GDT: Sharks vs Islanders: 7:30pm. Payback edition.

[Juxtaposer]

Every goal is on Jones, he needs to stop every shot

Lol I love the hyperbole around here. One expects a league average goaltender to make saves on unscreened shots 95% of the time. Jones is exceptionally poor at it.

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

I mean, you want Jones to make those big saves a lot more than he has been frequently doing so. But that goal isn’t on him.

 

[Sysreq]

Oh for the love of ****ing god, Jones.

That goal was 100% Burns letting that guy go. He wasn’t even moving his legs when they scored. Saw him go around and then just f***ed right off.

 

[slocal]

Its a goal and jones is in net so shark fan reasoning its on jones. It could be a 5 on 0 against jones with jones stopping the 1st 5 shots before 1 trickling in under his arm and it would still be jones fault.

That is a terrifyingly plausible thing to happen to this team.

So one player makes a mistake and suddenly Jones is faultless? That goal wasn’t 100% on anyone.

 

[Alwalys]

irritating as f***

The answer to hyperbole isn't to counter it with a gross oversimplification like you just did here.

 

[Alwalys]

when the dman steps up on the puck carrier, the forward has to be backchecking on the late man no?:

Needed to keep his arm pinned to his body there. Weak fundamenals.

Part of Burns being unpredictable, haha.

Burns didn’t lose a footrace, he straight up never even moved his legs. Even if they had body position on him, Burns could have at least made it difficult by getting on his stick. I don’t fault Jones for getting hemmed in the net on a 2 on 1 like that. Burns should have gotten back to make the play.

 

[one2gamble]

Don't think that's on Jones

It's on burns but Jones didn't play it well at all

Yeah lets just pretend that was a simple unscreened shot that Jones let sneak by. Total bs

I agree but sometimes unscreened one timers on surprisingly good passes will beat even the great goalies. There hasn’t been one goal against Jones this season that someone didn’t whine about. He hasn’t been good but he’s not gonna stop everything. Some goals aren’t on him, that was a great play that beat him

 

[McDeez]

How many times do you see Jones step out and challenge a shot? Not many. He gives up too many spots to choose from by sitting pretty in the crease. It's frustrating

If only we had a goalie coach..

 

[Mafoofoo]

That spanish language goal call randy showed us sounds so unenthusiastic.

 

[WTFetus]

I feel like Vlasic is passing around Karlsson.

 

[Fraser28]

Jones is starting.

My bad. Unable to watch this game unfortunately and NHL.com had Dell as the starter.

 

[FunkyPhin]

I feel like Vlasic is passing around Karlsson.

I noticed that too on that last rush

 

[WTFetus]

Braun is getting beat a lot this game.

 

[WTFetus]

Pretty boss by Shovels.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

That was amazing hand-eye co-ordination by Shovels to get the puck back to Donkey after missing out on his chance.

 

[Jwec]

Donskoi!!!! What a moves by Suomela also!
