GDT: Game 61 - CBJ vs PHI - 18 Feb, 7pm

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Elvis completely overplayed the puck on both goals, no excuse for him to allow either of them.

Couturier whiffed on his shot. Impossible to predict that. How do you overplay it when they guy was trying to go full backhand and forgot to take the puck with him?

 

[Grouchy]

Elvis got Holtby'ed there...

 

[MFRONE]

Cuz he would have made a difference on either of those?

Korpisalo wouldn’t have been reaching out to knock away that attempted cross ice pass and he would have been in position on the deflection.

On the 2nd I would hope to god he wouldn’t be flopping around like a dead fish.

hold the line lads

Team has no shots on net and no sniff on hard ice so far. Couple attempted pew pews from halfboards blocked

 

[Robert]

First time in CBJ history.... total 2 shots against.... 2 goals against...

What a joke!!!

 

[Cowumbus]

What a start

 

[Fro]

I said Couts pulled a Kucherov

 

[Monstershockey]

We might get one in of fifty shots with our barrage of little pew pew shots from the halfboards. Damn this team got lost fast

I'm hoping this is a little wake up call. I'm curious to see how they respond. Those were two odd goals, off a skate, and a guy loses the puck and it just slides in under a pad. Hope we can get a little puck luck like that.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Bad goal by Elvis? Maybe. But calling for Korpi as a replacement is overlooking much worse play over the past stretch by 14 guys I’ll list playing far worse.

a breakaway is never a goalies fault

 

[MFRONE]

Nyquist didn’t want to make a move and go around the stationary Provorov? There was no reason he should have that shot blocked

You have to create your luck. More dangerous shots tend to go in a little more frequently than potshots. Deflections and people in position for rebounds. We have done none of that.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Don't think I've ever seen a score and shots on net the same almost 10 minutes into the game.

 

[Robert]

Is Kekalainen watching this shit??

 

[ViD]

Peeke scored a goal and then cost us 3

Completely disagree but whatever. We could have had Hasek in net for those and would still be losing. Korpisalo is good but he's not perfect.

Bus burner account ? Try 2 bad bounces , sometimes the puck bounces that way , sometimes you have multiple shutouts in a row

 

[Robert]

hahaha

I love the apologist birds here.... Big guy Elvis sucks so far!!! Period!!!

 

[Fro]

100%...to say otherwise is laughable

 

[JacketFanInFL]

Great start, team!

 

[Fro]

Defense is playing with zero confidence or control

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Peeke is not NHL ready. He has had 2 bad plays that lead to goals in the last 2 games now. I know he had a turnover behind the net against NJ and then to completely misplay the puck in open ice to lead to the breakaway.

 

[ViD]

1 shot in 13 minutes is a bit underwhelming

 

[MoeBartoli]

Yep. He’s showing he’s a “not yet ready for prime time” player. But that day will come, I trust
