[Boris Zubov]

Nice sequence from Holden there. Not something I say very often.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Have the line switches worked so far?

Sure? They didn't last long. They're back to how they started now.

 

[CupInSIX]

It doesn't appear that way anymore.

You know who was good on faceoffs?

 

[Boris Zubov]

Wow good chances there.

 

[Vegan Knight]

Stastny was nearly 55% this year. The rest of our centers aren't great whereas Miller, Horvat, and Beagle all are.

I mean, we can at least tie it up and let the wingers dig it out.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Wild Bill has lost his scoring touch. Two solid chances there.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Our 3rd line continues to victimize the Nucks 3rd pair.

 

[CupInSIX]

They keep going to Martinez on the back door and it almost works every time. Almost....

 

[The Duck Knight]

Fantastic coverage there boys. NO ONE IN FRONT OF THE NET?

 

[Boris Zubov]

WTF was that.

Hockey can be so unfair...we dominated this period.

Only ourselves to blame, how do you lose Pettersson in front of the net? That move was phenomenal to watch though.

MAF would have poke checked it away lol

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

Did somebody switch the Knights' coffee with DECAF?

 

[The Duck Knight]

WHAT IN THE FLYING f*** WAS THAT

Mcnabb and Schmidt deserve a bag skate.

 

[GKG18]

Uggggh. Flower time? Not Lehners fault, but if the D isn't playing, get him out of there.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Damn, that hurts.
Need to respond soon, or....

 

[Boris Zubov]

We decided on a new strategy...Play all 5 skaters up on the blueline in the D zone while the puck is below the hash marks.

 

[The Duck Knight]

If I weren't deathly afraid of Mcnabb and Holden together I'd suggest a Schmidt-Whitecloud pairing.

 

[Vegas07]

Uggggh. Flower time? Not Lehners fault, but if the D isn't playing, get him out of there.

This is why it was really stupid for Fleury and his agent to do what they did. It’s more awkward to start him now.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Not one of these goals is on Lehner. The dzone coverage has been abhorrent.

I will say if we lose G3 also I think it becomes Fleury's net.

 

[GKG18]

This sucks. Play it out, don't get hurt, come back strong and reset for game 3.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Between all the blocked shots & the amount we've missed the net, we could have 75 shot attempts & still lose ugly.

 

[CupInSIX]

I think we all know who's to blame...

@hangman005 is off playing hookie at the pub.

It's more awkward no matter what happens.

 

[Vegan Knight]

If I weren't deathly afraid of Mcnabb and Holden together I'd suggest a Schmidt-Whitecloud pairing.

I thought of that also, and I would try it. All of Theodore, Schmidt, Whitecloud are relatively young and Martinez isn't so old. You can ride those two pairings more if you need to.
