I skipped a general strata meeting for this...and to play Gloomhaven with my friends. Overall, worth it.

Good that we salvaged a point. But man what a stinker by certain players.

Reserved for my clownish take on Pettersson

Beast Tryant rules.

Can't win em all. Glad we got the point!

 

[Slapshot_11]

No reason to not play demko this game coming off a shutout

Petey was useless

 

[PG Canuck]

Can’t wait for EP2 to save us because EP1 sure won’t.

 

[Chaos Giraffe]

Good:
Suter

Bad:
Everyone else except Suter and Pettersson

Terrible:
Pettersson

Hofer had an amazing save on Hronek just to give it away to Miller which was hilarious.

And then Pettersson blows the entire play.

Pretty bad final 30 minutes from him, a ton of giveaways.

Lost in all of this is that Hughes looked incredible out there, the guy was buzzing all night.

As for the penalty, Pettersson went down pretty easy so I can understand not wanting to call it, but it DIRECTLY resulted in a goal and if the ref knew that he would've called it immediately.

That's why you need to be consistent.

Really have high hopes for EP3. Draft eligble in 4 years.

Good news: this season is guaranteed NOT to be the Canucks' worst in 25 years. With their 69th point tonight they tied their 2016/17 point total.

 

[Breakers]

That Pettersson turnover was bad
that would have been his 3rd offensive rush in a shift in OT
You're only allowed 2

he should have turned back instead of rushing it forward
cost him as he had to back check dog tired

we've always played hero puck in OT a bit too much

 

[God]

Great pushback by the team. We don't often get to see it but they absolutely locked it down, except for Zadorov being casual on the 3-1 goal and deservedly benched.

Sucks to lose because of the refs not calling that obvious cross-check, but we got a point and they've built enough of a cushion that it probably doesn't matter. This is, as far as I can tell, the third time we've been obviously dicked by the refs - the Avalanche and the Rangers were the first two.

That's 2 OT losses EP has watched while lying on the ice after soft contact.

i was worried about that

Has got to be stronger than that, that’s never a penalty come April.

That and the one on Hughes were easily penalties. If teams are able to get away with it because of arbitrary ruling by refs, they'll take advantage of it.

Kinda comical that the goal that was taken away AND the OT Goal were nearly the same - an obvious interference/crosscheck leading to a Brayden Schenn goal.

So far I've retired a Cragheart and Summoner. I have the retirement mission for the Beast Tyrant (ARMOURED BEAR!) and am working my way through the Doomstalker.

 

[PG Canuck]

Say what you want about the winner, penalty or not, EP just completely gave up and instead gets caught looking at the ref instead of just continuing to play.

Terrible turnovers in OT when possession is key. Then gives up whining for a call. Needs to be better than that.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

I think it strange Z got benched, I thought he played quite well up until the goal that got him benched.

The Hughes crosscheck was extremely egregious, that should've 100% been a penalty.

Glad he's okay, that looked very painful, especially going face first into the boards.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

I think a top 6 forward is a good idea to acquire and some defensive depth too. Can’t have enough defensive depth in the playoffs. In 2011, we had something crazy like 14 defense men playing in the playoffs

 

[JAK]

The Blues PDO this game is unsustainable!!!!

No argument to be made in defense. Very shocking to see Petey with such little awareness tonight. Wasn’t every shift, but far too often for someone who is dialed in.

 

[Josepho]

Honestly I thought the penalty on the 3-0 goal was kinda soft so idc about the no call
