GDT: 1/21/24 - 7:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Detroit

[JTBF81]

5 straight wins was nice, but losing to a team you're battling for a playoff spot (and playing like the way they did, aside from Vasy) is inexcusable. There's very little room for error down the stretch this season, and one would've thought in an important game like that, that the team would have least put forth a quality effort regardless of outcome. To phone in a game like that against another team battling for one of those last playoff spots...

 

[RDTBay4]

At least our guys don't have to live in Detroit.

 

[Sky04]

That was a very winnable game to a very bad Detroit team and they happen to be 1 spot above us in the standings. Don't care if it was a B2B, that's an inexcusable loss at this point in the season.

Apparently Hedman's hockey IQ isn't high enough to make the pass. Serge would never shoot that puck!

Omg take heddy off the power play

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Heddy scored the only goal of the night, and Vasy came up with many big saves.

So yes, I too would like to pick these two gentlemen as my scapegoats of the night.

 

[FinnLightning26]

Pretty shit effort in such an important game. Vasy was ridiculous but other than that, the team sucked.

Cirelli with another 6M defensive play on that Detroit GWG.

 

[Maelmoor]

Yeah that sucked, was definitely a winnable game. Oh well, time for a new winning streak then!

 

[LightningStrikes]

…And to make the night perfect after losing to a divisional rival in a very winnable game and the Bucs L, Kuch loses the scoring lead to MacKinnon.

 

[Stelio Kontos]

Kraken fans agree, big time.

Too much talent coop would hate him but we had to give 5’8 leech Connor sheary a 3 year. Frustrating when you have players like Verhaege, Marchessault Joseph go and end up watching Jeannot sheary, namestnikov & ABB

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Why does this team look noticeably slower on the road? I know they're not exactly a fast team, but they look quicker at home. On the road, it looks like they just got off the bus as if they were Brandon arriving in Portland an hour before a Dub game.

Should have signed Sprong, Heinen, or Rodrigues.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Everyone, including Coop and the team were not very pleased after this one, but I just want to see what comes next. They came into this game on a 7-3-0 run, winning the last 5. Can we get back to business or does this throw us off again? There's been so many times this season where we win a big game or start to put a win streak together only for something to happen, we lose a game, that starts to snowball, and we're back to square one again. Take care of Philly and get back on track.

 

[Antiramie]

Can Sergachev play forward when he comes back?

 

[Renopucker]

Can Sergachev play forward when he comes back?

God...That would be REALLY interesting wouldn't it???

 

[Peacefool]

Yeah that sucked, was definitely a winnable game. Oh well, time for a new winning streak then!

The only one comment after this loss that I actually like. GO, Bolts!!)
