year that kept him from playing most of the season.CatFannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-6555977469197176482012-09-29T23:20:49.963-06:002012-09-29T23:20:49.963-06:00They need a big forward now that Kessy is goneThey need a big forward now that Kessy is goneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328410439347632491.post-45064287581422463772012-09-29T23:15:10.524-06:002012-09-29T23:15:10.524-06:00Every year they seem to surprise us!Every year they seem to surprise us!Orange bloodnoreply@blogger.com
