Who the hell put this silly state in that stupid time zone

 

[explosive skating]

Jesus f***in christ, is 22:00 so late for people in US/Cnada ? Just asking.

Once upon a time, no, it's not a problem. Now, yes, yes it is.

I stay up till 1 just f***ing around most nights, at least I have a reason this time.

 

[Rebels57]

The descent has begun

 

[Angry Hockey Dad]

I'd like to see another OT loss because it's getting funny. 14. That's crazy.

 

[Sombastate]

That's a huge drop off from yesterday. Wasn't it 94%?

What happens if we win today?

nope....its 7:00pm for me. aaaand your avatar is distracting.

Yeah we were in low 90s

Loss today and Florida probably drops us to 80% or less

Win today should lift us back into the 90s

It was Haked.

I think I gave a pretty reasonable, middle-of-the road answer.
I acknowledged AMac turns it over in his own zone, like the entire defense does.
But I do think that his good plays get filtered out and ignored. And he has made a number of good plays this season, such as last night when he bailed Laughton out on a bad turnover that caused a 2-on-1.
He's first among the team's defensemen in +/- at +12.
He's got 19 points in 61 games.
His zone starts are absolutely brutal.
And his giveaways are half of Provorov's.

As I said in my "contrarian" post, I'm not saying AMac has been great. Just saying he's had a better season than I think he gets credit for and that he's been "adequate" in a difficult role.

Boy, many of you really can't take moderate, middle-of-the road thoughts on a player.

When you put blame on Ghost and Provorov but then defend Mac, it doesn’t matter if the praise was “middle-of-the-road”.

But I love how you’re acting like it’s that others can’t take different opinions, not that the opinion was ridiculous.

MacDonald has been horrible. You’re only defending him to be different.

During warm up, Mrazek looses control and laterally slides 20 feet into Neuvy who is warming up in the corner, breaking his hip

Well, the facts say that Sanheim - MacDonald have outplayed Provorov - Ghost the last couple weeks.
Of course, they're probably getting easier matchups, but still . . .

For people who have to get up to work early, yes. As a college student, I would've been all over this start time.

 

[PALE PWNR]

I haven't been very active on the site as of late, so no idea if its been discussed. But what is the deal with the stupid Mrazek turn around slide. Since when is it ever a good idea for a goalie to have his back to the play. Like it seems so unnecessary and that hes almost doing it to "show off". But the puck goes in everytime he does it or shortly after doing it

 

[Striiker]

There is no "fact" that says MacDonald is better than any one of those three players.

If any statistic suggests such, it's either misrepresented, missing context, or completely useless.

The only reason MacDonald has looked a little better (and by that I mean like a 2/10 instead of a 1/10... so still awful) is because Sanheim has been carrying his useless ass with his great play.

It must be MacDonald saving his A game to help the rook, because everyone knows that Sandheim kid sucks without supervision.

michal "brittlefly'' neuvirth will start tonite.

Brittlefly

 

[Striiker]

If he can stay healthy, Neuvirth is far better than Lyon or Mrazek.

Doesn't mean he can't have bad games, but I trust him 100x more than either of those two.

 

[Winston Wolf]

No news regarding Filppula?

Which says a lot, because hes painfully average.

 

[kelmitchell]

10:00 PM start and 8:00 AM class 25 minutes away the next morning means I'm probably not watching this one.

How about 10 pm start and awake at 5 to go to work lmao

 

[Rebels57]

 

[TCTC]

If he can have another playoffs like he had two years ago, he can make a huge difference.

And or some reason the team seems to mostly play well with him in the net.
