Credit to Frolik for burying the tap-in, but that was poor D from Rosen...failed to block the pass AND failed to tie up Frolik although he was right there.

Rinaldo can play! But you always get the feeling he’s on the edge of madness.... just waiting for the switch to flip

Someone made the comparison in the GT... Rinaldo is Ville Niemenen 2.0. Kind of nuts but also has a bit of game.

I talked a lot of #### about Rinaldo when he got signed, but he's starting to win me over. Guy is a lot more skilled than I gave him credit for.

If Looch can be a 10g/10a guy bringing the physical presence he is known for, he's over paid by $2m, but he's still a viable NHL player. Pleasantly surprised to see him turn it around.

Lucic: 4 points in last 4 games
Rinaldo: 3 points in last 2 games
Rieder: 3 points in last 4 games

December has been great for the bottom 6ers.

When Rinaldo came to camp, he was the only one that actually wanted the team to sign. I hope he sticks because he brings a lot of energy to a team that sometimes gets pushed around too much.

Can we add Talbot to the thread too? He’s looked great in his last 2 wins.

All the newcomers are really starting to contribute. To think we thought the off season was dull.

Thought it was interesting Hamonic almost fighting to defend Rinaldo . Guys are fighting for eachother on this team and that's awesome

So much for "too many guys with Oilers stink on this team". They're the ones leading the charge of late.

Besides, everyone knows there's a bounceback effect after playing for the Oilers. This was to be expected to some degree.

Rinaldo, don't look now, has matched his NHL point total from last year in 18 fewer games.
