Can't happen; all I can say is it can't happen because I doubt this fanbase would survive.

We have them pinned in their zone but every pass seems to go to the back hand or bounce or get deflected. It’s maddening

Thompson has looked slowish since that shot block against Washington. The AHLers aren’t exactly helping him either. We have so many forward injuries that we can’t sustain anything between shifts. UPL has to make that save Quinn is both the most and least skilled puckhandler on this team.

The power play is where you see the loss of Zucker and Benson the most

Always need to throw daggers at Dahlin.... As for the pictures I agree, there was a pick play which effectively took Tuch off Keller Once the rub had worked and Keller was going in on Quinn, Quinn needs to step up on him with Tuch in pursuit. Not back away towards Dahlin who is positioned to cover the backdoor. Had Keller passed it to a guy who scored then Dahlin would be more at fault but Keller just drives the net. Dahlin realizes Quinn backed off and does make a last ditch effort to get to Keller but he's too late at this point. As with defensive play in general, when playing a 1v1 with trailing support you want to either slow or angle the opposing player away from the net allowing the back checker either time to catch up or cover the possible trailer. In that particular case it would be Quinn's responsibility as he was the "LHD" at that time to take on Keller; Dahlin would then need to adjust accordingly based on the potential trailers coming in. Ideally in 3v3 Quinn steps up onto Keller and sandwiches him with Tuch causing a turnover or at least no shot as it slides harmlessly to Lyon. Dahlin is trapped guarding against the trailer incoming; he can't commit to Keller unless he effectively abandons his position to puck hunt.

If this odd start continues through Thanksgiving it will effectively kill that goal line for the season. I can't recall the entire conference being over NHL .500 simultaneously 12-14 games in

I won't blame them on Eklund, they legitimately tried. Jarvis, have at em.

They really need to get healthy, Thompson looks befuddled with Greenway and Quinn and beside the Doan-McLeod-Tuch line they are all defensively terrifying. Then the 4th line is pure woof, Malenstyn being the lone NHLer playing out of position at Center.

Keller just took a stroll up to Lyon 1v3 Quinn got out of his way strangely We got the loser point again though so we keep pace with the East lol

Feels like we are the road team but we’ve got a point somehow while being down 6/7 forwards

Yes, a stick cannot be above the crossbar if batted into the net, anywhere else it can be as high as your shoulders

For sake; ***** the Dodgers, ***** the Dodgers, ***** the Dodgers, ***** the Dodgers!!!!!!!

We got 2!

I give Dahlin, Thompson and Tuch credit for their gutsy play with that ugly 3 min shift

Guess someone lit a fire under their *****
