It’s “Calder”

I’d be happy if Broberg scored half that and showed more leadership/picks his spots to show he can’t be intimidated.

Hey bleedr no need to be the Grammar police bro. I know you like to stroke your ego by thinking you are right but now body cares bro nobody cares

A spelling mistake is an error in how a word is written, while a grammar mistake is an error in how words are combined to form a sentence or phrase.

Nobody gives a sheet lol that's the point i am trying to make to you. LOL you display all the signs for a narcissist lol

But you, too, made a mistake trying to make a point. When you respond to this and keep following it screams caring…a looot.

Mailloux competes with Snuggerudd for the Calder, posting 10+ goals and 200hits with 3 or more fights and a +10 w/ 17min per night.

This rubs off on Broberg, who plays the season with eyes of aggression to go with a calming poise mimicking Fowler, from whom he gains much wisdom.

Faulk, having no choice, plays as the Wolfman he is inside for extended periods this season in order to hold onto his top-4 spot.

Parayko, with new ambitions in his heart (and also feeding off of Mailloux), wanting to truly be the top dawg and silence the voices of the Asylum, brings back the viciousness in front of the net he once embraced in 2019, continues to punish opponents with stick and body along the boards and in the corners, fully embraces the "no remorse/seek and destroy" weapon that is his slapshot, and returns to form the true essence of his long, powerful strides that made him a joy to watch as a young buck, who is now fully matured into a wonderful stag capable of leading the team in a variety of ways.

Thomas stays healthy and shoots the puck when he should, potting 30+ goals, exuding a higher level of confidence leading to increased success, and performing fewer eye-to-the-sky moments of dissatisfaction.

Holloway stays healthy.

Schenn rebounds with the revived spirit of a winning team on the way up, demonstrating increased fitness as evidenced by a return to form in his skating.

Neighbours continues to do his thing, perhaps still being heavily targeted by opponents, but takes the next step with a 55+ point season while continuing to grow as a fan favorite and show why he should never be traded as a player who could become our very own Brad Marchand type.

Suter is given the opportunity Army talked about and puts up 50 points with stellar 2-way play, particularly playing well on special teams.

Sunny earns a contract extension by continuing to show poise and smarts, always being in the right place, and coming into the season with improved skating, now years past his last big injury.

Bjugstad realizes he can't be so soft or we'll run him out of town like the last lazy big body (Hayes), and turns out to be a quality vet signing on the cheap who can play anywhere in the bottom-6.

Tucker proves he's not a fluke and is here to stay, at least a little while.

Texier is able to put together a legitimate season, just in time for a new contract.

Joseph finds purpose in practice.

Toro and Walker continue to do their thing, battling hard for that next paycheck...

Dean and Dvorsky (who may even earn a spot out of camp) tear up the American League and get their chances. Kaskimaki also gets his chance. Stenberg is right there but lower in the pecking order. We see Lindstein at some point as well.

Carbonneau improves his overall game and develops leadership skills, leading his team deep in the Q.

Kyrou puts on a fantastical regular season display, scoring 100pts with a top-10 performance, helping to put at ease those who want him traded, as we can live with a top-10 scorer who helps the team make the playoffs by living off the work of his teammates without requiring a franchise record win streak to end the season.

Buch plays a full 82 game season at a PPG clip while maintaining and building on his gumption and two-way play, including more consistency and fewer/shorter periods of staleness and noticeable frustration.

The team is in fewer critical 6 on 5 situations due to being up by 3+ goals late in games more often, or quickly buries one in the empty net so as to avoid the onslaught.

The PP looks like a professional team with scoring threats and confidence.

Binner and Hofer push for the Jennings.

Marchand?

Yes, Brad Marchand, a smaller player who gets under opponents' skin and plays with physicality, who, after scoring similarly to Neighbours' first seasons, went on to become a top scorer for his team and in the league. Neighbours could be our own Marchand type.

I'd be ok with that. As long as he does more of the scoring and less of the slew footing and licking people. Especially the licking. I'd have given almost anything to see someone bust him on the chin when he was licking someone.

Hey, this is an Optimism thread. Sure, I'm optimistic Neighbours will put up 980 points in 1100 games, have a 100 point season, and someday be sitting at +285.

Can I hedge bets and still claim optimism? I know, he said Marchand TYPE.
