Fun.

Lundqvist locked it down in the second and third period. Not a great first period. But locked it down.

 

[Kakko]

Yeah man. This is just shot attempts but it's still...nice

wtf Florida? have they just had way more powerplays than PKs?

 

[aufheben]

Yeehaw!

wtf Florida? have they just had way more powerplays than PKs?

It's rates, not totals, but apparently they just don't give up a lot of shots on the PK.

 

[Baby Punisher]

Another solid come from behind win. The team is making a grand habit of these.

 

[Machinehead]

1st was good, 3rd was remarkable. 2nd was a disaster. (At even strength, anyway)

Still a long way to go for Hank.

Offense is bae.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

Great win. Goals are fun.

Hayes is in lalaland 90% of the time. Granted he's been better lately, but he still doesn't always know where to be.

I'm just saying he's not far and away the worst player in his own-zone.

Really? AV gave Hayes some tough defensive assignments and he hasn't failed. Hayes is somewhat underrated defensively with that reach of his.

 

[bl02]

Positive post game thread maybe??

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

PP wins us the game? Check. Come back from 2-0 down? Check. Shut down in the third period? Check.

 

[Mac n Gs]

1) Give up a goal less than a minute in
2) Go on scoring rampage
3) ?????
4) Profit

Pretty sure this is the third game in a row we've given up a super early goal and then we've come back to win. Watching Milbury eat his own words was just the icing on the cake. **** Mike Milbury.

 

[Irishguy42]

We're streaking!

 

[Placid]

That was a fantastic comeback after the first period

 

[mike14]

Good win, i only saw from the 2nd half of the second onwards but from what I saw:
1. Pirri
2. Nash
3. Miller
HM. Vesey

Looked pretty solid all round

 

[Ail]

YAy offense!

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Yeah, no. We use Hayes on the PK for a reason, and he's far from "lalaland". He's not amazing, but he's certainly not awful. Nowhere near as bad as Pirri.

Why do you keep switching the question?

Is it "who is better defensively" or "in the defensive zone"

Rasp, try and keep up. MH and I are using the terms interchangeably and having an actual conversation on this. You're trying to pretend to not understand. Don't be annoying.

 

[Ori]

It must be frustrating for the Boston Coach with so many horrible penalties in the same game - he was not happy about it.
2 pts indeed after a slow start.))

 

[Gardner McKay]

1st was good, 3rd was remarkable. 2nd was a disaster.

Still a long way to go for Hank.

Offense is bae.

This word should have died with "on fleek".

Agree with your assessment on the third. I thought we were atrocious in the 1st.

2-0 leads are an icy-cruel *****. Claude pls

 

[5 4 Fighting]

Not a pretty first, but I'm happy we got Hank's back and let him breathe a sigh of relief.

So next game how does
McDonagh-Pirri sound!

 

[Machinehead]

If we could play every third period that well, that'd be just peachy.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Really? AV gave Hayes some tough defensive assignments and he hasn't failed. Hayes is somewhat underrated defensively with that reach of his.

Exactly. Hayes is far from awful defensively.

This conversation is the most absurd conversation I have had on this board in about a full calendar year. Maybe longer. I have no idea. I never thought I'd see the day when I had to debate whether, of all people, Brandon Pirri is somehow better or worse than our defensemen defensively.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Not a pretty first, but I'm happy we got Hank's back and let him breathe a sigh of relief.

Better than McD-Holden

 

[Lion Hound]

No poll?

 

[Hunter Gathers]

You can thank me. We started scoring when I turned the game on.
