GDT: Gravy Boat Armada (sens) vs Islanders, 5:00PM EST, TSN5

[DylanSensFan]

Pinto with 0’s again and -1.

I am not sure what's wrong with the kid.

 

[Relapsing]

Win

Oh no, that would be too much

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

4sberg is tossed salad

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Last time this happened, they went in to lose 5 straight. No more moral victories

They need to come back strong. Of course.

But I want to the guys hating on this performance to just state like 2-3 ways they could have done differently?

 

[Korpse]

The goalie’s job is still the shooter. Even on the PK.

That’s far too simplistic, especially with how goaltenders play today.

 

[PlayOn]

I am not sure what's wrong with the kid.

He’ll get one soon. He’s looked much better of late, just snakebitten.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

NYI are the definition of a rope a dope team...they just let Sorokin do all the work and capitalize on the 5 or 6 chances they get in a game..

Don’t think they got 6 serious chances tonight

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Are you suggesting they'll lose 5 straight?

It’s not out of the question.

 

[NyQuil]

That’s far too simplistic, especially with how goaltenders play today.

As soon as Palmieri received the puck, Forsberg has to come out.

He froze and sat there deep in his crease and gave him the corners.

 

[UglyPuckling]

We had the advantage in zone time, shots & chances, but Sorokin made the saves. Islanders get a PP and capitalize. That was the game.

 

[SensFanInMTL]

Who else do we hire? Honestly, we need a backup goalie who isn't going to single handedly lose us the game. We also need a team who has the instinct to score on the PP and keep it out of our net on the PK.

To be honest, fire all staff. The PP staff is absolute shit. I feel like whichever goalie we trade or sign for will just bury himself because of us being a goalie graveyard. Rid of Chabot. Have Yakemchuk make the team out of camp. Cannot bear Hamonic much longer.

 

[Relapsing]

It's a good test to see if they learned their lesson from last time.

The fact that they played this well is good news. Let's hope they keep it up. If they do, they'll win alot more than they lose.

 

[DylanSensFan]

He’ll get one soon. He’s looked much better of late, just snakebitten.

I thought for sure he'd have one tonight.

 

[swiftwin]

We're again below .500 and you're suggesting this was a good game? This was a complete disappointment of a game. This team needs to learn to finish. We also need a back-up goalie who doesn't lose it for us on 12 shots.

Yes, this was a good game. If they keep playing like this, they'll win alot more than they lose. Deal with it.

 

[SensFactor]

Don’t think they got 6 serious chances tonight

Yah you are right, they won with 3 or 4 real chances...

 

[NyQuil]

Yes, this was a good game. If they keep playing like this, they'll win alot more than they lose. Deal with it.

The problem is when we don’t keep playing like this and we waste the opportunities like tonight when we play like this.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Yes, this was a good game. If they keep playing like this, they'll win alot more than they lose. Deal with it.

Dude, they didn't win tonight and they are sub .500. I keep hearing this idea that if they play like this they'll win more than they lose... they didn't play a full 60mins and our goalie barely played 12. I don't see them winning when they play like this. I see them losing. The PP was meh tonight. The PK was even worse

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I a little annoyed by the BS call on Norris followed by ignoring Tkachuk get high sticked shortly after, but we need to be better and kill that penalty, it's one thing if they beat you with a great play, but frigging Jensen and Chabot got confused and just handed them a great scoring chance, while Forsberg sat as deep in his net as possible.

We need Zub back and we need to move on from Forsberg asap

Great scoring chance is a massive overstatement. That’s it a great chance. That’s a chance. That every team gets basically every game.

 

[Micklebot]

I wish they'd waive Forsy and call up Leevi

Might be a bit early for that but I have very little confidence in Forsberg lately, he hasn't had a good game since his shutout against seattle

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Dude, they didn't win tonight and they are sub .500. I keep hearing this idea that if they play like this they'll win more than they lose... they didn't play a full 60mins and our goalie barely played 12.

The sens didn’t plays a full 60? Where. When.

 

[SensHulk]

Are you suggesting they'll lose 5 straight?

I’m suggesting it’s entirely possible with how fragile this team has shown itself to be. Hopefully they don’t…

 

[Gil Gunderson]

They can’t win 3 in a row.

 

[swiftwin]

The problem is when we don’t keep playing like this and we waste the opportunities like tonight when we play like this.

I agree. That's why it's important that they keep playing like this. Focus on the process, not the result.

 

[PlayOn]

On a happier note, Timmy and Batherson were both unreal tonight.

It’s fun watching how far some of this core has come. Timmy, Norris and Batherson’s 200 ft games have grown so much.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Yah you are right, they won with 3 or 4 real chances...

Even questionable. Maybe 2? Like legit the 3rd goal was a chance. That’s it. Forsberg did not make a good save all night
