I didnt see the first soft one super clearly but that second one was unacceptable in my book. <br /><br />Yeah it is the preseason and yeah everyone might not be firing on all pistons but those kinds of goals haunt you once regular season gets going. Hope Mase can get back on track and clean up some of those softies (glove hand last year anyone?)tomduryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17666377323051357057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-34908361574410111332009-09-28T13:34:14.601-04:002009-09-28T13:34:14.601-04:00From what I've seen, Brass shows every sign of...From what I've seen, Brass shows every sign of picking up where he left off last year. Watch out world!<br /><br />It's too bad he's not eligible for Rookie of the Year. If memory serves, 25 is the cutoff for games. I guess he'll have to work for the Hart this year ;-)the Jesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05182797516871739774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-46391897656426711902009-09-28T12:55:38.419-04:002009-09-28T12:55:38.419-04:00I was there last night too but I would classify a ...I was there last night too but I would classify a lot of those Filatov "hits" as "bumps". I just had to laugh a bit when I read the stat sheet and saw him credited with 4 "hits". <br /><br />Don't get me wrong though and mistake that as a knock against Filatov.. I'm glad he's sticking his nose in there and raising his competitive level -- I loved his game last night.<br /><br />It's not uncommon for the home team to be a little more liberal in the stats deparment - be shots on goal, hits, takeaways, giveaways, etc -- which I think was the case here.<br /><br />Home ice does and should have its advantages!!<br /><br />-LTLLTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15817321633985765198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-91243013037409599122009-09-28T11:39:43.441-04:002009-09-28T11:39:43.441-04:00@LTL: " I mean Filatov with 4 hits..?

He did makes some hits. And, his one-timer goal was superb. He is going to be fun (but, at times, frustrating like most "kids") to watch this season.<br /><br />I, too, was a bit disappointed with the play of our veterans. I was much more impressed with our "youngsters" especially in the Pittsburgh game. Lots of energy, movement, and excitment. The vets.....less so. I guess I can understand that, but only if they turn it up big time beginning this Saturday.CBJ_Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881421442156792110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-60241148213999406572009-09-28T10:52:17.286-04:002009-09-28T10:52:17.286-04:00Pahlsson 4 hits, Filatov 4 hits.

That's OK for one of them, and unacceptable for the other.<br /><br />I was there, and it was very pre-seasonish. My kids had a decent time, so there's that.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456185823681810367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-38827929482429359522009-09-28T10:39:16.771-04:002009-09-28T10:39:16.771-04:00No doubt, the vets played like pre-season.
