[Super Cake]

Nice comeback to only go back to being down 4-2 minutes later.

I mean come the **** on.

And Phillips needs to retire.

Hah HILARIOUS.

TSN highlights have a 20 second spiel about how the goal is EKs fault. Ive literally NEVER seen the HIGHLIGHTS blame someone who wasnt even on the ice for the goal. What the hell?

 

[Gil Gunderson]

 

[Benjamin]

Effort was good and we're closer to picking 1st overall. Im happy.

Regardless of the goal, he did play pretty bad tonight despite a couple of chances in the offensive zone.

2 years for Philips, 3 years for Michalek. Good job Murray.

Veterans and try hard in practice. Thats what counts.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Why the **** is Chris Phillips still in the NHL?

 

[Baby Ryan]

The Bad:
-Every defenceman not named Cowen, Boro and Ceci
-Bounces seemed to go to LA all the time
-Refs suck

The Good:
-Saw what the team can do under Cameron in the first period. Should be obvious that the team should not be expected to uphold Cameron's philosophies in their first game against the defending champs for a full 60
-Definitely had more score chances than the Kings, would have multiple goals if not for Quick and simply being unlucky.

It's easy.

Ottawa simply isn't better than the standings indicate.​

No kidding. But once a perception catches on, it's stuck.

Agreed...but...

Doughty was DIRECTLY responsible for a goal. 100% his fault. No mention. Yet a 20 second set up of "Karlsson doesnt get it out....then the play goes on...then its frozen....then they lose a draw....and defensive assignments are dropped...and goal. Oh Karlsson" is ****ing ludicrous

 

[Alex1234]

dave reid is a REAL moron

blaming ryan and turris for the 4th goal and NO f.... mention of phillips

Murray disagrees with you.

I think it's time for Phillips to waive his NTC to be 'traded to a contender'.

time for him to GTFO

 

[Micklebot]

I just don't get forcing Phillips on the first pair.

Why is this written like a Star Wars intro.

Yea, they went a little overboard on it. They also focused on Ryan in the first intermission to. A little extra focus on the stars tonight, I believe they mentioned they were watching them closely on purpose to see how they react to the change. But yea, overboard.

 

[Benjamin]

I was liking the dmen stepping up in the neutral zone. Looked very effective.

A contender with Phillips doesn't make sense.

 

[Carrie Underwood]

I feel like everyone in Ott organization is blind to Phillips. Do they not notice how terrible he is?

 

[Burrowsaurus]

This was a great loss. Played well.

 

[Flamingo]

Doughty gave away the puck for Stone's goal, and tipped in Cowen's goal.

OTOH, normally quick-footed Karlsson being caught from behind by the Kings back-checking is a good story point.

 

[Korpse]

Doughty made the same mistakes as Karlsson tonight. Ferraro has a bone to pick with Karlsson for whatever reason. LA's second goal sure Karlsson tried to jump up and missed the puck but he was back to make a play, Ceci should have been on his guy, but Ferraro just blasts Karlsson.

 

[Engineer]

Wow Buffalo is three points behind us.

Now that is eye opening.
