GDT: Game Day Thread: Friday, November Twenty Ninth, Two Thousand Twenty Four: National Hockey League Eastern Conference Number One Carolina Hurricanes (Si

Martin is trash and Burns is probably at replacement level right now. That's pretty much the difference in this game.

I said it earlier this month and will reiterate... If there is a way to keep Orlov after Nikishin comes over, do it. We need to be moving on from Burns

First bad game burns has had that I can remember this year. He has been good.

Canes FO % crap today at 36. Cats only 47% for the year so that’s worse.

 

[Borsig]

I dont think Burns is as bad as you all are squaling about.

The problem right now is Martin.

Martin was a problem in previous games as well. The team still found a way to win. Today, they don't have it.

Well you cant score f***ing 6 against the best teams in the league every night cannit?

 

[bleedgreen]

There is no real problem right now. Hard to maintain a torrid pace and we have had injuries. I’d rather finish hot than try to maintain hot all season. I thought we might be fighting for a playoff spot in the summer.

All is well.

Well, to be fair, both previous games this week were comeback wins. So, we’ll see I guess.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Meh. I don't see any sense in getting overly emotional. Game should be 1-1 at worst. They've been good about coming back. Hopefully, Spencer finds his game and the team goes to another level like we've seen.

I agree. But I am worried about our goalie situation long term with all the injuries. This individual game I could care less about.

And how

We wouldn't have to if we controlled the puck better. Even with Martin's shit play, two of the goals happened immediately after defensive zone turnovers.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I agree. But I am worried about our goalie situation long term with all the injuries. This individual game I could care less a about.

If Andersen gets hurt now and comes back in March, that’s 4 months of regular season that he can’t get hurt in a way that bleeds into the playoffs.

The real issue is we LET it be a problem. You could have jettisoned his sorry ass in the off season

Well our starter is injury prone and our 1A is starting to feel the same. It’s probably an off season issue and a little philosophy change on getting the best deal possible all the time. Which probably isn’t happening. Even if we picked someone up it would most likely be someone closer to Martin than to a starter.

 

[Borsig]

just get pushed around fishy. Let him push you all the way to the bench, why not

 

[LostInaLostWorld]

More concerned with somewhat lackadaisical play than goal tending

 

[chaz4hockey]

Canes are getting pounded. Better hit back or they will get hurt.

We’re conserving energy for tomorrow’s loss.

Yeah, I don’t think we’re solving a two-week problem in November with a multi-year solution like a Gibson.

Kochetkov is a guy for the future. We’ll replace Freddie with someone in the offseason. For this year, it’s about the playoffs, and as encouraging as this start has been, it’s ok to just stay near the front of the peloton until April. Don’t need to make a drastic change to ensure we don’t lose to Florida in late November.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Svech needs to step up

 

[Svechhammer]

Canes are getting pounded. Better hit back or they will get hurt.

So basically play like they never do or get hurt

 

[Borsig]

LOL NO CALL

 

[Svechhammer]

How is there no f***ing call there

 

[Wolfpuck]

Okay ref.

 

[Tryamw]

Lol that was a trip

 

[Unsustainable]

Refs decided no more calls
