Maybe they will empty the net and the puck will go in after being struck by Nikita Kucherov.

 

[Master P]

Only difference between this game and last game is we scored 6 more goals....

That and we're winning.

 

[Dingo]

Kucherov one point in a 8 goal game lofl

i dont see how he doesnt get an assist on the Guentzel goal. He jams it right over to him through the Devil's legs.

 

[gn2007]

Glendenning, sheary, and cernak -1 in this game lol. Whipping boys

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

JJ... my guy. Make a save please

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Drunkest game since?

 

[gn2007]

Perbix with a barrel roll to block a pass/shot lol

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Cooper galloped out of there in record timing.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Crazy game, but at least we got the points

 

[Sky04]

Only difference between this game and last game is we scored 6 more goals....

And about 8.5m in cap space if needed

 

[Lightning1995]

Don’t think Cirelli took a shift the last 5 minutes or so

 

[Rschmitz]

Ugliest game I've seen this season and we won by 3

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Tommy want snowman.

 

[Rschmitz]

And about 8.5m in cap space if needed

True, but this isn't the game I'd use to argue that point lol

 

[ccman68]

Just go

Hedman-Raddysh
Moser-Perbix for a game at least and see what happens

idk why we’re trying so much shit out but Moser needs to glued to Hedman for no reason

Hedman Raddysh looked so good last year.

I don't see how you can justify reducing Mosers ice time though for the sake of trying to find chemistry, especially when Raddysh has looked like dog doodoo recently.

Bit of an ugly score but getting a win on a b2b and putting up 8 in the process...not bad.

 

[Master P]

I know its early but I wonder if their is an early locker room bug going around.

That or they just really like going out at night on these road trips.

This is what they're capable of.

So I guess we'll just have to wait and see which version of the team is here to stay.

[Hoek]

What a ridiculous game

 

[DFC]

It's gonna be a long season.

 

[Stammertime91]

Bizarre, yet fun game to watch for us.

Not really much to be proud of with regards to playing sound hockey. Offensively, it looks like Geekie is better suited in the top six but expecting much of a two way game right now is beyond his preparedness. I'd like to see him develop on that line with two hounds so they can critique and help him. Kind of makes us better though because Paul is perfectly slotted as the 3C.

Loved the Cernak hit. That seemed to have changed things behind both benches. JJ is Louis Domingue 2.0. It's gonna take +4 GF for us to remain competitive when he plays. He was beaten very easily on a few of those. Though, can't knock him too much given Vasys performance yesterday.

You kind of just enjoy the goals with this one, take the two points, and move onto the next one hoping you see a better performance.

 

[OffBy1]

Moser looks not far off from an even up trade for Serge, especially with Serge's contract. Serge is better offensively, but Moser is balanced and plays smart, where Serge made head scratching plays too often. Then you add Geekie, a 2nd rounder, a JBB special (a 7th rounder), and yes, I think it's a steal.

 

[OffBy1]

Point won some really impressive board battles tonight in the 2nd period, coming out with the puck against two bigger guys at one point.

There seems to be some universal law that JJ will give up 3+ goals every game he starts, regardless of how he's playing.

Has Cirelli ever even had a three assist game before this? Kucherov's stat line looks pedestrian in comparison.

I guess Raddysh is bucking the established pattern of young Lightning D regressing in their second season and opted for the third instead.

Watching Heddy connect on a snipe like his first is the fastest way for me to forget a crumbling performance by Vasy the previous night. Heddy getting two, Geekie getting his first point and being moved up to a scoring line has me backing away from the ledge for another night.
