Early second period Kravtsov down in a heap behind the net came flying back on the back check dove to break up an odd man rush and slid backwards into the boards full speed. I think he’s ok.

but he’s gotten roughed up a couple times today. Took a couple sticks and a bad hit last game too
 
Ebert is pretty talented. Always come away thinking that. Playing with Rykov they’ve really played well together.

Kravtsov back out there doesn’t miss a shift but on the way back to the bench looks a bit sore

Jones centering Beleskey and Gropp is an interesting line. I like the way both Gropp and Jones have played lately. Been good again here
 
Kravtsov just does so many of the little things well. Great outlet pass not afraid to go to the net to look for tips. Just a really smart two way player.

Rykov just Tony Ded a guy at the blueline gets to the middle ice and shoots a weirder that’s blocked but it looked like a really confident move and shot. 10 mins to go
 
By the way Skarek in net here for the Sound tigers in the second period. Kind of an interesting goalie prospect in his draft year. Good size.

Bodie Wilde is out here too. Looks like crap. Lumbering. I wanted him was surprised he fell but doesn’t look very good. I’d take Keane over him all day. I definitely take miller and lundkvist over him all day long.

Pack have an ability to melt games like good teams do. When they get a lead things really slow down whistles scrums pucks getting deep. No one really runs around all 5 guys in the picture.

First sustained pressure from the SoundTigers in this period comes with 4 mins to go. No shot actually hits the net and the Pack clear. Then Jones draws a pp using his speed driving to the net.

You probably meant to "ice" games, right? Otherwise, in the past regimes HWP had very difficult time protecting a lead, even when it was a sizable one too.

no I meant melt the clock. Keep things quiet clock keeps ticking away not necessarily add that goal that puts a team away. Just manage to keep things very quiet no big surges. Don’t give any opportunities to give the opposition momentum Just melt the clock

For instance we’re about 10 mins Thru this period and nothing has happened. We aren’t turtling we just carry pucks into the corners. Our guys straight directly into the opposition corners and hold pucks, 5 guys in the picture again no one running around. Everything to the outside. Great gaps, standing up at the lines, getting whistles, scrums, anything to slow the game down to a crawl. Leave very little chance for the tigers to get any momentum.

The levels of our forecheck are just so crisp. Guys circling even without too much pressure it’s just extremely well executed.

oregan actually takes a dumb penalty here trying to do to much to keep a puck in the offensive zone. Maybe opens a door here for the soundtigers

nope Ladd takes a penalty right away lol
 
And by the way Kravtsov is totally bought in on it. I’ve been incredibly impressed wirh his two way game. When he’s not scoring he’s doing everything he’s supposed to do on the defensive side of the puck. Very responsible. This is one of those games. They just are playing it very systematically. No one taking any big chances here. Every puck deep either carried deep (mostly) or softly dumped into corners

LoVerde takes a dumb one with about 8 mins to go. Think he grabbed a guy unnecessarily.

Again Maybe this gives The sound tigers life they’re 0/3 on the pp
 
We hold the line so well that part of that melting the clock is whistles. We cause so many offsides with how we hold the blueline. That’s by design and completely the opposite of what’s going on in NY where we back up to the circles all day on zone entries.

I said the other day someone will give Ebert (and Raddysh) a cup eventually, he's pretty good. Not an NHL regular but he'll play some games.

I figured we'd take a goalie in that draft and Skarek was the one I wanted. Annunen is looking like the best so far. Oh and we have Lindbum.

Aho fires one from the point and Ladd tips it home right at the end of this PP with about 5 mins to go. This is literally like the only way Shesterkin gets beat ever. It’s literally got to be unstoppable. 3-2 it’s basically another perfect game from him.

man what a play by Gropp racing down the right wing chips around dman gets to it sets up Beleskey cross crease looking for the HatTrick just misses.

Pack continue to stand guys up at the line this time geertson flattens someone 3 mins to go

grear shift here by the Kravtsov lone sustaining pressure kill a minute in the offensive zone

PACK hang on 3-2 win didn’t give up a shot after that goal. No panic.

Honestly when we fire Quinn and we will if we don’t decide we need an nhl coach wirh experience and go and hire a DeBoer or Laviolette (if he becomes avail) Knoblauch with Murphy should seriously get consideration.

I don't think they fire Quinn for at least another year but if the defense continues to look like a tire fire they might do something
