We've had a few stretches of sustained pressure so there's hope. Too many shots from the outside though. May need a garbage goal to get things going.

Edit: SHIT!

Got caught in the Devil's tarp.

Emotional let down from the previous game was a possibility. Move on.

If Nilsson can actually stop a few shots, the game could be different. He gave up bad goals after bad goals.

I hate that tarp. Someone cut an ass hole in it and is pretending to be a doctor

The team has been on a high of late. We were due for a loss and it's better for it to be a bad one to get us going again.

Edit: Would be good to get at least one goal to make it respectable.

Teams that flunked out on pettersson will always show up to prove their guy wasnt a blown pick. Hirshier is a talent for sure but he represents a massive failure by the devils scouting staff

I think it’s time to take Brock off the first unit PP, he’s becoming a lazy second effort, puck giveaway machine, lazy passes etc.

The Canucks were due for a stinker. Move on, but If the 2nd line (Horvat) doesn’t get going soon Blob may get his top 10 pick wish

Sutter comes back.
Recall Demko and Gaudette.
Get them all back on the roster.
Take out and waive or trade any of Goldobin, Granlund, Schaller, or MDZ.
If any GM gives a late pick for any of them, take it and laugh.
Look to move out Pouliot as soon as Hughes signs.

A few things: Nilsson needs help! Utica maybe. He drifts out of position and boom.
Jake had the wheels and I don't know why he wasn't used more in the 1st and 2nd.
Rousell needs about 3 games in the press box for that shit!!!
That is not playing tough, that is being an idiot and it's exactly that crap that will get Eli, Brock and Bo targeted!!
Dumb fuck he was this game. Doubting his role here now. The Devils were kind actually.

I guess we can't call up Demko uh?
Spose not.

Goldobin played well enough to replace Jake on bo's line. Does Travis drink at work?

Am at work still and pvrd the game. It sounds like the entire game was Nilsson’s and Goldobin’s fault.

:lol:

3 Canucks that have no place on a team headed for thhe playoffs
1) Nillson... ñot a reasonable backup
2) Goldobin... sucks defensively
3) Stecher ... cant shoot straight, poor defensively

Goldie could be replaced by Schaller on 4th line
Biega > Stecher
Trade for a decent AHl Goalie ?

3rd period looked like the team gave up after goal 3
Flu bug ? Bo still not on top of his game
Hoping to see Sutter back next game

Seriously?

I'm leading my yahoo fantasy sports league; I'm in a head-to-head with the guy who is in second place.
Elias? Zilch!
Boeser? Zilch!
Marky Mark? Doesn't even report for work. :evil:

OK, so these three guys are a huge part of why I'm in the lead.
Picked all three toward the end of the draft, but they've provided top end quality.

Markström is supposedly the worst of my three goalies (the orhers being Rinne and Lundquist), but for the past month he has actually outperformed them.

Anyway. They completely let me down tonight! :evil:
