We're right back in it. Keep fighting boys

 

[The Gongshow]

This is gonna be some 8-7 final score game

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Halverson was such a good story working his way from Orlando to Syracuse and then passing Tomkins on the depth chart. Good reward to work hard enough to get up here for a game, but this might be it for him

Feel like Tomkins looked calmer in net last year, although I may be misremembering.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Vejmelka not doing much better than Halverson.

We're lucky Ingram's not here for Utah. Hoping all the best to him, but he usually plays really well against us.

Kuch not looking very good today so far, not gonna lie

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

He let in 3 or 4 goals in 5 of his 6 starts, but his masterpiece was keeping Matthews from #70 in the last game of the year.

We were much worse defensively last year to be fair

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Fun fact: the Rangers drafted Halverson 2 rounds before they drafted Shesterkin in 2014

Perbix letting the Utah forward hit halverson in the glove after the save is all I need to see.

 

[Master P]

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Big thing for Halverson right now is just worry about the next one. Forget what's happened so far. 1 big save could be the difference if we tie this game up or not

 

[Zwui21]

The issue I'm currently seeing is that we aren't hitting, but we aren't playing fast either. You have to play either heavy or fast to win in this league.

Team giving him plenty of opportunity to worry about the next one with all these turnovers.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

That was all you Perbix

 

[Hockeyville USA]

I complain a lot, so I will credit our guys for sticking it in despite the situation in net. This type of game last year would have been 7-2.

We look fast at home, slow on the road most of the time

 

[Master P]

We have a really good home record and a rather substandard road record.

One might say we struggle with not having the last change.

Coaching?

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Makes it easier for other teams to match up the kucherov line

 

[RussianGuyovich]

Welp

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Yeah that's on Halverson...

 

[Brie]

This is just stupid

 

[JTBF81]

Lol, game over

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Well f***

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

That's bad by everyone
