This game is so aggressively ass I actually forgot the period ended and was wondering why the commercial break took so long.

least it didn't end 30 seconds into a powerplay...

How does an entire team come out so flat after 3 days rest?

Two sexier games coming up on the road trip. They need to focus on the opponent in front of them first.

Actually this is a picture of what that looks like

She knows best!

 

[LowLefty]

Everytime 55 goes down... this team becomes like this.

Yeah, he's hard to replace - but it should never be Lowry.
I'd put Names up there and let Cole center the 2nd - and sort out the wingers to fill what I've left out.
Lowry and the third should not be messed with

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Thank God Helly remembered there was a game today. So far he has signally handedly kept us in this one.

Apparently he loves afternoon games.

They always seem to feel awkward for a lot of players - creatures of routine I guess.

 

[dcypher]

I’m Expecting the Ehlers 3rd period show.

 

[KingBogo]

Okay, got a couple complaints out of the way. We are still winning. Lets just take control of the flow in the 3rd and grind this one down, and not depend on Helly having to stop 15 shots.

Bones beter be ripping these guys a new asshole.
They are a bottom dwelling team and they pretty much dominated us that period.
We're down by at least 2 if not for Helle.

I’m Expecting the Ehlers 3rd period show.it would be nice if he could hit the net and stop making dangerous passes.

 

[LowLefty]

Maybe - I'm thinking it's more about slotting players into roles they can't support - Lowry comes to mind.
You make the 3rd and 1st worse with one move - not sure that makes sense
Hopefully 55 is back next game and this gong show comes to a halt.

I’m Expecting the Ehlers 3rd period show.

And Morrissey.

 

[bustamente]

Helle always has a strong game when he plays quiet, big and at the top pf his crease.

 

[The Blue Baron]

Dilly interviewed by what appears to be a dwarf.

 

[macmaroon]

Nice interview with Dillon. Looks like he is having a good time with the team...

Yeah they showed Helly's stats on afternoon games, and he has a career .933 SV% on them.

 

[Joe Hallenback]

As a player I hated afternoon games. Give me mornings or nights ever time. But I knew a few guys who really liked them

 

[Mad Dog Tannen]

“Guys the jets are way more than Hellebuyck this year. He’s not saving our butts in 1-0 games anymore. We don’t need him to! God do you even watch the jets?!!”

Hockey day in Canada….nation watching…

“Ummm it’s not normally like this. We swear! This is totally weird, ask my girlfriend. She’ll back me up. She lives in the states, when she comes up to visit ask her”

 

[KingBogo]

Helle always has a strong game when he plays quiet, big and at the top pf his crease.

Agreed. He is the most positionally sound goalie I think I have ever seen.

I can see that if they looked like they were putting in an effort but just not clicking, they just look lazy.

 

[Romang67]

I suspect the team is gassed. That, combined with an afternoon game, is probably not the best mix.

The awful PP doesn't help.

 

[LowLefty]

They do look slow - but I just don't get why they move a checking center to the top line and expect that to work.
Hopefully this experiment if over soon

 

[The Blue Baron]

wake up here Jerts

 

[Fatdrunk]

I rather get drunk on zima then watch the PWHL

How the f*** could they be gasses after not playing for 3 days, that's a really shitty excuse.
