GDT: Game 1: "San Jose" Sharks @ Arizona Coyotes | 1/14/21 7:00 p.m AZ time | FS-A | Creative Juices

[Name Nameless]

Well, a point. See ya.

 

[Mosby]

Conor Garland is gonna get PAID in the offseason.

that contract was chayka’s best move

 

[XX]

They didn't play particularly well in any facet of the game but came back to get a point out of it.

I'll take it.

 

[KG]

Fun, competitive game, which I did not expect after the 1st period.

 

[Mosby]

Noticed at the end there ... was Stillman even on the bench?

 

[Muppet]

Ahhh well, you take the point, especially given how dire things looked after the first period. Decent final 40 though with a nice comeback. Garland A+ and the new guys looked good.

 

[More Cooley]

Sigh

 

[MayDayMayDay]

Content with one point, feel like we should have had two. SJ tried to give that game away.

 

[RABBIT]

All good, happy with the fight and the point

 

[moosemeister]

Lots is positives. Can’t be upset about this one

 

[Scottyb123]

Still boggles my mind how much OEL has regressed over the last few years.

 

[SniperHF]

Win woulda felt even better but great fight back. Got better all game long. Brassard looked pretty good, I like Pitlick.
Keller was trying. Garland is the team. Chychrun got stronger as it went on.

Kuemper was definitely not dialed in all the way. Clean up some mistakes early and it's a W.

Yeah thought we'd at least have the advantage with Kuemper in the shootout.

 

[Bonsai Tree]

I’m happy with the point. Well fought game. Shoot outs are such a crap shoot they might as well throw dice to see who wins.

 

[LuckyNumber11]

Honestly I thought we played okay. Lots of fight which was an issue last year. Happy to come away with a point

 

[BigJCaRoach]

That was fun

nice to get the taste of Colorado out of my mouth

 

[Mosby]

Raanta next game? Kuemper was fine. Just think Raanta needs reps.

 

[XX]

Garland was 2nd in TOI, only 20 seconds off the lead (Dvorak 21:24). Kessel just under 16 mins.

Turns out 1.) Tocchet wants to keep his job and 2.) Putting good players out the majority of the time gives you the best chance to win, weird

 

[Mosby]

For his first game in 10 months I thought Schmaltz looked decent too.

 

[moosemeister]

It’s so weird that OEL is the worst player on the ice with Stepan gone. Haha

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

Yeah thought we'd at least have the advantage with Kuemper in the shootout.

Career Shootout Save% Kuemper .660 Jones .770

didn't know Jones was that good in Shootouts, but he's 4th on the all time list.

 

[RemoAZ]

They mentioned an under the radar motivation of this team. We have several guys with contracts due next year. We should get their very best every night. No better motivation than money for a professional athlete. Could be significant.

I'll take it.

They had energy. Moxy. They got the f***en lead out they assess. I didn’t hate them when they were losing. Big night. Big night for me.

 

[JoeThorntonsRooster]

How much of a hot take around here is it to say Garland is the best player on the team?

He is.
