James Neal Is the DeadLine Deal because Czarnik has made him expendable af

 

[super6646]

Holy shit czrnik is clutch.

Seriously, Neal better step it up when he gets back. No way he should be in the lineup over him right now.

 

[BRobMint]

That was an underserved win. 2nd game in the row where we got a last minuet miracle. We need to start playing a full 60 minuets again.

 

[Boomstick]

Man I hate games like that.
Scary. Glad we squeaked out 2 points.

 

[Calculon]

No point to getting Stone if the top line can't get going again. Peters needs to starting blending a little.

 

[Mr Snrub]

Also, Rittich looked good tonight despite the posts. Who do you start against the Isles on Tuesday?

Yeah that game was coyote ugly.

I mean, we weren't sharp and our passing was sloppy, and our top line is in a funk, but we were leaning on Ottawa pretty hard all game. If you think we didn't deserve the win, they sure as hell didn't deserve it. They committed turnover after turnover all game long.

It's a back-to-back with the Devils on Wed, I'd keep Rittich in for Tuesday then give Smith the Devils and then go from there.

Nah, that's a deserved win. It was scarier than it should have been but I don't think there's any question as to which team was better tonight. Lots of bad luck in there.

Smith...no doubt

Top line has to get its crap together ASAP. Feels like Gaudreau is trying to compensate for Monahan who has been godawful as of late. Seriously, he looks like himself from last February/March, just a mess everywhere.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Flames were all over them for the most part, but way too close for comfort. Feel like they need simplify a bit more, and get pucks to more dirty areas in the middle of the ice instead of perimeter stuff. Now for some trading fun. Big 2 points!

I think "Ugly Win" would've been a better thing to say.

He is saving himself for the playoff

 

[Tofveve]

We won. That's good.

Way to do it for us Czarnik!

 

[Anglesmith]

Definitely. Our play in the first period was almost flawless, and we just couldn't put it away (cleanly). I think the boys were squeezing their sticks after that. Normally they have more composure in the third period than they showed tonight.

The other factor is that Boucher seemed to put his team into a pretty tight defensive shell after they tied it.

 

[Rubi]

Calgary dominated Ottawa all game. We just couldn't finish... particularly the 1st line.
But we still deserved the win.

 

[super6646]

2 goals in a month... both in the same game and being on the top line. Yikes. We aren’t getting anywhere in the playoffs if that top line can’t pull its head out of it’s ass.

 

[Rubi]

The game's over. Is this when the Mark Stone announcement is made?

He'll come around...he has scored 30 for 5 yrs now?...he cant just forget how to score

 

[Mr Snrub]

Czarnik has more goals than Neal in 22 fewer games.

He’s forgotten how to play in general. Same with tkachuk. Seriously, they’ve been in funks long enough that “natural regression” really shouldn’t be an excuse anymore. Not gonna win a lot of games with 2 goals...

 

[JurassicTunga]

5 wins in a row without the top line getting on the board much. Good depth. Lets hope Gaudreau-Monahan-Tkachuk get back on track soon. Maybe 1 Mark Stone/Kevin Hayes is the medicine.

Did not like because this is a bit depressing
