GDT: 11/25/17 - 7:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Pittsburgh

[Bolt 45]

Let's put it out there - a lot of our issues on the PP has been Kucherov-based lately.

You're right. Guys can't get him the puck cleanly, or with enough time to do anything. I've yet to see a pass from Hedman that gives Kuch a legit shot at a one-timer. And it's not like Killer, Names or Stamkos are doing much with the chances Kuch is generating. Teams are also selling out to shut Kuch down.

Not to mention, Kuch isn't being paid 8.5 mil a year to score on the PP, or to lead the way with the "C" on his jersey. Blaming him is pretty nearsighted.

Oh are we back to ragging on Stamkos again? Just need to know what the plan is - not saying he's been perfect, but Kucherov does a lot of the zone entries and we've had problems entering the zone.

We always knew that teams were going to work out how we operated during a PP. Kucherov will score a PP goal against buffalo mark my words.

Gosh - why did we take Dingman off of the intermission? So much better than Andreychuk.

Agreed. Andreychuk isn't very well spoken and often says incorrect information.

Got that Hall of Fame cred

 

[The Macho King]

It took him about ten minutes to say "wrist shot".

Don't get me started...

 

[Stormbreaker]

Good split them up Coop

 

[Hint1k]

3rd period! should be the best one.

 

[The Macho King]

I get the feeling Cooper is going to get a bench minor this period.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Well that was short lived

 

[The Macho King]

Ugh - Namestnikov not tracking the puck at all.

I think the biggest thing i've noticed is that when we have the lead and can play are game we are fine but if we are playing from behind then we can't seem to adapt well. Maybe its just me.

 

[The Macho King]

LOL what a soft call.

 

[Fabiobest]

There was another penalty on Stammer before...

 

[LightningStrikes]

Refs back at it again

 

[The Macho King]

WTF? That's an AWFUL CALL!

This video needs to go to the league definitely - two 5 on 3s on awful calls.

 

[Cmac66]

What the Hell.

I've noticed that too, at least when we're down by more than two goals, even if it happens in the 1st we still struggle to turn it around.

 

[Stammertime91]

Hahaha this league is hilarious. They couldn't suck Crosby off any harder.

 

[RDTBay4]

The fix is in.

 

[MattM92]

Bullshit call. Routine play.

 

[FinnLightning26]

Oh f*** you refs. This is a f***ing joke.
