Midnight puck drop on the east coast.

Byfield put up 55pts last year looked great in pre-season but he has that Joel Armia stat line what happened

This is another one worth skipping for me. I read some of the posts from the GDT, and it seems that even though we won, the effort level was the same. They won't be as lucky against the Kings if they don't get it together. I realize the team is thin on talent, but the drop-off in competition level is noticeable. Twenty shots against the San Jose Sharks, wow.

Same type of thing that's happening to Slaf this year. Teams watch your tape over the year and figure out what your tendencies are, what you do, etc and start implementing plans to shut those things down. It's then up to the player to adapt.

Slaf is at the same .6 ppg pace Byfield was .7 ppg and now .5. Kempe/Fiala production also dropped. I think they changed the 1-3-1 for 1-2-2?

Couldn’t recover from the PLD loss

 

[Skip Bayless]

Imagine staying up just to watch them get demolished.

I'll probably do that shit.​

Yup, they gave up Pielle and the 131

 

[badfish]

I said I woulnt watch last night but I did. I think I'll have a much lower tolerance for poor play tonight though.

 

[habdynasty]

930 start. Not bad.

 

[BigDaddyLurch]

...watching, of course...mostly cuz I don't sleep much anyways...

 

[waitin425]

Ill be drooling, snoring, farting and will probably stop breathing several times as I drift into deep sleep before this game even starts.

If they play like last night, they are not winning that's for sure.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Let's see if i can keep my streak going. I said win last night, so tonight will be a....



Loss is my guess.

B2b definitely a loss. Lucky to even win last night vs the worst team in the league

When they play 7pm eastern I usually miss the 1st period from work, then half watch the 2nd and 3rd while I'm making supper.

It's actually been a blessing. When it's at 7pm my time, I have no distractions and I have to watch the whole game..
