Meh. Lose in the lottery at the end after hitting two posts. Unlucky.
Decent performance against a good team who are very strong at home. 1st period was iffy, last 40 minutes we were the better team.
Hamhuis was absolutely terrific ... except on the PP. Not sure why he's now the #1 option on the point on the PP, when he should be #5 if you include Weber. But otherwise that was his best game of the season, and the early worries about his play are long gone.
Sedins controlled play but were getting mauled again. Need to shoot more.
No issue with the Kassian hit on Vrbata. Was boarding and a 2 minute penalty, but you want him punishing the top players on the other team. Announcers whining way too much about it.
Luongo was good. Rebound control right now is very strong.
Santorelli continues to excel. Another terrific performance for him. Maybe our best forward tonight.
Bottom 6 continues to be iffy. Need some guys back.

I'd rather see Bure's wife.....
Actually, I'd just rather see Bure's wife.
I don't even care about the loss now. She's so awesome.

Lol. Hard to take it seriously after Emery (4 goals on 15 shots) got 3rd star for assaulting Holtby (0 goals on 20+ shots).
Like Burrows did? Give me a break. There is no point in saying what a player "should" do in a shootout. Sometimes some things work and sometimes others do. Analyzing the shootout is an exercise in futility.
It is a dice roll. We tied. Again. Our 58th tie of the season.
This loss stings a bit, thought we could have put away a very good pheonix team (who is amazing on home ice so far) at various times tonight, and we had chances to win this, higgins hit the post, edler still taking way to long to get his shot off in OT.
But loosing in a shootout is nothing to get furious over.

Doesn't mean there is no reason that things look bleak for this road trip, we are going to face some good teams. I'm not so sure about SJ, but I am pretty damn confident that the LA and ANA games are more than winnable.

I'll take that bet.
I can literally eat a steak, digest and **** before the get to the net.
I'm guessing Torts got the memo concerning Sedins and shootouts but chose not to believe it or wanted to see for himself.
He ought to have seen enough by now. He better not go with a Sedin EVER again.

Ewwww... really?
Didn't do it for me.
Henrik with a beautiful pass to the boards....in the shootout
As soon as I saw Daniel and Henrik going in for the shootout I knew they wouldn't score. They should be banned from the shootouts.
You must be thrilled.
After being noticeably silent for most of the season while the Sedins have been unreal, this has given you a perfect opportunity to get back on your anti-Sedin soap box.

Professional Winner.
And I can walk to your house and shove it back down your throat in the time it took Burrows to get to the net. Yet he scored, so what?

Daniel's attempt was passable. just need to lift it a bit.
Henrik - LOL. It's almost like he has too much time and too many options that no decision gets made.
Im not the biggest bieksa fan, but I would like to see him get a chance in the shootout as well.
No, you misread, he was asking if Henrik is a better shootout option than anyone else.
I would have preferred Kassian and Edler over the Sedins.
Just curious, what does Gulutzan do? Sully draws up the last minute plays and that's who Torts consults with for the shootout as well.
