That's a decent game.

[Satrebil]

Pulkkinen is staying up.

 

[PelagicJoe]

Terrible first period. Good 2nd and 3rd.

 

[Konnan511]

So Pulu has more goals than Jurco now....

 

[Claypool]

Giving up 40+ shots to the Oilers is nothing to be happy about.

 

[Tasteslikekevinbacon]

Pulu with the GWG

 

[Amrcn Ftbll]

Like I said, I never feel too good about wins against the oilers. I mean like, they are the oilers.

 

[Bench]

Pookie with a nice game, eh? Gets #1 star.

 

[Shadywing19]

See?....the sky has not fallen.

 

[Hunting Bow*]

Howard played very well tonight. Hopefully some how some way he stops the roller coaster.

A lot of weak shots from the perimeter. What were the scoring chances like?

 

[TatarTangle]

Pulkkinen with the first star for the game

I'd like to see how many goals Pulkkinen can score playing with Miller and Andersson.

Glendening had 8.

 

[PullHard]

Was kinda worried that would happen

Not to be a downer but coming out sleepwalking and ending up with a 2 EN goal victory over the Oilers doesn't strike me as a tremendous outing by our group

Was kind of hoping for a reason for the team to wake up

How many games did Jurco play with Sheahan, Datsyuk, Tatar or Nyquist?

Jurco has had plenty of opportunities with quality skill players.

 

[Konnan511]

Zetterberg had one of his best games I have seen in a long time. Tatar was a stud and besides the first goal stinker, JHowww was a beast. Datsyuk was also fantastic.

More than Jurco, he hits the net when he elevates the puck. I don't think it means much long-term. I thought both guys played well tonight.

Jurco continues to handle the puck though like it is a hand-grenade too much for my liking however.

 

[PelagicJoe]

3 stars:

Sheahan
Pulkkinen
Datsyuk

HM: Abdelkader

I am also thinking about boarding the "Jurco is underwhelming" train soon.

Pulkkinen actually shoots the puck, Jurco does not.

meh. mediocre win but i will take

Glendening had 8.

Pretty much what Heaton said. Pulkkinen hasn't been handed anything on a platter. Difference is he's producing in his limited opportunities and Jurco hasn't in a while.

I haven't soured on Jurco at all, though. Just think he's having growing pains from being a very young player in a system that doesn't usually include guys that young. Next season will be huge for him.

EDIT:

And 3 stars are Pulkkinen, Howard, and Datsyuk.

 

[TatarTangle]

In regards to the poll: Voted for Seasons 1 and 2 of House of Cards is a good show. I understand what they were going for in season 3 but it was "meh" at best.

Jurco has had 70 mins on the PP this season, he's has plenty of chances.
