Hello Earth!

 

[Zguy370]

Best game for Lander., Talbot was great., Feel bad for McDavid that his wingers are Lucic and Eberle

 

[Suxnet]

For some reason there was a bunch of people expecting us to dominate one of the best teams in the league...?

Nice strawman.

 

[KCC]

holy guys, why are you so toxic? we played really well

Except the part that edm still csnt hold leads and they were classic edm with turniver after turnover in the third.

Exactly Pitlick had nothing to do with the play. He was flying the zone when the puck was going to where he should have been. Maybe we would have had numbers and won the battle for the puck. He wasn't doing much good up at center ice when they scored.

What? This doesn't make sense though. You have a single man on the boards for that battle and someone waiting for pass going forward. If you watch the play, it's basically a 2 on 1 going towards Letestu on the boards for what would have been a battle there if the puck wasn't poorly placed by Larsson. What the hell would be the point of having a battle in our zone when their entire team is still set up? Why not just get it out, and exit from pressure?

There's literally no reason to put a puck in that position. It's a battle which opens up for a potential loss, which means they have possession in our zone.

You play it off the boards, get out of pressure when the defensemen is locked in. It's a simple play, exchange possession sure..but limit the chance.

Lucic needs to be bumped down a few lines

 

[herestohoping]

We actually need someone to play with McDavid. Loach and ebs ain't cutting it.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Lucic is literally a nothing player right now though. Slepyshev adds more.

 

[Mr Positive]

Nurse was great this game anyway.

Lucic was fighting it. I can't recall much of anything he did right

 

[McTrashBoat]

Should of been 7-3 if it wasnt for Talbot in net, only reason it was close.

yeah and if Lundquist wasn't in net we would have won 20-3

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

 

[nabob]

More moral victories. Yay.

Sorry I guess a blind rage when the team doesn't win every game is the way to be.

If you want to win every game gen go play NHL17 on rookie.

 

[herestohoping]

7-3-1 doesn't sound great.

 

[Perfect_Drug]

Fn terrible

Hey guys,
I think this guy doesn't like Lucic

But it's just a hunch

 

[Blitzago*]

Solid argument, went right over your head,

Good try buddy.

 

[nabob]

Should of been 7-3 if it wasnt for Talbot in net, only reason it was close.

Actually would have been 30-3 if we didn't have a goalie.

 

[Soundwave]

Bad call by McLellan by having Benning out there that late in the game, basically cost us a point at least.

We were the better team in the 1st half of the game, they were better in the 2nd half, that's the ball game.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Top line was crap. All three need to wake up.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

Hey guys,
I think this guy doesn't like Lucic

But it's just a hunch

Name one thing he's done in the last few games to negate that comment.

 

[Alawishis]

yeah and if Lundquist wasn't in net we would have won 20-3

But, he was. If Talbot was not in our net we lose 8-2.

 

[blupye*]

this is by far the most frustrating game of the year. Ver, very lazy game by Lucic, Eberle is useless, worse game by Russell. We looked like the Oilers of last year with the giveaways. Man this was hard to watch in the 3rd

 

[PBandJ]

Sorry I guess a blind rage when the team doesn't win every game is the way to be.

You keep being happy with losses.

 

[McPuritania]

Sorry I guess a blind rage when the team doesn't win every game is the way to be.

If you want to win every game gen go play NHL17 on rookie.

Or be content with a 3 game losing streak? Maybe more? Our expectations need to be higher than that.

 

[Zaddy]

7-3-1 doesn't sound great.

Still the best record in the WC.
