GDT: Game 79: Preds vs Those F'n Guys 7PM | Fiala and Hartman have how many goals? EACH??? Edition

[hockey diva]

Ugh. Feeling good and then give up 2 in the last 2 minutes including one to that brat Fiala.

 

[PredsV82]

Need Ingram ASAP. Big Sieve Dave isnt getting it done at crunch time

 

[You]

Either we show up for the third, or we get outshot 60-22

 

[adsfan]

They let Kevin score that sh*t.

A goal and an assist at the end of the period. That reverses the lead and it hurts me big time.

The AHL regular season ends on the 30th. It might be a quick series against the Moose.

How many of those are really on him?

At least Fiala's backhander from 30 feet.

 

[LCPreds]

That was a great play by Fiala.

Also it’s painful watching Granlund on the dot tonight.

 

[LCPreds]

At least Fiala's backhander from 30 feet.

If you think Saros would have stopped that I don’t really know what to say.

So the Boro own goal? The interference that wasn't? The PP goal where he's screened and sniped by a player alone on one side? That comes out to one of four.

I know what to say. The rules here prevent it.

 

[LCPreds]

Tampa has better weather and Portillos ... just saying.

And a better arena. I didn’t realize there was a Portillo’s in Tampa though. Good enough reason for another hockey road trip next season.

I forgot about Boro. I thought that it was Kunin's fault on the interference.

Dave has to make more clean saves and maybe the Wild doesn't get the "interference" goal.

 

[drwpreds]

Just looking at the Wild shot chart/scoring chances chart- we are lucky they haven’t scored 7 or 8 goals

We are in big trouble- hot garbage right now

Completely embarrassing

Kunin laid on Middleton AFTER contact with Rittich ... but that's only sequencing. Even if you blame Kunin, how the hell is Dave supposed to make a Big Save there? Still one of four.

 

[101st_fan]

I always laugh when the contingent of our fanbase that is ready to write the team off early, sometimes even pre-season, feigns being upset when a team exceeds their prediction and remains in WC1 on the bubble during a competitive rebuild.

 

[adsfan]

I know what to say. The rules here prevent it.

The shot didn't look that hard to me. It was taken above the upper hash mark. Saros is a reaction goalie, maybe he gets that one, maybe not.

Dave didn't react fast enough. The left side of the net was open except for his pad at the bottom.

That pass from Fiala was unstoppable unless Fabbro can block it.

 

[drwpreds]

This is what drives me crazy- we had all the momentum- took the lead 3-2. We are dominating play. Should be able to carry that the rest of the period.

But instead? After taking the lead we are outshot 7-1 and outscored 2-0 in final minutes of the period.

Incredibly frustrating.....

The PPG was an amazing pass and goal that would have required a miracle to stop. The Fiala goal was potentially stoppable ... but the delusion that Saros would have definitely prevented that goal is just that, a delusion. At worst, one of four goals against is really on Rittich .. against a team that lost twice in regulation across its last 21 games.

I said to my wife twice that the Preds can't give up a goal here. Ten seconds later both times the Wild score. Aaaarrrgggghhh!

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Geeez, we went from looking like a team that could maybe cause some problems for a favorite in the first round (or two) to one that looks like we're in year 2 of a 5 year rebuild and on their way to another high lottery pick.

 

[hockey diva]

I suppose my expectations were misaligned after the guys played so well the first half of the season. That being said, our passing is generally atrocious and our d zone clears problematic to start. I also don't think posting where we fall short is bailing on the team

 

[adsfan]

Deslauriers called again against Benning. Do they have some history?

 

[101st_fan]

I suppose my expectations were misaligned after the guys played so well the first half of the season.

Things really aren't much different except the other teams in our division have now played a similar number of games. 3rd-4th in the division by pts% ... 4th -6th in the Conference on pts% .... holds true for MONTHS.

Back to our home away from home.
