Post-Game Talk: The Chia sleeps tonight

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Nurse has 16 points in his last 17 games.

Love me some Nurse, but that's something I didn't think I would ever say.

That’s insane

That’s insane

.5ppg on the season. On pace for a 41 point season which is the most we've seen from a d-man since Tom Gilbert in 08-09, or Lubo if your prorate 31 in 50 in 08-09 and 32 in 57 in 09-10.

I expect that pace to drop when Kleffy is back no?

I logged in for the first time all year just to say someone should merge-gif McDaddy's SO goal with his last SO goal where he did the same move but scored farside.. Or don't, I don't really deserve it.

Yeah, but it's encouraging to see a burgeoning two way d-man here.

Loving nurses offensive game lately. This team needs offense badly, and although his D game hasn't been as good as it was last season, he'd making a solid effort at trying to put up some points and doing a damn good job.

It really sucks that none of the other D can defend or score.

 

[McDNicks17]

I was curious to see what scoring has looked like since the beginning of December and Nurse is actually third on the team. One more point than Nuge. Pretty crazy.

Connor: 32
Leon: 26
Nurse: 16
Nuge: 15
Chiasson: 9

Pretty crazy.

He's on pace for 40 points. He's having a great year offensively.

And honestly outside of a 4 or 5 game stretch his defense hasn't been that bad.

Exactly what we need.

What parallel universe are you from?

 

[Canada Drai]

If Nurse can keep this play up and make me eat crow I will be a very full and very happy crow eater.

 

[Spawn]

What parallel universe are you from?

The objective parallel universe

The one where ideas like trading Nurse and thinking Caleb Jones could fill in for him is borderline insanity.

 

[GRadio]

Anyone have any idea why Pulju falls down so much?

Because he sucks?

 

[booyakasha]

Because he sucks?

he's too busy tongue bangin his nose, it's knocking off his equilibrium

The one where ideas like trading Nurse and thinking Caleb Jones could fill in for him is borderline an absurdity.

So aside from 4-5 games THIS YEAR, Nurse has been a positive in whatever minutes he's played?

l'll take that bet all day long. Put your post where your smilie is?

 

[KarmaPolice]

Nice to see McPoints with the win.

Fire Chia while we still have a shot at the playoffs before he does more stupid stuff.

 

[Heavy Dee]

Drake couldn't have played the 3 minutes gambardella did tonite? What a disgusting trade. Reinhart bad.

Bad trade for sure but talk about a stretch. The reinhart trade was light years worse.

 

[Hopelesslucicfan]

Anyone have any idea why Pulju falls down so much? Is he the new snowpants?

If I had to guess it has something to do with having to adjust to playing on NA ice, getting used to his man body, and being bounced around the 8-12 minute mark of games played for the first few years of his NHL career.

I may be crazy, but I have total faith there's a 50 point player in there, it's just going to take him a while to get there.

 

[Messrules11]

McDrai, Nurse and Talbot looked good tonight. Wasn’t real happy with the first 2 periods of this game though. Nuge was particularly frustrating, lots of turnovers and hot potato pucks with him. Saw him on a 2 on 2 with Russell, we all know Russell has no offence but he actually passes it to Russell. Wtf, is that? We pay him 6M and he defers to Russell of all guys..:. Good thing he scored in the shootout cuz that’s all he did tonight

 

[space321]

damn we won, chia lives for another day

 

[GodPucker]

Man I didn't even know Gambardella suited up for this game till I seen him skate off the bench. He got a whopping 2:21 of ice-time.

I'm. Surprised they let that pu*** of a player play.

When u barely have a job and your franchise player gets run, then you stand around...

Useless

 

[djdub]

One of the best PGT ive read.

10/10 would read again.

We didn't take on any abhorrent contracts in the Reinhart trade. One could argue him being chose in the expansion draft was a bonus as well.

One 2.5 million garbage contract is not nearly as bad as losing 2 first rounders IMO. Edit : Look at us arguing which Chia trade was worse. How does that man have a job?
