GDT: Jet at Flame Afternoon Gaem at 2

This is why.

Odd.

I know the score was 5-0 last game but I thought Kuzy and Huby actually had their best EV play in a bit there.

Unless he was ass in the 1st period of this game, which I missed most of.

Just saw Kylington's first goal of the year. What a beauty. I don't think anyone else on the team can effortlessly skate by a defense like that.

The one UFA many aren't talking about. I think everyone assumes he re-signs since 3/4 of his 2 yr pact was burned w him away, but it's still a business and what if he's offered an insane deal elsewhere. Brutal loss for nothing if so.
I think we re-sign him, but it's a bit dicey.

This is why.

Makes no sense to me, kuz has been fine. The issue with that line is the lack of actual center

 

[Deen]

If anyone should be demoted it's Sharangovich and Huberdeau.

 

[flames23]

I still have/had faith in Volk tbh, but I didn't touch that one. Made money on Lemos, Garry, and Whitaker parlay though.

Well played. I love Volk, but didn't like how little time he took off after Mak. He said he needs to be in camp for mental health, and it just felt like a case of the young lion swallowing the king whole.

Had the moneyline pretty large in addition to the ko. Was fortunate earlier and cashed a solid Barlow inside the distance prop when it looked like it may hit the cards. Green, but has some real tools. Well executed. Had fluffy in Rd2 as well, but whiffed on De Lima sub.

It would be ballsy not to re-sign with the team that gave you so much support during a mental health crisis, and has 2 of their top 4 D leaving by the TDL.

I think it’s pretty safe to assume he’s back.

 

[Felidae]

Unpopular but I've never minded Hunt.

Even going back to the Panthers he's always had impressive board/puck possession shifts. With the Panthers he got decent amount of chances but never scored, then you look at his stat line and realize that's just the norm with him.

 

[crazyfisherman]

Pass that into the net huby!

 

[joescores]

Wow, great goal

 

[Bounces R Way]

holy shit that was a hockey goal

 

[Felidae]

That was a nice neutral zone entry by Sharangovich to get past the defender. Huberdeau 2 points!

 

[Mobiandi]

I’m very confident that Canada will go another year without a cup

Monahan secret agent at work. Thanks Sean

4 goals on arguably the best goalie this season. Nice to see. Too bad we couldn't manage this against the sharks and red wings..

 

[Turning Mangiapanese]

Why is hunt on a line with huberdeau and sharangovich....

He's been pretty good tonight to be fair

Think this is 8 on hellebyuck in 5 periods this yr as well. Clearly james reimer just better

 

[Tofveve]

Up 4-3 after 2, I see we're going on another run aren't we

Can't watch this one, go Flam!

 

[Felidae]

Listening to the intermission talking about Kuzmenko and I disagree with them.

we knew what we were getting with Kuzmenko, an offensively dynamic player that leaves a lot to be desired defensively. We've seen both sides of him already

I'm not saying he shouldn't be held accountable defensively. But there's also a point where you have to accept a player for what they are and play to their strengths, imo. It's also not like we have better options either. Unlike Vancouver who had a deeper forward roster.

It all comes down to risk vs reward. If Kuzmenko is creating more chances against then for, you need to limit his ice-time. There needs to be a net gain.

There's a reason Tocchet wouldn't play him. He might find a role here but I'm not expecting him to be something more than he's shown while here.

 

[crazyfisherman]

I take it back hunts actually been pretty decent this game, still not over kuzy long term tho

 

[Felidae]

Solid PK

 

[Bounces R Way]

Still haven't seen the obligatory Kyle Connor goal yet.

 

[Felidae]

Wow Mangi scored! Pretty passing by Kadri too.

 

[Bert Mckrakken]

What’s that? Breads 4th of the season?

 

[TheHudlinator]

Unreal play by Kadri
