GDT: 3/1/25 - 12:30PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Washington

[Soul Assumption]

Longest winning streak since the start of the pandemic.

Do you remember those alarmists after one bad month? Glad I always believed in the team

Hagel is stealing all of Kuch’s empty netters. Locker room rift incoming?

For some reason, Kuch always has a shift just before the opponent pulls the goalie.

 

[bigdaddio]

Haven't watched the Caps much this season but I see they are copying the Panthers style of just commit interference so much they can't call it.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

paylay'd over on Kuch(2.5) over on Heddie(1.5) and over on OVI(3.5)

I had Strome o/1.5, Kuch o/2.5, and Palmieri o/1.5.

 

[Felonious Python]

I think this is the game where Ovi truly passed the baton to Mitchell Chaffee.

 

[JoVel]

To be fair I'm not sure where that is. Hope all is well

All is well, I'm just bored to death more often than not. I will probably be moving this year thankfully.

Where to? Canada right?

 

[Felonious Python]

Somebody attend to the breadmaker that keeps beeping in Coop's media availability.

 

[JoVel]

Where to? Canada right?

Just a bit further south, where I can actually run into other people.

Where you going? Will you be able to watch games at a reasonable time?

 

[ccman68]

Someone needs to figure out our win% when playing 11/7. Feels like we always play our best hockey like this

 

[JoVel]

Nah, I'm staying in Finland, but as I said above, to more populous areas. I have a job that I enjoy and that pays me well, but in my mind there's zero doubt of this company going bankrupt in the next few years and I don't feel like being a part of that sinking ship.

 

[bigdaddio]

At this point Perbix playing a few minutes a game is better than Sheary or Atkinson. If Geeze finds his legs in the AHL that might change things.

Feels like one of our forwards always gets injured when we do too *knocks on wood

Nicky P had a rough game for sure

 

[bov]

Missed this game but wow, team seems to be in playoff mode. If they can shut it down like that...look out. Let's go Vasy.

 

[DFC]

Ok, how are we gonna discount this one? Because we all know we suck. So let's figure out the arguments to support that obvious truth.

Cooper should be fired what a bum

 

[Rschmitz]

We only bullied the best team in the east, only won by two goals. What are we doing to do against real competition?

 

[Stammertime91]

We beat a fake looking Holtby but couldn't beat the real Holtby in 2018 when it mattered

 

[Lightning1995]

Awesome performance today

 

[Hoek]

Ok, how are we gonna discount this one? Because we all know we suck. So let's figure out the arguments to support that obvious truth.

We only won because Cooper got lucky challenging the first goal against. It wasn't even really a high stick because... reasons. Everyone knows we'll get swept in the playoffs when none of the calls go our way because this team isn't tough enough to intimidate the refs.

 

[Sky04]

Ok, how are we gonna discount this one? Because we all know we suck. So let's figure out the arguments to support that obvious truth.

Washington was on a 2 game losing streak before this game, you know who else is on a 2 game losing streak? Buffalo, so this win is equivalent to beating Buffalo, nothing to brag about this still doesn't prove anything.

8-0 but we're more like .500 over that stretch cause none of those teams were good.

 

[StammerHammer]

8-0 but we're more like .500 over that stretch cause none of those teams were good.

So us beating them proves just how bad those teams are because they got beat by a team as bad as the Lightning.

 

[DFC]

Next level. So you're saying we can never be good, because any team we beat was thus beaten by us, which means they couldn't have been that good.

Sounds about right. Wow talk about a catch 22. Circling the drain.
