GDT: Game 24 | Jackets @ Penguins | 12/6 7PM |

[majormajor]

A decent effort in 1st and 3rd

Elvis was okay

PP was atrocious

Marchenko with meh debut

Agreed except I thought Marchenko was very good. He made good decisions and tipped the puck off the post, probably our best scoring opportunity all game.

 

[MissADD]

I say you only get rid of Larsen if you have your guy already lined up. If you don't stick with Lars, continue the suck and get in the possible position to draft high.

 

[NotWendell]

We are a dumb, sad, untalented, lazy, spineless, and poorly coached team.

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life.

 

[CBJ goalie]

It’s a shame you’re missing it. Buffalo is fun to watch.

I agree, that's why I'm going to see CBJ in Buffalo in February!

 

[majormajor]

Way to come to Gus's defense there guys.

I missed it, who was out there that didn't stick up for gus?

 

[NotWendell]

Larsen is doing the job we need him to do right now.

You also get rid of him if guys just stop trying. Our effort out there is pathetic

I don't know who was on the ice but nobody did.

I could do without the multi-goal losses.

14 38 91 29 13 47

That explains it.

 

[VT]

Kent is an excellent player, but to show his talent, he must not play on the wing with Jack as a center.
I think Tim Berni is a better player than Jake Christiansen.
Elvis was super.
I won't comment more.

 

[tunnelvision]

Agreed except I thought Marchenko was very good. He made good decisions and tipped the puck off the post, probably our best scoring opportunity all game.

I think his positioning as a bumper on the PP could have been better, he didn't seem to know how to get open for Gaudreau's passes. Very likely a lack of chemistry thing that will fix itself with time and practice.

 

[majormajor]

I think Tim Berni is a better player than Jake Christiansen.

I'm not going to judge who the better player is based on one game.

But I'll say that Berni looked good to me. He doesn't have the scoring skill that Christiansen does but he's a patient and safe player.

I'm also curious, why wasn't Christiansen running the second PP unit when he was in the lineup? You'd think giving him a shot there would have been the best use of his talents.

 

[DarkandStormy]

Chinakhov and Sillinger dominated when they were on the ice, and Larsen couldn't play them more than 8 minutes at 5v5.

This coaching staff is a dumpster fire.

Got to increase Gavrikovs trade value

He did it once or twice. Not very well. Although, who among our defenders can do that?

 

[tunnelvision]

Hope Marchenko does well in his ten minutes.

You were off by 5 seconds lol. 10:05 TOI for Marchenko.

 

[614 CBJ]

He’s the worst player in the league, quite frankly.

agreed

 

[Vapaatunnus]

Laine 8 shots, good. Still more shooting needed and guys to rebounds, now they are trying to make too beautiful goals.

 

[ViD]

Laine 8 shots, good. Still more shooting needed and guys to rebounds, now they are trying to make too beautiful goals.

He had like 5 shots during the last PP with goalie pulled

 

[Vapaatunnus]

Yes he did, and couple on front of the goalie. Otherwise, they were just passing.

 

[koteka]

This coaching staff is a dumpster fire.

I have come to the same conclusion.

 

[thebus88]

Body language/reactions of Gaudreau and Jenner after Laine’s ridiculous between the legs shot was interesting.

 

[Cowumbus]

17-3-1 vs Pitt going back to 2017. We continue to hold their pocket.

Body language/reactions of Gaudreau and Jenner after Laine’s ridiculous between the legs shot was interesting.

The goalie was out of position, if he takes it across the goalie to his backhand it’s a sure goal.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life.

Statistically speaking, I think this is 1/2 of the country.
