GDT: Canes at Bolts

[AhosDatsyukian]

Thank you so much turbo if that little shit Ross Colton won it for them I’d have been so pissed. And thanks Aho for getting us the extra point. Nice win boys

 

[whiskers]

Which broadcast, bolts or canes?

was watching bolt games on sportsnet now which replaces center ice hockey for us, shootout begins and they switch feed to the vancouver pre game , anthems etc , i pay 40$ a month for that lol , was gonna cancel anyhow , now that i know kodi is working again

 

[Unsustainable]

I ain’t happy, but 2 points is 2 points

 

[Summer Rose]

Congratulations on the win.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Setting aside the shootout result, that’s a really strong way to win on the road. Tampa’s still a good team, and got a great game from their goalie. Canes were on the verge of falling apart mentally but pulled it back together and clawed back. It was a shooting gallery in the Lightning end, most of the time that’s a regulation win.

True but next time they should set a goal for 80 SoG. 60 isn't gonna get it done in regulation.

 

[CupInSIX]

I really thought he’d go 5 hole….

He went for something more Datsyukian...

 

[surfzone365]

I’ll take it. Given the SOG disparity in our favor should have easily gotten this in regulation, Vasi or not. 2 points keep on rollin!

 

[MisterDobz]

They stayed out of the box (mostly) and won the game.

Aho

Alternate angle

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

We'll be trading for a 2nd line center by the deadline. I want to give Kotkaniemi time but he just isn't showing anything. He's a bottom 6 forward at best right now.

I really think the answer is moving Necas to C and JK down to 3rd line when Patches comes in.

Patches - Aho - Turbo
Svech - Necas - Jarvis
Stastny - Kotkaniemi - Kase/Noesen
Martinook - Staal - Fast

 

[surfzone365]

Congratulations on the win.

GG! Bolts are always a tough match

 

[Negan4Coach]

Wow, gutsy win I didn't expect. When was the last time we won a shootout in that many rounds I wonder?

 

[LBS I Digress]

Patches - Aho - Turbo
Svech - Necas - Jarvis

A million times yes

Probably a more likely scenario. After all cap room to add a stud 2nd line center won't exactly be easy to come by.

But Necas has been dynamite on the wing, not sure if we want to mess with that.

I don’t like to make up lines, but I think these look pretty good.

 

[Identity404]

TBH I'd really like to see Drury in Kotkaniemi's place for a few games.

 

[Tryamw]

So @tarheelhockey was I better then the ESPN app?

 

[WreckingCrew]

So, just got home apparently as we finished up here, missed the game though. Looks like we outshot them by a ridiculous 57-26...did we dominate them that much and just get Vasi'd? Or was this yet another Bill Peto special of frustrating crappy shots and missed opportunities?

Well We Let them have Power plays... /sigh
Also Yawning Cages are tough to hit.. (the inside of)

 

[DaveG]

56 shots is just nuts. Vasi is literally one of only two goalies in the league that this team can put that up on and it not be an absolute clown pounding of a game

 

[MisterDobz]

Another yawner…. Only 72 more until it gets interesting!

*stares in confused backup goalie shutout*

He also the only goalie in the NHL that is genuinely worth every single penny of $9.5M a year. I'm glad that the Canes got their two points, but Vasi very nearly stole that game.

 

[DaveG]

*stares in confused backup goalie shutout*

ok, one of only two STARTING goaltenders in this league

Didn’t feel like we got goalied as much since we fell behind on two separate occasions but buckled down and found the tying goal both times. Vasi really did have a good game.
