  • Xenforo Cloud is doing server maintenance Thurdsay 13th at 9 AM GMT. Downtime is to be expected during the process. Server changes were implemented recently to cope with the traffic surge last week. This seems to be affecting the user login, so please anyone experiencing this, log out and clear the browser cache. We expect to have this issue solved once the maintenance is complete.
  • We are currently aware of "log in/security error" issues that are affecting some users. We apologize and ask for your patience as we try to get these issues fixed.
In the last 3 games he has been a problem. Not the only one but a big one. But when he gives up stupid soft goals (3 in his last 2 games) it kills momentum. I'd rather a goalie make 100% of the easy ones and not make one heroic save. Vasy needs to sit a game and get his head back on straight.
The defense has been beyond ass but it's our breakout and trying to stay in the offensive zone these last 2 games the avg time we been in offensive zine without winning a faceoff is like less than 10 seconds some like 5 seconds. It's setting up a recipe for disaster.
 
Momentum is a thing in hockey. We were rolling then Vasy shit the bed and momentum changed. Then he shit the bed again.

Momentum has nothing to do with whats happening right now.

When the forwards don't play defense they give up more chances
When they give up more chances the the team gives up more goals.
When the forwards don't play defense they don't create turnovers.
When they don't create turnovers they don't generate offense.
When they don't generate offense they don't score goals.

This also happens to be Cooper's entire coaching philosophy.

Defense leads to offense. When the team doesn't commit to that you get games like tonight and against Boston.

Maybe they're going for a wildcard spot instead of the division. I suppose that's one way to avoid the Florida/Toronto gauntlet.
Wildcard be, capitals or florida/toronto no matter what

lots of great takes tonight...next game needs to be played like a must win...need some intensity back
Mike Monaco mixes up a lot of his hockey players so I was not shocked hearing the mistakes.
 
Glad to see they’re getting the poopy games out of their system and out of the way now to be in form come playoffs (if we’re gonna make them).
 
Vasy made some great saves but I stopped watching after that second goal. Great saves mean nothing when you let in two shitty soft goals. In the other end, Kotchetkov was stopping everything so it didn't take a Nostradamus to know we werent't winning.

We've been awful since the TDL and we need to snap out of this. Can't afford to stretch this losing streak longer.

I'm getting tired of Cirelli again. Two goals in the last 20 games is abysmal for a #2 center.
 
Home ice would a nice luxury, something we haven't had the past couple runs, but we really need these wins to keep a healthy gap between us and Columbus and Ottawa who both won today.

Flyers are next. They're on a 5 game losing streak.
