If it's a groin Saros has 2 weeks to heal. I honestly trust Ingram

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Honestly if Saros is out I’d almost rather just not make the playoffs.

Haven't wanted to go there, but this team has been a complete buzzkill since the trade deadline. I want to say they don't deserve to, based on their play since then, but if they make it they obviously did deserve it.

Then to have to watch 4-7 games of Tkachuk trolling the whole team like he did tonight? Meh...

The guys in front of Dave crapped the ice.

Looked like left knee, hopefully it's not as bad as it seemed when he was going down the tunnel.

We’re going to the playoffs flaccid af

Nah fam. This ain’t it.

I have to look at it myself

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Nah fam. This ain’t it.

How do you allow a jam play unopposed with .5 seconds left on the clock? Team was a clown show in our zone during the sequence before that.

 

[adsfan]

Hoping that the Stars and Golden Knights have a regulation game and not OT!

 

[Legionnaire11]

DAL/VGK go to OT

Jam play seems like an awfully generous term for what happened there considering Tkachuk took exactly one shot from a somewhat severe angle. Looked like standard 6 on 5 to me.

 

[Armourboy]

Frankly if Saros is injured we are probably better off not making it. I'm not sure I would want to watch a series in which we are relying on Ingram or Dave to win us playoff games. That's even more true with how piss poor we've been defensively of late.

Nah fam. This ain’t it.

It's part of it ... but take the simple view.

 

[Porter Stoutheart]

I mean, 4 or 5 extra games is still worth playing, still better than not playing at all.

But damn, this team was SO MUCH FUN to watch in December/January timeframe. So easy to love and wonder what upsets they might pull.

And now they are just embarrassing, stepping on their own dicks all the time, even while guys get their 42nd goals and 93rd points or whatnot. It's kind of bizarre, really.

Had this exact thought but if Saros is out I really want to see what Ingram has got

 

[101st_fan]

If Saros is out ... next goalie up. Or bail on the team.

Just determine if you're a fan and post accordingly.

Yeah who knows maybe we could have a Murray/Bennington situation. Although that relies on us not sticking with Rittich if that’s the case.

Best case scenario is that Saros just tweaked something and was being cautious but those non-contact knee injuries are always worrisome.

If the "next goalie up" is Rittich we dont have to bail we will be done in very short order.

 

[Legionnaire11]

DAL/VGK go to the shootout

Look this is me, an overly emotional, brain damaged A-Hole who 101st would love to throttle, but this is where it gets fun. I want to see Ingram in net. I like his play. Worry yes, but panic no. Take the lessons of 303; worry, don't panic.

Next goalie up is Ingram. Askarov can sign on Saturday. I'm not banking on that horse.

 

[PredsV82]

Those of us old enough to remember Vokouns blood clot the last week of 2006 are having flashbacks. And Mason was (at the time) a FAR better goalie than Rittich is now

The first shot faced by Rittich was the game tying goal ... a play where even Crispy called out the skaters for not dealing with Tkachuk coming off the boards. The magic number is one as of right now .. mid-shootout in Dallas.

How many games did Mason face his first shot against in the final 1/10th of a second remaining?

The logo on the front is what matters. The people here who are allegedly fans are running away faster than Twitter members. Sadly, it is exactly what I expect from the people here.

 

[101st_fan]

We're in the playoffs. Sorry "fans"
