GDT: Game 5: Golden Knights at Coyotes (#3 of 4) - 7PM - FSA+

[XX]

To me this looks like Garland did try to chip it up the boards, although blindly. He likely sensed Theodore coming right behind him. Garland really wasn't open.

Goose looks at the VGK when he's still in front of the net. Then puts his head down and sends it blindly up the boards. He had time, he didn't have to panic.

Goligoski had all the time in the world there and made a shitty play. That's on him. He has to know VGK forecheckers are waiting on his outlet forward.

He has been doing no look backwards passes every game this year, sometimes into the slot.

Park him.

To watch this team wearing those black Kachinas shirts is delightful. Really crisp uniforms.

Ha, good edit. I can see editing is pointless when we have have live GDTs.

But when do you get the Russian into the states?

Haha I tried!

And it can't be soon enough to get him here. He's not a world beater but he can at least help with the option of benching one of these guys who is playing like crap.

Man I would love to see him get the Tort's treatment. Publicly benched after plays like that.

Maybe Kuemper has broken through some that rust.

The trainers used this on him.

So many bad decisions with the puck. He panics everytime he senses someone could possibly make contact with him. And his go to is a weak pass/chip in. At best they end up in a puck battle we usually lose. At worst it's an odd man rush.

He does it in the o zone too. The puck will come to him at the blue line, an opposing player comes towards him and he immediately chips it weakly away. Up the board into a puck battle we lose or cleanly to the other team.

This may not end well. But they think were in Vegas still.

The forum collectively hates on Goose every year, but at the end of the year every year, he's been seen as a net positive. He has definitely been awful to start the season, but with 51 games left (max), I'm not terribly worried. It'd be fun to see him sit a game to get his ahead straight and let Capo get back in. Soderstrom should stick based on his play tonight.

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

Penguins should be looking for D, let's trade them Goligoski.

 

[British yote]

After two periods soderstrom shouldn’t be sitting a game in a while.

Sweetness!

Pay that man before he gets too damn expensive

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Wow. That looked professional.

 

[Muppet]

Holy f*** that was a nice play

 

[RemoAZ]

Jesus can we extend Garland already?

 

[KG]

I'm pleased Schmaltz is so far playing to his potential and contract!

 

[WrinkledPossum]

Who? Garland or Caggiula?

 

[GiveAFlyingPuck]

Jesus can we extend Garland already?

Are you praying?

 

[Jamieh]

Garland looks around the room at Schmaltz, Keller, and Kessel and says......sure I'm willing to talk long term contract.

 

[RemoAZ]

I'm pleased Schmaltz is so far playing to his potential and contract!

I'll admit, this is the first time I've liked his play more than just a flash here and there. Hopefully he's turned the corner to some consistency.

 

[technoviking]

Soderstrom caught trying to change, first mistake i’ve seen

 

[RemoAZ]

Are you praying?

 

[Name Nameless]

I'm watching with a big smile. I just realized.
