GDT: Ducks @ Devils - inevitable Kyle Palmieri hat-trick edition - 4PM PT 7PM ET 1AM CET

[Opak]

**** ****.

 

[Sojourn]

Ugly turnover/play.

 

[kducks]

Ugh....

 

[Emerald Duck]

Oh well, "No Shutout" Freddy gave up his one goal though not his fault. Hopefully we can hold the fort ...

 

[Ducks DVM]

Sami needs to have that

 

[Duck Off]

That right there, Vatanen fans, is why Sami isn't as valuable to this team as Fowler and Lindholm. No reason to give up an odd man rush.

 

[PrototypeX85]

Am I bad Ducks fan for wanting the Ducks to blow this lead in regulation? The way they're playing is just unacceptable.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Just keep playing like you have been, guys. Don't tighten up.

 

[Ducks DVM]

Yes.

 

[Arthuros]

*rocking back and forth, sobbing uncontrollably*

 

[Opak]

If only we played proper hockey in the 2nd period instead of that prevent defense ****, we might not be defending these 1-2 goal leads in the 3rd.

 

[evomacky]

no reason for vats to be that high up.

of course they have to make it interesting.

Yes.

They mostly shut down Devils.

I mean, if he gets the puck it's a great play, but with a 2 goal lead you should be playing to the score. Not risking a 2-on-1.

 

[Opak]

Why do we keep dumping the ****ing puck?!

 

[PrototypeX85]

Yes.

They mostly shut down Devils.

Fair enough. But This prevent defense is just so boring to watch. I prefer the Chicago style of constantly pushing for another goal despite the score. But maybe that's just me.

exactly.

they should be trying to grind out games. no need to make it more difficult as it is to win.

 

[Fighter]

Hold on one minute guys

 

[Ducks DVM]

I wish Lindholm had a lighter tough there.

Nice awareness by Gibson to get a stick to Horcoff

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

You mean we could already be down 2 when the third period starts?

You can't just copy their style without having the personnel to pull it off.

 

[Ducks DVM]

The wink was better on a goal, Getzlaf.

Points for style though.

 

[Lord Flashheart]

They need the wins more than anything.

 

[PrototypeX85]

There's no way they should be satisfied with this win. Terrible effort. Sitting back for two straight periods is not good hockey, in my opinion. Happy with the win, yeah, but they looked like a team that's at the bottom of the league. Maybe I'm overly harsh, but over a third of the season is gone and I see no reason to be excited about where this season is going.

 

[Ducks DVM]

That wasn't icing because...?

No big deal, good win.
