GDT: Biggest game of the season! Devils @ Canes

[Canes]

Hanifin is a weak ass player. He might skate well but everything else he does leaves something to be desired.

 

[Breakdowns]

This is on Peters, if he had a better faceoff guy in offensive draw, we could get position and make something happen, but Ryan has to take that of course. f***ing idiot.

 

[AD Skinner]

Hanifin takes one more stride and that puck is out of the zone. Zacha completely outclassed him in this game

 

[HisIceness]

3 crucial games. 1 point.

Same shit, different year.

 

[cptjeff]

Goddamn it.

On a related note, Ryan should never play center in the NHL again, especially during f***ing overtime.

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

[Svechhammer]

It's so fitting Ryan was on the ice for the winner

 

[Jerkob Slavin]

Losers. Derek “f-ing” Ryan taking a key face off with a minute left. Unacceptable, but completely predictable.

 

[Breakdowns]

Before these 3 games I said, we need at least 4 points, better would be 6 out of 6. We got 1. We are done once again.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Goddamn it.

On a related note, Ryan should never play center in the NHL again, especially during ****ing overtime.

If we can get a 2nd for him at the deadline we’ve gotta do it.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

This is on Peters, if he had a better faceoff guy in offensive draw, we could get position and make something happen, but Ryan has to take that of course. ****ing idiot.

this team is one of the best faceoff teams in the league

 

[hurricure]

Can’t blame anyone but Ward on that goal... we never get the timely saves


Well I blame everything on Peters... he should have saved that

 

[Joe McGrath]

Ryan had 2 shifts in OT and the Devils could’ve scored 3 or 4 times. If Francis doesn’t cut his ass Peters will just comtinue playing him. It’s a complete joke that guy is on the ice in any meaningful situation and I’ve been saying that since night f***ing one of the season when he embarrassed himself with no time left.

 

[Canes]

3 crucial games. 1 point.

Same ****, different year.

Don't worry, I'm sure Francis will draft another disappointment with our mid/high first rounder while a few players behind whoever he picks go on to be better players.

 

[TheBigKahuna]

One goalie made 40 saves.

The other made 17.

Go figure.

 

[tarheelhockey]

Hanifin got posterized there, but I encourage everyone to watch that shift back and keep your eye on Jeff Skinner.

 

[Joe McGrath]

**** yeah caught on tv

Also why is Cam letting in all these last minute OT goals.

Old and tired?

 

[dogbazinho]

Well I don't think Peters was given all the talent he needed but gd if he doesn't piss me off.

 

[Sens1Canes2]

Not worth my time.

I mean, they may well come back and win this game, even. It doesn't matter. The team isn't talented enough to win anything worth winning.

The sad part is they I think they're playing as hard as they can. They're just not good enough.

Exactly correct, which is why I lay almost all of the fault with Francis and almost none with Peters. I said it a week and a half ago, it’s a damn miracle they’re basically 1 point out of the playoffs. They have Jordan Staal as their best C, and Derek Ryan playing on an important scoring line. A gosh darn miracle.

 

[Svechhammer]

Peters started Darling. Peters put in Ryan with a minute to go in OT

Each is a fireable offense. Both is incompetent

 

[Canes]

Hanifin got posterized there, but I encourage everyone to watch that shift back and keep your eye on Jeff Skinner.

The guy who's the only reason we were in the situation to begin with? Maybe our Pejorative Slur coach shouldn't put him out with pylons like Ryan and Hanifin in OT then.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

I mean, what can you say?

The team, as constituted, just has zero margin for error. They have to play the system to perfection, every night, to be competitive. It's just not realistic.

It's especially galling that we have talent in the org in Charlotte, and we absolutely refuse to explore the value of that talent.

Enjoy 8th for a couple of days. Maybe the Islanders and BJs will continue to suck worse than we do.

 

[AD Skinner]

Skinner Slavin Aho Pesce mcginn Ward. Those are the only players/staff/anything involved with this team worth a shit. Everybody else is mediocre at best

 

[Breakdowns]

this team is one of the best faceoff teams in the league

What do you mean with that?

Ryan should not take that faceoff ever in that situation. If it was on the other side of the ice, I might be okey with that, but it was his tougher side. This is OT, and Peters made a wrong call. There were at least 2 better options at that situation.

 

[hurricure]

Don't worry, I'm sure Francis will draft another disappointment with our mid/high first rounder while a few players behind whoever he picks go on to be better players.

Man... in a room full of glum... you win glummiest
