GDT: Game 11: Golden Knights @ Blackhawks 5pm

[HanSolo]

PP time

 

[Huokaus]

Just happened to notice that with a win today Fleury would pass Sawchuk as the sole 7th place holder in all-time goalie wins. Was a quite a shocker that he's so high up the rankings, could push for top 5 this season already.

 

[Nevada Jones]

FLOWER!

 

[HanSolo]

Lol Glass seemingly demoted from powerplay duties because....

I don't know you guys figure it out and get back to me.

 

[Vegan Knight]

Stone-Eakin-Pirri is one. With the wings reversed.

They have to split up Eakin and Pirri to give their lines a better chance. Eakin isn't very creative offensively and Pirri is good to shoot but needs players creating for him.

 

[Nevada Jones]

PK. Per usual.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Fudge.

 

[HanSolo]

How many goals do they have to score before Gallant realizes these lines are f***ing broken?

 

[Nevada Jones]

I shall not let this spoil my enjoyment of dinner.

Back later.

Lol Glass seemingly demoted from powerplay duties because....

I don't know you guys figure it out and get back to me.

We saw the same players without Glass on the power play last season. It was ugly.

 

[Vegan Knight]

How many goals do they have to score before Gallant realizes these lines are ****ing broken?

What are they?

Smith-Karlsson-Stastny
Pacioretty-Glass-Marchessault
Pirri-Eakin-Stone

 

[VegasKnightlife]

Not really sure what Gallant is doing the last two games. Stone should not be playing on the third line. It's not working either.

 

[Knightmare]

Lines for the 2nd period

Pirri-Fleury-Reaves
Marchy-Merril-Gallant
Statsny-Karlsson-Eakin
Chance-Stone-Nosek

Glass in goal

 

[Vegan Knight]

It looks like the lines are normal again except they switched Carrier and Pirri.

 

[Vegas07]

What are they?

Smith-Karlsson-Stastny
Pacioretty-Glass-Marchessault
Pirri-Eakin-Stone

I guess there is the hope that Stone could get Pirri and Eakin going, and a line with Stone in it will always be a threat. But putting your best player on the 3rd line?

 

[Vegan Knight]

How was that a penalty? I'm beginning to think more about IceNeophyte's conspiracy theory lol.

 

[Vegas07]

Another penalty. Of course.

 

[Vegas07]

Only 11 shots on goal in this game. And Fleury making great saves.

 

[HanSolo]

The guy in net is the only one playing like he gives a shit.

 

[Vegan Knight]

The guy in net is the only one playing like he gives a ****.

The rest of them are taking one.

 

[IceNeophyte]

Lmao on that "roughing" by engo

 

[The Duck Knight]

I'm not too worried about the lack of goals lately. I think the forwards are overcompensating for the group of plugs on the back end. Also doesn't help said group of plugs has been atrocious moving the puck.

 

[IceNeophyte]

The rest of them are taking one.

Carrier is working his arse off.

 

[IceNeophyte]

How was that a penalty? I'm beginning to think more about IceNeophyte's conspiracy theory lol.

The tv guys got it spot on: "2 minutes for being stronger"

 

[Nevada Jones]

The dinner, she was good. The Flower, he was great. The rest, not so much.

This team is so hard to watch at times. Makes me less disappointed that I'll be missing the next few games. Maybe they'll figure things out in my absence. And maybe Schmidt and/or even Tuchsy will be back.
