GDT: [#52] Dallas Stars at Nashville Predators, 7:00 PM CST (FS-SW+)

Sure but he's the captain and he probably told the other guys i got this so they gave it to him.

It's cool that he thinks he has got it, but he doesn't have it.

Just like that puck exploding off his stick late in the third. His game is so weak.

The entire team was having trouble controlling pucks -- in fact right after Benn fumbled it he tried to pass it off to Radulov who also fumbled it. The players aren't going to be at their sharpest after that much hockey.

Well Chicago won in OT

 

[Kcb12345]

Chicago wins in OT. Minnesota leaves with a point though

 

[Robert Kentwood]

Benn needs to stop talking so much. Shut up and score.

 

[JeffP]

chicago just wont against minn in OT, so that also helps us

When Chicago sneaks into the 8th seed and knocks the Stars out I'm bumping this thread.

Hawks had a PP to start the OT for almost 2 minutes and almost blew it. Put it on a different screen

Well we're not becoming a #1 seed so earliest we could meet them would be WCF .

Also the Hawks are so far behind and have already played more game then the other teams and there's so many ahead of them. I just don't see it.

Up next is a hot Arizona team. That should be an interesting game, hopefully we don't fall back and overlook them.

I'll be there so they better not

I think this can be a dangerous team if we can add the right piece(s) at the deadline.

Just alone by the fact that they're basically never getting blown out ( i think only that game in Pittsburgh was never close ) means they are in every game . The scoring woes sadly also mean worse teams are also in every game because the Stars right now can't put anyone away.

 

[Kcb12345]

Lmao I knew this sounded familiar gotta watch with sound and until the end

Anaheim has won 21 out of 52 games and is 3 points out of a playoff spot. Were really out here in 2019 without the 3-2-1 system.

I think that says more about the quality of the West than anything. The team holding the 8th seed right now is 22-28 if you look at it that way. It's a welcome change from years past where win totals in the low 40s wasn't enough to quality for the playoffs. This year it looks like 40 wins will get you comfortably in. For once the East is the bloodbath.

The first Toronto game was rough, too. We stayed in that with our offense though.

Which just reading it now sounds wierd. Stars stayed in that game with their offense . Doesn't feel right.

We’ve given up 4 or more goals in 13 games, 5 or more in 7, 6 or more in 3 and 7 once. Only two of those games had a goal differential of 4, which is the worst we’ve had all season.

 

[eartotheground]

38% on the dot this game

46% on the dot this season

He used to be a 50-55% guy.. which made sense for him to take the left side draws and Seguin the right side draws. But if you are going to lose more than half it doesn't make sense.

Just another area where Benn has been weak this year.

Do you have the numbers for when he’s the first one taking the draw as opposed to taking over for someone getting kicked out? Seems like he’s been second man in a lot, which is almost always a loss.

 

[FirstRowUpperDeck]

ESPN at least had our goal scores as 3 stars. I think Dobby should have been one.

Perfect back to back road game, hold on, weather storm, strike in third.

When it was Benn - Seg - Rads he would take all the left side draws, first go around.

Now that he is playing with Faksa the last few games he seems to only come in second man.
