Post-Game Talk: MUFASA WITH THE W, 4-1 vs MIN

[dj4aces]

I don't really feel that most of the shots were all that dangerous. Minnesota really didn't play well in my opinion, and this was one of those games were the shot totals didn't tell the story of the game.

They weren't, no. But most of NJ's shot attempts weren't either, but we played extremely well defensively, and he only faced a small handful as a result. We've seen non-dangerous shots go in, after all.

wow this wings team is fun to watch .. already called the playoffs if they won the bruins game! let’s keep it rolling

Lyon has not allowed a soft goal yet, whereas Husso averages over one softie per game. Ride the hot hand Fester.

Lyon didn't stand on his head, it wasn't many quality chances, but he didn't allow any soft or semi soft goals and facing 30+ shots is 3 times as many as Brodeur used to face.

As many goals as this team score, they don't need the goalie to stand on his head. A goalie that doesn't allow softies will get the team into the playoffs.

 

[Filppula]

Honestly these 3 could be in any order and Larkin belongs in there too.

1. Ghost
2. Lyon
3. Perron

Spacegoat: Ras. (hopefully if we keep bagging on him he'll get goin)

What? Ras in periods 2&3 was the Ras of last season. Let’s hope that fuels him.

Only goal he let in was that pinball goal. He would have had to be out of position to make that save.

Ghost
Lyon
Perron

Fairly obvious choices today IMO, the order can be argued. Ghost has 18 points in 19 games for us now.

Overall this roster still has a ways to go. But you're absolutely right, and being able to say something like this is testament to how much the offense has improved this year.

Debrincat-Larkin-Raymond
Fabbri-Compher-Sprong
Fischer-Veleno-Berggren
Copp-****-Rasumussen

Why would you want to go back to the all eggs in one basket solution? That 3rd line ain't scoring any goals, Fischer belongs in the 4th line and Berggren ain't NHL caliber unfortunately.

I like the Veleno-Larkin-Ray line, Veleno brings a nice edge to it. I don't really want to break it but since Fabbri is healthy now, i would like to see what he can do in the 1st. Ras-Comp-Cat line is good idea by the coaching staff, a nice try to wake up Ras. Hasn't happened yet but it's only been 2 games.

Fabbri - Larkin - Ray
Ras - Comp - Cat
Perron - Veleno - Sprong
Kostin - Copp - Fischer

This way there's more scoring threats in the 3rd and 4th is the shutdown line, Copp doesn't contribute much offensively but he is fine defensively. If Wings go with 7 D, bench Fischer or Kostin.

Scapegoat: It's a rotation of Petry, Ras (WTF happened to him this off season) and a guest star.

Feels good, baby

3. Perron

SC: Rasmussen, still waiting for him to make an impact. It’s getting late.

I think it's time to retire that Pikachu pic, bud.

That meme would be in middle school right now.

Raymond has also played much better lately. The assist to Perron was a beauty. Chiarot has been very solid. Holl is +8 best on the team, but man how the stats can be deceiving. Some shifts he is brutal, the worst player on the ice by far.
Rasmussen has been better lately. I like his game.

What? Ras in periods 2&3 was the Ras of last season. Let’s hope that fuels him.

I saw the same in the 2nd and 3rd as you, I didn't think he was quite at last year Ras level but he looked solid imo.

The only positive increase I've seen in Ras's offensive game is he's ripping a shot from the center slot that's been pretty dangerous looking. IIRC one of his 2 goals was like that and he's ripped it another 4-5 times throughout the year that gave the goalie trouble.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

What? Ras in periods 2&3 was the Ras of last season. Let’s hope that fuels him.

I didn't see that. He had one ok shift I saw but mostly seemed like Regressed Ras™ of this season. Soft on the puck, falls down easily.

What is he kicking?

What is he kicking?

Rolled up t-shirt, no? That's what the 3 stars usually yeet into the crowd.

Thought so, wasn't sure though.

Well deserved. Will be interesting to see if Lalonde uses him against the Rangers or the Blackhawks this week.

I'd put Larkin instead of Perron. Dylan is a warrior.

 

[14ari13]

We have played 12 home and 8 road games

Husso has allowed one soft/semi soft goal almost every game
