Kakko allergic to Gluten and the middle of the ice

 

[redwhiteandblue]

Is Sam on the Russian Gas? He’s been noticeably better this year albeit cheeky. Whole goddamn organization is buzzin

 

[will1066]

Kakko passed it off so fast

 

[Fitzy]

Schneider is a notably bad skater

 

[Machinehead]

it's 5 degrees in Canada...

how do all these rinks suck on this trip?

Ice melts.

We complain about this every night. I think we just need to adjust our expectations for ice sitting in a heated arena at 72 degrees.

 

[bl02]

off the top of my head Kreider scored on on the rush and Kakko with the cheap tap in but has the first line scored a legit goal ES?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Well played first period.

it's not 72 degrees in there.

@EdJovanovski confirm

 

[Captain Lindy]

Not a bad road period. I'll take it. Up 1-0. LGR

No

 

[Chaels Arms]

Kakko plays in real life like the old fogeys who play NHL 24 using the face buttons only because they never wanted to learn the skill stick. Just the most basic possible options are available for him.

No. They've had chances though. Not worried yet.

 

[Kodiak]

Not our best period, but I’ll take a 1-0 lead

 

[Kords]

Seeing a whole lotta complaining after a good period lol

Which is sad considering what he was when we drafted him.

Needs the confidence, the skill is still there. Can't take that away.

 

[Rangers in 7]

Definitely not our best period on this trip nor our worst

I’ll take the lead after 1 though

 

[DanielBrassard]

Thought that was a pretty bad period, outside of the one shift by the Trocheck line. Vancouver is pressuring hard and they are having trouble handling it.

New here?

 

[duhmetreE]

Maybe switch Kakko and Wheeler?

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Solid period. A bit annoying with the ice and officiating though.

Our team defense wasn’t bad but I felt like a few guys got walked individually more than we see over the course of a few weeks.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Furious pace on both sides of the rink.

Gotta keep this up with the Nucks playing back to back.

Looking for Kravstov I don’t see him out there

 

[bl02]

No. They've had chances though. Not worried yet.

8 games now. Tocchet putting his top pairing out against our real first line.

Thats what he looks like when hes playing.

 

[LOFIN]

Maybe switch Kakko and Wheeler?

f***ing no. Let's not. We just got rid of Gallant and someone here wants Gallant all over the lineup once again?

 

[Cmox]

From the tv view it seems like the ice is terrible.

Highly Noticeable
