GDT: New Jersey Devils at Ottawa Senators - 7PM - TSN5 - Exorcist at the Canadian Tire Centre

[Sens of Anarchy]

Dj: Well we didn't get the bounces once again. So hopefully the team keeps at it and the bounces will eventually come.

Reporter: Wait a second, weren't you just fired a couple of weeks ago?

Dj: Yes, but i am still here in spirit. *winks*

I didn't mean from the coaches ... I am sure we don't hear that from Martin

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Took a step back tonight. I guess we can't expect consistency.

I actually don’t think we looked terrible. Goals 2-3-4 were like just horrific giveaways. Needless. Just players being stupid.

The first goal was like…not sure what korpisalo doing? Does he no expect the other team to shoot the puck?

 

[Melgene Eunyk]

Bring up soogaard. Trade the dead weight. Acquire a solid depth forward.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Difference has been we aren't getting the saves, we gave up far more quality chances against Toronto,

Maybe but I found we were better in the 2nd at least vs Toronto.
The giveaways and glaring errors were not there.
Toronto can generate chances

 

[h2]

That shouldn’t be a reason to lose so much in the regular season.

Why not?

I saw Norris completely give up on a 50/50 battle for the puck off the opening faceoff in OT vs Pit last Saturday which led to Pittsburgh obtaining initial possession. He completely gave up on the puck instead of driving the body and winning that battle.

That mindset will lose you games in the regular season. Not the only issue we have but it’s a notable egregious play lately that I will never forget.

 

[DueDiligence]

do think it’s a badly constructed roster. Too much skill, not enough beef. Too many floaters that won’t ever pay the price and were brought up in a country club atmosphere by an OHL coach

Actually not enough compete. Your second line says it all.

Corey Perry could really get the locker room thinking

I think they lost their composure

 

[Rodzilla]

Not a great game by Korpi but then again find it real hard to blame the Gs when every single one of them who leaves plays excellent elsewhere.

At some point maybe gotta start looking in front of them and realize the team maybe just isnt that good

 

[Race Dawg]

Garbage

That’s not about beef vs skill. That’s about tenacity. Our biggest problem has been giving up to puck so f***in much.

Goalie sucks

 

[Race Dawg]

I move that we play the rest of our games on the road in Toronto

 

[Senovision]

We have the friendliest defensemen in the NHL.
The Mr. Rogers dcore..........Won't you be my neighbour.
I like to stand beside opposing players while they score goals and watch admiringly.
They lollygag over here and they lollygag over there.....you know what that makes them? A bunch of lollygaggers!! (Bull Durham reference)

 

[milkbag]

Can't believe we signed this guy to a 5 year lmao

Sure, I’ll agree with the difference explained there. We still need beef though, especially on the back end.

 

[thinkwild]

Just off all night. When passing isnt crisp it is usually a sign. Maybe still weighed down with egg nog.

 

[Joeffice]

Maybe.

Or maybe they're depressed because they get that they are a horse crap team.
Again.

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

It's going to be a process and take time for this team to play competently defensively. It's unrealistic to expect a different looking team this quickly with Jacques.

 

[Race Dawg]

We just got our lunch served to us on hone ice by an AHL TEAM...

 

[Super Cake]

Can't believe we signed this guy to a 5 year lmao

I am starting to think the majority of goalies won't survive here.

There is only a small select few that maybe could survive the onslaught of shit defensive mistakes leading to good chances.

 

[Micklebot]

Maybe but I found we were better in the 2nd at least vs Toronto.

We certainly were not managing the puck well, we gave them the chances rather than them creating them, but in the end of the goalie let's in 6 now, you aren't winning.

It's easy to blame the goalie, we could have helped him out more, but Korpisalo was not good at all

 

[OccidentalSoothsayer]

Time for a real gm to come I and make some moves these guys suck

 

[Race Dawg]

Goalie sucks

He sucks big horse c****

He struggles with consistency and its been a problem with him for a while.
It was a team effort
