Brief Intro to the Recognition Thread:
Thanks to everyone who helped finding a name for this - this particular one was the simplest and most straight forward.
The point of this is to applaud players who have exceeded your expectations or had an exemplary night etc. etc. Once a recognition thread is created, people can go back to the thread to applaud them (it can be a long while in between recognitions for some players).
Any member can do this for any player on any team at any time. If you're a Hawks fan like Dave and you want to give a shout-out to Dave Bolland for example - feel free. You might not get the number of comments that you would about a Sens player, but in time, that's hopefully something that will change.
Okay, so I'll start this off with Ryan Shannon. I want to recognize and applaud what Ryan Shannon is bringing to the table for the Sens. He has blazing speed, but most importantly I love the way he uses it. He pressures defenders in their own zone which results in what must be a team lead in takeaways. He's also quite good at reading the play and positioning his stick to either intercept a pass or deflect it.
The other things he brings are an excellent skill set - probably a skill set that's vastly underrated. He's a hard worker, but it's his wrist shot and passing abilities that make him a threat to notch a point on every shift. Is it that Nick Foligno and Mike Fisher are playing that much better, or is it that Ryan Shannon was placed on the 'FFS Line'?
For his tenacity and the amount of fun it is to watch him, I give the inaugural Recognition Thread to Ryan Shannon.
Keep it up Ryan!! :KKK:
