GDT: Islanders v Canes - Festivus Edition

[Tryamw]

Especially when it’s really been 5 on 8

5 skaters and a goalie

 

[Wolfpuck]

Goaltending was the difference.

 

[Tryamw]

Goaltending was the difference.

And the refs... Not calling stuff.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

What is Burns even doing

 

[Wolfpuck]

9th in the East

Merry Christmas

 

[Brock Anton]

Burns is washed.

 

[Joe McGrath]

What the actual f*** Burns

 

[HisIceness]

4 goals not good enough for even overtime. Very disappointing.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

3 goals handed to them by refs when we should’ve been on the PP each time. Whatever.

 

[chaz4hockey]

Goalies matter.

 

[Svechhammer]

Kooch needs a backup so he doesn't burn out.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Man, this one is tough to swallow. They really should have won. I'm not giving up on Koch for this game but it's very obvious you can't run with him but so many games in a row. They have to figure out what they're gonna do behind him.

Home sweet home.

Pretty much agree but so many savable goals let in tonight that I can't even be as pissed about that as I'd like.

 

[Canes]

Burns needs to be sent to a farm upstate

Or maybe just not on the first pairing, what do I know though

 

[Svechhammer]

I'd still like another forward to help bring these kind of nights out more often. Us scoring 4 or 5 a night shouldn't be a rare event and we shouldn't be kicking ourselves because the goalies keep letting us down.

Speaking of which, Kooch has been good lately. We just cannot run him into the ground.

 

[VAcaniac]

At this point, id be shocked if they even try a trade with Freddie supposedly back soon.

Don Waddell is taking his picks and prospects to the afterlife.

 

[The Faulker 27]

The team/org can't control bad officiating. They can control bad goal tending.

 

[Joe McGrath]

The team/org can't control bad officiating. They can control bad goal tending.

Can they though?

 

[The Faulker 27]

Can they though?

Could they have is maybe the question.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Can they though?

Not if Aaron Dell or the corpse of Andersen is the answer

 

[Joe McGrath]

Not if Aaron Dell or the corpse of Andersen is the answer

Probably not the best way to put that, but I get what you mean.

 

[Bub]

Not if Aaron Dell or the corpse of Andersen is the answer

Friedmann's comments on SN earlier tonight were that teams with goalies "for sale" know it and are looking to extort those in need. As they should. Meaning don't expect us to do anything but hope Freddie's got a lot of bandages when he comes back.

 

[Identity404]

When we can actually score goals, our goaltenders look like beer leaguers.

When our goaltenders actually make saves, our forwards look like they belong in the beer leagues

Very frustrating to watch… sigh

Mrazek can’t be that expensive.
