GDT: CAR - TBL

[bluedevil58]

if Mzarek drops the ball tonight then he should be waived. No exceptions.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I wish Dan Ellis was still playing. He'd be a good pickup for the Canes.

If mrazek lets in goals while not even half of an AHL squad is iced in front of him and facing tampas top lines he should be wavied. The hot taeks are staring early i guess.

Oh damn this is their NHL vs our AHL line up. Why is it that I feel that Tampa is the one team Carolina is never ever able to beat?

If Mrazek posts a shutout he should be anointed starter and be given a 4 year deal.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

If Mrazek allows some goals, but prevents others, we should not make any judgments because it's a preseason game against a team that's icing a bunch of NHL regulars.

There, now our bases are covered.

Hot take: Dan Ellis was pretty good for the Canes, until he was rushed back from an injury because Cam also got injured. (if my memory is working)

Go team go

Ellis only played 19 games for the Canes with a .906 SV%. "pretty good" is relative I guess.

Terrible take. Just embarrassing.

 

[GoldiFox]

If Mrazek posts a shutout he should be anointed starter and be given a 4 year deal.

And if Nedeljkovic gets a shutout in the 2nd half he gets the exact same deal and is anointed co-starter.

 

[MinJaBen]

Hot Taek #1!

 

[Wolfpuck]

I guess they'll let anybody post around here these days.

That explains me still being here.

Well, these lines are interesting to say the least. Hopefully first two lines can show us something good, we need some of these guys on our main roster later.

Not completely covered. You've left open one possibility for Mrazek's save%:

Holy shit, when you put it out there like that it doesn’t even look like an AHL lineup. Dear God.

We get it wrong from the get-go: it's the goal we need to cover.

 

[WreckingCrew]

If the other team scores a goal on their first shot, then we score on our own goal, could he technically have a -1.000 SV%?

With the amount of baseball references Tripp randomly adds to the broadcast, I get confused.

Typical Southern hockey fan--thinking hockey is played with a ball. Move to QC already....dang Bettman....hockey is for Canadians, eh!!!!

 

[The Stranger]

Hot take: Dan Ellis was pretty good for the Canes, until he was rushed back from an injury because Cam also got injured. (if my memory is working)

Ellis was scheduled for a start, but became sick...Ward played and injured his MCL. After Ward was out for the year, Ellis and Peters split starts...both with sub-900 SV% after Ward's injury.

I think Ellis was OK as a backup...but he couldn't hack it as a starter.

 

[Lempo]

Does the US baseball know tactical ball drops btw?

In the Finnish version, if a defending player catches the stricken ball straight from air before it hits the ground, the baserunners who are moving between bases at that strike (but make it safely to the base before the ball gets there) get "wounded", meaning that they are removed from the baserunning but it doesn't count as an out.

Guys who are more batters than runners (and come to the batting plate with the purpose to move the existant runners in the field up bases with the first two strikes) often try with their final third strike to wound themselves with an intentional easy-catch strike so they don't have to do the running duties beyond the the lazy jog to the 1st.

The defending players, obviously aware of this, often will initially make the easy catch but then immediately and obviously open the glove and let the ball drop, to make it not count as a straight catch so the fat **** won't get wounded but instead will need to become a baserunner.

Is it just me, or is there an inordinate amount of "K"s in that lineup? The 3rd line doesn't stand a chance.

Just sub in Kuokkanen for Pu and they’ll be good to go.
