GDT: Preds @ South Edmonton 11/15/24 8PM Hey Theres Another Game Tonight Edition

[Bringer of Jollity]

Ducks are about to win so I believe that now makes us...dead last by points percentage?

 

[FlyerNutter]

And I can't help but feel that alot of it isn't even the players, its the coach trying to force a system that just isn't working.

As a Flyer fan primarily, it reminds me when Laviolette tried to force them to play such an up tempo game - and they didn’t have the legs, or horses for it.

Brunette has no idea what he’s doing. Why they were so aggressive with their pinches, or stretch passes on a back to back especially. Makes no sense.

Spending $108.5M in the off-season apparently DOESN'T buy you a completed pass on the powerplay.

Stamkos really is the worst player on the team right now, and it isn't close at the moment.

This is an example of sometimes it is better to take less money and stay in the place that is right for you than to chase a big pay check

Tied for second worst. A Montreal win puts us tied for worst.

We are tied with San Jose in P% and Montreal is the worst P%.

But San Jose has 1 fewer regulation win, so is closer to the bottom than we are.

And Montreal has a game in hand, so a win or "tie" and they leapfrog both San Jose and us.

As I posted earlier, if the season ended today this would be the worst Preds team of all time in terms of P%. Worse than the first year of expansion.

Lankinen awaits tomorrow.

Lankinen awaits tomorrow.

He can be the next guy to shut us out.

I like Del Gaizo only because he shares 50% of his name with my favorite quick serve Mexican restaurant

The more I watch Josi the more he reminds me of latter days Ellis

Angel Gaizo?

Going through and reading all the funny posts in this thread made me feel a little better about this team’s shittyness. Thanks to all who contributed!

Angel Gaizo?

I was thinking about what 50% meant. 8 letters, so pick 4 for 50%... Hmm.

Is there a restaurant named "Delg del Mar"? Or maybe "Aizo Taco"?

I should've commented at the time, but I was too busy cheering for the next whistle.

Surprisingly fun thread to catch up on after a shitty performance from the team.

The team could learn a lot about effort from this group.

Del Taco…

Del Taco…

I liked Naugles better.

Somebody bought the name and are opening again …. But it isnt very good.

Growing up in St. Louis they were a treat. After living in Houston for 30 years, I doubt I could stomach them today.

It does follow from 50%. Naugles. It seemed like a solid guess.
