GDT: Blackhawks vs Canadiens - 5pm - Original 6 Beat Down

[ColdSteel2]

Yeah, this is scary, either JC is here for a tank or he has a hard on for the vets bigger than Q.


Not good.

JC wants to establish his physical defense and is using Seabs and Manning to set the example, but it’s getting ridiculous at this point.

 

[RememberTheRoar]

Now it is becoming a trend. PP time impacted it but I think he would be on the PP as well.

Is there any reasonable explanation for what Colliton is doing this?

 

[AmericanDream]

Yeah but Joker is in the doghouse. He honestly looked so good when Q was here. Colliton comes in and now he looks scared and tentative. I hate JC for that and I’m now scared for the youth.

Joker is not on the power play either...not sure he Pk'd either - if he didn't play special teams today, his ice time was going to blow...not agreeing with it all but need to put it in some context tonight only..

 

[RichManitoba]

What are your thoughts why Don Granato was retained? Is he next on the chopping block. ......just because?

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Joker is not on the power play either...not sure he Pk'd either - if he didn't play special teams today, his ice time was going to blow...not agreeing with it all but need to put it in some context tonight only..

Unfortunately this is a trend since JC has got here. Remember him saying Joker needed to be better 2 games in when he was playing the best out of everyone?

Not sure if anyone has asked him.

To that point, Jokiharju had 0 power play time, Seabrook had nearly 10 minutes. Jokiharju had more even strength time than Seabrook

 

[RememberTheRoar]

Not sure if anyone has asked him.

Hopefully they do tonight

 

[BK]

To that point, Jokiharju had 0 power play time, Seabrook had nearly 10 minutes. Jokiharju had more even strength time than Seabrook

Then I am not sure if it is a trend then. I stand corrected.

 

[AmericanDream]

To that point, Jokiharju had 0 power play time, Seabrook had nearly 10 minutes. Jokiharju had more even strength time than Seabrook

and this is what people need to realize...the minutes are one thing but still need to be understood... Seabs got a shit tone of PP minutes, nothing more than that..his overall minutes are just jaded because of the amount of power play time he got..

but what needs to be addressed is why is Joker NOT getting power play minutes??? that I want an answer from JC on....

That’s an issue here. JC would rather give Seabrook 10 power play minutes than let Jokiharju sniff the power play for even a single second?

 

[RememberTheRoar]

Then I am not sure if it is a trend then. I stand corrected.

Jokiharju still had fewer ES minutes than Keith, Gus, and Murphy. Also had 0 seconds of power play time. Even Murphy saw 5 seconds.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

He’s actually buried under 50 feet of crap in the doghouse. I’m honestly baffled.

Hopefully Colliton gets Savarded next season.

Just not ready for the NHL. Can’t be too mad at him but Bowman needs to find a new coach in the offseason.

We're already wishing for the savior coach to be canned??

 

[BK]

That is top 4 time which is fine.

 

[RememberTheRoar]

Nobody ever called him a savior. So sick of people throwing that word around here.

 

[RememberTheRoar]

That is top 4 time which is fine.

Ya, realized that after I typed. Still, the PP time is crazy, no?

 

[AmericanDream]

That is top 4 time which is fine.

agreed. but with Manning hurt or not that seems to have helped Joker - we will see next game what happens with his minutes, if it is low again and not 12 power plays, then JC is f***ing blind and messing with the wrong player here..

 

[deytookerjaabs]

Well, yeah, you'd think when you have a ****ing **** power play you'd let Joker and some other players have a shot on alternating units.

 

[AmericanDream]

Well, yeah, you'd think when you have a ****ing **** power play you'd let Joker and some other players have a shot on alternating units.

we did look good at times on the power play, but yeah, might want to try that kid there as he has been there before and looked good doing it..

 

[BK]

Well, yeah, you'd think when you have a ****ing **** power play you'd let Joker and some other players have a shot on alternating units.

I don’t have an issue with Seabrook being there. I am a fan a big shot there on the point as it forces the defenders to respect the point.

For the record, he would just be keeping it warm for Boqvist.

 

[Panzerspitze]

It's not like Seabrook shoots much on the PP anyway

 

[BK]

Sarcasm?

I hadn't heard it; I didn't realize it was a thing. A month ago, a lot of people felt that Q was the biggest problem with the team when he was clearly overachieving with a crap roster. Now, instead of realizing they were wrong, people want another new coach.
