GDT: #3: Sharks 8 at FLYERS 2, Tuesday, Oct. 9, 2018, 7:00 p.m. ET

[Captain Dave Poulin]

****in offsides along with no pk killed that cup run.

Yep, the ****ing cheating bastard.

I wouldn’t say he’s drug down two kids. That’s the point. He hasn’t that an agenda comment. Is he trying to do to much yes. Trying to carry a line that he doesn’t need to. The move should settle him down. But he has these moments through every season. It’s why he is a top 20 wing in the league instead of top 5. When he settles. He will dominate and can carry a line. But he isn’t giroux or coots for seeing the play.

Tk knows he just have to skate to open space when playing on the first line Jake does too.

 

[Flyerfan4life]

How many teams in NHL history have lost 10 games in a row in 3 consecutive seasons?

oh look another record for Haks to strive for...

 

[hatcher]

Jake the flake better pick it up as a leader and play the right way and lead by example.

 

[Adtar02]

He’s not the leader Andrew Macdonald is.

 

[Rebels57]

To that point, I only have two people on ignore and literally every thread is like this. Every thread it’s just the board arguing with one or two invisible people on my screen.

Same. It sucks.

My point is simply that people jump on the players they hate but ignore the players they love off a small sample on a tough road trip.

No, you just refuse to accept that proven commodities are often given more leeway during rough stretches.

 

[deadhead]

"Proven commodities" are also expected to play at a higher level.
I expect more from Ghost than MacDonald.

I understand that. Your problem is that you refuse to expect anything from MacDonald.

And he’s played light years better. Macdonald has been the worst player on the ice. It ok he has and ghost while a few mistake has been one of the better ones. Your inability to use stats correctly or understand them or understand their context is a you problem. Not a this player sucks problem

 

[deadhead]

Ghost has not played well the first two games, not nearly up to his standard.
Whether MacDonald is good or bad is irrelevant to Ghost, who is paired with Provorov.

MacDonald is also a "proven commodity" as a veteran depth defenseman.
So you're more patient with him at the beginning of the season than say with Folin.

 

[Lotusflower]

I don't think it should be looked at as a demotion for TK. Nolan needs something to get him going. TK is pure fire and his best buddy. For me, this is more about Nolan than TK. We desperately need Nolan to wake up.

Are people really panicking over Nolan's play 2 games into the season?? He's like 20 right?

 

[Rebels57]

Sharks lost 4-0 to the Isles today.

They are gonna be a hungry team tomorrow night.

Assessing ANY good player after 2 games is total stupidity.

Jones got no help today.

 

[Lotusflower]

I just dont get what people's expectations are. Patrick's no McDavid. What were people expecting? 70 points?

Gotta give this guy time to work out what his game will be at this level.
People also underrating Couts saying we need Patrick to surpass him when Couts is one of the best players in the world and in the midst of his prime.

You compared them not me. And it didn’t say he can’t play better or is playing up to his level. Ghost has not been bad. Not even close. No Macdonald isn’t a proven commodity Bertram depth defenseman on this team. That’s the problem. It’s funny cause you first started with comparing to ghost then shifted to folin.

Ghost looks good out there. Provy not so much. Is he playing lights out no no one has been straight lights out. And I repeat myself he has been one of the better players on the ice in both games. Jesus you cannot read what people say and grasp it.

 

[Doodootheclown]

Just throwing this out there

 

[Adtar02]

Just throwing this out there

Is that real ?????

 

[Danko]

Hell yes. Voracek, the people’s champ.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

A life wasn’t given but a f*** you was.

You just wrote the opposite of this. Proven commodities are expected to play at a higher level. Then just said it’s ok Mac duck as a proven commodity cause he will get to the 6-7 d-man level after some games
