[KIRK]

Jack Johnson's pinching decisions are quite the adventure . . .

It would be nice to win this in regulation

 

[MrBurghundy]

Sullivan is essentially using our forwards like we only have 10. Same as last game.

 

[Pancakes]

I just don't understand some of the plays we're trying to make. Sheahan trying that chincy play on the pk. Dumoulin just now ignoring a wide open Crosby and going up the middle of the ice instead for a turnover.

Just stupid stupid plays. Beating ourselves.

He was supposed to be a good skater. Looks pretty sluggish tonight.

 

[PensandCaps]

All I know is that DeSmith allows fewer goals. Unfortunately, he usually doesn't get the same run support.

I don't think Desmith has faced 50 shots though.


And Desmith is just a AHLer. Who cares about him.

 

[KIRK]

Dumo just bailed out Letang.

Maybe his first DUMB play all year.

 

[JTG]

He's much more solid. Not even a question. Did you miss the 2017 playoffs? Ruh was solid when we needed him. Oleksiak could never do that in the playoffs because he is just too hockey dumb.

And stop with this potential thing. He's 25? He is what he is. A #7 Dman who can't play Defense. He's waiver fodder.

You're wrong.

And he is 25. He has progressed since he has been here. We are 6 games into the season and he has 3 goals. He's played really solid defense. Ruhwedel is sitting for a reason and it's because he sucks. I don't have to tell you you're wrong...the coaching staff already is.

Not just that, the guy regularly takes a bad path retrieving the puck and then gets his slow ass beat.

 

[Bingo71]

Playing for OT so McDavid can eat their lunch.

 

[ColePens]

If we get to 3 on 3... McDavid will end this.

DO NOT GO WITH SID FIRST. Go with Geno

 

[PensandCaps]

brassard is so bad

Certainly not the tough player we faced in Ottawa in a 7 game series.. He's so soft. But it is very very early. He's a good player.

 

[KIRK]

If we get to 3 on 3... McDavid will end this.

DO NOT GO WITH SID FIRST. Go with Geno

He's going with Sid.

And I can't wait for the 1 minute 3 on 3 shift and then the change attempt.

BTW, I'll take PGT . . .

 

[Nadal On Clay]

McDavid in overtime.....

 

[Turin]

Sullivan is essentially using our forwards like we only have 10. Same as last game.

There’s a lot of depth that is only depth on paper.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Phil and Geno to work their usual.OT magic?

 

[MrBurghundy]

If McDavid gets the puck he'll score.

 

[Bingo71]

Get ready for the McDavid show.

Come on Sully, put Geno and Phil out there with Maatta...

 

[Woodrow]

OT shouldn't last more than a minute given the way these teams play defense.

 

[KIRK]

Phil and Geno to work their usual.OT magic?

Will they see the ice?

Get ready for the McDavid show.

Come on Sully, put Geno and Phil out there with Maatta...

They could go with Sid. Then it won't last until a Geno-Phil shift.

 

[mpp9]

I'd like to see 87 and 71 for a 3 on 3.

 

[Turin]

If you’re going with Sid don’t put him with Guentzel.

 

[vodeni]

If we get to 3 on 3... McDavid will end this.

DO NOT GO WITH SID FIRST. Go with Geno

either one will get smoked

 

[MrBurghundy]

There’s a lot of depth that is only depth on paper.

Except when he first came here he trusted the younger players in these situations, and lived with the mistakes. Now he doesn't.

DO NOT GO WITH SID FIRST. Go with Geno

Geno and Phil have been absolutely atrocious defensively tonight.
