GDT: High Effort GDT

[smi]

Now that's embellishment

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Well...

A comeback in the third would be huge here. But given recent trend I doubt it happens.

 

[Anton Babchuk]

The good news is that Peters has a one-way contract next year, so there's a good chance he'll be our back-up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why? You seriously made me a little depressed.

So, I'll set the over/under for Ward starts at 75.

 

[Identity404]

Pavelec vs Peters has been the difference in this game.

Rebound control, to be specific.

This. Peters looks like a third string goalie tonight. Not surprising since he went so long between games...

 

[MD]

hoping for a bunch of 3 point games tonight so we can keep moving our way to the bottom

 

[HisIceness]

It doesn't matter how good or bad the other teams PK is, we'll make it look good.

I mean if Florida's PK could get numerous shorthanded chances against our PP......

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

The good news is that Peters has a one-way contract next year, so there's a good chance he'll be our back-up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Or be systematically sent through waivers and called up until someone takes him off our hands...

 

[Anton Babchuk]

Drayson Bowman, Jeremy Welsh and Kevin Westgarth also have one-way contracts!

 

[DougieSmash]

How cursed is this franchise after all? We finally add two fine and top players in Semin and Jordan... and we still can't win the worst division in the history of the game.

Rutherford needs to wake up and trying to make some moves.

Good for them. I'd love to make NHL money playing in the AHL or sitting in the pressbox

 

[tomdundo]

This team needs a guy like Callahan or Backes. Desperately.


Or maybe two.

I agree. They should have mortgaged the future for Douglas Murray

Me too.

Maybe he looks like a third-string goalie because he is one.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Or maybe two.

You mean guys that are actually willing to fight for the puck?

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

As you wish.

Chip Alexander ‏@ice_chip
Jokinen, Wallace have been placed on waivers by Canes.

 

[Identity404]

No ****... But he has played pretty well to this point...

 

[vwg*]

Tonight is the night Washington finally ties or passes us, the games in hand don't really matter as long as Peters is our starter and we're scoring a goal a game

 

[tomdundo]

You mean guys that are actually willing to fight for the puck?

Yeah, basically.

Guys who'll give it their all on a shift, then come back and follow it up with the same the next shift.

Guys who will stand up for their teammates and exert true leadership and grit.

Guys who can be relied upon to make a difference in games when they don't factor in on the scoreboard, but still have the ability to chip in at a good offensive clip.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Fun fact: If we don't score in the third period, we've scored 1 goal in 5 straight games!

What that means: We haven't been shut out in at least 5 games!

 

[Anton Babchuk]

The 4th line has five hits tonight, so Eric Staal should be scoring a goal in the third due to this wearing down of defensemen

 

[tomdundo]

I think I hate John David Custom Clothier more than I hated "Slap puck goal". Or the Progress Energy Power Play. Or how my brother and dad love to play their sports. Or how my mom is going to eat tonight and enjoy it. Or...
