GDT: Game 20: Sharks vs. Red Wings 7:30pm NBCSCA

I won’t believe it until I see the chart.

 

[Tw1ster]

Got it.
My point, if we kill the penalty, where’s the praise for the Marios and Jans?

I think the unit as a whole gets praise and Mario constantly gets praise for blocking shots no? Not gonna get much outta me on Rutta but if it’s any solace to you, I thought Walman was worse than both of them that period

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Pretty sure Rutta was getting the blame on that one for covering nothing.

Forwrds were out of position allowing shot to get through, resulting in the rebound score

 

[Pinkfloyd]

just saying, not the first time this year that drew's been vocally frustrated with something ferraro did offensively. he's usually been a little more understanding with ferraro in the past.

Maybe but Ferraro gives good reason to be frustrated with his play. I can't blame anyone for feeling it.

Very few praise much here. It’s bizarre.

I’ve been told Mario’s blocking is a direct criticism of his terrible defense so even a compliment tends to be backhanded.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

So tiring to be down after outplaying them.so f***ing frustrating

Yeah fair enough, I think one thing Mario thrives at is the PK where he can be greasy and throw it down the ice without having to look for an outlet

I’m not saying he doesn’t deserve his fair share of criticism but at this point it feels like some here actively root for him to do something bad just so they can comment.

Only way they will comment.

 

[hohosaregood]

this is a poorly planned match up.

 

[TheBeard]

Blackwood is on fire

 

[Hodge]

Ceci is our only good defenseman

 

[OrrNumber4]

Brown/Haley/Torres should not be in the "legends" game.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

It's rhe Blackwood and Friemds show again. I don't think I can take this anymore lol

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Ceci is our only good defenseman

Give it time. He has his consistency issues as well.

 

[hohosaregood]

this wennberg line has been bad

 

[TheBeard]

Give it time. He has his consistency issues as well.

lol all this pressure is a result of a Ceci turnover.

 

[The411]

Did the Sharks take a nap between periods?

Stop this. I get that not everyone likes the criticism of some players, but making sweeping, pithy, dismissive generalizations about posters is a) quite petty and b) against the rules.

You wouldn't like it if I said that some posters around here are blind cheerleaders that are too fragile to read anything bad about the team if it was strongly directly/indirectly implied to be about you. So I'd appreciate you not going after the posters you disagree with with crap like this.


People are allowed to criticize players if they wish. Even if others think the criticism is unwarranted, excessive, or incorrect. The acceptable responses are to either ignore it or address it on the merits of the content itself.

This goes for everyone. Yes, constant complaining about stuff can get annoying. But that includes constant complaining about complaining.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Thompson should be playing.....

 

[drunksage]

Eklund x2!!

 

[hohosaregood]

lmao nice shot

 

[Lebanezer]

Tommy Salo lives on!!

 

[TheBeard]

That goal was all Ferraro
