Post-Game Talk: Panthers at Blackhawks 11/21

[Gentle Man]

So am I taking crazy pills or do they have the exact same record as last year after 20 games?

Let's play a game, which season is which?

What are we freaking out about again?

Top is current season only because of the higher GAA

Losing 4 of 5 sucks. It's feeling mailed in. That won't work for too much longer.

- every time you step on the ice your goalie disappears
- you get called out for "bad play in your own zone"

I actually agree Tkachuk has been playing pretty well for the most part, and been unlucky. Last night, however, the second line looked terrible.

After all the legos I've bought, these are the results I am getting? I am returning all this shit then.

Time to find a new hobby. Time to start sculpting.

Well I’m going tonight, so sorry for this loss

I wonder if you’re gonna see the 2023-24 Panthers or the 2012-13 Panthers.

 

[batting1k]

Hell yeah

 

[PSLguy]

Swaggy down to the third line tonight, Loustar up to the 2nd line.

 

[KW]

Didn’t see those being the lines but at least there’s been a shakeup

 

[batting1k]

Ekfat back to PP1 as well

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Ekfat back to PP1 as well

Might as well, put that force into a clapper from the point. (Yes I know they won’t try)

Behold the power of Schmidty Balls

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

That's wild.

I know Verhaeghe kinda sucks eyetest wise atm. But way too early to say whether singing Verhaeghe longterm wasn't right.

Or at the very least, It's hard to justify signing Bennett over Swaggy longterm imo.

Verhaeghe has outproduced Bennett by at least 30 points the last 2 seasons.

But even if you dont think the production Verhaeghe provides is more valuable than what Bennett brings.

consider that Bennett missed more games last season than Verhaeghe has in the last 3. Verhaeghe has missed 11 games in the last 3 years. Bennett has missed 43. And we all know the Bennett type players don't tend to age as well either.

Maybe he will be an exception, but I think Zito made the right decision with the information available to him.

His effort level looks like I've cashed in, f*** it
