GDT: @ Winnipeg Jets

[Vegas07]

Good thing Fleury isn’t in net for this.

 

[Vegas07]

Man Eichel was in a disturbing amount of pain there.

 

[Boris Zubov]

That was a great shot by DeBrincat

 

[Boris Zubov]

This game is bonkers.

 

[Vegas07]

Too bad I didn’t buy a ticket for this game.

 

[Boris Zubov]

That dude in the ticket thread still had 8 left as of this morning. You probably could've offered him $50 for a pair & he would've taken it.

ESPN just had an interesting stat up. Vegas is 2nd in the league in odd man rushes per game. So contrary to popular belief Deboer's system does not prevent them from getting scoring chances in transition.

The transition game is fine...more than fine obviously. The issue is more about what he's instilling in them when they have sustained possession in the offensive zone.

Their problem has been finish all season.

It isn't surprising when the players who put the puck in the net more often have been injured so often. Or, they've been coming back from an injury and are out of the lineup again within a dozen games.

So they're either out or trying to find their feet on the ice before leaving the lineup again.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Marchy has had a disaster of a game.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Who's your Daddy!

 

[Vegas07]

That’s how you respond to a team trying to trade you.

Which is what I've been trying to preach all year. They are getting chances. They just haven't been able to finish.

Even in the o-zone it's not the system that's the problem. It's that the players we have don't go to the dirty areas enough AND they struggle to finish the grade A chances they get. You saw today what happens when you get the puck to the net with traffic.

Marchy has had a disaster of a game.

He's just way too emotional. When he starts getting frustrated his game just craters. Bad passes, inaccurate shots, stupid penalties.

 

[CupInSIX]

I have a different feeling about the team now when they fall behind. I’m not as pessimistic.

Okay now I’m pessimistic. VERY pessimistic.

Dadonov now on pace for 22 goals, 41 points over 82 games. Pretty good analytics also. He seems great to have in the locker room and can play either wing.

5 million might be too much but at 3 or 3.5 he would be a valuable asset to a lot of teams.

We not doing seperate game threads anymore?

Me like the line of Eichel, Stephenson and Dadanov a LOT.

Well maybe when we get evening games to give me time to remember

On the other hand. I see we created our own golden misfit in Dadanov

DeBoer's system is great. I like it a lot.

I believe his personality is the problem. Sometimes his decision making is odd...to put it mildly but he seems to be very narrow minded, unable to adjust or change everything. He also doesn't communicate well with the media and always seems to be in defensive mode. I hope his communication with the players is better and for as long as it is, he's a great coach to have. Once it gets to the stage of what it was in SJ, he's a problem though. DeBoer is great about getting a team to learn a highly effective system quickly but his soft skills have yet to impress me.
