GDT: 9/26/17 - 7:30PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Florida [Preseason Game 5]

[Felonious Python]

Not quite a sellout.

warm ups aren't a great representation of actual crowd size

Except in that arena.

 

[Leonardo87]

Not much going on, Vladdy made a bad turnover, Florida had a lot of chances but Vasy stood tall. Stamkos had a one on one but missed the net.

 

[DFC]

Only remotely interesting stat so far is Sustr's leading the team in icetime, followed by Serg.

Stralman penalty.

 

[DFC]

SOG suggests that was a pretty bad period for us. #HereWeGoAgain

Yeah, maybe it's a good thing we can't watch this game. lol.

 

[DFC]

Nah, I really want another look at Volkov.

Sustr's gonna get 22 minutes this game. Probably trying to ease Stralman back in.

Thanks for the update, are you at the game?

 

[Brie]

FLA scores less than a minute into the 2nd.

No. I am listening on the radio.

Dammit Brie you had to go and say it!

Panthers are up 1-0 Huberdeau with the goal

 

[DFC]

Koekkoek and Girardi get the minus, along with the top line.

Really wish I could see how KK vs. Serg is going.

 

[Leonardo87]

Cats all over Tampa. Tampa playing sloppy cant get out of their zone.

 

[Leonardo87]

Another PP for Florida, 2nd penalty for Point.

 

[These Are The Days]

According to Mishkin the Panthers are better than us at everything right now. Sounds like we are sleepwalking like usual

Ugh, hope we don't keep doing that this season and sleepwalk until january.

 

[DFC]

I'm not watching/listening, so take this with a grain of salt, but everything on the gamecenter feed about KK is negative right now.

 

[These Are The Days]

2-0 Barkov.

 

[Brie]

According to gamecenter we've only had 1 SOG this period, that's horrible.

 

[Leonardo87]

Good shift by the Conacher. Just missed. Drew a penalty.

 

[DFC]

PP coming. This is the most concerning thing to me. I don't know if we can get back to where we were last year on the PP without Drouin.

 

[DFC]

Looks like we're back to the Stralman-Stamkos connection, after several years of proof it doesn't work. Kuch-Hedman has to be the main unit.

And then Stammer hits the post.

 

[DFC]

Blank stat line for Volkov halfway through.

The dream is done?

 

[Leonardo87]

Problem is, his line-mates are just phoning it in it would seem. Don't think they even have a SOG at ES.

 

[These Are The Days]

I wouldn't read too much into it. We can say that about most of the team right now. All we're missing is some "We know we gotta play better" and it's back to status quo
