The Burnsie slide strikes again

 

[bluefunnel]

Eklund!!!

Thank you Burns.

 

[hohosaregood]

Woo ekky?

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Fearless Eklund

 

[The Nemesis]

...ok.

 

[bluefunnel]

Good kill.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Romanov telegraphs his puck play better than Georgiev so far.

Solid, excellent mechanics

 

[SJSharksfan39]

If that was goalie interference, couldn't it be argued that Burns caused it? What could Eklund do there?

 

[Pinkfloyd]

I don't see how that shouldn't count. Burns is the cause of the goaltending contact, the puck is in before the net comes off, and Carolina didn't have possession for the whistle at any point.

 

[Patty Ice]

I would have love to see Brind'Amour argue goalie interference

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

Willy Ek has to be one of the most underrated players in the league. I was so happy when he fell to 7.

 

[BobGoblinn]

Don't want to seem like I'm getting ahead of Cagnoni-criticism, but when everyone else on the ice is such garbage there's just no room to make any mistakes, huh?

I wonder how much our appreciation for how strongly Couture/Pavelski/Braun/Hertl/etc. looked was their flaws being papered over by great rosters.

maybe I’m just being optimistic but it hasn’t felt that bad?

Could just be hopium lol

 

[Patty Ice]

Thinking about it. I wonder if that is how Burns catches wild geckos.

 

[OrrNumber4]

The praise for Dellandrea does not match any test...

 

[TheBeard]

Team is making some great moves in the offensive zone.

I think for a 4th liner you could do a lot worse.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

Ecky is on one tonight and did Mack get demoted?

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

That was a f***ing sick deke from Eklund. If he would’ve finished that, that would’ve been a top 10 of the year goal.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

I think for a 4th liner you could do a lot worse.

He’s a better skating Todd Harvey

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Cagnoni seems to be doing all the work on this power play. The front is kind of letting him down.

 

[TheBeard]

What a dreadful PP.

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Wennberg setup perfectly and he shoots it into the goalie, a goal scorer he is not......

 

[Tw1ster]

Rough power play, Wennberg is at his best when he’s not trying to be Joe Thornton

 

[TheWayToRefJose]

Carolina’s PK is great. They’re super difficult to establish possession against.

 

[TheBigDrunkPanda]

No adjustment on the PP Carolina is stacking the blue line 4 across, dump and chase is the answer not turn it over high for an odd man rush
