Yotes tightened up at the start of the third like they just needed a tie to get a playoff spot. Who freaking cares if you win or lose, just keep running and gunning. Predictably, they lose.
GDT: Game 75: Puppies @ Kittens - 4:00 PM - FS-A PLUS
- Thread starter Ebb
- Start date
Coyotes with 3 shots in the period and have allowed 37 in the last 2.
They started getting run out the building after that 4 on 4.
This missing Hjalmarsson/ Demers situation is gonna drown out a lot of the positives in the last 7 games. And whatever the heck is up with Raanta.
Unless Tampa decides to take a nap on Monday (which is possible) you can pretty much throw that game out the window.

Hats off to the Panthers for the 3rd period. I hope they make it to the playoffs.

That was pretty damn embarrassing. Panthers earned that win but everyone was atrocious in the third.

I'm not even sure if the Coyotes went into their shell, I think Florida were just that good. They completely dominated us in every single way in the third. They played like a desperate team fighting to the death for a playoff spot.

That was the worst third period I've seen in a while. The Mutts looked completely unmotivated, and Kuemper looked totally lost in the crease. This looked like a tank team.

Not only did we lose, this was the first game in memory that gave me 2016-17 flashbacks. No push at all. Just dump it at the redline and try to hang on :/

With 47 shots against letting in 3 goals don't indicate a bad goalie.

Hjalmarsson is hopefully back at some point. This probably shows just how much he is needed.
He was...there? A few chances off the rush but his line took two penalties and was just heavily sheltered in general.
Not much in the way of sustained pressure. I'd say he looked better than his prior call ups still but that's a low bar.
Same for the Domi/Dvorak/Fischer/Perlini situation.
Tocchet leaned heavily on the sticky line and the top line in the third. Probably too heavily. But the other lines weren't giving him much reason to hope they'd be able to keep the puck away from the Panthers. Not that the top line did much better in the third. 3 shots, everyone was bad. They only had ~8 attempts even in the third total.
EDIT: Oh and one more thing on Strome, they should have left Fischer on that line. Besides being a weird combo in general, Perlini - Strome - Archibald is a butter soft trio.

Yup. I really enjoyed this game. Florida is a damn good fast team and we gave them all they could handle. Strome played a real good game and could have easily had a point or two if Perlini could have put one home. I have been one of the most critical voices regarding Cousins, but you have to give the kid credit, as he has put together a very good year.
I would give Florida credit more than blame the Yotes. Florida is a very good fast talented team and you could see them coming hard as the game went on.
I agree. Murphy did a good job. Nice pick up.
Time to give the other team some credit. I really enjoyed this game and liked the way RT kept on rolling his lines. Although we lost, I thought we played pretty good.
I think they took us lightly at first, looking at our record. They started playing harder in the second period and took over the third. We hung in there, but they are much better.

Epic collapse. Wheels came right off the wagon. Looked like October out there in the 3rd. Yikes.
*shrug*, with Schenn KConn, and an NHL debutant on D, and the backup goalie...not great, but not worth losing sleep over....but... Would now be a good time to point out that of the 5 wins in the 5-5 last 10, 3 of them were over teams 29 and 31?
(Heh. That rather sounded like xx. What happened to that guy, anyway?)
