GDT: Tampa Bay @ Carolina: One Last Monster Mash

[Zezima]

Imagine if Semin wanted to shoot half as often as Murphy does.

 

[Sasha Cares]

Wow. Pathetic. And why is it a good idea to put ruutu on the PP?

Tampa Bay does not look like a team with an 8-4 record

We don't look like a team with even one win.

 

[Zezima]

I don't think we look that bad. Okay forechecking just not a lot of chances.

 

[tomdundo]

Damn it, I wanted Tripp to do the PBP.

 

[Wolfpuck]

"I feel like I'm naked."

Seriously, Tripp, shut up.

 

[Zezima]

Damn it, I wanted Tripp to do the PBP.

Me too.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Actually, the PP looks decent lately.

 

[Wolfpuck]

what a **** show

 

[tomdundo]

Hey, Murphy knows how to defend a 2-on-1. Take notes, Harrison.

 

[Wild Caniac]

Murphy is getting better every game in every aspect.

 

[Zezima]

You can really tell E. Staal just wants to set up Semin. Even when they're on two opposite sides with two defenders between them.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Gudas for Tampa has made some subtlely dirty moves already.

Slammed Lindholm's head against the glass and almost took out Eric's knee on that powerplay.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Our second PP-unit is like...

 

[Zezima]

Our second PP-unit is like...

Yeah that first unit has been quite competent. Without Skinner our balance is really thrown off.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Our second PP-unit is like...

That's what it is. I was wondering how a power play could look competent, then suddenly fall to pieces.

 

[Sasha Cares]

Murphy is getting better every game in every aspect.

Very much so

 

[Lazyking]

That's not the first period of hockey you want to show to a new fan lol.

 

[tomdundo]

Faceoff stats (thus far):

Jordan 1/2
Eric 4/6
Lindholm 1/1
Nash 1/1
Malhotra 4/6

69% overall.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Gerbe "looks up to" St. Louis

I see what you did there, Chantel

 

[Zezima]

They're gonna milk the St. Louis connection for all that they can, eh

 

[Blueline Bomber]

An unscreened slapshot that the goalie easily rejects is a "world-class play", according to Tripp.

Have the standards for Canes fallen that far?

Yes, but keep in mind that it's Tripp we're talking about here.

 

[Zezima]

That's my problem with Murphy. He shows dynamic displays of skill that lead to nothing. That's just an experience thing I guess.
