GDT: Red Wings@Canes

[Svechhammer]

Lol I cant even imagine thinking about talking about the goaltending when this team has this finishing ability right now?

Seriously?!

Our entire effort was poor. We went through the motions tonight and put too many lazy shots on net and didn't really make Ned work for his shutout. It's a well deserved result.

But make no mistake, that was a poor game from Raanta. Didn't impact the result tonight, but after this one I don't want to see him in a must win playoff game.

This schizophrenic team is going to kill me.

 

[To Be Determined]

unpopular opinion, but i don't care if we see that same ~30% effort for the remaining regular season games.

rest up, stay healthy, do enough not to get rusty. absolute worst case we're 3rd in the metro and get the pens or rags. i'm comfortable with those match-ups. if they can't turn it up in the playoffs to the level needed, they were never going to do anything anyway.

Also, the sputtering PP doesn't help on Corsi Canes nights.

Through 75 games, they're 19-16-5 when they don't score on the PP and 29-3-3 when they do.

It's time for Brind'Amour to scramble the units. It's just not working right now. Give everyone a different look and come back to the standard personnel if that doesn't spark it.

Its time for Svech-Aho-Turbo to come back

Which... if Necas was worth a shit this year is probably what we'd still be doing, but its real hard to ice a 2nd line of Jarvis-Tro-Necas and expect anything to get done.

Our ideal lineup is

SAT
Jarvis-Tro-Necas
Nino-Jordo-Fast
Martinook-KK-Domi

but the fact that both Necas and Tro are invisible right now kind of makes that impossible

 

[Daeavorn]

Were in trouble come playoff time if we cant generate offense when we need to

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Regular Season Under Brind'Amour

PPG(s) - 98-24-9
No PPG - 70-61-19

Post Season Under Brind'Amour

PPG(s) - 9-5
No PPG(s) - 8-12

I'll get around to comparing this to other teams across the league at a later time. In isolation, this pattern is terrifying.

I’m going to guess a lot of teams fare far worse when failing to score on the PP.

Yea, I mean if you can't score (or even generate shots) on the PP, you're probably struggling when even strength too

Good observation.

Challenge right now is that there is no break and with travel, limited practice time to tweak things.

Unfortunately, there is no - alpha scorer(s) on the team that can bring you through slumps and Aho-Tro have been dog shit lately.

Does anyone know what happened with the guy who got bodily carried out of the lower bowl by the cops? That was pretty far up there in the rankings of dumb fan moments at PNC.

Fight and resisting arrest, apparently

there is a video on reddit if you want to see some of the stupidity up close and personal

Hey ESPN+

Never ever come to Raleigh again.

I support this course of action.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

I support this course of action.

Apparently, going back to last year, the Canes are 1-13 when on ESPN+

Also, according to last night's broadcast, Bucchigross was the play-by-play for the 6-0 loss to Columbus, the 4-0 loss to Washington and last night's game. So he might be responsible.

 

[CanesUltimate11]

So based on last year and this year, Detroit is our new Tampa from several years ago. Doesn’t matter how either team is playing, the odds are good we’ll have a shit game and lose. Or maybe steal one on occasion.

Can you post a link to Reddit please so I can amuse myself?

Glad I missed Bill Peters night. At least we won’t face crap teams in the playoffs I guess

he doesnt have shoes on LOL

 

[Garbox]

Tro has been absolutely invisible since.... The new year? Given his pending UFA, we should be glad to let him walk at this point. He's a wasted body at 2C with his play of late.

Any chance he's a play off kinda guy? If so, then there would be a point in keeping him, but of course the cap situation is something to consider too.

 

[Canes]

Best part of last night.

But seriously, what the f*** is wrong with some people. I've been blackout drunk at sporting events mostly in my early 20s and never had the urge to be belligerent and fight people and I was like half this guys age.

Need to save your belligerence for the Bojangles parking lot.

 

[Chrispy]

I have to credit Pesce here.

Seeing security carrying bare feet out on the other side of the glass would have distracted me. But he played right by it.

Are you saying we should fight him in the back of a Bojangles parking lot?
