GDT: Game 53: LA Asmodians @ Phoenix Elyos | 7pm MST | FSA

[Howler Scores]

That awkward moment when you realize your backup goalie is better than your main goalie.

I know but every time I get high on him he will have a 5 goal night to bring me back down. Tonight was excellent and he stopped some shootout quality shots.

 

[Summer Rose]

I'd actually like a winger for the Vrby/Hanzal combo and move Doan back to Ribs' line. He just focused on setting up Doan all the time and it was pretty effective. Moss is an absolute waste of Ribs' talents.

Max Domi?

 

[Desert Ice 11]

Agreed. Moss is a waste of Ribs talents.

Domi next year with Hanzal and Vrbata (?)

Doan-Ribs-Boedker

Keep Vermin with Korpi.

The Boedker -Vermette- Korpi line is great. I wouldn't want to change something that is working. I think Domi would be great player to play next to Riberio.

 

[SweYote]

Max Domi?

If they were allowed to I'd imagine they would have done that already.

 

[Desert Ice 11]

Next year I guess

Greiss's worst game was against the Ducks, the number 1 team in points in the league. I forgave him for it, Smith would have been just as bad.

 

[Summer Rose]

I'm thinking about next year's top 9.

Moss is gone. He's just too expensive for what he brings.

Domi-Hanzal-Vrbata
Doan-Ribeiro-Klinkhammer
Korpi-Vermette-Boedker

Looks nice so far.

 

[Howler Scores]

"@cmorganfoxaz: Tip says Greiss likely to start against Buffalo. Not definite yet."

 

[Summer Rose]

Yeah, I meant next year on Domi.

Dave Tippett: "We caught a team right at the right time but that being said we played the right kind of game to take advantage of it."

 

[Plub]

It should be definite. Smith doesn't deserve to play and DT says his system is all about earning your playing time. Who knows, maybe it will shrink Smith's massive ego.

Korpi-Vermette-Boedker
Lessio-(Matthias)-Klinkhammer

You can't put Klinkhammer w/Ribeiro, he's already got Doan who isn't a scorer, Ribs needs a scorer

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

Just watched the DVR of the game, nice game to have against the Kings and nice to see Greiss get the SO

Btw, Greiss 13g 7-3-1 with a .931 save pct...if Smith was saving at .931 then we'd be right up there with Anaheim.

I due hope that Greiss gets the start vs. Buffalo, after a SO he deserves the start.

Michael Ryder.

Michael Ryder.

Yes, that would be perfect

Let's buy out Smith, sign Ryan Callahan, and bring up Mike Lee to back up Greiss?

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

...and Ryder can fill it up, haven't really heard anything good about his defense, but he knows Ribeiro and would be a great trigger man for him.

Also, with Lessio & Klinkhammer on the 4th line, the 4th line should have an advantage just so long as they're not being centered by Halpern and I thought Matthias would be a good choice.

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Biz was unreal tonight. Looked great. Best CAREER game, IMO.

 

[0point1]

Biz is having a great season. Great to see the Yotes stick up for themselves and don't let the other team run over them like previous games.

 

[Tom Polakis]

Just back, and now reading the thread. Best team effort I've seen in a while, but some of it may have been the Kings being flat. I asked at the end of the second if Ribeiro even played that period. Was he hurt for a while, or just that invisible offensively?

Greiss had better get rewarded with the start against the Sabres. We all remember Smith falling into the net with the puck last time we played them.

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Anyone hear anything about OEL? At the end of the game, he went into the boards awkwardly and looked to be skating gingerly on his right leg.

I noticed Ribeiro specifically actually twice. Both were in the third. One was him trying to make a tricky passing play work with him, Moss, and Klink, but it got mishandled by one of Moss or Klink.

The other, I saw him take a neutral zone faceoff, someone chipped the puck in, but he retreated to the red line as we fell back into a 4-man neutral zone defense with a single forechecker.

Oh indeed. Loved seeing him stick up for our guys out there tonight. If he keeps playing like this, he's certainly earned himself an extension.

The buttgoal was more of a fluke, but if the Gressiah didn't earn himself another start after that game, than I don't know what will.

 

[KG]

Z is such a good influence on OEL.
