GDT: Babe Winkelman is back from his fishing trip (Leafs @ Canes)

[Big Daddy Cane]

Great goalie duel.

Kuznetsov got bumped for Drury late in the 3rd with the lead.

 

[VAcaniac]

So much winning!

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Another win where we definitely didn't play our best. Gotta get some kind of second wind here soon, because we still have some rough opponents on our schedule.

second wind?

The Canes are 9-1-1 in their last 11 and have points in 7 straight games.

Add in we have just finished a really rough part of the schedule and we finally get a breath. Just wrap up these next 3 games with a day break between each one and we get a 4 day break

Yes, they are. But if you're telling me you don't see obvious signs of fatigue in some of the more recent games, I'm not sure what to tell you.

 

[MisterDobz]

Wow, the site works great now….NOW THAT THEGAME IS OVER!

 

[HisIceness]

I watched a bunch of middle schoolers hunt for Easter eggs. Did our boys hunt for a win?

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Yes, they are. But if you're telling me you don't see obvious signs of fatigue in some of the more recent games, I'm not sure what to tell you.

Have you seen the schedule or are we blaming the system again?

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Yes, they are. But if you're telling me you don't see obvious signs of fatigue in some of the more recent games, I'm not sure what to tell you.

I think you just like to complain about the team no matter what. If you are telling me that's not the case, I'm not sure what to tell you.

It's late in an 82 game season where they've all but clinched a playoff spot and are still winning. In prior years when they are going strong at the end of the seasons, fans complain about them getting burned out and not saving it up for the playoffs. When they aren't dominating but still win it's "obvious signs or fatigue".

I think some just like to complain no matter what.

I'm not sure where the complaint is?

- The Canes have had a tough schedule lately (True)
- The Canes have looked fatigued because of that (True)
- The Canes haven't played their best because of that fatigue (True)
- They need to find a second wind because they still have tough opponents left on the schedule (True)

Is hoping for a second wind a complaint to you?

A 2nd wind needed when understanding the fatigue is caused by a crazy schedule? The schedule also lightens up in intensity too

Yes. You regularly look for the negatives. They are 9-1-1 in their last 11 games and their only losses are a 1-0 loss and a weird SO loss.

Their 1st wind has been just fine.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

A 2nd wind needed when understanding the fatigue is caused by a crazy schedule?

Their next time to rest is after this Saturday's game, (4 days between games), so that would be the time to get the second wind. Which would be needed because after that break, they again play 3 games in 4 days.

I'm surprised there's so much uproar over the idea that the Canes look fatigued and could use a break, but to each their own, I guess?

To summarize: you think the Canes have broken wind?

 

[MisterDobz]

Don’t look now, but the canes are only 1 point behind in the president’s trophy race.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Don’t look now, but the canes are only 1 point behind in the president’s trophy race.

And they did that with only their 1st wind.

Im not uproaring. It not weird to question the statement after 5 years of many posters having this “system tires us before the playoffs” narrative though.

 

[MisterDobz]

Imagine where they’d be if they weren’t an ‘average’ team!

Nowhere did I say anything about the system.

My opening statement said "Another win where the Canes didn't play their best. Gotta get some kind of second wind, because we still have tough opponents on the schedule."

I don't see a complaint there. I don't see criticism there. It's literally just a factual statement and an expressed desire, both of which have also been expressed by RBA in his postgames lately, but f*** me, I guess?

To be fair i didn’t say you did question the system. In fact i asked if it was in reference to that.

I guess my questioning is being coupled with BBA’s sharper critique of the post.

In the end I don’t really think the team needs any 2nd wind because the schedule lightens up and becomes less intense.

that's what you get with adding "BOOM" to your username.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

I didn’t fully capitalize to help minimize the effects

 

[Svechhammer]

I think the HFB servers are in need of a rest far more than the Canes

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Missed this one but glad to see we won in regulation and Matthews didn’t score. No rioting tonight
