Post-Game Talk: ....

[colchar]

Morgan Rielly boys. Until this issue is solved we’ll never win. He’s absolutely AWFUL. He’s the worst defenseman on our team, I’ve been beating that drum a bit the last couple days and you all saw that OT disaster he caused.

Since you are such a great evaluator of NHL talent, send Shanny your resume. I'm sure he'll hire you.

 

[Myopic]

I'm not going to pile on after terrible loss against a garbage team but I haven't posted in here for several weeks.

I'm still not convinced that this is a Cup contending team because they play in the weak Canadian division. They would probably still struggle against the better American based teams.

 

[Beyonder91]

Not trash but definitely not worth a huge raise like is probably being discussed. No way he's more valuable than Muzzin or Brodie when all around games are taken into consideration

You're right of course. I'm just talking in the sense that people consider him a top D in this league. He is nowhere close.

 

[GQS]

As soon as I saw Dadonov get the puck and get that breakaway I knew it was going in. Andersen is legit one of the most UNCLUTCH goalies I've ever seen.

 

[saffronleaf]

lol the takes in here are spicyyy

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Campbell will have to play the bulk of the games. Even when Andersen makes a save it looks terrible

Yeah, he's all over the crease. He gives me zero confidence. He's not an athletic goalie so I guess he's a positional goalie that's bad at positioning.

 

[TimeZone]

Just another learning experience for the kids guys.

 

[BertCorbeau]

So did Rielly just fan on that winning goal? Or did he shoot it right into someone shin pads? The net was wide open

 

[Magic Man]

They deserved a much better fate. They had a brilliant penalty kill on what was a 4 minute penalty on a kneeing attempt by Chabot where he body checks Hyman's stick, Vesey breaks his stick to end the kill and they score. Mikheyev looked great on the kill. Then in OT Marner danced the Sens and kicked it to Rielly, if Rielly pushes it to Matthews it's game over. He shoots and they go down the other way and score.

Odog touched on it. But, it's about as bad as the Blues comeback from 5-0 down to win 6-5 in the early 2000's. Not fun to lose this way. I am disappoint.

 

[Torontonian]

Now that's disgraceful lol, 6 goals on 30 shots. As Torts would say, "I'm a little tired of the 20% rule".

Its the last 5 games which makes it extremely hard Nylander is worth that contract, when hes not on he is completely invisible out there. Hard to watch sometimes. As for Vessey, the experiment should be over he's extremely vanilla and doesn't bring anything to the team. Just a waste of a roster spot at this point.

 

[Sniper99]

You shouldn't need to score 7 goals to beat Ottawa, get out of here

You should be able to hold ottawa to 1 goal. Get lost

 

[CanadasTeam]

At least we have another game tomorrow so the over the top emo reactions won't be front and centre for too long.

Next games Wed/Thur

 

[A1LeafNation]

What goalies are available? Keumper?

 

[tmlms13]

Can't wait for the Bryan Hayes, Jeff O'Neill rant at the start of Overdrive tomorrow.

 

[saffronleaf]

Marner's Magic was really undone there by Rielly's low IQ play selection. I mean with an empty net can you at least take a moment to make the correct shot selection?

And I think Matthews was open...

 

[ToMaLe]

Andersen is awful. This f***ing guy has to go.

Been saying for years, will never win anything with this guy in net. We will piss away another playoff in the first round this year. Book it.

 

[Budz22]

Galechneyuk right now

 

[colchar]

Let's give the trading for a forward talk some rest and trade for a f*****g goalie.

 

[Sypher04]

They demonstrate game after game the lack of determination that it takes to compete at the highest level. I still say a fun team to watch. On a skill level they probably are at or near the top of the league. Unfortunately, it takes more than talent. It takes heart and I'm not sure they have enough of that on this team. And then there's Freddy.

Step back from the ledge a moment. This team has been very good the overwhelming majority of this season. These 2 losses do not change that

 

[saffronleaf]

Would Hutchinson have let in 6 tonight?!

probably, lol.

 

[ANDI P IS CUTE]

VESEY IS useless, whens Jake back?

 

[Gallagbi]

This is the type of loss that can send a team spiralling. Blink and we could be in third next week.

Guess we'll see what they're made of

 

[MSZ]

Was Raycroft in net tonight?

Raycroft was way better than this. If we have 2006 Raycroft with this team, they will win at least a couple of rounds comes playoff time.

 

[Nylander88]

We all get nervous when the tide begins to turn. We're worried Freddy won't be able to weather the storm. I'm guessing the guys on the bench probably feel the same way, and it shows. Terrible performance letting any team due that to us, let alone a bottom feeder. I hope Campbell is back soon. This team looked bad tonight outside of the top line. Vesey needs to at least use his 6'3" frame if he wants a spot. We need to get players in that do more. Maybe Galchenyuk can bring secondary scoring. Maybe Sabourin can add some swagger with his rough style. I don't know. But this roll over look is brutal. Miss ya Campbell, and miss ya Simmer

 

[The Beyonder]

They should be utterly embarrassed. Keefe has been too nice of a coach, they gave up in the 3rd. Time for to start holding these guys accountable. Anyone other than that 1st line has been utter trash.
