[moiderer]

Silovs looks bad but the D is worse.

 

[VanillaCoke]

What a waste of an opportunity.

Not out of it but need a save and a defenseman to not play full numbskull

 

[Johnny Canucker]

[wonton15]

This team is embarassing

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Silovs is the 2nd best goalkeeper on the ice…At the NHL level,you gotta make a save

I’m having Spencer Martin/Delia vibes.

On the PP goal, Juulsen doesn't have great puck skills even just with his stick so I would prefer he body the guy in front and deny the tip. He's done this several times now.

Out defencemen don't know when to close down the lane and when to body or front the open man. It's not just Juulsen and Soucy, Myers has let many many passes cross crease and also left many net front guys alone.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Good ol Silvos

 

[GranvilleIsland]

Silovs is done.

 

[EpochLink]

Silovs is shit, bench his ass in the second period.

SICK AND TIERD OF THIS SCRUB, Why is he even a back up

 

[Bobby9]

Total breakdown of any system

 

[SiZ]

Silovs is playing his way into the AHL

 

[thecupismine]

What was Myers even doing there?

 

[Canucker]

Brutal coverage on that goal, Juulsen covering his weak side tells Soucy to cover the puck carrier, Soucy chases Rust all the way around the rink, shocking lack of discipline that is endemic to this d-corps. Shockingly Juulsen stops covering the net front and surprise, surprise no forward switches to Soucy's position and there's a wide open man.

This keeps happening, stop chasing guys above the hash marks to the blueline, this is an intentional tactic to push our defencemen out of position and then put the puck to the empty space that they would normally be covering. No idea why we keep doing this, and when I watch other teams almost nobody does it.

The "pressure" narrative is idiotic because that high forward is not in a dangerous position and hardly any opposing d-men are going to pinch in and leave that forward as the last man on half the blueline. It's pressure that doesn't close off shooting or passing lanes and can only put guys out of position or force switches that we don't want.

Garland was also in no mans land…he needed to collapse down further to help Soucy and Juulsen.

 

[Canuckle1970]

And we're still in the 1st period.

 

[Nucker101]

Silovs sucks but this defense is atrocious

 

[Lawzy]

I mean he ain't stealing us games but are people really blaming this on Silovs? This team is terrible all around.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Atleast the over was a complete no brainer

 

[Peen]

Second night of a back to back -- needed to be a game where we were up halfway through.

99% of the time you'd be fine to just turn the tv off at this point.

 

[vancityluongo]

crosby is such a perfect hockey player
