[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

JAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[JTBF81]

Kuch with another point as well!

 

[Hoek]

Not pretty but they got it done. Not sure why Philly is such a pain in the ass for us.

 

[Master P]

Vassy shutout!!!

Haters in absolute shambles right now.

 

[JTBF81]

2 points secured! Shutout for Vasy!

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Good defensive game for the Bolts and Vasy.

 

[Rschmitz]

Another solid defensive effort

 

[Brie]

Shutout!! Good game overall but there are still some bad habits. Oh well, happy with the two points.

 

[JTBF81]

Now 2 points behind Florida with a game in hand. Tough road trip coming up, but a 2-1 or 2-0-1 result would be good.

 

[Soul Assumption]

My deep analysis of the game:
good - Vasy
bad - everything else

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

Vassy shutout!!!

Haters in absolute shambles right now.

Bro I'm in shambles watching something like 8 shots in 40 minutes. We've spent 3 months worrying about every microscopic aspect of our defense and don't concern ourselves going 12 minutes without a shot on goal

It looks like Philly fired up a hockey video game and set the sliders for stick check and puck luck to max and ignored every other stat. They are like the bugs bunny tasmanian devil made out of a whirlwind of sticks.

Wow that was a snoozer but much needed win, especially with Toronto on their way to a victory. Nice game for Vasy to get back on track, and Point breaking his point-less streak.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

If there's any hope for the Bolts in low scoring games like this in the playoffs you have McDonagh and Gourde back, and Vasy is looking like his old self. It's a great thing thing when you don't shoot yourself in the foot either. As they said, Philly is offensively challenged, but they gave up 3 to this team last week on mistakes and mishaps

 

[Renopucker]

Vassy shutout!!!

Haters in absolute shambles right now.

I may up my bet to 60.

 

[JTBF81]

It would have been nice to see another goal or two earlier, and some more shots overall, but it was good to see a concerted defensive effort from most out there. Being able to win a game 1-0 or 2-1 will be important come playoffs, when scoring is usually down a little. If they can show more ability to shut opponents down in the 3rd while up a goal, great. A little more offense would be great, though.

 

[Ducati Boy]

Want to see Point get back on track, he needs a greasy lucky goal badly, and Bjork needs to be more visible.

Moser was a little off in his first bunch of games back but he’s been back to himself in the last two.

 

[Lightning1995]

Coop basically just said we sucked, but got 2 points. Gotta pick it up

Fair assessment but Vasy was great as usual again

 

[Outl4w]

The hf took my nickname emptynep
t assassin took me days to figure out my old login details. I am sure none of you were wondering about me but in back like the empty net assassin.

 

[OffBy1]

It's great seeing Vasy look like his old self. Lilleberg honored my request for the hits but not the points. Heddy had some good chances tonight and missed them all, part of why we only had 1 goal for so long. Yanny had a good game, the Paul line was much less noticeable. This was much more entertaining than our usual one goal games as of late

 

[Stammertime91]

Suck it
