That’s pretty damn impeccable technique.

This one is gonna be a doozy down Pesce and TDA. Gotta really try to stay out of the box tonight with McDavid & Driscol No lineup changes except Bear over Lajoie. Let’s go get the W.

That would make sense. I was thinking it might have been Cancer since he had retired recently too. RIP DT.

I don’t even understand what Freddie is doing there. It’s like his brain just seized up after he was out of position.

The best part is those are goals we let through during our slump. But our defensive play is back to 1st 10 game form making saves like that when our goalie is out of position. We really need to get back to the US though and get Pesce & TDA in the game so Slavin can stop doing 30 minute games. I know Slavin is a beast but this ice time is gonna wear on him.

Holy poo. That was amazing. I mean we put on a hockey clinic during overtime after their power play. But that goal trickery from an absolutely winded Aho was beautiful.

Missed OT last night, just catching up on it. Andersen was insanely good.

Ya. Enough trying to Hybrid Chinn. Or roles in general.

Oof. 2.4? When we sit in second in the south. That’s just, ouch.

Honestly. I can’t think of a single standout at pro bowl nomination levels, outside of Reddick right now. Chinn has been solid but perhaps not pro bowl level this year. This isn’t a knock on our talent. Just not pro bowl nomination worth candidates.

Also on the Jarvis thing I’d really love to see him barrel on the net when he gets the puck close to their blue line more. He was drawing penalties when he was on the Aho line and before. His speed will guarantee a penalty every time. He was really too methodical the last few breakaways he’s had instead of just flying to the net. He’s young. He can take the hits. ((Sorry for the self quote, edit timer ran out))

Shhhh. Don’t say that. We just never seem to find the net vs. top goalies…. Unless we get one early. Then we just kill whoever’s in net. That said I’m feeling a big night for Jarvis. He’s been slack since we took him off the Aho line forecheck-wise but it’s only a matter of time.

Also, is “a lot of people are gonna get cut along the way” in the present/future-tense a foreshadowing by Cam? Or was it just his lingo using “gonna”.

No the perfect response would have been if he pulled up the, Clip on his phone and played that. But it was pretty damn close.

Robby has completely given up on Rhule and that’s saying something.

For sure. I’m doing the one game at a time thing right now. If that little what was hopefully a “hiccup” for us these past few weeks starts to mend itself I’ll be real happy. Tonight if we can show their defense up I’ll be real happy. Edmonton worries me because we are missing both TDA and Pesce. McDavid is guaranteed 2 goals so we have to really put an offensive clinic on. Vancouver we’ll see. Minnesota, we better have fugging Pesce back, they are as legit as they were last season and a serious cup contender. Just took them a minute to get their engine started. Probably our toughest game on paper since Florida. If we can win tonight I’ll hold out hope we can power through and get 7-8~ points out of this trip and get some ground back on the Rangers. Also we still need Cole/Smith on the roster for “Broad Street” games, but if Chatfield can keep improving his game, his speed is gonna be necessary vs. some teams. We’ll see.

Bang fugging on. Haven’t been a huge PFT fan in the past few seasons but they hit this one dead on.

“It’s a god father thing”

Really wish TDA and Pesce didn’t have to wait longer for Canada, 14 instead of 10 days. Could really use them these three games but glad they will most likely be there in Minnesota.

Also Bear is sick again. Supposedly, I’m assuming he probably got the other thing going around cause his immune was weakened from COVID.

I’m really liking Nino with Aho and TT. I know Svech kinda suffers but it just works this season and last keeping Nino up.

No, I think he was just lamenting his luck at when he was picked. It does seem for sure he was saying BC is/will be way better than a third though. Aka, calling Rhule out for being an idiot, nicely.

Fug. Bear not feeling well…. Again.

I feel like he bowed out of defensive scouting directly because of Rhule as the major contributing factor.
