GDT: Game 10 | Columbus @ New Jersey | 2 PM EST

[Marioesque]

I hope Elvis makes a Roy decision

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

This team just keeps getting worse. They're a young team that should be getting better.

Has to get worse before it gets better

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Send Jiricek down after the Finland games. Save him from this fire

 

[Cowumbus]

Jiricek…wow…

Poor Elvis

Almost like he’s 18 and doesn’t have NHL strength yet.

 

[aRussian]

I don't even know what to be mad at anymore. Getting spanked and giving up so many dangerous chances and turning over and losing board battles and having no fight at all. Team is neutered. Just garbage play all around

 

[ViD]

Almost like he’s 18 and doesn’t have NHL strength yet.

Shouldn’t be playing in the NHL yet then ?

 

[Farmboy Patty]

Jarmo needs to press the reset button. The whole team with a few excemptions have underperformed so far this season. They are palying beer league level hockey in the NHL, with the sum being less than the parts that it’s built of. A HC change should be the first option, unless the secret plan is to tank.

I say we should just ride it out, if there’s a year to tank, this one is

We really need to make it less obvious.

 

[ViD]

Seems like Gavrikov is the only one shooting the puck tonight

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Can the fan base endure a season of games like these if there’s a top 2 pick that comes from it?

 

[NotWendell]

Yep. Look what we've endured for the better of 22 years.

 

[ViD]

Can the fan base endure a season of games like these if there’s a top 2 pick that comes from it?

Yes, there’s a group of franchise altering players on the line

 

[tunnelvision]

A HC change should be the first option, unless the secret plan is to tank.

But is there a coach who would be able to reach the Lars Bar?

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Other bold predictions
1. Elvis stays healthy for the whole season
2. Laine and Gaudreau don't make it to December together.
3. Marchenko gets recalled in November and stays for good.
4. Nyquist and Gavrikov get traded at the deadline
5. Boqvist gets traded during the season
6. Korpisalo has a GAA in the 2's, gets traded at the deadline
7. Jackets start the season slow (as in,October and November), ends the season hot
8. KJ gets sent down at some point.
9. PP continues to struggle, ends in the late teens/early 20's.
10. PK will be bottom 5 in the league.

My predictions in the predictions thread looking pretty good, unfortunately.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

It’s easy to say looking that far ahead. But what about December? February?

 

[Cowumbus]

Shouldn’t be playing in the NHL yet then ?

Yes that’s what I said we they called him up…

 

[Farmboy Patty]

Has to get worse before it gets better

Technically, it always gets worse until it gets better. This reminds me of my mom, when she’s looking for something that she’s lost, who when she finally finds it, says that she had such crazy luck that it was in the last place she was looking for it

 

[Cowumbus]

Too bad Voracek looks washed

 

[NotWendell]

My predictions in the predictions thread looking pretty good, unfortunately.

My prediction of an 84 point season is looking too optimistic. My prediction of Tarasov taking over the cage, keeping Korpi and trading Elvis is looking better - but good luck trying to find a taker at this point.

Your guy Roslovic. Puck watching.

Again, playing PK DOES NOT mean you are a good two way player.

I’m not sure who’s more at fault that we have Roslovic and Sillinger playing on the penalty kill…Jarmo or Larsen??

 

[Cowumbus]

I’m not sure who’s more at fault that we have Roslovic and Sillinger playing on the penalty kill…Jarmo or Larsen??

Yes

 

[NotWendell]

I’m not sure who’s more at fault that we have Roslovic and Sillinger playing on the penalty kill…Jarmo or Larsen??

That's because they're equally responsible.

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

No goalies, no defense, no offense.

At least give me one so there's something to enjoy
