GDT: Enough family stuff, it's hockey time | Wings @ Preds | 8 PM ET

[Pavels Dog]

Dekeyser was just way too passive on the Preds goal. Leaving the shooter that open on a 3-on-2 is not a good idea.

 

[aar000n]

How was that icing?

Agreed. Play the pass but at some point you have to challenge the shooter.

 

[aar000n]

ummmm go ahead hit our goalie its all good.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Can we please bring up XO or someone in place of Kindl? They might make as many mistakes but at least still have the potential to turn into an NHL defenseman.

 

[odin1981]

Kronner went too deep on the weakside he (DDK) was froze into place. If he went to the shooter easy pass to center wide open 15 feet out or because kronner was too deep defending the cross ice one timer/tap in.

Was a good shot though so what can you do.

 

[aar000n]

lmao ok refs

Yeah, I'd rather give up a shot at the circle than one in the slot.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Refs wanting to break in new whistles?

 

[taliababa]

Just tuning in, how's Nosek been? I can't imagine he's had too many shift.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Datsyuk on the "No Finish" line. (helm and jurco)

 

[aar000n]

That tripping call was way to funny. Wing hits his foot he skates forward 2 feet and throws himself to the ground. Looked like my 3 year old niece throwing a temper tantrum.

 

[Claypool]

That was a boring ass period to watch.

 

[odin1981]

Getting kinda worried about the team atm. We just take too many dumb ****ing penalties. Was one of the two big worries I had going into the year and they haven't done much on correcting the problem. That will end us in the playoffs.

Mrazek

another softie. but only howard gets blamed for softies.

How are softies 20 feet out wide open in the scoring area? The shot wasn't some throw it at the net and pray from the perimeter it was a legit high scoring chance. 20 feet is under.3 seconds of reaction time from that distance.

 

[SoupGuru]

What a sign of the times... I'm really looking forward to Quincey's return

apparently people expect goalies to stop every single shot that isn't screened no matter how close the shot is to the net

while it was saveable shot, it certainly isn't a softie.

 

[Pavels Dog]

As expected we look kinda slow without Larkin. Too bad we didn't call up AA.

it was right below his glove. little movement required. he always gets beat low glove.

Yep I completely agree with you.

 

[theYman]

Didn't look like a too exciting 1st. Did it?

One of the best areas to score on any goalie. Go figure

especially on mrazek. that's where all his softies go in. deny it all you want.
