Ok. Up 2. Do I leave the arena???

At least go to one of the in arena bars and start pounding.

 

[hido]

It’s the most dangerous lead in hockey

I really hope in an hour I’m not posting “I should have sold my tickets.” It’s going to be unbearable in here if Chicago kicks our arse.

I haven’t posted this………….yet

 

[Armourboy]

Well 2 goal lead, wish I could feel good about that.

Always thought the 2 goal lead being the most dangerous lead in hockey was a joke....

It was ... until last week.

 

[Armourboy]

Barrie almost fell over his own two feet there.

 

[Armourboy]

Dear Lauzon, taking the play with speed, sending the shot on net = good. Standing around behind the net just watching the play after = bad.

 

[LCPreds]

Oh no. Not again.

 

[SouthNash]

Dammit

 

[Armourboy]

And here we go again.

 

[herzausstein]

No.....no....nononononononono

Time for the boys to reach down, check if they have anything inside their cups ... or if they wimp out and squander their fourth consecutive 2 goal lead.

 

[SouthNash]

Smith the scoring machine!!

 

[Armourboy]

Cole freaking Smith

 

[SouthNash]

With perry right there!!

 

[101st_fan]

Tomasino finally figures out to find a soft spot in the defense ... let the big boys win the puck battle and get the pass out to him for the open shot ... then Smith back to the blue ice for the rebound.

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Smitty!

 

[SouthNash]

Please score on perry's booboo...again!

"Development" can happen even when playing with grinders.

 

[Kat Predator]

Wait. I was told Tomasino was useless.

Jury's still out...but probably not nearly as many times as Cole Smith has been labeled that.

When he does the right things it can. What got him sat was failing to do those things without the puck that result in positive plays. He wasn't getting into those areas to receive a pass ... he wasn't putting the puck on net when he had the opportunity ... he is the only person determining if he's in or out of the lineup. Plays like that keep him in. The skating around looking lost, losing the puck, not getting the puck on net of previous games will get him sat again.

Still need to survive a 3rd period we enter with a two goal lead.
