just wanted stop by to say that tye kartye is the biggest bitch in the league and that there is no reason for fowler to play another game as a duck with the way helleson has been playing

Helleson has been a pleasant surprise but I need to see more before I’m entirely convinced.

I rarely notice Colangelo but when I do it’s usually when he turns the puck over. I’d send him back to San Diego once we have some more healthy bodies.

Colangelo is being waisted on the fourth line

Yay 4 points! I'll have to watch the game tomorrow. We won. Sweetness... it is! Better late than never!

Were Vatrano-Strome-Terry and LaCombe-Zell a quartet for most of the game? All five were a +2 rating in the game.

Vets were very good, the kids not so much outside the defense kids. Terry line was excellent but was the only real threat. As a team rebuilding and not a contender, I hate these kinda wins. Still happy they won don’t get me wrong, and I will be entering Honda Center on Wednesday with them having a chance to go over .500 which will be nice.

We Need the kids getting on the scoresheet and playing well, since Mac came back he has been non existent and Zegras has had two poor games now back to back. Really missing Leo, and Cutter seems to have taken a step back after having some great games.

We need to start raising the bar for this team, and not say “Hey they looked good” I mean they really didn’t outside of the Terry line and some of the young D. That game should have never went to OT. They stopped skating in the 3rd and looked like the team that played the night before.

Thanks for posting that chart @Hockey Duckie , kinda proves my point.

LaCombe has low key been very good since being paired with Zellweger

Hmmm

If he can’t handle it and look good on the 4th line, v weaker competition. Imho he isn’t being wasted, he’s simply not ready for the big show yet. Hope mcginn comes back sooner than later

The team already knows what to do to blow games. Have to hope they have learned from it, and will elevate and find ways to now win Games. Of the last 3 games we have lost, arguably we played worse last night than any of the 3 previous games we lost. Gutting it out last night and finding a way to win when we didn’t play great, might even be more of a moral victory for the team. Maybe they will feel lucky about last night given the little luck they had v the kings/kraken/sabres at home. Maybe now they know they have to play a full 60 v vegas. And they actually will do so. Mac and gudas continue to really disappoint and in a really big way.
