CLEAR
THE
CREASE

 

[None Shall Pass]

Again, NOBODY to help. Poor Gilles having the game of his life getting hung out to dry.

 

[Tiredswede]

that's hughes guy... he'll learn

 

[Oneiro]

welp

Yeah, my bad.

* price is right horn *

 

[Bleedred]

Would have been nice if we got a save on that cheap second goal that was pretty soft. That might be the difference in the game.

 

[MauDevils]

f*** off, dumpster fire defending tonight.

...tonight?

 

[DerekDevils30]

Ugh. How that becomes a 2-on-1….

 

[Call Me Al]

gillies has played well but man he really took himself out of that one

I thought the first one worse, the 2nd one was on a 2-on-1 at least.

Notice all the Lightning players in front of Vasilesky Notice all the lightning players in front of Gilles ... lol uncaany

I enjoyed this post. Made me laugh.

 

[Whaddagoal]

This team is so unable to build momentum from important goals...

 

[youryeah]

how many times have they either tied it up/taken the lead and then AT MOST 2 minutes later give up a goal lol. so frustrating

 

[Tiredswede]

Sharangovich is doing nothing on that line. I'd like to see 11, 37 or 14 there instead

 

[None Shall Pass]

I'd like to see 37 fired into the sun but that's because my eyes work lol

 

[MauDevils]

Stamkos goes from the corner straight to the net untouched.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

[OmNomNom]

Maybe Lindy gets fired after this lol

 

[Dylan9z9]

Yeah this is gonna work

 

[Tiredswede]

Maybe Lindy gets fired after this lol

this is not at all the kind of game that gets a coach fired. best game in a long time

CLEAR
THE
CREASE

We don’t because that’s not the system, we chase the puck to the perimeter in extra numbers.

The aggressive “quick possession if you win, oopsie if you don’t” is actually the plan.

Someone should have hustled back faster when they lost the battle but the players might have not known who goes where. (A common problem when everyone ends up all over the place chasing the puck in man defense.)

This system also makes young, fatigued players more prone to mental mistakes and these guys are playing ridiculous minutes because of the lack of depth. (Which is very annoying because that was a predictable problem, but whatever.)

 

[OmNomNom]

Listening to Tampa's announcer, Jesus - we really are amateur hour

 

[Hockey Sports Fan]

When was the last time we actually got to a rebound?

The Devils are content to take lazy point shots with nobody crashing and teams are content to crowd the middle and let them fire away.
