Taro T Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Have no good feelings for how this one'll go. Hoping @Doohickie & @Spoonman get to see a good game & a W. Will be interested to see if the defensive play from the 3rd period of the Aisles game will continue. Was busy w/ other stuff during the Anaheim game so couldn't focus on how they played in their own end that game. Hoping they bring that play back. Which is something they'll been to do to play "playoff" hockey. Quote

LGR4GM Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Sorry that sounds harsher than I meant. Ralph Krueger sucks, glad Granato was able to fix Dahlin. Quote

Mustache of God Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Thompson has 1 goal in his last 7 (and only 3 assists). Need him to rekindle that magic and start racking up points again. Quote
pastajoe Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 Looks like Anderson in goal. I thought they would have played Comrie by now. He’s going to be pretty rusty next time he plays. 1 Quote

Eleven Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 I don't see myself staying up for the third in this one, so better be 6-0 Sabs by the end of two. 2 Quote

Pretty sure the year he got nominated for Rookie of the Year he wasn’t the worst defenceman in the nhl He wasn’t just “not the worst”, either, he was actively good. He went through a development slump later on that it was obvious he’d get through Edited January 23, 2023 by Thorny Quote

Someone with as few nhl starts as he he did coming in..I think the hope was he’d improve if given a shot to play a lot. Maybe development is the wrong word: let’s use evaluation. I’m glad they aren’t using the games to evaluate Eric Comrie Quote

Maybe development is the wrong word: let’s use evaluation. I’m glad they aren’t using the games to evaluate Eric Comrie Evaluation is the right word, I think. And I'm not happy that they're not using this time to evaluate him. At least we can agree on the vocabulary? 1 1 Quote
Thorner Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 I can’t really make heads or tails of your post. Aren’t making the playoffs? We certainly have a reasonable shot. Regardless, failing that, give me 90 points. Give me 91. Give me as many as we can get cause the time to care about real results is now and it’s way more fun Just now, Eleven said: Evaluation is the right word, I think.

It could be Levi/UPL (or reversed); it could be Anderson/Comrie again if the GM doesn't fix hymself, it could be a lot of things. Evaluating Comrie is important, and this team is not making the playoffs. It just isn't. It's nice to think about; it's nicer to watch them develop and think about next season. Quote

LabattBlue Posted January 23, 2023 Report Posted January 23, 2023 This 4 game gauntlet is make or break for the teams playoff chances. - 6 or more points, the hope tank will be refilled a little bit - 4-5 points. treading water - 3 or less points, playoff chances are on life support Then they have 1 home game before the break against the Canes Quote
