GDT: Unsolved Mysteries ep.4 (1.27)

[chaz4hockey]

Better than the 10% of fans that left the PNC arena after that goal. That's an oof.

Raises hand.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Imagine that..now they’ve got time

Canes legend Jeff Hamilton!

 

[Svechhammer]

Raises hand.

Same here

Had to get back for the babysitter and if we could shave 30+ mins off the running clock, it made sense. *Shrug* shit happens we laughed about it in the car.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

If Aho hadn’t scored before i could finish typing my disgust that we lost, I would likely have turned it off.

 

[Identity404]

Necas has been our all star all season. He belongs In that game. Not only has he been the most dynamic guy we have, he’s been clutch. The whole season imo. He wants the puck when it matters most. Good for him. Aho has been catching up as expected, but we wouldn’t be where we are at this point without 88.

It would have been awesome seeing him in fastest skater. Curious if he could beat McDavid.

 

[Discipline Daddy]

Didn't watch, but saw the highlights.

Aho looked absolutely dominant. That's the most important thing. Also, I don't get too caught up in losing to a bad team. All the teams are NHL talent, and it's not possible to have playoff effort for 82 regular season games over an 8 month season. I'm glad we found a way to win, and I'm also glad on our "off" effort games we still tend to look like we played a better overall game than our opponent.

 

[Borsig]

The sad thing is Svech hasnt scored since Christmas. Seriously. Necas is the all star, not Mr. cold streak

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Imagine that..now they’ve got time

The kids in that picture remind my of when my kids were young and I'd take them to games. Pure joy.

 

[The Faulker 27]

Aho looked dominant last night, but he should against one of the worst defensive teams in the league. Not trying to steal his thunder, he had a hell of a game just pointing that out.

If he's getting the apples for Necas, that's fine for now.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Necas is a horse. Svech gives him his apples and sugar cubes.

 

[Negan4Coach]

I watched it late last night on replay, turned it off after empty netter. Was very surprised this morning when I pulled this thread up. Like, "wait a minute did I watch a different game or what?" lol

 

[MadeUpName]

Looking at the development of guys like Jack Hughes, Tage Thompson and (to a lesser degree) Necas this year is interesting. They always had talent and showed it in flashes but decided to crank the confidence up to 11 and it just... worked?

 

[The Faulker 27]

Svech has always been a streaky player. He's still getting shots, they just aren't going in (and not as quality it seems). I think this might be his longest goal drought however. Last season he had a stretch of 11 games with no goals. Last night was 12.

 

[Neighbor Lee]

Reminds me of this game. I used to talk to this guy named Jerry who worked the doors at PNC pretty much every game, even if just to say hi. After this game, I asked him what happened to all the people that left the arena with 20s left and he said that they all came rushing back in after hearing the goal horn and they had no choice but to just open the doors and let them in.

The night I dedicated myself to the Hurricanes. 'Great to see it again

 

[CandyCanes]

Imagine that..now they’ve got time

Necas joined Hurricanes legend Jeff Hamilton, sick

 

[CandyCanes]

He’s been pretty dominant the last 10 or so games. 13 pts in his last 9. Not a bad stretch of hockey.

 

[VibesAlive]

Ha, I never leave. Mostly because of the that show last night.

What is implied in dedicating ones self to the Hurricanes?

Is it some sort of ritual? Does it involve eating Bojangles?

 

[Stickpucker]

Aho looks much faster out there the last few games. Even in OT Brady was trying to break away and Aho turned on the burners and caught up to him and almost shielded the dman from getting near Skjei to increase his 1v1...that or he thought he was even faster and was going to get wide to make it a 2 on 0.

You can tell he wants the puck a lot more too. I felt like in his early career Turbo really pushed him as he wanted to be seen as the "older brother" to TT and not the 2nd fiddle to the older Finn.

I'm starting to get the feeling Aho doesn't want to be outshined by Necas and might be trying to find another gear to show Necas this is his team.

 

[SvechneJerk]

A determined Aho is a beautiful thing to watch.

Svetch had a good game yesterday....hopefully he has turned the corner. He had a couple of thunderous checks and his interaction with Necas & KK was good. He of course made the great pass for game winner too.

And chicken fights

That's the thing about him. Even when he's not producing and he was last night, he's doing other things well. He never has an off shift really from an effort perspective. He's elite in that department.
