GDT: Canes visiting in LA vs Kings

[Ole Gil]

Gotta give McGinn props, he really broke that stick fast & clean.

Hitting the post is his specialty.

 

[HisIceness]

Now this team is about to go into another slide. This time though, they won't be pulling themselves out of it anytime soon.

 

[hurricure]

At least rod won’t play Hamilton on the pp...hope we get to see the same shit next game again

 

[VAcaniac]

that was one of the least enjoyable Canes games of my life. Predictably boring and they lose. Shocking!

 

[Stormie]

We give winless Quick the shutout. This team can be really, really bad at times.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

The sucky thing is pretty much everyone we needed to lose tonight did. This was for being firmly in the top 8 in the conference (“firm” being relative for time of year).

 

[DougieSmash]

we can't beat ducks at home and kings. two of the bottom 5 teams in thea league. it's over.

 

[A Star is Burns]

1 goal in 2 games to blow great goaltending. Pitiful. Even my optimism is blown at this point in time. I'd love to see changes, but I don't have much faith in it.

 

[Primetime8]

**** all the grinding BS and get someone who can put the puck in the back of the net.

 

[CandyCanes]

Cue us losing 6-5 next game. Brilliant goaltending went to waste

 

[bleedgreen]

Quicks first win of the season.

The Carolina Hurricanes, the cure to all that ails you.

As Tripp just noted.....blow a 5 on 3 in this game late and you deserve to lose.

We DID have him. Now the dude is 2nd in the NHL in scoring

 

[Navin R Slavin]

I can’t blame McGinn. He’s the only guy making plays tonight.

We’ve got zero goals. You can’t win a lot of games that way.

We get it Tripp, it was Brocks guy.

And you know, he looks so upset with himself on the bench, and he's gonna feel like this game was his fault.

It wasn't his fault. The Canes gameplan is: play literally a perfect defensive game, put a billion bad shots on goal, and hope one of them goes in. Just like it was under Peters.

The best hope we had tonight was stealing a point with a 0-0 tie in regulation. That's pathetic. It's just pathetic.

Sigh. This f***ing team.

Hilarious that Williams is out there. Svech benched for Williams on a 5v3. The one time where you can’t use “protecting him from tough minutes” as an excuse for not giving him ice time.

 

[raynman]

Man this team sure does lose in depressing fashion.

 

[Canes]

A lot of it has to do with Brindy's obsession with putting garbage cans on skates in Williams and Staal in prominent roles on the PP.

Dude is a f***ing moron who is in love with veterans and playing dinosaur hockey. I am through with him already.

 

[bleedgreen]

I mean, you can't watch that game and not think, okay, time to call up a checker or two. This is ridiculous. They can't score for ****.

It’s going to be interesting to watch Rod figure this out. He’s ridiculously loyal to his guys, especially those who try hard. He needs to sit someone to bring one of those guys up.

I’m holding my breath.

Sigh. This ****ing team.

This is exactly why a AHL coach that coaches an open, fasted paced game should be our HC. *Cough* Velucci *Cough*

Rod does get the boys to play pretty hard. But man he’d have this team winning more games if he just used a little bit of common sense. He’s overthinking as a coach with moves like stated above.

The Pp got Aho 2 empty net one timers, and he flubbed one and flat out whiffed on the 2nd. Those were easy goals. We’re talking Wallmark could’ve finished those chances easy.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Mrazek and McElhinney will learn to hate this team.

Said it last game. Will always love Rod the player. Rod the coach should have been canned with Muller. But because nepotism runs deep in the blood of this franchise, he gets to stay and eventually promoted, all the while not showing any proof he deserves to even be an assistant.

Best thing we can hope for is he resigns at seasons end.

 

[bouncesonly]

Canes are good, they’ll make playoffs. Quick was just not down with the tank tonight. Also very jealous you guys have Forslund. That dude is legit play by play caller, should be him over Emerick for all national games.

 

[Mathios]

Mrazek and McElhinney will learn to hate this team.

Exactly what i was thinking. As soon as that game ended, if i'm Mrazek, i would straight up stab Williams. Or Rod, whoever was closest to me.

 

[Drivebytrucker]

Aren't we still paying Alexander Semin 2.1 million a year?

Desperate times....
