GDT: GAME 2 HURRICANES @ PANDAS

[Saekk]

Well now it's over, might as well start playing a bit rough now to show it will be a different kind of game in Raleigh.

 

[Unsustainable]

f*** this

 

[SaskCanesFan]

Someone that hit my neck with a stick would be in my head too. Not sure I could skate away from that.

I never found it that difficult. Team logo on the front comes first, control your emotions

 

[DougieSmash]

Comical penalty killing.

 

[Svechhammer]

Man Mrazek is awful

 

[WreckingCrew]

Remember Bruins fans talking about the penalties against us in the 3rd just being part of "game management"? Yea, apparently it's only 1 way application

 

[The Jerk Store]

Enough of the refs ignoring his antics. Someone needs to lay Marchand out Scott Stevens-style.

 

[Wolfpuck]

We'll always have the first 40 minutes of game 1.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Would love to be a fly on the wall in the room right now.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

I don't mind Williams taking a retaliatory penalty there. The Canes aren't coming back.

I just wish he would have got his money's worth on it.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

So, do we go with Mac in game three or stay with Mrazek? Not totally his fault, but not one of his better game too.

 

[DougieSmash]

I hate playing Boston over CBJ...

 

[Crazydounut]

Welp. Get a pound of flesh this 3rd. Wear them out. Get back home healthy and try to use the home ice to win both at PNC. Series is definetly not over by any means. But this was probably the worst game ive seen us play all season

 

[CaniacSZN]

Mrazek has let in a couple soft ones today but he’s also had a couple really good saves. The Hurricanes weren’t winning this game with prime Hasek in net. Bruins have just dominated the first 2 periods.

 

[SaskCanesFan]

We'll always have the first 40 minutes of game 1.

We'll always have the first 93 games as well. No matter how this ends, it's been a magical season. But yeah, a better ending would be preferable

Brind'Amour won't pull a goalie now. Save McElhinney from this disaster and start him Tuesday.

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Your avatar and this comment is a bit ironic considering Leaves fans think Babcock is the only reason they're not going to win back to back Stanley Cups this year.

Yea the Leaves are a really good team I like them a lot

 

[Identity404]

Mac better be in net game 3. That is all. Goodnight.

 

[Rempe73]

I knew it. I had a feeling. They should have started McElhinney after Game 1. This is not hindsight bias. Play the hot goalie whoever he may be. This is the one crucial mistake RBA made in my opinion. If I were him, I would play McElhinney in the 3rd to see if he’s still sharp and give him some game time so he’s not cold. Then I would start him in Raleigh. It’s tough. The Bruins are playing great and Rask is superhuman today, so I can’t completely blame RBA and Mrazek.

 

[zman77]

Williams did the right thing.
Can't believe the Refs in this game.
They protect Marchand no matter what he does out there.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Momentum can change in a series in an instant.

Just have to go back home, use the crowd to score a couple early and break the Bruins structure.

I wouldn't give up on this series just yet. They've done it before.

 

[Plevna]

Man Mrazek is awful

Yes but whole team is bad as well. Every single player on ice.

 

[Svechhammer]

This is the one crucial mistake RBA made in my opinion

Having garbage special teams is his biggest mistake

 

[Stickpucker]

Canes dominated 16 mins of first period and Mrazek let's in a softy. Looked like it deflated the team.

Canes aren't executing on their chances.

 

[Rempe73]

Having garbage special teams is his biggest mistake

Just wondering, what would you suggest he change? Besides, he isn’t in charge of special teams, right? That’s on the assistant coaches, if I’m not mistaken.
