GDT: Warding off the Demons, or Petering Out (Flames @ Sabres 5:00 MT SNET-W)

[Oil Dood]

I could be wrong, but it feels like the last few games the pp has resulted in more goals for the other teams than for us

Get Lucic off of your PP, last year was so frustrating watching him try to play with skill guys.

PP2 *would* be better with some skill guys.

 

[Deen]

I like how Stone just hurts everybody back there. It's actually comical. Imagine he could aim it like Weber.

He's been fine on the PP as a screener and passer. PP2 is missing Czarnik and Bennett which is what's really killing that unit.

What's killing the PP is PP1 though.

Two passes to stationary Monahan in the slot intercepted that shift

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Rieder having better chances than Johnny. Who would have thought.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Although most of it was spent in the D zone that was a solid shift by the 4th line / 3rd pair

Handle the f***ing pass ffs. Has had 3-4 chances in the slot and hasn’t been able to get anything off

Right? They might as well stick Lucic in the middle, he's a bigger pylon. Monahan is bringing nothing.

 

[Mobiandi]

That defensive play with the stick on Rieder looked pretty sketchy

 

[Dack]

Hanafin caused that penalty with that terrible clearing attempt.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Hanafin caused that penalty with that terrible clearing attempt. He took it too lol.

Too much stationary passing. Guys need to skate the puck into space.

 

[super6646]

Yikes yikes yikes.

Well, one period of a coaching bump. Team back to looking terrible.

 

[Deen]

Stupid sexy Buffalo powerplay.

 

[DFF]

Everybody in the building know they are trying to feed Monahan. You can replace him with a Pylon and it's just as good

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

2nd periods not our forte lmao

 

[Mobiandi]

Eichel can be a top 3 center in the league

 

[Bounces R Way]

What a terrible period. Slow and stupid.

 

[Boomstick]

Yeah, not liking our chances if we continue to play like this. I don't understand why our shot count is always so low. Get some damn shots on goal. That's how goals are scored.

 

[JPeeper]

Disagree, I find him massively overrated. Great center no doubt, but top 3?

There's no way I take him over Sasha, McDavid, MacKinnon, even Matthews.

Bombs from the point and let Tkachuk/Johnny sort it out in the scrums around the net. Release the Stone Boomers!

Someone needs to tell Johnny to shoot. They told him that last year and he started scoring consistently. Pass first option isn't working for him.

Johnny plays like he is on Broadway putting on a show. I'm surprised he hasn't incorporated a triple salchow out there.

 

[JPeeper]

Good job Stone, cover literally no one.

 

[super6646]

Kylington-stone a nightmare.
