GDT: Round 2 Game 3

[RandyHolt]

Hit on Willy should have been interference.

Should have been in for this game. Too afraid to change the lineup after a win

Damn straight.

Dowd does some dumb crap man. Loves penalties

 

[crab]

I’m not sure why they are highlighting the Martinook hit on Wilson as a great hit. Wilson wasn’t even close to the puck … haha come on

 

[Capsman]

Getting hemmed in like that was really inexcusable. Literally 2 easy opportunities to get the puck down ice and failed both. SC has his work cut out for him.

 

[RandyHolt]

It's Game conditioning. The guy was out for something like 3 weeks!

I saw 2 missed passes in the first but yeah 100% you are right he was off on a line change when we were pressuring.

 

[kicksavedave]

Pretty sure this post is to blame

I accept full responsibility. I'll be much more critical from now on. Won't happen again.

Leonard would not have made a difference to help scoring goals! Didn't score goals in the 1st. Canes are a different team coming from behind.

Yeah, that wasn’t the turning point of the game. Turning point of the game was Carlson getting exposed.

See you guys and gals next game. Oilers probably going up 3 in their series.

 

[RedRocking]

Jackson Blake, the most Carolina name ever

The third line was the most effective line they had tonight. Pointing fingers in the wrong places here.

I sure hope not. I deserve some hockey happiness today.

 

[Nice]

Classic uneventful weekend game. Win Monday

 

[SecretaryofDefense5]

An embarrassing effort. If you lose 4-0, you didn’t play well.

Carbery needs to change the lines up. They ain’t working.

 

[Empty Goal Net]

Breadeater cross-checked. Walker a dirty player. No need to do that up by 3.
edit: Oops, up by 4, but it doesn't matter.

 

[WanderingCapsFan]

Game was there for the taking for the first 30 minutes.

Need to win on Monday, and gotta score the first goal.

Be that as it may, I think it might be time to insert Leonard back in for Game 4.

Goal still remains the same. Just win one on the road. That hasn't changed.

Mix up the lines somewhat. Great fast start, but that 2nd half of the game shows that we need a little shakeup.

 

[Capsman]

I think you have to bring RL back next game. Not that I think he brings anything special at this point in his career, but at least to bring a little extra speed and someone who MIGHT break away.

 

[kicksavedave]

1-0, 4-0, 9-0, its all just one game. Forget it and win the next and we got a series.

 

[EroCaps]

They played their best game of the series, didn’t get the lead, and blinked. The second goal was the killer from Thompson.

Whatever.

 

[Calicaps]

That devolved quickly. The second goal was the killer.

 

[Langway]

Something something killer instinct.

1-0, 4-0, 9-0, its all just one game. Forget it and win the next and we got a series.

While this is true, I’d feel a lot better about a 4-0 game if the team didn’t just totally quit. Once it got to 3-0 they just didn’t care anymore, just try to flip the puck out of their zone in hopes the game would end.

I did not expect this group to have an effort/focus problem this deep into the playoffs. That last 30 minutes was troubling
