Patches was cherry picking hard-core there

How else do you think he gets a breakaway every other game?

He really has a tendency for waiting the puck at the other team's blue-line... Whether that's part of the stretch pass plan or not is unknown.

This offense consists of three things :

Rush plays, Point shots and stretch passes.

win or lose, this game is discouraging. How long has it been since this franchise has an authentic dominant team that hammered teams like this? im not going to start believing in this team until they stop depending on goaltending so much.

having these high point totals is suprising and in the long run, its enabling the management to ignore the big issues.

I'm critical of it because shots are not a perfect indicator of possession. They are just correlated, not proportional.

That being said, I was clearly wrong on that one.

I guess that's why they called the stats Corsi and not possession time.:innocent:

oh please, like dd is the problem in this ****show
There was one instance he shoulda shot but yeah, he's not glaring right now.

I wrote about it last GDT but our forecheck and chip-and-chase really undoes our good neutral zone play.

We have very little room to maneuver from the end boards to the end of the circle where our offense usually operates. It's a mess of sticks and makes for a very tough time getting off shots or passes.

Thomas is putting in a good effort. That's about the only positive so far tonight.

Can we put these lines to bed.

They are a disaster. Yes we all said it when therrien put them together.

He was probably only one who thought they could work
