GDT: Minnesota Wild Vs Vegas Golden Knights | 7:30PM | Good Friday Eve

[IceNeophyte]

Hope Panda is ok

 

[HanSolo]

I f***ing cannot stand how stationary our powerplay is.

 

[Super Cake]

Our pp sucks

 

[IceNeophyte]

If this goes to shootout we are done.

 

[IceNeophyte]

Game over, at least we get a point.

 

[Pia8988]

Pietro looks to be fighting the puck a lot

 

[HanSolo]

Holy f*** Panda

Pietro looks to be fighting the puck a lot

yup

 

[IceNeophyte]

Holy f*** Panda

yup

Panda is the worst at SO. So bad they should have put Flower in cold.

 

[Pia8988]

I blame Keegan 'Why the f*** am I in the NHL' Kolesar.

 

[azvgk]

Our pp sucks

That's being generous - no movement whatsoever, every shot is predictable.

 

[Super Cake]

The shootout shouldn't f***ing exist in the first place.

 

[IceNeophyte]

And I was wrong, we don't have the tiebreaker. Still second.

 

[willy702]

More of the same coming next game? I mean getting Reaves back would be like playing with 10.5 forwards.

Someday someone will hol these GMs accountable for all this and when they get canned they will just say hey the owner made us do it.

9.5 if he won't hit.

 

[azvgk]

I'll take the point but it seems like a month when we had a power play goal that really made a difference in a game. I actually think ours is worse than the Wild's. Scoring two goals on a power play against St. Louis when we were gonna win anyway doesn't count.

Meanwhile

Roy - 0 goals in 22 games
Tuch - 0 in 9
Marchessault - 9 all season
forget Koleslaw
even Stone 0 for 5
Smith 1 in 12

Defense isn't the problem - every team just packs in their defense or traps and we just pass it around the outside or shoot wide or make average goalies look like the second coming of Jacques Plante

 

[IceNeophyte]

Honestly, I didn't think they would get to 1 point. I didn't think they could stave off a rout. I'm impressed by the effort.

And waive GOATesar. And fire Sport.

 

[willy702]

And I was wrong, we don't have the tiebreaker. Still second.

That tiebreaker is so meaningless. Even if the Knights have home ice over the Avs it doesn't matter. Only thing that is going to beat the Avs are injuries in the playoffs.

 

[Vegas07]

Karlsson should have scored on his first shot on the PP. Had some open space and shot it towards the other corner where the goalie was. Smith did something similar late in the 3rd period. Those were worse than the Kolesar misses IMO.

 

[IceNeophyte]

Best game I've seen from Nabber since I remember. I hope this McNabb sticks around.

 

[Vegas07]

I thought Lehner was really good before the shootout. What a surprise.

Even though we usually suck against the Wild, I'm pretty sure we'll beat them in the playoffs if we play them. Still not sold on the Avs goaltending, but I see their skaters as the best in the league.

In my humble opinion, VGK is a year away.

 

[azvgk]

I thought Lehner was really good before the shootout. What a surprise.

Yes he was - he always sucks in shootouts, if he did ten of them, he'd be lucky to win 2.

 

[Vegas07]

Panda is the worst at SO. So bad they should have put Flower in cold.

The team needs to start doing this.

 

[Vegan Knight]

I thought Lehner was really good before the shootout. What a surprise.

Yes, you often win shootouts when your players put zero of yours in the net. Truly a surprise.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Pietro looks to be fighting the puck a lot

He's been really, really underwhelming. I know it's mostly due to rust/injuries, but yikes.
