GDT: Game 70: Columbus vs. Detroit | 3/17 7PM EDT

Not sure why Savard Jones was a pairing at the end there. Savard whiffed on the rush twice. Maybe keep him on his right side?

he's scored a couple coming down the left side since he moved over there. that was probably the fluke though.

This game seems to be played at different speeds depending on the lines...

 

[major major]

I'm all for experimentation Torts, but maybe give Bjork a practice on the powerplay before throwing him out there?

Those goals were just fourth man in, he wasn't actually playing LD back then.

 

[major major]

Foligno looking good.

 

[Doggy]

Boring game

 

[KlichkoBro*]

Foligno was alone against 2 defensemen and still was able to create that scoring chance for Hartnell.

 

[major major]

Foligno's created all our best scoring chances.

 

[EspenK]

Boring game

Yup. Getting to the point I'm wondering why am I watching?

 

[Igright]

Boring game

Still in the 2nd period it was better than in the 1st.

 

[MAHJ71]

First game I've been legit bored. Yikes..

 

[aRussian]

The youngsters all need to work on their poise... They make mistakes when pressured. (I missed first period so this is just going on 2nd)

 

[aRussian]

Bob stops initial, Z alone for rebound

 

[We Want Ten]

Eh, whatever.

 

[Cowumbus]

No life

 

[We Want Ten]

Lots of blind no look passes, ugh.

 

[KJ Dangler]

Time to call Korpi back up

 

[GoJackets1]

Time to hop in the believe tank!

 

[aRussian]

I like the games where we play 40 minutes. Gives us something to look to for a bit, then gives us what we expect.

 

[Fireball23]

Time to call Korpi back up

Was thinking the same thing. The kid played ... they won. Maybe the played better in front of him since he's young inexperienced were as with Bob being back. They think he can save the world if they mess up.

 

[S1N4TR4]

Snoozefest x3938.

 

[MAHJ71]

Yikes. Hate to see how much uglier this gets for Bobrovsky as the season closes..

 

[We Want Ten]

So screens, deflections, and weird bounces aren't valid excuses for goals now?

 

[aRussian]

Quick question: Now that we are looking at "the future", is anyone here thinking that the magic "maturity" will happen for all the players for next year?

Only potential I see is Bjork from our recalls. Ram could be a Prout to me. Doubt he becomes a top shutdown D. Chaput? A name.

Wenn, Jones, Murray? I see Wenn and Jones. Murray seems to tread water (still on the borderline)

So screens, deflections, and weird bounces aren't valid excuses for goals now?

No. Only when Korpi is playing.
