GDT: Sens McClane vs. Van-Gruber, DIE HARD EDITION Live from Nuckatomi Plaza, 10:00PM EST, CBC/SPORTSNET/TVAS2

[HSF]

Serious question, if offered a do-over, do you take him over Tkachuk?

no not for our team

 

[Adrianopolous]

Serious question, if offered a do-over, do you take him over Tkachuk?

You might

 

[Gil Gunderson]

We'd be going into the 2nd with a 2-0 lead probably if Norris went for the loose puck right in front of him.

 

[Sens With Benefits]

Both goals were not on the goalie, relax. Canucks are bullying the d on the forecheck.

 

[Xspyrit]

need goaltending

Nah, need to stop making stupid decisions.

Kleven : unforced, not clearing the zone. Norris : just going by the puck for some reason

Jensen : instead of keep playing, wants to "defend" Chabot at the wrong time, creates havoc in our zone ---> goal

 

[Carl Karlsson]

Kleven really struggling this game and yeah, Meralainen is probably not an NHL goalie. I think we'll be hard pressed to win this one unless it ends up like 6-5 us lol.

Also think Norris looks terrible. If he can't handle or shoot the puck anymore, he's not especially good defensively these days.

I think Merilainen had some good saves. First goal not much and can do and second one he is screened. Maybe a bit early to say he's not an NHL goalie no ?

 

[Hinterland]

Honestly not blaming him on those goals. First one is on our D and Norris and second he was screened

Yeah, such breakdowns in front of the kid are unacceptable. Better defensive coverage needed, especially in the slot.

 

[Adrianopolous]

Everything looks like it might go in

 

[Cosmix]

Hope the coaches kick a few assess between periods.

 

[Sensrule]

Last time we played in Vancouver I think we were down 5-0 after one. That goal song will be stuck in my head.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

ffs...some of our guys need to hit the gym...weak

 

[Cosmix]

Yeah, such breakdowns in front of the kid are unacceptable. Better defensive coverage needed, especially in the slot.

Some of us have been saying this for YEARS!

 

[Puikiou]

One positive: What a play by Amadio on the 2nd goal. He never showed those hands in Vegas nor here (so far). It'd be huge for the team if he can find his offensive game.

One negative: Norris was a disaster in that 1st period.

 

[senswon]

I mean we're still in it on the road.
Our 2nd periods have been good lately hopefully we keep pressing them
Kinda was surprised nobody challenged whoever dropped chabot

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Chabot went down hard on that second goal against

Hope he is ok

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Would have just started Ullmark. They have 5 days off after Edmonton.

 

[Relapsing]

Late night sens hockey like:

Would have just started Ullmark. They have 5 days off after Edmonton.

Same. Very weird decision.

 

[HSF]

Nah, need to stop making stupid decisions.

Kleven : unforced, not clearing the zone. Norris : just going by the puck for some reason

Jensen : instead of keep playing, wants to "defend" Chabot at the wrong time, creates havoc in our zone ---> goal

2nd one should be a save

poor positioning

going 2-1 into the 2nd is not bad. Esp quick goals late

 

[Cosmix]

Chabot went down hard on that second goal against

Hope he is ok

I hope he wakes up and starts playing physically too. He has the skillset to do it. Just effing do it!

 

[Xspyrit]

Not scoring on the power play is hurting here.

Nah, everything was going on perfectly until Kleven decided to turn the puck over for no reason

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Still waiting for Brady, Batherson, Stutzle to do something without it being 3-on-3 OT.

 

[Sens With Benefits]

God the Vancouver ass kissing is almost as bad as a Leafs game, Jesus.

 

[Xspyrit]

Same. Very weird decision.

Green did that many times this season, like the 2 times he didn't go back to Forsberg after his shutouts

2nd one should be a save

poor positioning

going 2-1 into the 2nd is not bad. Esp quick goals late

Nah, the puck went through 5 bodies, the goalie most likely never saw it until the last millisecond

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Miller bulldozing his way to the net as Bieksa describes it.. interfered with Norris and interfered with Kleven. You can't just run through guys when they don't have the puck.

One positive: What a play by Amadio on the 2nd goal. He never showed those hands in Vegas nor here (so far). It'd be huge for the team if he can find his offensive game.

One negative: Norris was a disaster in that 1st period.

back to playing like a powder puff
