lol Tampa just scored two more goals

Our defense is not doing so hot right now

I looked at the stats and am less worried because all three Tampa goals were scored against the Rinaldo-Brickley-Gadreau line.

Poor Freddie has to be asking himself who he pissed off to get stuck with two goons...

im not gonna act like i am watching the game but it is zero surprise the 4th line w/ rinaldo on it has been on the ice for all 3 goals.

Ha, I didn't realize that.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Tinordi also directly caused at least one of the goals against.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Penalties flying fast and furious. We'll see if Tolvanen will be out for the 4 on 3.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Josi scores on the 5-on-3!

 

[GoldOnGold]

Then the Preds let a 2-on-1 happen on the PP, Tampa scores a SHG

 

[Marty Party]

Preds have no idea how to play hockey tonight.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Josi had a dumb penalty.

 

[GoldOnGold]

I think we would have a couple more if Domingue hadn't made some great saves thus far.

I think it was Rinaldo with something like 1:30 TOI for those 3 goals. Just saying.

Exact stat was 2:35, which isn't ideal.

I'm at a point of irrationality. Trading Austin Watson for Nick Deslauries from Montreal sounds good.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Wow, how often has Smith fought? I can't remember it happening before.

He got some good ones in on Andreoff.

Well, 2:35 too long then I guess. Let him keep his jersey as a souvenir and kick him to the curb.

 

[Marty Party]

Don't think a single Pred played well tonight.

 

[SauceMyBiscuit]

Grimaldi has some hands and vision

 

[GoldOnGold]

Don't think a single Pred played well tonight.

I thought Grosenick seemed fine

 

[SauceMyBiscuit]

I think it was Rinaldo with something like 1:30 TOI for those 3 goals. Just saying.

I don’t think he was responsible for any of the goals though. I didn’t have any issues with his play tonight.

Greeting Preds fans, happy pre-season to you! I'm a Stars fan, but I really appreciate your young back up Saros. How has he looked in camp so far? I'd assume he's a lock and that no one is seriously pushing him for the back up spot?

On a more distant outlook, do you see him working into a starting role say within a few years?

Thanks

 

[hockey diva]

Tinordi is awful. Even as bad as the Habs are right now, they didn't want him. Please ship him to Milwaukee now.

 

[Marty Party]

Yeah, I agree on Grosenick. He did well considering the shots he faced. Otherwise the team looked out of sorts or just flat. Then they got frustrated as it wore on.

Saros is the solid back-up and yes to your starting role question.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

Sooo...AHL for Tolvanen I'm guessing?

 

[NoNecksCurse]

Sooo...AHL for Tolvanen I'm guessing?

i would think he would go back to the KHL if he doesn't make the team. thats what was said last season.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

i would think he would go back to the KHL if he doesn't make the team. thats what was said last season.

That's too bad. I think KHL would develop him fine, too, but AHL would teach him the small rink. Jokerit would be good for me in a selfish way that i'd get to watch him a lot more than in the AHL.

Wow, how often has Smith fought? I can't remember it happening before.

He got some good ones in on Andreoff.

According to Vignan that was his first.

The XM radio guys joked that some vets might start suckerpunching people to get suspended for preseason like Domi did...
