[TheDaysOf 04]

Poor decision by Hedman. That's the kind of play that leads to a breakaway the other way.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

We are down by 3 and Byrd or Todd haven't come by to cheer and throw tomatoes at us peasants from their high horses. What gives?

 

[JTBF81]

Where was the praise?

JJ sucks

"They've had like 5 good chances..." They failed on the power play and the pk, didn't bury one on an open net, many, many wide shots again, and a few big name players have looked absolutely meh. Again, they haven't played well in many facets tonight, and I'm not interested in moral victories as they lose yet another road game.

 

[Master P]

On a scale of 1-10 where 1 is trade everyone and 10 is Cup is ours.

Where are we tonight folks?

 

[These Are The Days]

My God. Like I know they have a legitimate reason to be tired right now but I swear they're the most tired team in the league. No off-season. Tired. Won a Cup. Tired. Full off-season. Tired because they aren't used to it. Play a full schedule. Tired. Have a break. Tired from getting broken in. It's getting old man. I'm tired. Of it.

Tonight isn't the end of the world but they need to put something together before the season gets away from them.

Like a 5. They're obviously exhausted and there's no reason to freak out. But shit man I swear there's always some problem with these guys. It's like there's no such thing as a normal day for them anymore

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Smith even congratulating Watson for that last punch.

 

[Master P]

Good fight.

This is where having a lack of depth hurts.

Used to be able to rely other guys when the big dogs aren't at 100%.

Ah so you can't differentiate observation and praise. So you can't point out things without you shaking your fist and yelling at the moon for being bright. Its been a frustrating season for sure, but holy hell man, smoke a joint or something. This game was nowhere near the shittiest efforts they put out this year. Like I said, if Saros wasn't playing, this game would probably be 4-3, but here we are. There are games where you are right and they are dogshit, but this isn't one of those games.

Maybe its because i am comparing shit to shit and this shit isn't as bad as their normal shit, but seriously I think you need a step back from hockey at this point. You can't be impartial or see any good anymore.

 

[Master P]

ABB so close, that would have been an amazing goal.

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

"I'm 'bout to pull this bitch..."

 

[Master P]

EMPTY NET LETS GOOOOOOOOOO

Somewhere in the middle. Just looking at tonight, it hasn't really been that bad, but hard to grind out a road win when you know JJ is going to let in 3-4 goals EVERY game. Special teams, which have been good for the Bolts all season have let them down tonight, but 5 on 5 Id argue it's been evenly split all night. Going back to the comments made after the Dallas and Pittsburgh wins, the Bolts have really eliminated a lot of the self inflicted wounds. Tonight's been no different. That's a positive moving forward with Vasy in net to clean everything else up.

 

[Brie]

I'm still not sure if empty nets works well in our favors, I feel like the team becomes really focused on not also passing the puck in their own net (Stammer did that once) so they can't focuse 100%

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Serge what happened there?

 

[Master P]

I know people aren't about to blame serge for them scoring an empty net goal right?

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Pull him again or no balls.

Not his fault at all for what happened in the offensive zone, but a poor decision to get flat footed and leave his side of the ice. By his emotions, he knew it too.

-14

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Running out of time to keep Kuch's assist streak going

 

[Brie]

Oh

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Not quite Alfredsson shooting the puck at Scott Niedermayer. Looked like an accident

 

[bov]

That is absolute gutless trash by Watson

 

[BoltsFanSinceDay1]

Not quite Alfredsson shooting the puck at Scott Niedermayer. Looked like an accident

Is he ok? My feed died with him all crumpled on the ice. And who shot that?

 

[bov]

Coop called out Evan Bouchard last year when he did the same thing late in a game. Doubt he's OK with what just happened there.
