Post-Game Talk: Bolts 4 - Jets 1, another winning streak over

DeMelo's had a rough start to the year.

I hate to say it because I absolutely love the guy and how he plays, but... as good of a partner he is for Jomo... he's not a prototypical 1RHD

 

[SensibleGuy]

This next game should be a gimme! PoMo is on our side!

 

[Keystone]

One narrative I have heard from Arniel and some of the players is the ability to reset after a game and focus on the next. They have done a good job of that for the wins so hopefully it is the same for a loss. Only one so far prior to last night so I am curious how the team bounce back.

To me it is those kinds of things that can separate a very good team from a great team

Things took a turn for the worse last year after the 3 goals or less streak was broken. They need to keep playing the same way they do 90% of the time no matter what transpires over the next couple games. Keep the “buy in” going as they say.

Worst game of the season by a mile. Interested to see how they respond.

Leafs game was worse.

Tampa played a really tight physical game. They were targeting 55 and 44 a lot, 55 had 2 "interference" hits on him, puck was nowhere near. Eiesymott ran 44 pretty bad. But that's hockey, we're an elite team in games that are open and not to physical. In a grinding physical game we can't make plays.

Hard to argue with out record but let's see how we do in Florida. Fatigue definitely becomes a factor playing this much. I do like how we have 4 solid lines.

I'd almost like to see Perfetti slide into the 2C spot, possibly put iafallow or Nino on the wing, just for some size and I think Perfetti is better in the middle long term. Hate to tamper though.

How about Miller swapping with DeMelo?

Or... Elias Salmonsson with 44? He's been dominant in his last few AHL games.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Not to overreact, but we suck.

 

[Jet]

Brian Engblom is the whiniest of whiny bitches.

yeah I'm not one to panic but we're never winning again...so probably time to trade Helly.

Who's trading for a goalie who couldn't even will his team to a win against the Lightning? Some people will come up with excuses like "we have won 15 games" and "he didn't even play yesterday," but are you really going to tell another GM that in trade negotiations?

Yeah, we'd probably have to eat some salary for sure.

It won't matter since we're in a fire sale situation anyway.

 

[Hobble]

We knew they were due for a loss, and the Jets conveniently got it out of the way before the two Florida games
