They given up almost nothing? Are you watching the games? I'm not giving Carlyle any credit the credit goes to our goaltending. Carolina had breakaways damn near every time Slavin touched the puck with space.Think you have to give Randy a little credit for the last two OT wins.
Also they've given up almost nothing at even strength the last three games. PP could be way better tho
They’ve given up plenty of chances at even strength, our goalies are just covering up the all the crap.Think you have to give Randy a little credit for the last two OT wins.

Nah, Randy still f***ing sucks and anyone who thinks otherwise is really drinking the kool-aid. It's just pointless criticising after every game as it's the exact same criticism as the game before, seeing this team play boring as f*** hockey, getting outplayed most nights and scrap a win because their goalie is the MVP isn't fun or interesting - because all that means if by some miracle this team makes the playoffs, they're going to get utterly embarrassed against any half decent team because they can't play with any sort of discipline or structure - two of the most important things in the playoffs.Yeah I probably should have said 5v5. A lot of those breakaways came on 5v4 or 4v4.
In any case I don't think it's a coincidence that the Randy criticism has gone way down once the injured players (especially Kase) started coming back. I might even be on the verge of admitting Randy is a good coach. People love to criticize because it was such a popular narrative in Toronto for so long because their media whine about everything and think they know about analytics while citing extremely basic stuff like Corsi.
You look at other teams around the league with similar injury levels and they are either significantly worse (Nashville) or in freefall (Vancouver).
Wasn't as bad as people are saying. The first was an absolute gong show. The ducks slowly took the game over after that. The Canes are really good at turning pressure into turnovers, so the chances they got were really spectacular. And they beat our D with some up the middle hail Mary passes for breakaways that never should have worked.Sounds like I missed a banger last night!
