Post-Game Talk: Red hot Cats use a Vatrano hatty (with help from Bob and Lehner) to edge Hawks, win 6th straight!

[sinDer]

Congrats on the win.

Bob showing signs of getting it together the last few games?

If that happens, the sky's the limit with this team.

I missed tonight's game. But last night, he looked shaky to me.

Even when he's having good games, it's like every save he makes looks difficult. He's not playing with confidence and he looks fragile out there.

It’s collectively 6 teams fighting for 4 spots in the eastern conference.

NYI, CAR, CBJ, PHL, FLA and TOR.
I think we’re gonna make it.

Being 4 pts ahead of Toronto right now is huge.

And we're looking pretty good in the RW column. That could make the difference in the end

 

[ProjectPanthers]

+20 goal differential. Has to be the first time in franchise history.

The year we won the Atlantic we finished with a +36 in goal differential so still a bit of a ways off but I very obtainable.

 

[Flooven]

Is Randy ok? He's slurring his words and kinda messing up his words. Not normal for him imo

he's f***ed up

2nd game after the break against Toronto is gonna be huge

He was pregaming with Potvin?

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Based on Randy seeming to have classic sleep deprivation symptoms and the awful camera work, I wonder if the FS-F crew missed a flight or something last night and wasn't able to get any rest.

I see.

Well here's hoping.

We all know how great he can be when he's in the groove.

Any way we can switch bye weeks? Cause f***.

 

[Dread Clawz]

We're 6th in the Eastern Conference, 8th in the NHL!

Vatrano 1st star
Bob 2nd
Ek 3rd

But so many guys played well. What a fun ride. The boys are all just flying right now. Sucks we gotta break....figures.

 

[Dread Clawz]

wonder if Dale will make some trades before 2/24...we might need some shutdown D for a playoff push and subsequent playoff series

We're definitely gonna make some trades. I think he will wait until right before the deadline though. The chemistry is great all throughout the lineup so no need to mess with that right now. He'll assess what we need as we near the deadline imo.

I agree, ideally you want the 3rd Atlantic seed but really I would be shocked if 2 of CBJ, Phi and NYI keep it up.

 

[letsgrowcactus]

So, which cheap "spare part" players we could grab from the Bruins this year?

Really happy that we got the win. Still a lot of season left but we're in good position heading into the break. Great job team

 

[Gentle Man]

Dale be like

"Who's coming with? Except you in the coat."

 

[Boothinator]

It really comes at the worst point of time...

Welp, time to calm down and technically go for another streak.

We were able to go with Bob in all 3 games which was good for us. Hoping Judge and Weegar will help the 20 day break.

But what really is sucks is playing against the Habs in the first game..By the time we play against them they will already have their 3rd or 4th game after the ASG. This usually doesn't end well

 

[Fern111]

Yeah but the Habs suck ass so...

 

[Dread Clawz]

Yeah but the Habs suck ass so...

Can't underestimate them. They work very hard and are good at beating good teams. They seem to play up to their competition.

 

[austropanther]

Last year we finished 6-4 in the 10 games after the bye week, with two b2bs - both were splits. With the current roster, I would not be worried that we should be worse than last year.

That's why they lost 3 times to the Wings

I agree plus we are outstanding this year. 7-2-1 in second of b2b's.

Exactly they play up to good teams and down to the bad ones. Like we used to but on steroids.

 

[Boothinator]

Sure it sucks Bob is sometimes giving up softies or way too many goals (D isn't doing him any favors though.

But you can underestimate he is making key saves when they are needed. There is a reason we have not blown many leads in the 3rd period

 

[Boothinator]

Agreed. I am glad we are finally beating those bad teams. Even if it is just finding a way to win even without our best
