Low Effort GDT LA Kings vs. Ottawa Senators (RDS2, TSN5)

[GCK]

I need a better replay on that 2nd LA goal before blaming Forsberg. 1st LA goal was los to high and a great shot.

 

[JackieDaytona]

MacEwen, Hamonic: thanks but no thanks. Go eat some egg rolls, you’re not needed on the bench.

 

[Xspyrit]

You could see the bias building up against Chabot. Read some comments about his shot at the end of PP, then I see the action and there was a Kings stick in there...

I'm sure looking forward to having both Hamonic and JBD in the lineup.

Time to throw back my famous " Who could have seen it coming?™ "

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I didnt think it was that bad a period. Tough break on the 2nd goal. Looks like they are battling well, good gaps standing up at the blue line. Still winnable

Overall a decent period but with Forsberg in net they're going to have to play harder.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

2 goals in our last 6 periods if you’re not counting the Stu empty netter.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

There was zero pressure on him.

All he had to do is back up with the puck and maintain possession.

Instead he just handed the puck back to the opposition.

Oilers of the 80s were good for that...have a change while one guy held onto the puck, then pass up to the fresh player off the bench. Was fun to see. Don't see it happen much these days, just dump and change.

It's not bias against Chabot, it's multiple seasons of him playing subpar hockey. There might have been a stick which got in the way of his shot, but this doesn't mean he hasn't been the muffin man out there for years now.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

We play rest of the game like that or better and we win the game.

We are far faster than this LA team and more talented. Feel like that 3rd line about to breakout against LA; they're feasting on their matchup.

Gaudette only played 3 mins that period, no pk or pp time. Not sure he will work out on the 4th line if Green doesnt use him

 

[Micklebot]

Good period if it wasn’t for the blind ass goalie we keep icing

We really seemed to have edge in play, Forsberg needs to have that 2nd goal though

 

[Micklebot]

Well with MacEwen in the box for 7 mins that period it's hard to get your 4th line out

 

[Burrowsaurus]

How about Jacques Martin, Bowness and Steve Staios, does their decision to select Green get the benefit of the doubt?

Who the f*** is Steve staios lol. Hired himself as GM his owner is his friend.

Bowness was AGM during terrible years.

We don’t know how much Jacques wanted green.

But. Travis green has them playing very well in the first period here. Let’s see where this goes.

 

[RedWhiteBlackGold]

That was a nasty hit on Zub, hope he good.

 

[SENATOR]

1 blocked shot to King's 10.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Get the feeling he'll be out week-to-week with that hit. Zub's head is unfortunately rather fragile at this point.

Yeah looked bad. Was a clean hit tho, he got caught looking.

 

[Wondercarrot]

1 blocked shot to King's 10.

Pro tip: It’s because we had the puck the whole f***ing time.

 

[Boud]

Gaudette only played 3 mins that period, no pk or pp time. Not sure he will work out on the 4th line if Green doesnt use him

I feel like Green wanted to reward Gaudette for his pre-season but deep down he knows Gaudette is not a 4th line player and it won't work out.

 

[SensFactor]

JBD better be ready to fill in

 

[Burrowsaurus]

1 blocked shot to King's 10.

Well kings have barely been in our zone? What shots do you want us to block they’ve done zero

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Happens every year across the league

Let’s see if green an eliminate the second period woes that DJ had. Jacques had us playing really good second period hockey.

JBD better be ready to fill in

Ohhhhh boy.

Shattenkirk come on down.

 

[GCK]

It was a dirty hit.

Well, I was talking about one single play... which confirms the bias.

I know Chabot hasn't been the same the last 2 seasons (he was playing elite hockey in 2021-22) but like it was for Stu last year, it has a lot to do with injuries and also having been stuck in this mess of organization. It's not easy to play on a bad team for years and years, it takes its toll.

If this team keeps doing the same thing, I am good for trading everybody except Sanderson, Stutzle, Tkachuk, Pinto, Greig and Yakemchuk. If this team doesn't progress substantially this season (playoffs or not), we need to RETOOL

Shattenkirk come on down.

That would be a smart signing.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Not a Forsberg fan but can't really blame the 1st one (PPG) on him ; no one covered Fiala in the slot. The 2nd one changed direction off Lewis's body right in front of him.

Sens not much puck luck had a big edge in play in the 1st. Now they have to stick with it something they have yet to do.

Claire giving warm welcomes to new players coming in could convince a couple UFAs to come our way.
