That was shameful performance. Everyone, both coaches and players should be ashamed. Gutless, completely gutless.
I`m not too big on advanced stats but:You might as well put Bieksa in and go full goon squad if you're going to let Kesler play
Team isn't winning anything with a liability center playing against the other teams top players. It's embarrassing at this point
I`m not too big on advanced stats but:
No doubt Kes is 60% max from what he could be. But we didn`t play much Henrique line, for example. And in general, our main guys were too lazy and disinterested tonight, it`s not that Kesler line can`t put up defensively against Pavelski line.
I don't think Kesler was slow. He just couldn't bury anything.Interesting. I thought he looked slow but I could be wrong.
On the bright side, if the Sharks can sweep, there is still a slight chance Carlyle gets fired.
He wasn`t exactly slow but he looked... unwilling or with slow decisions. The Kane PP goal was brutal, Kes had his stick away from the middle. On one hand hard to blame him for being out on 3vs5 but on the other hand, I`m sure he is unhappy with his decision himself.I don't think Kesler was slow. He just couldn't bury anything.

Didn`t saw that. Our 'momentums' were very weak to begin with.Seemed like every time we had some momentum going, it was squashed by having to head to the penalty kill. Whether they were all deserved or not, have to show more discipline and I think we'll be just fine
Yeah. Almost like rookie mistakes, there were several during the game.I dunno, I think all 3 of them were uncharacteristically bad. Lindholm forgot it was 3v5 and decided to try and chase the puck out, Manson went to join him seconds later, leaving Kesler trying to defend 1v3 in front of Gibson.
Ha, what a garbage game 1. Outworked, outcoached and outclassed - that might as well be the motto for Anaheim under the 'new and improved' RC. If Anaheim loses game 2 you can stick a fork into them for the season, no-way this team comes back from 0-2 with the old school moron behind the bench.
