UPL apparently has never heard of a poke check

The Kunsnetov goal told me everything.

UPL ain't it.

Will UPL save even one shot?

He did not save even 1

So, no,… then?

When you don’t have a defense and a goalie that sucks in shootouts

Or a GM that can’t find a way to fix either one

UPL might actually be worse than Lehner.

Up two with four to play and they lose. They don’t deserve the playoffs. 

They haven’t deserved it in a while

You're on a PP with a garbage call... You cannot punch someone in the head. The refs are looking for any opportunity to negate the powerplay. Tuch gave them an easy out. And he didn't need to. Irwin was taking himself out of the play trying to give an extra shove... Irwin was making the critical error and allowing a 4-on-3. Tuch was on the dark side of The Concept Of there.

[spndnchz]

Other teams and figured us out that we always go up the wall. We got to mix it up a little bit.

[Slack_in_MA]

Just...not ready. Still.

[Believer]

Late stupid penalties gave away our advantage… Thoughtless situational hockey…

Hope it was worth it to Tuch being a stupid petulant brat and costing us the game and probably our season.

What are you talking about ? They got a point. Lots of games to go. 
Holy over reaction

[sodbuster]

I feel like the fanbase has been asking for the FO to do something in goal for the last two offseasons. Probably could have been a little more aggressive there.

This team is such a ***** let down

 

why can’t we get a damn goalie. 

It should never have got to a shoot out to begin with.  Tuch and that asshat on Washington should have both went off. 
 

Even then. We blew chances to clear the puck on the PK and lost the puck.  
 

very frustrating game. That point matters

UNFAIR. One play does not cost a season. Gimme a break. TUCH is a total find and possible future C of this team.

We don't know anything though.

To be honest I didn’t see much of any there with Tuch. He brushed him.

Refs jobbed us; UPL is bloody inconsistent and stresses me out in net.

[Marvin]

What puzzles me is that the officials let almost everything go all game and then suddenly call 3 lesser penalties towards the end of the game.

Well no, that is why I wanted comrie to get more shots at this.

He is, but he decided to pop a guy on the PP RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE REFEREE.

Night Bonzo......

Irwin should have got a roughing too.  Tuch didn’t have the puck and Irwin was way out of position so he pushed him off the point.

That was a terrible call to put Washington in a huge advantage.

Worst shootout goalie I've ever watched

You must be forgetting the Lehner years

The article in the athletic about how they didn't want to hear it from fans, so they tighten it up call wise late in games.

[Gatorman0519]

How do we keep getting GMs that never prioritize Goaltending?

Rasmus Dahlin is the next C.
