GDT: 3/22/2025 - 5:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Utah

[JTBF81]

Lol, Halverson shouldn't be starting again.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Hahaha Utah answers right away again. Unreal.

 

[RDTBay4]

This is pathetic.

 

[Brie]

Ok, what the...what was that?

 

[Zwui21]

Can we please not give up a goal just after scoring one

 

[Todd1a]

This guy stinks 4th let in

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Are you f***ing shitting me.....

 

[Hoek]

Yeah that's a bad one

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Halverson...i swear man....you aren't doing yourself any favours.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Perbix or Guentzel?!?

It’s Guentzel’s goal for now according to NHL.com

 

[Todd1a]

Ok, what the...what was that?

With the cap going up next season can we please buy a back up goalie JBB ?

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Perbix was first in line for the fist bumps but Guientzel gets credit for the goal. Gourde picks up another assist

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

There's a reason why someone who's 28 (turns 29 in a week) had never started an NHL game before.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

This guy just needs to stay in the AHL at this point holy hell that was bad.

 

[T REX]

2 cooper specials?

 

[Master P]

They're crawling out from their rocks now I see.

 

[JTBF81]

With the cap going up next season can we please buy a back up goalie JBB ?

They will likely spend a little more on one, but likely not a lot.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

We have a backup goalie. This is the backup backup goalie.

 

[Hoek]

We have a backup goalie. This is the backup backup goalie.

You don't understand, our 3rd string goalie needs to be a world beater like every other NHL teams.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Fwiw, Isaac Howard and Michigan State play in the Big Ten championship game right after this game ends. Game is on btn at 7:30

 

[JTBF81]

It's unfortunate because the offense will likely get at least 4 tonight, which usually means 2 points. Tonight unfortunately, 4 goals scored likely gets them 0 points.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Thought we looked better this period than in the 1st.

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

It’s Guentzel’s goal for now according to NHL.com

I thought Perbix had it.

 

[DistantThunderRep]

They've had since 2012 to draft someone to become a competent backup. They haven't. Plenty of guys during that time in every draft who've become/are becoming solid NHL goalies

you mean since they drafted possibly the top 5 goalie of the modern generation of hockey? They went from Bishop who had Vasy backing him up, to Vasy starting. A 23 year starting goalie who just dominated. You support him with veteran presence. Now, we have drafted Ingram and Martin off the top of my head as drafted goalies, maybe Martin was a FA signing, but them developing or playing in the NHL didn't fit our timeline of pushing for cups. Having Vasy who was playing 60+ a year and coming out with 30+ wins a year, the team decided to spend more money on Defense and Forwards than backup goaltending. It just was lower down the line for drafting since Vasy was so young and stable.

Too bad Johansson is dealing with an issue, really could use him right now. Vassy wins this game. I woulda started him today and taken my chances in Vegas.
