[AlphaCatalyst]

We had the chance to finish it in OT. Not finishing finished us.

 

[Todd1a]

Sustr is garbg. That is all.

Can we put him on waivers already

 

[TheSchmidt]

completely dominated that 3rd period and deserved 2 points.

thanks Sustr!

 

[Leonardo87]

Callahan? Seriously? ****ing Callahan? Arguably the worst shooter on our team?

Um dude, Callahan is good in Shoot outs. Please don't start not in a mood tonight . Lol.

 

[DFC]

It's a banked point in a back-to-back on the road with our backup in net. Not the end of the world. Still 5-1-1.

 

[Stammertime91]

Garbage. Not gonna win every game but we should've closed this one out. Had them on the ropes TWICE and failed to win.

I notice we won games without Sustr. First game back and his one moment of contribution leads to a Devils PPG and we lose in overtime.

Coincidence? I think not.

 

[Todd1a]

Callahan? Seriously? ****ing Callahan? Arguably the worst shooter on our team?

Well our 3rd shooter would have been drouin but they traded him

 

[These Are The Days]

Stamkos needs to spend the offseason with Kucherov in his garage. The 91-timer needs serious work

 

[Brie]

Just don' t play Sustr, at least not with a few minutes left and we're only up by one, that's on Cooper.

I thought Budaj did really well after the 1st, it was just to bad that they had already scored 3 goals already.

 

[These Are The Days]

Well our 3rd shooter would have been drouin but they traded him

Yeah but someone else like Johnson or Gourde wasn't a choice?

 

[FinnLightning26]

Meh, shootouts are complete lotteries and other than Point, our tries sucked ass. I'm happy with a point. Had a really good chance to get two but 5-1-1 start with two back-to-backs isn't bad at all.

Hedman should join them as well.

 

[Fabiobest]

 

[JoVel]

Callahan is ~30% in shootouts in his career. Johnson has been pretty bad and I don't know how Gourde has done in the AHL.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Beh. At least we got 1 point.

 

[FinnLightning26]

Hedman should join them as well.

Lock those three in Kuch's garage for next summer and we'll sweep the regular season and the playoffs.

 

[Stammertime91]

Beh. At least we got 1 point.

Well, technically we still got two points.

 

[Leonardo87]

He is over 40% I believe since joining Tampa with several game deciding goals. So um yeah go with the odds. Coop felt he was due since he had like 5 or 6 SOG tonight.

 

[TeslaCoilFan]

Well, technically we still got two points.

Hmm, you do have a point.

 

[PaulGG]

To many going in our net this year. This was winnable but can’t expect to continue to win 1 goal games like we have been, defense needs to get better.

 

[The Macho King]

Vasi in net we get two points. Sucks but true. Also I really think we should have forced it to 3 on 3 earlier - gave up our major strength there.

Sustr played way too many minutes, and did not play them well.

 

[Boltswin]

Bit disappointed, but at least we got a point out of it.

Vasi the sieve? You seem pretty confident

Edit: fwiw, I am semi joking. I was thinking though in the beginning of the game. You know who would make a good backup goalie? Vasi (if we had a different starter I mean)

 

[The Macho King]

Get yer hot takes here!
