  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

    In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
The fact that professionals watch Hamonic play and keep playing him is insane to me

We even have a new analytics guy for god’s sake

Thats why I always laugh when people say yeahhh armchair gm. Country club up there of blind people
 
matinpalo was playing against the best players in the world in the 4 nations and looking good but with us he can't even crack the regular lineup

we're so stacked.

Three losses in the last four games.

Team just doesn't look desperate enough to make the playoffs. They run on adrenaline mostly but when the other team elevates their play they seem to quickly run out of it and lose their cool. No one should feel very confident they won't just run out of steam entirely and fall out of the WC race down the stretch.
 
Everything was around the perimeter

Pass the puck around a box until it gets to a guy who can't pass it off and has to shoot a muffin wide or into shinpads

Giroux put the puck into the middle and into the danger zones a few times in the 3rd, otherwise it was perimter passing.

They weren’t doing that pre 4 nations. They were playing calm and calculated.

They’ve completely abandoned that
 
Snow melted and his son was sad so he didn’t feel like playing probably
I mean, they dominated the scoring chances, this game is mostly on Forsberg, with an assist from Hamonic.

Expected goals was 5.5 to 1. 19.
dominated the scoring chances against……buffalo? Oh phew. Everything is alright.
But you’re right. When your goalie is forsberg there is basically no chance. When jbd can just softly wrist the puck from far out and beat you clean it’s tough t win
 
Dressing Hamonic is one thing but playing him 16 minutes tonight should be a felony

Between the diamond formation and the constant allowance of in-close chances on the PK which have been a massive deficiency with no adaptation all season, in combination with the reluctance to scratch Hamonic, Highmore, or Gaudette... I have to seriously question the intelligence and competency of Travis Green and Nolan Baumgartner.
