GDT: Game 22: Sharks @ Blues 5:00pm NBCSCA

[RayMartyniukTotems]

Loved the come back and the no quit in the Sharks...desperation plays and hustle great to see

 

[TheBeard]

I think it’s safe to say Celebrini is already better then Bedard

Comparing two phenoms who aren't even 20 is a pointless exercise.

 

[Munnyro]

I see they didn't list Romanov's stat line in goalie debut post game segment...

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Love the post game graphic that got both Antti Niemi's and Arturs Irbe's names spelled incorrectly. They need to invest in rebuilding the team's depth on the broadcast side of things.

Comparing two phenoms who aren't even 20 is a pointless exercise.

But it’s fun and it starts arguments! That being said I mean right now in their development Mack has a complete game

 

[JTB1974]

I don't care how the shootouts go in a season where points don't matter. As far as I am concerned this is a tie game. And that's a win IMO. Shootouts is not Hockey.

 

[The Nemesis]

Yeah but Celebrini beats Bedard's brains in.

Can’t watch the new guys.

 

[wishman]

Celebrini with nearly 24 minutes of ice time tonight!

 

[Munnyro]

Askarov's English reminds me a lot of Hertl in his early days.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

I thought Liljegren looked alright... otherwise this tracks with the eye test somewhat.

 

[Pinkfloyd]

Can’t watch the new guys.

You can really feel the disconnect to the team when you don't have someone who wasn't part of the team before. It's really odd and is pretty boring.

 

[Munnyro]

Grunstrom under 7 mins. I missed the 2nd and beginning of the 3rd, was he bad? Or does Warso just dislike him?

 

[Star Platinum]

I'm not sure many are putting the Shootout losses on the goalies (outside of maybe the first one that Blackwood could stop a thing).

Both sides of the shootout have been awful. Askarov actually put up a fight tonight.

 

[hohosaregood]

tbh blues should be embarassed by that effort

 

[Anomie2029]

tbh blues should be embarassed by that effort

They're a bad team. They'll just be happy to win.

I thought Liljegren looked alright... otherwise this tracks with the eye test somewhat.

Liljegren has that Ferraro anchor pulling him down.
It's happened to everyone of Ferraro's d-partners this season.

 

[Chinaski89]

The Blues are the worst.

Legitimately the only team I hate

 

[LadyStanley]

 

[karltonian]

Askarov's English reminds me a lot of Hertl in his early days.

for sure?

SNOG announcement​

It's just our second multi-SNOG of the year, but both predictions had the exact same lone goalscorer right.

The blues have not been good lately. Askarov with his first start! I'd predict a Smith dev day (or if not Smith, Celly... doubt it would be both?)

Reserving the right to edit this later if both of the golden children are out...

3-2 Blues OT.
Grundstrom with a greaser... Zetterlund.
Buchnevich, Saad, Kyrou.

Blues 3, Neigbors, Buch, Kyrou
Sharks 2, ECK, TOFF

Congrats @bullslugg on your first career SNOG and to both you and @coooldude on your first SNOGs of the season!

asky got neck tats

 

[weastern bias]

Finally caught up

It is very funny to SNOG a shutout and allow a goal 11 seconds into the game, Askarov is peak comedy

I liked the balance on the lines tonight, the team is bad and ineffective but they've found a mix that spreads the talent out in a way that makes sense

Nice for Celebrini to FINALLY notch a PP point, hopefully it's a dam that bursts for him, he was REAL good tonight and easily could have had a goal or two on top of his 2 assists

This version of Klim Kostin can stay forever, a belligerent shithead who plays with pace and is hard on the puck with possession? More please

I'm always amazed how much I actually like Givani Smith when he plays, maybe I'm just bad at watching hockey, but I swear he's one of the more competent facepunchers we've had in a long time at actual 5-on-5 play

Askarov is so weird, he feels like you're watching a broken toy figure out how all of his pieces are supposed to fit together out there, it's bizarre and clunky and awkward, and then you look up and he's posted a .935 sv% while his team is outshot to shit and drags the team to a tie, he's gonna be a lot of fun

Also, Wennberg is beautiful and we're getting married, don't tell my wife

I'm eating crow on Givani Smith this season for sure. He's looked fantastic since coming back into the lineup.

Finally we have a Smith with a bright future and loads of talent
