LGR4GM Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 garbage. I can't wait till price falters because Montreal is trash Quote
Trettioåtta Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 I guess us going 0-3 in the shootout is irrelevant. Lehner lost us this game... Anyway that was mostly a very enjoyable game and I thought we mostly played very well Quote
TheAud Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Lehner still sucks on shootouts...but 0 for 3 ain't getting it done either Quote
Beer Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Night folks, hockey's back! We'll get em next time. Quote
Weave Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Holy cow did Lehner look bad there. I wonder what the voices in his head tell him as he's staring down the shooter at center ice? Quote
Billznut Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Blysma didn’t like to use Eichel in shootouts either. Geniuses Quote
darksabre Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Tough to lose that one. I think they'll improve though. At least we didn't come out flat like pretty much every game of the Bylsma era. Quote
SwampD Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Lehner still sucks at the shootoutThat may be true, but eventually, one of our shooters is going to have to score in the shootout. No Jack in the shootout,... I hope he isn't surprised he didn't get 11.5, cuz that's why. Quote
PromoTheRobot Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Shootouts still an albatross. Lehner is so bad in them, and we still can't score. Yay point. Quote
Huckleberry Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 FFS nhl.com had buffalo up 3-2 when I loaded, I go see and wonder who scored and I see Drouin. Quote
Billznut Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Shootouts with this team are beyond horrifying to watch Quote
Randall Flagg Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Leafs were the worst shootout team in the league last year, I believe, and it didn't really hamper them. We'll overcome it. If there was one aspect of hockey to be bad at I'd pick that one. Antipin needs to dial in that shot a little bit but otherwise he belonged. Scandella was very solid in his own zone. Reinhart's line seemed to control things at even strength. Jack makes goofy choices still, but is going to have an electric season. We play the Islanders' goaltending nightmare on Saturday, I believe. Let the goals rain down. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Like I said, October is gonna be ruff. Quote
rickshaw Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 How is Eichel not a shooter? He’s not a Sedin the last I looked. Can’t wait to see how bad Lehner looked on the winner. I wonder if the league will ever wisen up and ditch the so? Oh, I just answered my own question. Quote
3putt Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 I would like to see kane and girgs switched. I don’t see the vibe with Kane and Jack. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 We played the best gt in the league, we lost. Regroup and play better Saturday. Losing to the islanders is unacceptable. I would like to see kane and girgs switched. I don’t see the vibe with Kane and Jack.That's because Kane is not good at accepting passes. Quote
Billznut Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Like I said, October is gonna be ruff.Just as the last 4 October’s have been. It’s too much to overcome. They can’t give away points. They gave away one tonight. Quote
LGR4GM Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Meh, I'm not worried. They looked like an NHL team and that's new and different. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Eichel is dreadful at shootouts, that's why he didn't shoot Quote
Huckleberry Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 We played the best gt in the league, we lost. Regroup and play better Saturday. Losing to the islanders is unacceptable. That's because Kane is not good at accepting passes. Kane always looked better with Samson Quote
hockeyhound Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) More Beer Please. Still recovering from last season; ooohhh the flash backs. :beer: It's going to take a 7 game winning streak to help forget about last season. I can't believe we don't have anybody that can score in a shootout. :wallbash: Edited October 6, 2017 by hockeyhound Quote
Thorner Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) No silver linings in my view. We lost a home game after blowing two leads, looked slow in the third, and were useless in the shootout as usual. Teams that want to make the playoffs win when leading going into the 3rd. Especially at home. Bubble teams can't afford to be that bad in the shootout, we need those points. It's time to expect wins. Still very much hopeful for this season. Doesn't mean today was an acceptable result. Lehner has to go if he legitimately can't make a single save in the SO. Edited October 6, 2017 by Thorny Quote
SDS Posted October 6, 2017 Report Posted October 6, 2017 Not to be a homer but I thought we dominated the majority of that game. This team looks nothing like last year's team… Of course half the team is gone but just saying… Quote
