How is it physically possible to whip his hands that quick?

Gridin might just be a really good core piece. Trying not to count the chickens before they hatch, but he is looking like a really good pick.

Based on my analysis, there is a 53% chance, 8.5 times out of 10, that Gridin will be at the top 16% of the NHL. This is guaranteed 40% of the time.

This kids going to be an absolute beast, in my non-humble opinion (more likely than not.)

Absolutely insane shot - didn't even see it, live, took until about the 3rd reply before I had it tracked.

Still think he needs to start in the A, but those 2 goals have to have given the coaching staff pause. Regardless, he is a top 6 winger just waiting to happen.

The old hockey saying about needing to take a job to get one out of camp may just apply to Gridin, the Flames know they need to find goals on the roster and Matvei looks like he has the tools to deliver.

This team can't have enough finishers as it currently stands.

Let's lighten the burden on Wolf just a little, if we can.

Gridin has a rocket for a shot. He had a great game.

I’m betting some old guys will be leaving in the next year to make room for younger guys. Thinking Gridin will be one of them

Mickelson was saying some thing and he just said " I'm sorry , I didn't hear what you said . I'm still trying to find out what the hell Seattle's mascot is, send me messages if you know. That is an UGLY mascot if I've ever seen one." And the second was " I'm going to save Pat Stienberg alot of time. Pat dis not pick the stars 8n the arena tonight. If you wanna roast the person that did make it known but Pat didn't pick them. How do you play like that and not get a star ? Who is in charge in Seattle, roasts them on air. Let Pat know Seattle sucks"

Not gonna lie I totally forgot about Gridin until recently...forgot he was the first rounder from the Lindholm trade and just thought he was some older grinder based on the name alone for some reason.

Dude has crazy good scoring stats and it certainly looks like they might transfer...that SO is pretty special for a 19 year old I don't care if its preseason.
