Does no good to pull him. He needs work.Tuukka’s not starting the 2nd. I have to believe the only reason he’s still there is to spare him the skate of shame.
It does no good to embarrass him, either. What does he gain facing point-blank, wide-open shots?Does no good to pull him. He needs work.
Don't want to Patrick Roy him either, though.Does no good to pull him. He needs work.
Not this kind of work he doesn’t.Does no good to pull him. He needs work.
I bet he’ll give Rask the option.Not this kind of work he doesn’t.
Do they have xGF% for defence pairs? ‘Cause I can only imagine what 28-75 looks like.3.8% xGF for the Nosek line and 2.8% xGF for the Coyle line. Yikes.
5.84% from what I'm seeing.Do they have xGF% for defence pairs? ‘Cause I can only imagine what 28-75 looks like.
59% xGF is a decent opening period. Why'd the game start so late?
Willie O'Ree's #22 goes to the rafters tonight. Believe the ceremony is at 7:00pm and puck drop will be at 8:00pm. Unfortunatley, I believe Willie will not be in the building as he is taking precautions against covid.
I’d waive Forbort tomorrow, but Clifton is just as big a problem tonight.I know in a playoff game you can shelter your 3rd pairing defense pretty well, but no team that has any sort of playoff aspirations should be employing Derek Forbort.
And Butch put them together. Without staples in their pants.I’d waive Forbort tomorrow, but Clifton is just as big a problem tonight.
Maybe. I'm really hoping that those 9 games weren't just forwards 4-12 all going on a hot streak simultaneously. Because tonight looks like all of them going cold all at once.I guess after 9 games in 15 days I should’ve expected something like this after how physical that Nashville game was.
I see a bunch of guys reaching a lot, not skating, behind the play. Sometimes you’re just tired as a team. They have to get over it, and they will. That’s obviously no excuse for Clifton & Forbort that haven’t played.Maybe. I'm really hoping that those 9 games weren't just forwards 4-12 all going on a hot streak simultaneously. Because tonight looks like all of them going cold all at once.
This exactly. It sucks, I was hoping to see a good one, it happens. No need for anyone (looking at you Boston media) to start hammering the panic button. I’m sure the Idiocracy of Tuukka Haters will make themselves vocal here, but otherwise we should all just take a breath and move onto Thursday.This is just one of those games you chalk up to an aberration and move on to the next. It’s so bad there’s almost nothing you can do.
Yup.This is just one of those games you chalk up to an aberration and move on to the next. It’s so bad there’s almost nothing you can do.
