How was he supposed to stop a perfect deflection, his D-man putting one in to his own net, and a freak bounce off the boards? I guess he could have done better in the shootout.

I mean, I know people aren't going to want to hear it, but when Lundqvist let up deflections critics would say "so what, deflections can't be stopped!?"

The Lindgren gaffe isn't on Shesterkin at all. Third goal he misread the bounce of the boards and was caught out of position.

The shootout goals were great, but again, if it was Lundqvist, fans would say where is the save?

The fact is he has been billed as the superior successor to a goalie who won 459 games. Those are massive expectations. You need results to match those.

I know people wanna win and care about their points but I can't muster a single ounce of f*** to give about shootouts. It's approaching the point where I'm gonna just turn it off after the 3v3.

We still should have gotten two points regardless, but also lots to like in this game.

Strome gives me hives, Johnson gives the hives hives, and Quinn gives the hives ice time. All of these clowns will be gone eventually.

The top forwards sucked again. This too shall pass.

Kreider with an absolutely unforgivable shift on the tying goal against. Poor dump in, cant win the puck battle, then goes to the same man Johnson has and leaves the D Man wide open. Such a braindead play.

~why isn’t he captain yet??~

No keep going. You know the point I was making but you don’t want to get into because I’ll f***ing embarrass you.
It’s a dumb and bad point. You’re wrong about Hank so you start talking about Jaromir f***ing Jagr who apparently is relevant in a conversation about goalie ability in shoutouts

Where's Mika this season? He wasn't going to score at a 60 goal pace this year but he's been largely garbage. I've been defending his ass as an elite player on the main board and he's making me look bad.

His last 5 season he was dog shit. Which is fine. I will never understand why people Get so worked up in shootouts. It’s not hockey lol
Eh he wasn’t dog shit but he wasn’t great either. The first decade of his career though he was basically an automatic win in the shootout though so defining him as horrible in shootouts based on the last few years of his career seems unfair.

I agree on the shootout in general thought we all get mad bc if how valuable this stupid skills drill is. A few shootout wins can be the difference between making the playoffs and not.

How long of a leash does Quinn get this season?

With Shesterkin, Lafreniere, a 2nd year from Kakko, Fox, etc we should see improvement this year. How bad of a start do we need for him to get canned?

Shoot outs are tedious. Either have sudden death OT (which shouldn’t take long anyway) or end at a tie.
