QUOTES TO NOTE:

Our line probably chased it a little more than we wanted.
I'd like to say that we didn't give them a lot, but obviously we gave up two pretty important goals and we're on the ice.
We played a little too much D and didn’t get enough riding time in the O zone, but you’re going to have those games and you need to weather the storm.
- Chris Kreider

You dream about playing in the NHL your whole life, and once the opportunity comes, there's nerves that come with it.
Now with four games under my belt, I'm just trying to be as consistent as I can be and help the team in whatever way I can.
- K'Andre Miller

As part of our learning curve, we have to understand situational hockey. You’re up 3-1, a lot of good things are happening, and we really didn’t understand the moment.
With six minutes to go, we’re still doing things like we’re down 3-1, and it came back and bit us.
- David Quinn

Lose today and this season is going sideways fast. They really need the 2 points.

2-2-1 looks a lot different than 1-3-1. 5 out of 10 points vs 3 out of 10. You need to change the outlook tonight.

Miller has been pretty rock solid thus far. Keep feeding him minutes.

Problem is we keep starting JJ. He only had 14+ minutes of ice time last game but that makes it a waste to start him then. Start Smith who you can trust with the 16-17 minutes. Thats 2-3 extra shifts in a game.

DQ needs to wake up and stop with the JJ nonsense. Gauthier should also be back in the lineup.
 
get a win here please

we should've won last game

he doesn't get a lot of ice time but almost every f***ing goal we give up at ES he's on the ice for and usually has a hand in.

Also would prefer Smith over JJ but giving Smith more minutes means less for Miller and Lindgren and so far it doesn’t look like it’s needed.

Johnson will get his first point before Laf. Book it.
 
Same lineup that blew two goal lead? If you can't change after a 5-0 win, I understand, but maybe after a loss? Especially when that lineup includes the WORST player in the league?

johnson will not only get his first point before Laf but he'll end up with more too at the end of the season :(
 
My big question tonight is the goalie. Quinn needs to get shesterkin games. He’s the number one there is no 1a 1b here thing. I don’t fault shesterkin on one goal Friday night. All ridiculous and the two in the shootout were about as perfect as it gets.

quinn needs to start solidifying the lineup. That starts with shesterkin

you can play with Johnson/smith and Rooney/gauthier all you want but otherwise you gotta get some continuity out there

Oh the possibilities. But it's game 5.
 
Maybe move Howden to 2C and Strome to 4th line? I think Howden was pretty solid last game.
Panarin-Strome-Buchnevich had the puck almost the whole time against the Penguins, they just couldn't get anything to go in. Strome going for a sad wrister on a breakaway wasn't good though, he's really fighting it. Didn't they use him in shootouts sometimes?

Kakko scored last game so he will be deservedly scratched for reasons and stuff. DQ has instead opted to personally sign Jimmy Vesey to a one game contract and will aim for 17 minutes of ice time. He will line up opposite Parnarin, with Buch promptly demoted to the bottom 6 for playing too well
