Pre-Game Talk: Panthers vs the Blue Jackets

[I am not exposed]

Figured I would get a pregame thread going. Hope we can stop the skid!

At least Barkov looked very good offensively yesterday from the highlights I watched yesterday.

It would be nice to find that defensive game we had before though.

Hartnell-Dubinsky-Anderson

Tropp-Letestu-Skille

Johnson-Savard
Connauton-Wisniewski
Prout-Tyutin

McElhinney


Jackets lineup.

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Must win. The math is a lot harder to catch the WC now. So we need to capitalize on teams lower in the standings.

 

[GrumpyKelly]

Battle is the great redeemer. Bring on the Jackets and get back to the W column.

Jackets lineup.

Morin was reinjured last night, so it's questionable whether or not he makes the lineup. Atkinson's been on the Foligno-Johansen line.

On the bright side (for us), Anisimov and Murray are getting close to being back, so they might make it. We don't know for sure, tho.

We really need to find a way to stop giving up the first goal. Which defensemen will it be with the blunderous error? We have campbell, olsen, and kulikov going on a pretty good rotation right now.

I just copied the lineup from your last GDT.

It's mostly been Olsen and Ekblad. Ekblad has had a few rough games in a row.

At least ekblad has the excuse of being 18 and he more than makes up for it with his offense.

Well, before last night.

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Damn Curtis McElhinney has won 4 straight starts.

At least ekblad has the excuse of being 18 and he more than makes up for it with his offense.

Last night yes, but against the Oilers and Canucks nope. Obviously not hating on him but to not include him in messing up defensively just isn't accurate.

Well, before last night.

The play on Miller's goal was really bad.

I think it's easy to point the finger at one or two guys, but as I've learned about the makeup of this team I've come to the conclusion that it's never just one or two guys. Gallant verbally admitted that the only way we win is every guy playing well and working hard. Is that the best recipe for success? Don't ask me. I don't know. But, that's what this team is from here on out. You can sit there and say well replace Olsen, he's bad for Guddy and sit [insert latest whipping boy]. It doesn't matter what modifications we make. Even if just one guy isn't on his game, the whole team suffers.

 

[Mogo]

Was our record 13 games in a row without a win?

 

[FlaPanthers11]

The play on Miller's goal was really bad.

I'd give him less than half the blame on that one. Even so, that play alone doesn't establish last night's game as "rough".

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Looks the Thornton "should" be in, but for who?

We really need a 7th Dman to get some competition for the 6th spot. Maybe call up Petro and have him in a few games.

Let's trade!

Olson was -1 last game and was +1 during an 8-2 beatdown against Winnipeg. He's been +/- 0 since the start of our 5 game losing streak. Just wanna throw that out there.

You mean OlsEn? And probably because Gallant barely gives him ice time cuz he sucks Seriously though, he makes some junior hockey mistakes.

Yeah he's not the only one making mistakes. But he is the current scapegoat.

He makes the most glaring mistakes so he's seen. While other do make mistakes there not in the same ballpark as Olsen

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Petrovic recalled per Cats PR. Time for the Guddy-Petro Bash Bros.
