Post-Game Talk: Too cold for hockey? no tv tonight

[Top 6 Spaling]

I have CI but it isn't working...?

So can't score so dress Clune. I love Clune and what he brings on some nights but if you're going to rant on your backup goalie for giving up soft goals, putting Clune in after you scored one goal is a tell tale sign you have no idea what you're doing behind the bench. Glad I stayed home.

WTH is Cullen doing with Hendricks and Clune? Seriously if you are going to play Clune put him with Hendricks and Gaustad. Trotz is just wasting Cullen with those 2. Just move Cullen to wing with Legwand and Smith and have 2 scoring lines and have Spaling be 3rd line center.

Stop making sense!!! Logical line combinations are strictly banned on this team.

That's the bigger issue I have had lately. Bourque isn't producing so I can handle sitting him a game, but it's like Trotz is purposely forcing the 4 lines when we actually have some individual talent that could play together.

See Maz is the Preds lucky charm. How the Sharks could miss that open net is unbelieveable. I thought only our players do that.

I'm amazed. You can't score so you effectively have two lines that aren't going to get it done on the bottom 6, yeah, that makes sense. I shouldn't say I'm amazed. I should expect that from the coaching style of Trotz. His decision making is a head scratcher for sure. I just can't get myself to go to the games for a myriad of reasons, this being one of them. Oh yeah, let's sit Bourque too, a guy that Trotz had a woodrow about all last season but he's found the doghouse this year? Can him already and get someone new in here with different ideas. This is a tragedy and waste of young talent. It's funny that San Jose has the ability to develop young talent up front yet we have no clue at how to do it.

Goal by Leggy

 

[Dave is a killer]

I'm expecting a Legwand extension tomorrow

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Leggy finally scored a goal it has been almost a month.

 

[Predsfan78]

Ekholm with a delay of game penalty again.

 

[INDhockeyfan]

We get a lead and then have a delay of game penalty. Good news is we've scored 1st and our odds of winning or getting a point has improved

 

[Predsfan78]

Pavelski tips it in. Ugh...Note to Preds: don't take stupid penalties.

 

[jwhouk]

Ekholm redeems himself.

 

[Dave is a killer]

Angry Swede makes it 2-1

 

[Predsfan78]

Ekholm redeems himself!

Edit: Ha-ha, jwhouk, great minds think alike

 

[INDhockeyfan]

And the sharks score on the PP. Ekholm needs to stop with the delay of game penalties. I edit that as got a score.

I think that "penalty" needs to be changed to an "icing" type of call, jmho though

 

[INDhockeyfan]

1st NHL goal for Ekholm good for him.

 

[jwhouk]

NHL Goal #1.

 

[Predsfan78]

NHL Goal #1.

Goal, 3-1, I think..Josi scores indeed! Sharks thought it was goalie interference.

 

[Dave is a killer]

Goal, 3-1, I think..

Yes, 3-1 Pre-Dat-ors

 

[Phototropic]

Man terrible call there in the Preds' favor.

 

[klt2001]

Well the Shark's player pushed our player into the goalie and also tripped him. So that's probably why they gave it to us. If their player didn't do that, then I doubt our player would have landed on their goalie like that.

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Josi with a goal. Should have been goaltender interference but we'll take it.
