GDT: Waitin' for the Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago| Canes @ Hawks| 8:30 PM | United Center

[Wolfpuck]

According to Tripp, Justin Faulk is good at forgetting his mistakes. Wouldn't that mean he keeps making the same mistakes over and over?

*Not criticizing Faulk

Semin led all forwards in icetime with 19:44, Eric having 19:00. Mayhaps Semin is no longer in Peters' doghouse?

More like "The Hurricanes put forth their worst performance in a week because Semin was leading the team in ice time" mirite?

I think the Canes put in a better effort tonight that we did on this game day thread. Yeash.

You think you can do better, help yourself. Nobody's stopping you from creating one.

I believe he meant in general. Barely 50 posts for a GDT is not a good effort on our part.

Clearly, we need to pick a new scapegoat and take sides debating his worth in the GDTs again.

Hasn't that already happened?

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I think he needs to make some kind of impact, either positive or negative, before he can be debated. Right now, he's barely in the lineup as is.

 

[tomdundo]

I nominate Hillen.



Ugh, you just had to make rules, didn't you BB? I was taking "new" in the most obvious sense.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I don't make the rules. I just twist them to my purpose.

 

[Joe McGrath]

I'm not sure which is worse, how invisible Lindholm is half the time or that he's still somehow 3rd on the team in scoring.

Hillel looks like an all tools limited toolbox guy with the added encumbrance of being small. Is that accurate or do you think it's just adjusting to a different system/team.

 

[AD Skinner]

Remember that stretch of games in... I want to say November where Lindholm was scoring gamewinners left and right and was the only one who looked dangerous at all? He's been pretty invisible since then, but I don't think he has looked lost or like he is hurting the team. I'd rather not notice him at all and he sometimes be awesome than sometimes be awesome and other times look crappy.

 

[Highway29]

Why was Dwyer scratched?

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Why was Dwyer scratched?

I'd assume he was a healthy scratch so that Terry could be slotted in last night.

Haven't followed games but I thought that Terry was done and MCCl & Dwyer dominated PK :-o

Yeah. He put up a lot of points early.

I think this is typical "young guy hits wall" syndrome. The NHL season is loooooong -- longer when you're losing. Seems to me that he has upside, and when it matters more, he'll find it more. For right now, he seems like a decent two-way player who doesn't hurt us.

My $0.02.

Agreed. He's definitely shown flashes of being very good. I'm not talking Rask flashes of competency, I'm talking flashes like that incredible soft pass a few games back, or the assist to Skinner against WAS that I don't think got the recognition it deserved.

 

[w e l o s t b o y s]

I think I see him fall down more than Skinner

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

This game was hyped on Rogers as "a duel between Norris contenders Duncan Keith and Justin Faulk"
