GDT: Isles vs Jackets 7:30 ET

[GoJackets1]

Everyone was mishandling the puck tonight. Going to do my best to chalk it up to bad ice or something weird. We looked good in the last 10 minutes, Sorokin made some great saves and gave approximately zero second chances off rebounds.

Onto the next one, this feels like a burn the tape game IMO. That said, getting Monahan back will be huge.

I feel like blaming the ice 2 games in a row is a bit of an excuse. We struggle on the road. We have injuries. We maybe have some sickness. We might be getting worn down. Not everyone can be a star every night and it just sucks when it happens to everyone at the same time.

The rest of this week might be kind of rough with 3 more games over the next 5 nights and all against playoff teams right now.

I just hope the Isles goalie doesn't have his day against us.

I shouldn't have written this, as always the law of expediency intervened and my prediction came true.
