GDT: CBJ vs NJD

[thebus88]

Hannikainen is coming in off the right wing, Murray wisely slows down the play by looking off the center lane drive to go to Hanni, Hanni doesn't change his speed nor his stick position, and Murray knows he's coming. Murray misses, and the resulting bounce off the skate is what causes the turnover to lead the other way. I'm sorry, but it's on Murray to hit that pass. He's wide open and doesn't change skating speed or stick position, he wanted the puck directly on his forehand, not in front of him.



I'm not even sure what you're getting at here. Jones'?

MISSES what?

Hannikainen mishandled the puck, Murray didn't miss.

Every pass that isn't "tape to tape" is considered "missing"?

Hannikainen is who causes the turnover by not changing his stick position and attempting to accept the pass with his skate. The only thing Murray did "wrong" was throw the puck across the ice a little hard. Could've been corralled easily by Hannikainen on his backhand.

The pokecheck mentioned is the laughable attempt by Bobrovsky.

2 more points. Unsustainability SUSTAINED.

I don’t know what more to show you. You’re wrong in blaming Hannikainen. Murray is at fault here for missing his stick. The bounce was unfortunate, but if he hits hannikainen in stride, or if he missed and doesn’t have so much heat on it, this goal likely doesn’t happen.

Also, lol at making fun of bob as if he didn’t stop an earlier breakaway in the game and didn’t have a good game.

Bob had a good game. Yes, it was a bad pass. It's one goal - and a nice one by their best skater. Frankly, if each player on this team only made one bad pass per game, it would be an improvement.

One turnover is no big deal.

An easier critique is that the route Murray and Jones take after the turnover is too wide and slow. They have to know that Taylor Hall is there.

He literally HIT Hannikainen WITH the pass.

This isn't bubble hockey, EA Sports, or the D league down at the 'Chiller' or whatever rink is down there.

Its on Hannikainen to receive the pass. It wasn't behind him or in front of him.
