Well to be fair both of them were deflections.

Nah, not the Colorado game. He’s “closed” the five hole and now he’s sitting too low. And can’t see the pucks. He’s not even turning his head on most of them.

Yes tonight. Not in Denver. 

If we are going to go back and nit pick every game then we might as well just say our entire team is garbage.

Everyone is entitled to a bad game, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they need corrective eye surgery though lol.

Neither Andersen or Raanta are saving the goals that were scored tonight. So saying we need so and so in net is pointless.

Nit pick? Oh come now. Koch ain’t it. I’ve watched him and hope he would be. So far he ain’t it. Andersen will be fine. Mister one softy is better than 3 softies our other goalies let in. 

we’ve had one of our best efforts tonight. Dunno what to tell you man.

Kochetkov is still only 24 and effort doesn’t lead to goals, skill does.

And the effort was horrible on the second goal against. Watch the replay, Barre-Boulet was wide open in front of Kochetkov but PK forced him wide and Barre-Boulet threw a puck back up to the blue line. Instead of one of the defensemen picking up Barre-Boulet, he was left all alone in front of PK and had an easy tap in on the pass from Raddysh.

Seems like losing is getting us riled up with eachother   Let’s all just take a breath and hope rod gets this figured out  

 

The defense looks better  that is bread and butter   Get Svech back and hope we score a lot and play good D  

 

still hope in this game…

 

If it makes you mad skip a week or two I 100% guarantee you they won't continue to suck.

We weren’t trash in the 2nd, we were the better team and had 11 SOG to the bolts 6. Had some good looks at net but misfired. Stumpy nailed it, Canes have a propensity to give up late period goals. Same thing last year too.  Not sure if it’s keeping lines on the ice too long and guys are tired or we just let up for some reason. Anyway let’s score goals in the 3rd boys.

Personal opinion but I think the group read the news paper clippings.

We were off-season champs, preseason champs, and paper champs.

Once the team realizes that they still have to play the games and then starts to gel, they should be alright.

I liken it to the Lakers last year. They knew they were good but half-assed the regular season.

Possibly I think committing the most penalties in the league has something to do with it too we spend an entire PERIOD in the box every game... 

 

Good news is the refs always start to swallow the whistles after about the tenth game.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
