I liked some of the bottom sixers: Ivan, Wood, Kivi all had good energy.
Its frustrating.


There's a legitimate powerhouse team here, just cant figure out the goaltending at all so far. But you get Colton back in a couple more weeks and hopefully Drouin as well, you really could have 4 fantastic lines, especially if Bedsy really is going to keep Mikko and Mack split up and let the chemistry develop a little with the new lines:


Lehky - Mack - Nuke
Drouin - Mitts - Mikko
LOC - Colton - Kovalenko
Wood - Kelly - Ivan
Kivi

That is legitimately 4 really solid lines, and hell Kivi as your 13th forward is a pretty good spot to be in also. The defense is solid as well with Malinski establishing himself as a legit #5 IMO, probably just need one upgrade on CDH/Kyllington really.


But the damn goaltending needs to be the focus. Its encouraging that Georgiev has put together ~3-4 good starts in a row now(The Tampa game the other day I dont even blame him or care about his results that much), but Annunen is clearly a problem either way and they need to give George a legitimate challenger or at least good backup.

Personally I really, really still wish they would just go get Gibson. Even if George is their guy right now and ends up bouncing back big time this year, Gibby would be a top quality backup and fantastic insurance into the playoffs, then if we let George walk next year like we have the rest of our goalies you've got Gibson to start.


And none of this is even accounting for Landy, who I still really think will be back at some point and I'm actually of the believe its more about playing cap games right now then it's actually been about a Landy setback.

Mack hates him, so it isn't worth it, get it off the team.

I'm sure the win makes the entire team feel like weak bitches because anything Nuke does is bad.

You all are f*** tards for that narrative, just saying, and I'm gonna say eat a dick for it. Don't celebrate the win, you don't deserve to unless you're a hypocrite.

Everyone who talked that shit deserves to eat that dick. Especially if you are celebrating the win right now.
I can celebrate a win and say f*** Val Nichushkin at the same time, and I will not stop saying f*** Val Nichushkin until he proves he can make it through the season.

You're just a bitch focused on the past

Weakness is for those who hold their heart in what was, and not what is..

He just won that game lol. Your inability to give him credit is just an inability to move on from something he just urinated on.

Just saying lol

Nuke can be a game changer if we want to win the cup.
Ya think? We ain't winning the Cup without him. His history makes that pretty obvious. Sucks to have to worry about him making it through the playoffs but no way they win two series without him at full speed.

Nuke has as many goals as he has daggers in the back of this team, so the idea that a win tonight is some kind of redemption is hilarious.

f*** that guy. He owns every joke and every slight he gets.
Hey, you never know. Nuke can be given an A on his jersey in a few years for showing a good example of overcoming substance abuse issues and by being a core player of our team.
