GDT: 1/21/25 - 7:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Montréal

[TheDaysOf 04]

Not a bad start so far. I'd like to see more Geekie tonight, who only played 08:56 vs the Leafs. He should be fresh

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

The Habs job has aged Marty

 

[Rschmitz]

Those line combinations

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Big Save Vasy

 

[DistantThunderRep]

powerless play time

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Geekie on the 1st unit

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Powerless indeed.

That was a pathetic powerplay. Absolute garbage.

 

[Rschmitz]

idiotic PP, passing it right into Montreal sticks

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

ughh what a dumb pp

 

[These Are The Days]

The lack of right handed shooters is starting to legitimately affect us negatively

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Having Atkinson start off the power play is prime example of over thinking and mismanaging this

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Damn that a good chance by Geekie

Strangely this is one of the quieter buildings for some reason (besides all the empty seats), although they did put some effort into booing Kuch

In all fairness, I was booing Kuch too during the PP

I am not trying to beat the drum to death but we don't have ANY other right handed forwards. Chaffee isn't working and hasn't worked in a month. The only other option is Glendening

I don't think they're overthinking. They are desperate

 

[DistantThunderRep]

KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCH!@

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

KUUUUUUUUCH!

Boo'ing or Kuuch'ing?

 

[aylib]

86 said “f*** it, I’m gonna pass it to myself then” in response to Coops line mixing

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Boo'ing or Kuuch'ing?

What a high stick.

 

[FinnLightning26]

We're looking real good. Hopefully we'll get another one on the PP.

Its -17C in Montreal, so 1F right now.

That's nothing.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Another pathetic powerplay, so far.

 

[Rschmitz]

Again with the passing into Montreal sticks. Shoot into them if you need to, but the soft passes are a great way to ruin your PP

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

We've got a whole intermission to talk this over.

The power play we saw the most of last season was Hedman, Kuch, Point, Stammer, and Paul. We don't need to recreate the wheel with the loss of Stammer. Just plug Guentzel over there.

Let Kuch work from his normal spot where he has Point in the bumper, Paul down low (who had 9 ppgs last year from that area), and Hedman at the point as his 3 main options. Kuch is a better player too when he shoots and doesn't just play quarter back.

Guentzel is top 10 in goals, so all you need is for pkers to respect his side. If the puck finds his way to him, he's skilled enough to make a play or take a decent shot. Doesn't really matter that he's a lefty. Don't need to force it to him. Kuch playing back and forth to Hedman or working a triangle down low with Point and Paul should be enough. Simplify and execute. You put Raddysh and Atkinson and Chaffee out there, it doesn't matter what you draw up because they're just not able to do it.

Just say it...bring back Sheary
