lol at laughton. nice pass though theres been a few beauties so far.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

But how would he play Vinny?????

MDZ as the only defenseman, but Vinny and MDZ back there together could be trouble.

Why not start the horrible 2nd unit
#dumbestcoachever

Much as we want to criticise Berube, the call came at the end of a shift for the first unit.

 

[Newest sens fan]

Fix that damn 2nd unit, put rinaldo on it or grossmann infront of the net just try something else!!!

 

[Domino666]

I'm ok with that Raffl

Yeah but was the first line that tired they couldn't go out there?

 

[FlyersFan61290]

Umberger can't even pk well anymore.

 

[healthyscratch]

Ya know Berube COULD put out PEB, Raffl and Laughon on the second unit.

At this point I'm willing to try VV, Zac and Blair Jones.

 

[tymed]

prettttty sure the ref was tryign to prevent us from getting the puck lol

 

[Domino666]

B.Schenn looks lost again

 

[Qyburn]

Jake is so sneaky it hurts.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Voracek has pulled the same move almost every shift now & they still can't contain him.

 

[FlyersFan61290]

B.Schenn looks lost again

He just made a pretty nice play

 

[Striiker]

Overall a good period, unlucky goal against.

 

[Garbage Goal]

Much as we want to criticise Berube, the call came at the end of a shift for the first unit.

Fair, but that 2nd unit hasn't worked stretching across to last season and guys like Lecavalier keep getting shots at it despite knowing full well that they completely kill it.

We have quality alternative choices that haven't been given a shot at all several of which have been mentioned. Bellemare, Akeson, Laughton, Raffl, etc.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

What a crappy period...

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Laughton just blew up someone then knocked down Franzen right after for good measure.

 

[Newest sens fan]

Rinaldo-Grossmann-Schultz
MDZ-Vinny
Vinny and MDZ shoot, Rinaldo fetches the puck, Grossmann and Schultz screen
2nd unit

 

[FlyersFan61290]

Voracek has pulled the same move almost every shift now & they still can't contain him.

Jake does it multiple times every game it seems. Very few teams have contained him. He just owns that area.

 

[Domino666]

Laughton is still impressing me, he's physical, fast and he busts his ass every shift

 

[orangecrush8]

Damn that's a frustrating result to that period.

Need better push back after the goal against, however. Looked like it deflated them

 

[AndHeMissedTheNet]

This team isn't playing with any energy. No fire. No motivation.

This is all on the coach.

Huh? They pretty much carried the play. Bad goal against, but an otherwise strong effort.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Macdonald and coburn still suck together leading to a goal

Why can't beebs figure this out

???

They could have scored 3 or 4 goals that period. Was about as solid as it gets
