GDT: Ottawa Senators at Buffalo Sabres - 7PM - TV - Buick Le Sabre Rattling Exhaust

[Pierre from Orleans]

I was expecting a win not based on any uptick or positive trend but simply because we had lost 4 in a row and the law of averages usually means even a bad team will win one single game out of 5 on the road, especially against another shit team, but no, not this team. This team is finding entirely new ways to suck.

The Ottawa Senators by sheer determination wills their way to defeat.

Goaltending let us down again

While I agree there were a couple goals we'd like back, coming in cold after an injury is always tough for the first 10 mins or so. PP is my biggest frustration, because there really is no excuse

Brady was a little better tonight but.. Giroux led the way,.. Greig battled every shift .. Where's this drag you into the fight from Tkachuk.

Stutzle is in some other world right now.
Batherson we need more out of him
Kubalik waiver material no intensity
Tarasenko pretty typical game from him
Joseph nothing much one way or another

Defense
Of the current Dcorps the only 2 I would definitely not have available are Sanderson and Zub

You want Chabot ...We will make a deal
Same for Chychrun

Goaltending let us down again

I think Stü is just so low right now with confidence that he worries every move he makes is going to turn into a hand grenade. He's been up to his ears in shit recently. I honestly just feel bad for the kid. He needs a confidence boost.

For his own benefit. Dude needs a wake up call.

I think he needs some confidence. That means playing the game.

At least we get to see Soogard now.

Stutzle needs to tape his stick like an adult so he can stop fumbling the puck

Get that mickey mouse tape job out of here

You could be right. Doing something different might be the thing that gets him going.

JM post-game states that it is a groin injury for Forsberg... Strange to say, but depending on degree, perhaps far better than an MCL setback!

Yeah, poor guy is getting beat up. Those are two very difficult injuries to get past as a goalie.

If Brady and Timmy aren’t healthy just shut them down. The season was over two weeks ago. Try to salvage at least something good from this season with a top pick.

Keeping stutzle in looks like our best shot at a top pick

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Stutzle needs to go bully a shinny game somewhere for fun.

You could say the same about Chychrun the other night. I mean they are all playing pretty terribly lately.

Yeah but one dude is saving us from loser points lol

Stu needs some of that Alien tape he'll never lose the puck again

 

[Speatleysson]

He's 21 years old man.

That doesn't excuse him fully. He's making the same errors over and over again.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Not only did the team lose Michael Andlauer looked defeated!

 

[SensFactor]

Trades upcoming...can't wait...

 

[Adrianopolous]

"why I inherited this is beyond me"

Stützle fell off hard this year

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

NEXT!

 

[L'Aveuglette]

That doesn't excuse him fully. He's making the same errors over and over again.

It doesn't, and he's turning 22 in a few days anyway, but I think this is mostly the result of getting no proper coaching throughout his NHL career. These kids don't know how to deal with adversity AT ALL.

 

[RyCam]

This team needs a shake up, unfortunately Pierre Dorion put together a losing team, which is not surprising. I would not be opposed to moving some of the big names that we have if that's what it takes to move forward.

 

[Boud]

I see some people speculating that Tkachuk/Stutzle could be hurt.

If that was the case they would probably be sitting games or at least not playing as much as they do since the playoffs are long gone. I don't think they're injured, I think they've completely lost it.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDoo]

First game I’ve watched in about 2 or 3 weeks, but IMO Chychrun is an objectively bad hockey player. Really makes some bad decisions, with and without the puck.

One of us!

f*** at this point the "pick" is what matters.

 

[Butchy Dakkar]

My key takeaways:

1. Staios loves a good chew, and doesn’t care who’s watching. Ryan Bowness likes a good chew as well, but tries to do it stealth, pretending to drink coffee when he’s spitting.
2. Jamie Baker is actually Captain Obvious.
And he calls every routine save like it belongs on the highlight time. (Bring back Mike Johnston as a regular please, screw the Leafs).

3. On the 7th day, the Claudfather was created. Our oldest player is our best AINEC. One of these things is not like the others.

 

[Relapsing]

It's times like this you wish you could just say "you know what, we forfeit the next 10 games"

This team clearly needs a mental reset.
