[Mercogliano] GG a déclaré qu’il s’agissait d’une compétition ouverte pour 3LD, mais a fait l’éloge de Libor Hájek aujourd’hui. « Il patine bien. Il a l’air fort. Il a l’air plus confiant cette année… Il a vraiment bien testé. Donc, tout va bien. Tout fait en sorte que ce gars est un bon joueur dans notre équipe de hockey.
GG has said it's an open competition for 3LD, but spoke highly of Libor Hájek today.
"He skates well. He looks strong. He looks more confident this year… He tested really well. So, everything's good. Everything's leading to this guy being a good player on our hockey team" #NYR

This should be a fun thread…
This can’t be real life
Not mad about this at all, Libor has been with this team for a while and has filled in when we are in tough spots. I think he should get a chance if he is looking good and testing well. McDonagh trade looks better too haha.
Nothing is decided yet and Jones and Robertson will get more looks.
Maybe libot is seeing the game at a faster pace than Jones. Sometimes that’s all it takes for one guy to win the spot over someone like Jones, especially in a more defensive 3rd pair. Should be very interesting to follow the competition now that it’s not so cut and dry for Jones
