Post-Game Talk: Preds vs Winnipeg Jets :: 11/26/23 :: 7pm

[BigFatCat999]

.500 and all my underware is brown. I was fully in camp sell and the Preds were in camp FU BFC.

SUCK IT, JETS, YOU ASSHOLES!!!!
(I thought that would be filtered out, lol)

Never apologize for speaking truth, good sister.

 

[ShagDaddy]

Win!

Cardiac hockey is fun!


Outside of the top line, those lines were a carousel of players. I had no idea who was going to roll out next. They still managed to pull off the win (I hate it when they back off and play “don’t lose hockey” in the third.

Is it too early to pronounce the Tank dead on the operating table?

Whoa now don't go making this a surgical failure. The tank never got strong enough to even take to the OR...

Let's wait till the patient is out. Remember, you are never as low as you think you are, nor as high.

It’s amazing how things have changed over the past two weeks. I had pretty much given up on this season, but here we are back in the mix. Really happy for these guys. Too soon for optimism?

The patient has been upgraded from guarded to stable

Certainly plenty to be optimistic about again but we will almost certainly have many more ups and downs this season. The key now is to start winning on the road and on Tuesdays. On the positive side we're .500 and Saros has overall not been very good to this point. If he can keep playing like he did last night we should be in pretty good shape.

Enjoy the rollercoaster

Funny thing about Saros and him "keeping the team in the game" during the first is that a couple mistakes by him led to some of the scrambling play. Mostly, the obvious scrambling where the Jets got four shot after a horrible rebound but the were some smaller issues playing the puck too.

Some of it was on him, but we had way to many turnovers and soft clear attempts that didn't make it out for me to give Saros any kind of crap. Whether it was pretty or not he managed to keep it out of the net, and compared to what we've seen I'll take it.

It a nuanced conversation to be sure but it's one worth having. Just like the games where Josi might make some great plays but they may or may not over come some of his poor decisions.

I have never understood why fans always say "you can't blame the goalie" sure they hear it in player interviews all the time and coache interviews most of the time but it's a ridiculous concept. It's the single most individually important position on the ice but any analysis of goalie play is scoffed at.

The willingness to support the tank sure is dead.

Oh I have no issue blaming the goalie, and Saros has always bugged me with how many rebounds he has, especially when we could really stand to have him catch it and stop play, but I also realize that some of it is going to come down to where shots are coming from and that kind of thing too.

The one I wasn't happy with was on the first goal, he moved off the post to " anticipate the pass ". Major issue with that is there was a Pred spread on his belly across center ice, you couldn't have passed a puck across there if you wanted too. He kind of broke the first rule of playing goalie, take care of the shooter.

Til our next 4 game losing streak atleast.

Depends how Thursday night goes. If Hynes gets the win ......................

That could be brutal mentally even for those that never supported a tank
