Anyone else watch(or go to) Negrin's debut as a Bronco against the Hitmen on sportsnet? Watched the game and kept a close eye on Negrin. Thoughts are as follows.
Kid is a terrific skater. Doesn't take many strides to get to where he wants to be. Likes to join the rush and because of his skating has no problem getting back defensively. Seems to like the wrist shot on net from the point. Got an assist this way and hits the net just about everytime. Quaterbacked the PP pretty well. Liked what I saw from him offensively. Defensively however I thought he struggled. New team though and a new partner which probably had a lot to do with that. Not overly physical and likes to pokecheck. As a result got burned a couple times by missing the pokecheck and allowing the player to skate by him. Hoping to see him again when the Broncos come to Edmonton later this season.
Interested in hearing others opinions if they got a chance to watch the game today.
