I am fairly sure Killorn, Palat, Drouin and Dotchin are playing hurt.

Why are people getting mad at Vasy? The first two were just damn good shots, the third was double tipped, and the fourth was Stralman going into the corner while Garrison chatted about the weather with Oshie behind the net, leaving Killorn to do 2 defensemen's jobs.

Because it's now gotten to the point that Vasi sucks whenever he gives up a goal. Not worth disputing anymore. Some just troll and others are sincere in their ridiculous stance.

I thought Drouin had some good long rushes last night. Hit a post in the second. One of his more threatening games in a while, though still not 100%.

I mean, these two were questionable to play last night, so that is a good assumption.

Yeah.

 

[T REX]

Vasy just gave up 8 goals in two huge games. Stop making excuses for him. He played poorly. He'll be the first to admit it.

Wayne Gretzky once said Ales Hemsky was better than him too. Doesn't make what they say accurate

 

[Bolt 45]

Vasy didn't stand on his head last night, but our only real hope of winning was to stay out of the box. That power play should have to score twice for the goals to count. All Ovi has to do anymore is stand around and look dangerous. It's almost a joke. Also, surviving Drouin's (?) penalty only to give up a goal right away was a psychological piledriver.

 

[PaulGG]

We tied 1st period and 2nd. Lost it in the 3rd. A good effort considering our line up and seriously who thought we would win this one?
Point has shown he will be able to fill Filpula's shoes but so far no one has emerged as a Boyle replacement, especially on the faceoffs. When I spoke with Bradley about Boyle he seemed optimistic we could get him back next year. I think Vasi will be ok. Frosse, McKegg and Witkowski have not looked to me like candidates for our NHL team. Dumont and and Dotchkin look like they may find a spot.
Agree with comments that Drouin is hobbled by something in addition to slumping.

Lol i mean you are part of the reason vasi got so much hate..

 

[MattM92]

Lol i mean you are part of the reason vasi got so much hate..

How so? Because I knew Vasi was ready for more when everyone was all aboard the Bishop hype train? How did that end up working out?

And didn't I also tell you that when he started to have young goalie struggles again the board would jump down his throat? Well, he had 8 great games and 2 meh games. Back to suck?

A goal is a goal. I don't care who is in net.

 

[CupsOverCash]

Vasi has sucked the last couple of games but let's not forget he was a reason we were even in position to get back into the playoff hunt. If we make it he will be a huge reason why.

Just dropped in to say that Kucherov is an amazing talent. What an unbelievably fun player to watch. 58th overall... crazy.
