honestly, if you want actually accountability; Mac should sit next game

 

[Steppin Razor]

Holy shit please for the love of God please never do that again

Seriously, what a boneheaded play.

[ADHB]

Never seen a guy as universally regarded by hockey people as a smart player do so many dumb things as McTavish

Yep.

 

[Boo Boo]

Ryan is that you?

 

[TheStuntman]

LOL wow.

 

[ScarTroy]

Between double shifting himself, passing up shots, the penalties he takes, and now that pass, he deserves to watch from the press box for a game or be demoted to a lower line for a bit.

 

[Ducksforcup]

Honestly not even mad. That was a great effort.

 

[Leonardo87]

McTavish with another brutal game. -3 tonight. Leo looked fantastic, as did Minty. Good game overall.

 

[la patineuse]

3 Stars

1 - Cirelli
2 - Duclair
3 - Johnston

I'd vote Minty for #3.

 

[Deuce22]

Enjoyed the game. Can see the light at the end of the tunnel with Carlsson, Mintyukov, and Dostal as our cornerstones.

 

[HanSolo]

I'd vote Minty for #3.

Agreed. Minty had a better overall game.

I hope the offseason helps him. He looked so good in the first half of the year but he's been slightly clueless lately.

Yup, you can see where Carlsson is right on the edge of becoming a game breaking talent. He was a scoring chance machine tonight just needs to find that finish.

 

[Static]

It was a good effort, at least.

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Mac had 21 points in his first 20 games, 19 points in 39 games since then.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Mac is battling back issues .. he needs address that in the off-season. He hurt his back and that's when his play tailed offf

Do back injuries make you stupid?

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Do back injuries make you stupid?

No but they make you play timid and afraid at times and that's what causes you to over think plays and make boneheaded decisions

 

[Static]

Do back injuries make you stupid?

It would explain a lot of his desperate stick and grabbing infractions, at least partially.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Yup you guessed it. He's clearly frustrated but back Injuries are a bitch to play through and he's clearly frustrated..

 

[Terry Yake]

carlsson not getting on the scoresheet despite his consistently good play is really discouraging

also, mctavish needs to be benched for a game or two. that was absolutely brutal

Everyone says he’s the next captain. He’s clearly been studying tape of our last captain to learn how to play overtime.
