Are we a wagon? Feels like we're a wagon...
I'm gonna agree with Otter's body language that I didn't like the 2nd goal against - not that it was a softy, just felt like he should have had it. Oh well, 1 "should've had it" goal per 4 games is pretty darn good and will win him the Vezina if he can keep it up.
One silver lining to sending WJ back down is that he will hopefully be fresher and able to contribute during a playoff run next spring, versus keeping him up and burning him out by around game 50 (which seems to be about where 19 year olds hit the wall).

Hakanpaa needs to sit for a game. These penalties are getting ridiculous and overall he just looked like shit out there tonight.

I'd still take him over Hanley tbh. He does bring much needed physicality back there

Agreed. He'll likely stop taking penalties soon enough, and he's the only legitimate physical presence we have on defense.

At least Hanley wouldn't be putting us shorthanded multiple times per game like Jani has been doing. The main thing that gives me pause is that it would mess up our righty/lefty balance that we have going rn. I like Jani but these penalties have been driving me crazy.

It's very funny how every dude is volunteering how much they hated the Bowness game.
Really makes you wonder how much better the team could have been had they canned Bowness during the season.

Thought the same thing as I finally found a stream online to watch the game, it's basically the same team. Sure, add Marchment and sub out Klingberg, but it's the same guys pushing to win, possessing the puck and not turtling with a lead. Oh, and the young players get to play.
Carlos had today played out beautifully to set up tomorrow’s disappointment

I like to think of them as resting on the counter.

So basically whatever line you put Guri on becomes useless is what we've learned tonight.

Pretty sure back in Lulea they called him Nisse.
Freely translated elf, fairy or pixie as in magic with the puck

I was a Guri fan during his breakout season, even bought his winter classic jersey. His confidence is just shot and looks so lost. Which is weird because his training camp and preseason he looked great.
