Post-Game Talk: Game #3: Dallas Stars 2-1 @ Nashville Preds 1-2

[King Weber]

Roussel up to his usual shenanigans.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

That was just a matter of time. Deflection goal. I don't even think Pekka could see a thing with all those bodies in front of him.

But but but Pekka faces so little shots especially high quality! Muh advanced stats says he's the worst goalie in the league!

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Much better 2nd period.

 

[bdub24]

Is Subban only going to be used for firing one timers?

Our guys don't know what else to do with the dman opposite Josi.

 

[Gnashville]

Anyone have the ref's e-mail address? They may need to watch this again.

I'm not quite following you on this one. Josi and PK are not paired together on the PP.

Jessie's Girl. House band staple since 1981.

Fiala draws a penalty. PP time

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Important PK here with Josi in the box. Good Kill.

 

[bdub24]

My bad, thought it was Josi and Subban on that 2nd PP. joke withdrawn.

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Dam it Spezza.

 

[Gnashville]

It had to be freaking Spezza

 

[LCPreds]

I feel like tonight is one of those nights where I'm wondering if player x is playing tonight. What a snooze fest.

 

[INDhockeyfan]

That was Wilson deflecting it to Spezza. Still a lot of time.

 

[Gnashville]

Is is time to start worrying? Because this team is looking very average and cannot score even strength.

It's the 3rd game of an 82 game season. No.

 

[BonMorrison]

2nd unit on the last 30 seconds wasn't very good.

 

[INDhockeyfan]

Preds lose 2-1. Can't say it was Pekka's fault because he was great in fact we would have lost worse if it wasn't for him. I think it might be time to switch the lines up.

For sure. Top lines need shaking up.

 

[triggrman]

Kind of a boring game don't think the preds played real smart at times.

Less and less of a carle fan.

I love Arvidsson's hustle but his hockey IQ is low.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Really disappointed with the forwards.

Ekholm, Ellis and Smith just passing it around in the last 45 seconds was beyond frustrating.

Pekka was awesome. That second goal was really unfortunate/unlucky.

I want a Bitetto/Weber pairing when Bitetto comes back. Carle is not impressive at all.

Other than the last half of the 2nd period and the last few minutes of the game when we were desperate for an equalizer, the Stars took it to us.

 

[deansredhalo]

Chances galore and still no finish anywhere to be found.

I know it's only 2 games, however anyone thinking that Rinne's rebirth is back? I mean I truly think that last season was his true outlier season. 2012-2013 (In which his overall save percentage was only slightly below league average despite playing on a horrendous team in which Rinne had to oversave shots (Aka limiting the shots was more on him than the defense doing their jobs), and 2013-2014 he was severely injured.

It is WAY too early to say Rinne is 'back'. It has just been 2 games for him, and half of the first one he looked pretty sub-par.
He played well tonight for sure, but check back in another 15-20 starts to see how his play has been. A disappointing loss all around.

We'll see what happens. All I know is Bleedred will probably come and say how Rinne should have had a shutout and because he didn't he sucks.
