BrooksBurner Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 He was just the next man up probably. Who else did you have in mind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 was on the first PP unit last night. Can someone explain to me why? Strome got benched. Chytil is on the 2nd PP unit. /thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
josh Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 was on the first PP unit last night. Can someone explain to me why? I think Strome was benched for his play on the SH goal against. He didnt really skate, half-assed an attempt to knock the puck away, and stood and watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 sure but why Howden? he didn't deserve it over others. I was so close to making a thread last week about Howden being the Kreider replacement. But I couldnt bring myself to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He (Howden) certainly didn't look out of place out there on the PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBrowningPI Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 He did set up the good screen on one of ADAs goals, iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 he didn't? Not from where I was sitting... Rotated nicely stayed in his rotational spot moved the puck quickly and accurately went to the net and was in front of ADA's goal as that one PP just elapsed as I said...he didn't look out of place. He sure as hell was a better screen than a particular Free agent we currently have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puck Head Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 sure but why Howden? he didn't deserve it over others. Yet he looked fine.

RangersIn7 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 He got 90 seconds of PP time in 1 game because Strome got benched and he didn?t take PP time away from anyone else. He?s averaged 21 seconds of PP time per game this season, coming from a handful of games where he?s seen some time. It?s a 1 game anomaly vs one of the league?s worst teams.

Dunny Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Can’t wait until Howden scores huge playoff goals That the kinda guy I see. 10-15 in regular season, the Dave Lowry in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBrowningPI Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Howden is a late bloomer. I really think he hasn't really shown his true value as a player and it will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersIn7 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Howden is a late bloomer. I really think he hasn't really shown his true value as a player and it will come. Hard to say he’s a late bloomer at 21 and 100 games into his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Yeah, I was thinking the same thing when Quinn had him on 6 on 5 down a goal in the final minutes in a game last March. He sizeable and potentially could be a good screener and garbage collector on the PP, but I wouldn't use him on the PP too often. Here and there won't hurt. Kreider is the only guy who really can play that role on this team and he can't play the whole PP. He does have the potential to be a late bloomer (what did Adam Graves look like after 100 NHL games?) but it is getting to the point where I really expect to see more flashes of the big potential future.

I don't think it's big. A high-end ceiling for Howden is like...Sami Pahlsson with some bite. There's literally nothing wrong with that out of a high 20s 1st round pick.

RangersIn7 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I hope what you're saying is "it's not late. It's early." I?m certainly not saying he?s ?bloomed? It is early He?s still developing as a player and while I don?t think he has a high ceiling, he can still improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I’m certainly not saying he’s “bloomed” It is early He’s still developing as a player and while I don’t think he has a high ceiling, he can still improve. Right. What I meant is, when you say "Hard to say he’s a late bloomer at 21 and 100 games into his career", he's still very young. It read to me like you might be saying 21 is old haha.
