GDT: Game #36 | 12/27/14 |Detroit Red Wings @ Ottawa Senators | 7:00 PM | FS-D, CBC

[Henkka]

Always lift it on the roof net. god damned. Over the pads, over the pads.

 

[theYman]

OTL. I'm calling it.

 

[Sheriff Bert]

Stone hands has to lift that pick up there. Golden opportunity

 

[f1seb]

I know he's a fan favorite, but how about trading Helm while he's still worth something? We have people that can take his place no problem.

 

[Bench]

Do we?

I think one of the frustrating things about him is that he gets golden chances but doesn't finish, but do we have other guys even getting those golden chances as often?

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

Big Rig with ANOTHER turnover. Ruin's an offensive zone set up.

 

[KJoe88]

Dude Ericsson. WTF?!?!?!

UGGGGHHHH

 

[Kronwalled55]

I would argue that we're more shorthanded when Ericsson is on the ice rather than when he's in the box.

Honestly he's one of our best trade pieces. Been in favor of trading him for a bit and I love the guy.

 

[Sheriff Bert]

Kindl>E right now. If we're going to have trashy defenders we mind as well play one that can play PP too.

 

[detredWINgs]

Are we taking precautions with Weiss?? He's been great since his big return - so why has he only played 8 minutes?

 

[Henkka]

Shots 8-3 for us in the 3rd. COMEBACK AGAIN.

Kind of looking like they're taking it easy with him.

I don't think our PK system allows for a lot if short handed opportunities. As it stands right now Helm really isn't a top 6 forward and we've got glenny to hold down the 4C spot. Riley can hold 3C and Weiss 2C. Depth is just putting him out of a job.

The golden chances don't even matter since the safest place to be is inside the net when Helm has a break. But he is a good skater, and a good penalty killer. I'm sure some team could use him. We're busting at the seams with kids needing to move up. Glendenning is fine at PK's and he can take Helm's place. He seems to have the same type of stone hands as Helm too.

 

[The Geelee]

Tatar with a lazy penalty

 

[Henkka]

Kindl>E right now.

Nope.

Quality of competition.

[SoupGuru]

Not a great thing to be noticed for, Tatar

 

[theYman]

Stop taking penalties!!! Good god!!

 

[The Geelee]

Glenny is a beast

 

[SimplySolace]

Stone hand twins!

 

[SoupGuru]

Shorties, shmorties. If our PK plays like this all year, I have NO complaints.

 

[KJoe88]

Why can't it be Pavel on a breakaway...

 

[Cyborg Yzerberg]

Speaking of stone hands

 

[Jusek]

Another stonehand there.
