GDT: Game 5: Coyotes @ Jets - 5PM - FSAZ

[RABBIT]

Keller has 3 pts in 5 games, not worried yet, but he has to have more urgency. He's getting points.

3 pts for Schmaltz tonight, awesome to see him coming through.

Oesterle blicked a shot and never returned...

If he's down for any amount of time they absolutely must make a trade or even recall Soderstrom.

He did. He was on the bench for the last face off, looked ok.

happy with the two points for sure. Don’t think we controlled the play and certainly took advantage of opportunities we should have but feel like we were outplayed. That third period was a classic tippet period to me.

Still not real thrilled with Kessel. I know it’s early but to go 5 games already, on a new team, without finding the net is not as advertised. Again, early, I know, just wish we had that guy that pots goals consistently.

 

[MIGs Dog]

recall Soderstrom.

Is that possible?

 

[Muppet]

Schmaltz is now ppg and outscoring Strome, therefore Chayka wins the trade

Is that possible?

If the player agrees and he has an NHL out or his club simply releases him, it should be. The rules that govern euro to NHL transfers are a lot less convoluted than CHL to AHL/NHL.

 

[Art.Vandelay]

Dvo ALMOST smirked, I saw it.

That's the first time I think I've ever seen anything close to a smile from him.

 

[Name Nameless]

Holding a wild-card spot in this moment.

 

[Plub]

Outplayed ANA
Outplayed Boston
Outplayed VGK
Played even with Colorado
Outplayed WPG up until all the penalties

That's pretty damn good. Those are some real good teams to go against as well.

Dvo really needs to shoot more, his shot is so damn accurate.

 

[Bonsai Tree]

Just finished watching. Damn, but are they quick to the puck. Speed to the puck outshined the talent gap tonight. That and a superb goal tending performance by Kuemper.

Game was so fast I could barely follow. Lost sight of puck several times. Felt so old. But that's ok, as the game was won.

 

[Coyotedroppings]

Y'all y'all still hating Schmaltz?
Just curious.

One of his best games as a Coyote, was involved along the boards, battled hard all night and he was rewarded. Good for him.

 

[Jagged Ice]

YES! We win in the Peg!

Can't wait until the Jets move to Tucson.

 

[Mosby]

Remember when our biggest rival gave us Darcy Kuemper basically for free?

I still think we overpaid.

 

[Tad Mikowski]

I still think we overpaid.

Reider and Wedgewood? That's an overpay?

Love Garland.

Want to see Soderberg and Stepan Switch spots. Would be happy to to Hayton come in for Fischer again.

Dvo-Schmaltz-Garland
Keller-Soderberg-Kessel
Crouse-Stepan-Hayton
Grabner-Richardson-Stroza

Soda doesn't have a chance in hell of keeping pace with Keller and Kessel.

[Bonsai Tree]

I thought Fish played well tonight. We needed his size and strength.

That’s not what they need. Stepan really can’t anyway. Not the point. They need someone who can pull defenders to them, and win battles one-on-one. They can’t establish anything in the offensive zone because they get boxed out and lose possession. Nobody gets inside. I’d suggest Garland but they need a center. Behind Garland, Soderberg is our best power forward.

He was fine. I don’t think he will ever generate offense. Every time I see him hve a good game, he looks more like a. Great 4th liner.

He doesn’t have the hands of a scorer.

Reider and Wedgewood? That's an overpay?

We retained on Rieder, and I think he had more value than a career back up who had been up and down playwise. It seems just as likely he may have went back to Minnesota Keumper, and I thought/still think Rieder could have brought more in return than Keumper if we had made separate moves

Even then, though, noone was losing sleep over giving up Rieder (and his agent) especially since he'd lost a step and Tocchet wasn't impressed, relegating him to fourth line minutes .

Obviously, it has worked out swimmingly in hindsight.
