GDT: Blackhawks (14-33-2) @ Flames (21-22-5) at 8 pm

That was a pretty even period

in most cases that would be good. Well, if we weren't playing the Chicago Blackhawks.

We suck. The Hawks are an AHL team playing in the NHL.

 

[Felidae]

I agree.

Also I need to see more from Coronato.

I agree. He doesn't really do much beside get his shot off quickly.

But it's also important to note at Coronato's age, Zary wasn't even in the NHL. Coronato's 21 year old season in the AHL was over a PPG (29 points in 27 games). Much more productive pace than Zary's, who had 58 points in 72 games.

Not to say he'll develop better than Zary, but there's still some time for Coronato even if he gets sent back to the AHL this year.

Marks flashing some serious leather there

 

[Felidae]

A powerplay, brace yourselves

 

[Tofveve]

Power Play!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[JPeeper]

Chicago PP is 32nd our is 30th.

Please don't make me watch this.

 

[Tofveve]

Just win back pass to behind our net from their end. Better setup there.

Yes we're the best!!!!

 

[Felidae]

We are lucky the Blackhawks suck

 

[Tofveve]

Did Millen just say "can we decline?" Lol

 

[Felidae]

Blackhawks SH had more chances than our PP. Embarassing.

 

[Rubi]

Coronato better figure it out fairly soon or he's going back to the Wranglers. In 15 games he has 1 goal and 2 assists. He scored his only goal in his 2nd game with the Flames.

 

[Tofveve]

Coronato put himself into a pretzel on that missed one-timer.

Yup.

 

[JPeeper]

Maybe stop giving up a breakaway every 4 minutes, eventually they'll actually score on one.

 

[User1996]

This is embarrassing

 

[Rubi]

Boy oh boy the Hawks are getting a lot of breakaways tonight. We really do suck.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Does Markstrom just have a breakaway fetish that maybe the public doesn't know about?

 

[Felidae]

Markstrom bailing the team, again.

3 Breakaways already.

 

[Tofveve]

Marks gets to practice his breakaways a lot with this squad

 

[Tofveve]

Are they all doing crossword puzzles so feverishly up there?

What does it matter? If the team finally lets go of these frankly silly playoff aspirations honestly who cares.

Or do I have to relive Bennett hasn't scored in 3 games let's banish him to the 4th line forever for forever.

 

[Tofveve]

Score one for the home crowd boys

 

[Rubi]

A young developing team like the Hawks really need these confidence building games.

 

[Felidae]

Lord have mercy, another PP

I have no issue with sending Coronato back to the Wranglers. Playing a couple of seasons there will be good for him. It did wonders for Zary. Frankly, I was never on the Coronato hype wagon. Its an exceptional player that can step right into the NHL and be successful. Coronato is good but he's not exceptional.

 

[Tofveve]

Lindy!!!!
