GDT: Hurricanes @ Penguins 10/8/13 7:00PM

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I see. game #3 and the sunshine and lollipop brigade from last game is quickly replaced by doom and gloom regiment.



You guys are so predictable.

Well we did terrible in a whole 1/3rd of our season.

 

[Joe McGrath]

I called him to be the one out when Gleason comes back.

That's not hate, that's common sense.

 

[Unsustainable]

Props to the mods for the quick clean up.

 

[Datsyuk Prospect]

Gerbe.

I think he has earned a spot with this team.

Not only that, but for the price we're paying him? It's a steal.

 

[Unsustainable]

That's not hate, that's common sense.

Hmm. True.

 

[HisIceness]

THIS is Carolina Hurricanes hockey.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Don't worry guys, we've always been a fourth quarter team

 

[Wild Caniac]

Half of the team gave up after the Jussi GAG. Terrible effort. Gerbe, Skinner, Faulk were our 3 stars imo.

 

[Unsustainable]

I wasn't big on Gerbe at the start (coming off of a horrid injury), but I give the little ball of fury credit.

 

[tomdundo]

Somebody get a YT up of that Ward series of saves, please.

 

[cptjeff]

Well, they better play better Thursday.

Sekera I think played a bit better then Faulk, but that is a legit top pairing D.

 

[HisIceness]

Well, they better play better Thursday.

They probably won't.

 

[AD Skinner]

Sekera I think played a bit better then Faulk, but that is a legit top pairing D.

Nobody after that can really handle second pairing minutes though.

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

Me too. Buffalo's spare parts are working out well so far.

 

[cptjeff]

Somebody get a YT up of that Ward series of saves, please.

It amazes me. One moment he's doing spectacular stuff as good or better than what anyone else in the league can do, and the next moment he's completely out of it on that faceoff goal.

Ward didn't have a great game tonight.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

3 hours ago I considered us the Cup favorite.

Now? We'd be lucky to win another game. Sell the farm.

 

[cptjeff]

They probably won't.

My ticket ain't refundable, so they better!

[w e l o s t b o y s]

As pissed as I am, you have to realize that we lost to one of the best teams in the league. They didn't play great but they also had some bad bounces against them. Just deflating to think that the game was tied in the third and it so quickly fell out of reach.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

My ticket ain't refundable, so they better!

In that case, they REALLY won't.

Why in the WORLD did we get rid of Dan Ellis?

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I think it's pretty clear that we can put this one squarely on the Ruutu-Ladd trade. Ladd's a captain. Why did we trade a captain for a guy with only one hip?

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Only watched the first, but from what I could tell, he kept the team in the game until the Penguin's offense became too much.

So a pretty typical game for Ward and the team

 

[Novacane]

He has a hip???

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

At times like these, can't help but look back at the Paradis draft pick.

That single-handedly set this team back about 5 years.
