K-9

Quinn thinks the game at a different level and it’s just so obvious against AHL competition. Looking forward to that same impact in the NHL very soon. Safe to say the Amerks really miss Mule and Fitzgerald on their blue line. They’re a mess defensively.

I don’t know what it is, but it seems like every time I glance at the shot totals, the Amerks are getting doubled and sometimes tripled up by the opponent in every game.

Liked what Tage had to say about the Oilers game in his post game presser tonight. He said when you cheat the game like they did last night, you’re gonna get your ass handed to you. He actually used the phrase, “when you cheat the game.” That’s exactly the kind of awareness great players have. Good on Tage Thompson.

So important after last night’s fiasco. For so many reasons. Learning how to get off the mat is important to a young team especially. I give Granato credit for having them ready.

The boys did you and Dodo proud tonight, Punch.

Good point and one we need to keep perspective on. My angst isn’t so much because they lose, it’s how they look doing it and last night was just an abysmal effort all the way around. They needed that effort tonight for so many reasons, not the least of which is washing the taste of last night out of their mouths.

So, does Toker get the call on Sunday?

I was keying on him after what was perhaps his worst game last night. Fantastic response by the young man tonight. It’s always about how you respond after playing poorly and he responded like a champ. So important for him moving forward.

Thomer! Total domination in OT. Didn’t see that coming.

Good response after last night’s travesty. Well earned point against a very good, superior team.

Mitts and Asplund should NEVER be paired together. They are both turnover machines and can’t defend worth a damn.

Yeah, but we still have a chance, too.

Sometimes, the lack of talent is stunning.

Toker!

I’ve seen enough of Mitts. He sucks, plain and simple.

Complete 180 from last night.

Team was simply not ready to play tonight. As such, I’m no longer ready to watch.

Mule looking every bit the rookie that he is tonight. Miller looking like he doesn’t know how to stand up on skates anymore.

Unfortunately, the terms “Miller” and “show well” seem to be mutually exclusive.

That really underscores just how much Levi carried his team vs. the other two goalies.

Looks like the natives are getting restless in Vegas: https://www.reviewjournal.com/sports/goldenknights/fans-create-petition-to-fire-deboer-after-knights-lose-5th-straight-2546340/

Don’t underestimate Eichel’s ability to get them there.

If you say so, I certainly won’t argue.

Vegas slides the rest of the year, they select in the top 10 and our pick is deferred until 2023. Which is fine because the Eichel curse continues for them, they finish last in the league next year (a standing Eichel knows how to lead a team to), they win the lottery, we get their pick, and select the most explosive prospect since McDavid in Michkov.

Boy, Eichel sure seems to find himself on teams that can string together some losses. I know, I know; it’s just a coincidence.
