Post-Game Talk: Stars win in Shootout 3-2. Chico night indeed.

[NJDevs26]

Oh so its OK to let up huge soft goals as long as you keep up DAT sv% up?

I'm not going to absolve Cory at all. On the other hand it's hard to blame him completely when we were just outclassed the last 55 minutes and Cory made several great saves.

I just don't understand why he has these brain farts, it's getting a bit Tony Romoish, play great other than the killer mistake.

 

[CKPLAYA]

Don't worry Jim. Cory's going to show everyone himself.

Pete calling for help in the presser. He knows his team isn't up to snuff.

He did everything but scrawl SOS.

Tomorrow we're gonna get spanked. Ottawa is a tough team.

After the events of this week up there, were going to get absolutely shellacked.

DeBoer: "Fortunate to get a point, but we’ll take it."

Same sh**, different season. He said that EVERY damn game up to the last month of last season. If he isn't gone by Xmas I have lost all hope in Lou and the owners.

yeah despite another softie, i dont blame this game on schneider at all (and even though he is pitiful in shootouts). prolly woulda been smart to shoot brunner (who looked confident at least) and josefson, but likely would have had the same result anyways. and i accidentally posted this in the wrong thread, but i laughed out loud at elias in beer league mode during one of his OT shifts when he almost gave up two breakaways trying ******** mickey-mouse dangles.

Ottawa's a "good skilled team"

 

[Devils Unseen Hand]

Johnny Mac giving excuses for Petey. LOL...sounds like 2010 all over again.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Pete sounded just completely defeated.

 

[MauDevils]

Ottawa's a "good skilled team"

"tough building"

 

[Emperoreddy]

"tough building"

It is going to be a super tough building. I shouldn't even had to say why.

 

[JimEIV]

Wait a second...are people seriously saying letting up THAT goal in a 1-1 game is no big deal??? Wasn't his fault?

Is this freakin bizzaro world?

 

[Devils Unseen Hand]

Ottawa's a "good skilled team"

Yes, my definition of tough.

Notice how the Devils aren't labeled that at this time.

 

[Tundra]

Pete sounded just completely defeated.

He may leave the building and never come back. Honestly, he was shaken up. He knows damn well that he has to take a knife to a gunfight nearly every night with this team.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

It's really just the guys on the ice. JL wouldn't be able to make this team any better unless he brought a time machine or fountain of youth with him. Honestly at this point I'd like to keep Deboer and revamp the roster.

But Lou had a great offseason. That's all I read on here.

 

[StvBroDan]

Just a joke COME OUT FIREING SCORE. Get back to flip shots weak wristers and too many ****ing passes not a ****ing thing.

 

[Benedict Parisechuk]

Then hopefully Lou puts him out of misery. I'm down for Kowalsky, at this point.

yeah like it was game 75 of the season and were eliminated from the playoffs

 

[Bleedred]

Tomorrow we're gonna get spanked. Ottawa is a tough team.

Ottawa is a mediocre team that is able to barely show up, but still be able to beat us.

Shots will be 41-20 and we'll lose 4-1 as per usual against them.

 

[Bologna 1]

see at times like this part of me thinks its not pete's fault........but then i think of his asinine lineup decisions and it basically negates those feelings.

 

[tailfins]

I've got no idea what people are complaining about. Dallas is one of the top teams in the league. They're hot. They played well. The Devils came away with a point. You can argue others could have gone in the shootout, but there's no way that you can say sending Cammy and Jagr was dumb.

The reality is the team is experiencing growing pains. Greene is finding his game still. Gelinas is still learning. Merrill is having occasional issues. The forward lines haven't found chemistry yet. These are all things that can and likely will improve over time.

This is one where you take the point and look for positive signs / growth. The shift in D ice time is already happening. Severson up to 25 min. Sal under 20 minutes. He was 5th in D ice time tonight. Yeah the fight + only 2 PKs had something to do with that, but still it's a huge change from just a few games ago.

It's going to take some time, and there will be pain. But, the process is underway.

It doesn't matter, they are going to come out so hot and on fire tomorrow and full of emotion. Ottawa is going to be playing like world beaters tomorrow with everything that has happened.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

I know the game you're playing but can you tell me honestly for a second what you think would have happened had Cory not given that goal up? Do you really, honestly think they would have won that game? I'm not gonna say it wasn't a big deal because it was, but I don't think the outcome of the game would have been any different.

 

[Bleedred]

**** him. Guys a tool and deserves it.

Maybe he should come up with another strategy to score more goals. His current system doesn't work and needs to be torpedoed.
