And there's Perbix.... letting us all know he's playing by doing something of negative value.

 

[Antiramie]

How the f*** did we keep some of these jabronies over Bogosian?

 

[Todd1a]

Y'ALL DONT WANNA RE-SIGN THE GOAT LIGHTNING PLAYER?! smdh

Problem is when need to resign Stamkos and sign and top 4 defenseman and fill out a roster with about 12 million bucks

 

[Master P]

Should be matching minors.

edit. Oh it is.

Found a snippet that on some other site. It does give a bit of an explanation as to why so many point shots go in.

"The idea with their defensive style is to clog up the shooting and passing lanes to make puck movement around the net difficult. This also heavily relies on players to sacrifice their bodies to block shots. With the defense compacted out in front of their goaltender, eyesight may be an issue. This isn’t truly a concern as the Golden Knight goalie Adin Hill is 6’6″; still, Vegas is phenomenal at shot-blocking. Vegas, as a team, are blocking 19 shots a game. Three of the top five players in the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs in blocked shots are Vegas defensemen."

Can't remember the last time seeing a blocked shot by us either this season. Also, those killed us in the playoffs at one point, if I recall correctly.

Should've moved *anybody* to keep Bogosian. We have zero depth back there and what we do have is diarrhea.

Coop teaching these guys law instead of defense smh

Agree, now we just have screens and no blocks.

Does not equal success.

For the people.

 

[Todd1a]

Damit cernak that was a gift

 

[Antiramie]

Cernak that shot placement was turrible.

 

[Master P]

I really want to see a selfish Stammer. Just shoot from anywhere and everywhere.

 

[TheFurryPickle]

goddamit

 

[Master P]

See, now THAT is a bad goal to give up.

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

That was outrageously soft.

 

[The Gongshow]

Rip.

 

[Brie]

Ugh, things were looking up but th.en this.

 

[Stammertime91]

So do we blame the net manufacturer there or does Vasy get blamed on that? Cause that's some backup bullshit right there.

 

[Antiramie]

Vasy Jesus f***ing Christ

 

[Point21]

all the momentum is gone

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

well that sucked

 

[JTBF81]

Have to have that cmon

 

[Master P]

Boo hoo.

Vassy gave the team a chance last game and won it for them.

Time for everyone else to return the favor.

 

[Stammertime91]

"The best in the world"

Not sure that applies anymore Dave.

 

[The Gongshow]

That one's on Vasy. Absolute momentum killer. This ones done.

 

[Antiramie]

This team is the definition of mid.
