Post-Game Talk: PTSD - Post Traumatic Smith Disorder

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Waiting for the series to end and Quick has a .940 save percentage

Yep. Quick could stay hot so Smith needs to be better.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Well, that sucked.

However, as disappointing as that finish was, I’m still confident the Boys can get the job done.

It’s Game #1. I believe in the Coaching staff and the Players ability to make the adjustments needed so they have a better start and lead the next Game rather than chasing.

It's too late for excuses now but with even goaltending that game would have turned out completely different.

You know of course shot metrics mean jack in the postseason.

[CycloneSweep]

Hey Smith! What rhymes with hero, but is not?

Dumb ass?

Matches the eye test. If you swap the goalies that game is another blowout just like every other game tonight.

 

[Del Preston]

Smith has lost his last 10 playoff games.

I can’t f***ing believe this.

This is what? Like 10 or so playoff games running where all the stats favour us and yet we lose because of some stupidity and miraculous goaltending on the other team.

Smith needs to take a long walk off a short pier.

 

[SM17]

So which goalies are available this off-season?

 

[ElysiumAB]

Four minutes into the game I thought, "Oh God, Mike Smith is our goalie."

With four minutes left in the game I thought, "Oh God, Mike Smith is our goalie."

This clown couldn't wait to leave the crease to unnecessarily play the puck the entire game, then sends a hero pass up the center of the ice with 5 minutes left. Just brain dead and selfish.

Smith
Nurse

Pathetic

The fact that you put Nurse in the same category as Smith says more about you than it does Nurse.

he was a game time decision.

Guy's a warrior.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Smith has lost his last 10 playoff games.

Because Mike Smith sucks.

 

[Black Gold Extractor]

I will never understand why goaltenders feel the need to leave their nets. It was not the only problem tonight, but despite those other problems, we were still tied until... that. The fact that this happened against Chicago as well in that series' Game 1 really ticks me off.

 

[Zguy370]

Smith is a clown, its all about him…selfish pos.

He's probably blaming the D in the dressing room right now for the goal LOL

 

[KlefDown]

seriously man, smith is a f***ing idiot

late in the third, tie game, STAY IN YOUR f***ING NET YOU STUPID f***ING TIT

The smarter and better goaltender won. This is going to go to 7

 

[T-Funk]

I hate going to Koskinen but selfish old Smith put himself ahead of the team.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Yep. Quick could stay hot so Smith needs to be better.

Quick wasnt even that good.

We just had Smith in net.

 

[syz]

Yamamoto was having a good game but Woodcroft went right back to Hyman on the PP and with the empty net.

 

[KCC]

Smith and Nurse should be f***ing embarassed after that game

And next year we get Nurse at a sickening 11 million or whatever the F it is. Ugh. If Holland had signed Nurse to a reasonable price, he could have gone out and gotten a good goalie, extended the players the team needs etc. Nope.

 

[CycloneSweep]

The fact that you put Nurse in the same category as Smith says more about you than it does Nurse.

Okay? Just because he is a warrior and a game time decision doesn’t mean he didn’t play bad

 

[McDrai]

I’ll be thinking about just PVRing the next one.

This team finds new ways to disappoint.

3rd year in a row Smith has give up a back breaking giveaway like that early in a series. The 5 hole goal before that for their 3rd was shitty too.

I'm 100% PVRing the next one of Smith is in net. Tired of the same old shit in the playoffs.

 

[Magnum23]

This ones on Smith. Quick outplayed him and got a well deserved win.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Quick wasnt even that good.

We just had Smith in net.

Pfft quick was fantastic.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Dont even have to stay in your net, just dont try and go for a stretch pass straight up the middle.

 

[redgrant]

Who will Matheson blame post-game

Some 3rd line european who didnt score 2 goals. Not the 40 year old who thought hed win a jar of prune juice if he did an outlet pass with 5 minutes left.
