Recap of Group Play and Predictions for the Elimination Round
Listen now
Description
In this week’s episode of The Stripe, Greg takes a closer look at all 7 faceoff units and breaks down the team’s first four games through Group Play. Whipsnakes powerhouse, Joe Nardella has absolutely blown Greg away, as well as the competition, in this Championship Series. Greg states that Joe is without a doubt the MVP through the first four games. Nardella’s dominance at the stripe has been off the charts and he’s got the stats to prove it. Meanwhile, the biggest surprise that we’ve seen so far is the lack of production from lone Chaos faceoff guy, Tommy Kelly. Kelly was expected to have a standout year not just because he has the fastest hands in the league, but also after putting in the work this offseason and dropping nearly 30 lbs. As we look ahead to the elimination round, Greg talks through adjustments that should be made and gives his predictions as we head into Tuesday night's showdown.  Greg Gurenlian, widely considered the greatest faceoff man of all time, has traded in his pads for a mic this summer. Leveraging his experience on the field, coaching expertise and media savvy, Gurenlian will bring a new era of coverage to the position that he’s helped pioneer. In The Stripe, Greg will chat with the top faceoff athletes in the sport, breakdown matchups, and analyze game performances.  Please rate and review and leave a question you'd like us to ask an athlete on future shows.
