GDT: Flames @ Preds | 4/26/2022 | Get Your S**t together Edition

[Legionnaire11]

Dallas wins.

 

[GoldOnGold]

I love Miro Heiskanen

 

[101st_fan]

Crispy gets at least two more home games.

 

[Jonesey]

Hoping for Saros/Ingram.

 

[101st_fan]

I'm hoping for wins. If that is Saros ... great. If it is Ingram ... great. If it is Rittich ... great. If it is Vomacka ... great.

 

[Kat Predator]

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.

We made it.

 

[PredsV82]

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.

You misunderstand. The last second goal sucked but that shit happens. Guy came in cold and let in a goal. I'm not rending garments over the one goal

I'm very downbeat because Rittich cannot possibly carry this team to playoff series wins. With Saros I thought we would be even money to beat the Flames and wouldnt have had a fighting chance against the Avs. But if we have to start Rittich in the playoffs we will be swept 4-0 or maybe win one game 6-5 or something crazy. But to think we have any chance at playoff success with Rittich is just delusional

 

[Armourboy]

We made it.

Well hopefully Saros is ok otherwise this is just a waste of time.

Rittich isn't a star but he was a starter in this league. Saros has zero series wins in his career.

But there is adversity .. the HF "fan" reaction

 

[Legionnaire11]

I'll be here for "Big Redemption Dave"

 

[Kat Predator]

Vegas can still knock Dallas out of the playoffs. With compound miracles.

 

[braindead]

In is better than out. Simple as that. In a theoretically perfect world Saros is healthy and we play the Flames. But you can only win games in the real world with available players against the real opponent… so let’s take our shot and be happy we have a shot.

Oh come on. Nobody is "running away"
Everyone here is passionate and is reacting emotionally to a shockingly disappointing situation. But everyone in this thread who has said something you object to will be here in the GDTs for the playoffs hoping for a miracle.

Dallas has home games against Arizona and Anaheim and only needs 1 point

And that’s only if Vegas wins at Hawks and Blues

That would definitely be some kind of miracle if that happens

 

[Kat Predator]

Is Big Save Dave > Jordan Binnington ?

 

[ViktorBaeArvidsson]

Wasn’t pretty but we made it, anything can happen, but I definitely hope Ingram gets a shot in net if Saros is out for long term. Rittich is probably out of the league after this year, while Ingram could become something possibly.

There's one path. Vegas has to win both games and Dallas has to lose both games in regulation. Anything else and Dallas is in.

I'm fine with Vegas getting a taste of being out for once.

F them both.

This was always a bubble team in a "competitive rebuild" that is EXACTLY at its best case scenario as far as end of season seeding. As for people not "running away" .. read the comments here over the past seven months when our "fans" have been doing exactly that since pre-season. Just tonight look how many people didn't want to make it if Saros MIGHT be hurt. Predators "fans"

Slade was far too nice and optimistic. GG Allin is closer.

 

[Olderfan]

So tell me, which metric is it that has us now trailing Dallas but Preds are in the playoffs but Vegas can knock Dallas out but not the Preds? After points and wins I get confused.

 

[LCPreds]

If anyone wants to be a "fan" and buy my playoff tickets if Rittich is the goalie then I'll gladly sell them to you for face value.

 

[Marty Party]

Aside from Saros getting hurt and the back-up guy not saving the game, it was a fun barn tonight.

I'll be there next week, probably with an 8:30 central start.

 

[hockey diva]

Olivier was a complete non-factor tonight.

 

[LCPreds]

Olivier was a complete non-factor tonight.

About the only time I noticed him was when he tried to sneak off after an icing.

 

[Marty Party]

Olivier kept falling down. I think half the time he was on the ice, he was looking at his skate blades.
