Needed some luck in the third... Poor Provy.

[Fire Tortorella]

Blow it up.

 

[TCTC]

Can't win them all.

 

[BillDineen]

Provy so close.

 

[Adam Warlock]

We all know whats coming. Id be surprised if they win even 3 of their next 10 games.

 

[Juicy Pop]

It had to end some time, but really... **** that.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Rewarding Lube with a benching while VDV doesn't miss a shift is UND bias at its worst. So ducking stupid.

 

[orangecrush8]

You knew it would end at some point. But **** me.

 

[SuchySays]

no luck today, oh well.

Back at it Monday

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

They couldn't hit the broad side of a barn today. They made life easy on a pretty bad goalie.

 

[Appleyard]

Played a good 1st and 3rd... bad 2nd.

Was just not their night. Niemi made ~4 great saves despite being shaky. Refs did not help at all. Twice hit the goal-frame.

 

[Hurricane28]

Better not be a let down Monday

Ghost and G especially.

We didn't play well and still should have won on mase and provorovs play alone. Frustrating game.

 

[BillDineen]

Haklogic: I can't sit the wonder twins for one shift, so I will double shift Voracek for a semblance of offense.

 

[qalex]

Newbie-ish question please: has anyone ever seen an empty net work? It's done so consistently that I assume it must sometimes, even though I've never seen it. When have you seen a team equalise that way in the last minutes, as opposed to giving up a further goal due to lack of goaltending, which I have seen many, many times?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

it was going to end at some point.
just get back at it Monday night.
isnt Niemi like 11-3-2 or something like that against the Flyers?

 

[Maurice of Orange]

The loss is my fault, I put my lucky Flyers jersey back in the closet I've had it out for the last 10 games but I put it away yesterday.

 

[explosive skating]

What's going on with Giroux's onetimer

Yes.

He did make some really nice saves tbh... a few great pad saves and the save on Giroux from the slot stand out.

The D were firing crazy high and wide all game...

they attempted 21 shots between them... 7 on target. Though ofc 2 of Provorovs hit iron.

 

[TCTC]

Better not be a let down Monday

Fortunately Nashville is one of the worst road teams in the entire league.

 

[Striiker]

Oh well, they weren't going undefeated the rest of the year so it might as well be a game full of bad luck.

 

[qalex]

Yes.

Can I ask when, if you can remember? It's one of those things I know must - the coaches aren't idiots - but I really want to actually see it happen. (Sorry, if this really is not the moment to ask for a tutorial in hockey 101. I'm just curious as to how often it pays off.)

This season against the Red Wings.

 

[Appleyard]

Well, he had what, two today? One was really good and forced a nice save. The other was a rolling puck that went into row Z.

I mean, he has scored like half his goals on one-timers this season.
