[Rschmitz]

Allowed to just mug us there at the end

Too little too late

Back on the topic of PP, how about throw Paul out there since he's the only guy who can consistently win an offensive zone faceoff? Let Point take shots from the circle.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Let’s figure out special teams.

 

[JTBF81]

When you score 4 goals and lose to a mediocre team....The defense and goaltending were very bad today. Special teams even worse. 1st 2 points thrown away this season; let's hope it doesn't become a recurring theme.

Final Lightning broadcast as Bally Sun.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Perbix and Sheary need negative ice time, my lord.

As predicted by all of HFBolts. Although while Perbix was bad, Sheary just didn’t have much impact but wasn’t horrible imo.

 

[ccman68]

i would recall crozier since he has less brain farts than perbix and lilleberg. and we don’t need a righty on the pp just throw hagel there and have them figure it out

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Need a lot of PP work. And Perbix-Raddysh needs to be broken up permanently. Nice fight though to stay in it

 

[BowB4Bolts]

WHY was Glendening on the ice w under 1 min to go, on a 6 on 5?????

He’s our best faceoff man I think.

Oh.

Ok, that's right I guess...%$#@!!!!

 

[bigdaddio]

Heddy and Vasy had subpar games IMO. Refs swallowed the whistle in the last 5 minutes. And credit to Ottowa had some nice goals. Its a road 1pm start and if that's the worst we play I'm ok with it. Still plenty of fight in the team in a losing effort. Move on to Toronto.

 

[aylib]

What was Hedman doing on that 2-1?

 

[JTBF81]

I know they have been liking the Hedman-Moser top pairing, but it seems, at least so far, that they can either have two very good defensive pairings and a mess on the 3rd pair, or they could.move Moser to ghe 3rd pairing with either Lilleberg/Perbix and have Raddysb back with Hedman. The other option for.now seems to be calling up Crozier and pairing g him with one of Lilleberg/Raddysb on the 3rd.

 

[The Gongshow]

I'd rather we get the bad game like that out of the way against Ottawa who is 0 threat to anyone in the post season, than against the Leafs on Monday, so. Hopefully they play better Monday

 

[ccman68]

rough game for raddysh. feel like he either needs to play with hedman and go full offense or have a more defensive partner. lilleberg is that in theory, but in reality he will be out of position 5 times a game going for big hits.

[DaBolts]

Looks like I picked a good honey do day. What a stinker.

 

[Master P]

The preads gdt talking about Stammer right now is giving me ptsd lol.

"Just bad luck"
"Always looking for the perfect pass" Etc....

 

[Felonious Python]

Stammer on the board

 

[Soul Assumption]

I hope I never see Raddysh on the 1st PP again and Sheary and Perbix on the ice.

We shouldn’t split up two killer d pairings just to babysit Perbix. They need to call up Crozier, he is way more steady. Send Perbix down he’s still young and hope he finds his game in the Ahl.

Plus Crozier and Lilleberg have great chemistry so it’s a win win.

 

[The Macho King]

Bad game. Third pairing is a problem and special teams - especially PP - needs some work.

Also the Sheary hate is dumb. He made some decent plays and was not a problem. Just hate for the sake of hate.

Hedman-Raddysh last year was great, I hate we've got two dmen playing their offside every game

the only thing i remember is he had a quality chance to score and he shot wide

 

[Rschmitz]

I think this is where the hate is coming from, he's not actively sabotaging the team but he's pretty invisible. Ace makes his presence felt every game and Geekie is the golden child.

He's simply the board whipping boy right now because he's making more than league minimum and he's a passenger. The only other game he's played the only noticeable thing he did was take two penalties.

 

[DFC]

We are gonna lose games. Nothing about this one looks like part of a pattern.
