GDT: AHL Playoffs - Game 3: Amerks vs. Marlies (4/24 7:00 PM, MSG)

[joshjull]

I would prefer that. My primary goal for developmental teams is to play well, not ride high on variance.

I have no idea what your point is. They are down 2-0 in a 5 game series. They are currently losing after 2 periods in a game that could eliminate them. But you don’t want line adjustments because of math and development philosophy.

This is the let down in play after cresting for so long without result. Hearing Duff and Don talk about them not playing the same way... at some point it was going to stop.

You need a picture of a Giraffe in vestments to seal the deal.

 

[joshjull]

I have to say the Marlies broadcasters haven’t been bad at all.

Perfect timing.......

 

[Tsyolin]

And let me tell you the 1st period of the 1st game was some of the most exciting hockey I've seen in a long time. Hasn't been seen since.

I’m not convinced the toe drag won’t occasionally work in the NHL, but it can’t be the only move in his arsenal.

Don’t worry about it.

 

[Chainshot]

Perfect timing....... sad face

It would be ironic if the puck starts going in for them even though they aren't tipping the ice so hard in their own favor.

Not sure about any of you, but I don't want this to be the end of the season. .

 

[joshjull]

Don’t worry about it.

I’m truly trying understand your pov on this. Not trying to be a jerk.

I don’t want it to end but the hockey gods are still angry at the blasphemy of trying to create a new heaven and naming it hockey heaven. So they will smite our hopes.

 

[Tsyolin]

Pilut seems to be back out.

It becomes more difficult for a goalie to maintain concentration as the threat level decreases. We're going to lull him to sleep and then

This is a corollary to the rope-a-dope strategy employed extensively by the big club.

Channel your inner Dixon Ward lads! Show us your Holzinger!

The big club seems to have contracted the strategy, missing the "rope-a-"

 

[Chainshot]

Nice opening shift.

 

[Tsyolin]

CJ is playing with Asplund and Olofsson now. Or maybe just for that shift? Not sure.

 

[joshjull]

With how well Tage has been going maybe swap him with Simpson.

I thought it was just “play like a dope”.

This PP is embarrassing.

The entire goal of offense is generating quality scoring chances. If a chance turns into a goal or not is basically luck.

A line which is hitting a ton of posts is succeeding at what they’re supposed to do. They need to do more of it, not broken up because a coach like Housley doesn’t understand math.

 

[Chainshot]

Almost. Damn.

 

[Tsyolin]

The Olofsson-Asplund-O'Regan line combined for 0 shots in this game so far. How can a line be so dominant in the regular season be so nonexistent in the post-season.

 

[Tsyolin]

Elie at least is playing desperate.
