Watched the highlights.
Lol at our second consecutive game starting like that. I get they're tired, which I would have forgave if they didn't look like they did yesterday, but two nights in a row? My god.
Two of our four goals were off goalie missplays/mistakes. We really only earned two of our goals, and I get goals are goals and it doesn't matter, but the game seemed far closer on the scoreboard than it actually was played.
Despite giving up 5 goals, I think Kiv was alright. Two goals given up in the last minute of a period, and he absolutely needs to stop the 4th goal. Bad rebound control. The first goal was unlucky and forgivable. Second goal he got lost and was slow to react to the puck, not necessarily his fault since it was a weird bounce, but you'd like your defense or goalie to bail you out there. Third goal Wasn't really his fault, as it was an unlucky bounce off the skate right to Koivu, but I again think you need your goalie to make that save. Fourth goal was really bad, by both him and the defense. Fifth goal wasn't on him, as it was horrid defense by Harrington and Stenlund while also an unlucky bounce off the linesman.
Oh yeah and we should keep Werenski.

Playoffs are shot. Games in hand is at an extreme disadvantage, and of course the injuries are the biggest killer. Unless they go back to winning games 2-1 or 3-2, they're not going to win very many games down the stretch. Hell, with Carolina, Florida, CBJ, and NYI all fumbling around the Rangers are probably going to get in, even though they're rebuilding and sold at the deadline.

I think their defense is absolutely bad, they allow 40+ shots nearly every game. I think Washington would take them easily

random observation:
after starting off his 2019-2020 campaign with 8 points in 13 games, Nathan Gerbe has 2 points in his last 16 games and is a -11 in that span. YOWZA.

pretty sure that was also the exact time he signed his extension
Is this right: five rookie forwards, two rookie defensemen, and a rookie goalie in tonight’s lineup? And they came back from 4-1 after two periods to make it a game?

they made it a game but ultimately lost, yes.
this time of the year, there's no 'well played' losses. a win is a win, a loss is a loss. a W is more than needed, friday in our state's capital.

At least he has a 2 way deal. Robinson is a 1 way deal and also deserves to be in Cleveland.

But Robinson can be buried in Cleveland with no cap hit. It just costs the Jackets some unnecessary $ not a guaranteed roster spot.

Many, including me, have wondered about PLD’s play lately. Porty quoted Torts as using the word “fatalistic” about PLD’s mental approach. Put it all together and it’s clear PLD doesn’t dig the all-defensive approach his ears are hearing. So as to his recent play, maybe here’s the answer.

You know what I’m personally glad for this game. We’re done for the year so I feel comfortable canceling my Sling and saving $30 a month since I won’t need it to watch playoffs.
Yes, the Gerbe magic is gone. Amazing that Jarmo gave him a two-year deal off of 13 games lmao

No doubt. How could it take so long? Many folks around here can tell you what’s what after just one!
