Time to change things up. Gotta put Gustafson in at this point.

 

[Prior]

Twitter is laughing at this, says he has no business in the NHL anymore. Also Guerin could be in the hot seat, signed an old worn out goalie and let Talbot go.

As long as Twitter says it.

$50 says Evason doesn't even talk to the team this intermission and the only change he makes is pulling Fleury. He should be murdering some of those lines. Hartman should be towel boy at this point.

Hope like hell Brodin is carrying an injury through camp and the start of the year because he can’t move anymore. If this is pace, that contract will be as bad as any.

This is what I thought after the first game. No way his gap coverage, elite skating, etc. diminished at his age. Gotta be some sort of groin/leg injury.

 

[Minnesota]

As long as Twitter says it.

I was inclined to agree until he said Twitter, but now I know I’m wrong.

He did get married. Maybe he’s not getting much sleep.

I asked for that job, Hartman can sell hot dogs

I doubt Evason is feeling any urgency. He knows he has a long leash since he's only one month into his multi-year extension.

But Twitter was the first thing he said

I'm down for a tank year. From the garbage ads on jerseys and helmets, cap moves, current roster, etc.

He's playing like a guy who got married and wife has just had triplets.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

It looks like we're "hanging Fleury out to dry". In reality, we're probably just playing like an average NHL team. Other goalies deal with these types of chances all of the time.

 

[GordieGallant]

We are going to come back and win this one.

 

[NHL1674]

We are going to come back and win this one.

I already made a bet with someone should we win. Not too worried about it.

 

[Spurgeon]

Really glad Guerin gave Fleury that extra year.

 

[Webster]

Evason should be in the locker room right now, and say a few words. I doubt he's in there...

 

[NHL1674]

Really glad Guerin gave Fleury that extra year.

Gut feeling is he doesn't see that extra year. He keeps struggling like this, he may pull a 'Walz' and retire mid-season. Actually Walz left just one month into the season.

 

[BagHead]

We are going to come back and win this one.

Like because of the optimism.

 

[Prior]

Felt switching to Tequila might be the better choice.

 

[57special]

I miss you, Kevin!

Well, one can really struggle all that long like "this." At some point he either has to improve or there is now way they can send him out there. But then, it should be the whole team has to improve upon this or come our next homestand the stands won't be nearly as full.

 

[Wasted Talent]

Gustavsson was a Penguins draft pick? Of course he was.

 

[DigitalBoldy]

Starter position is up for grabs Gus, let's see what you've got.

 

[123TripleDoge]

I still expect us to win. That'll be a typical result - Grind out a miraculous win, but leave even more question marks than before the game lol

 

[The Enemy Within]

Can't be worse.

 

[Minnesota]

Gustavsson great save right away.
