GDT: We are the masters of our own destiny

[Wolfpuck]

I'm not even booing. Just silence.

 

[SliceNDice92]

We can all do ourselves favors and just return tomorrow night because the canes of old have returned

 

[Negan4Coach]

I hope when they get to the room, if there is a blackboard, Rod punches it and it splits in two like my football coach did in high school once during halftime,

 

[The Faulker 27]

Y'all have a good night gents. Don't let it unravel you too much.

 

[CaniacSZN]

Welp that’s a gg for tonight. Hopefully the Ducks and Pens can help the Canes out.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

Sebastian heard that Laine has -20 and decided to show that he can do it too.

 

[DougieSmash]

Thats literally the worst possible time for this loss.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Aho’s line shouldn’t play another shift.

They’re the only line that decided this game didn’t matter.

Not another second.

 

[Jerk Newton]

I'm at the game. Between the other game I've been to this season and this, the Canes have given up 10 goals.

The takeaways:
1) I'm bad luck for the team.

2) I'm going to stop coming to games, both for the sake of our playoff chances and my sanity.

 

[Crazydounut]

If they arent bag skating tomorrow morning (even with a game tomorrow). I'll be livid

 

[Wolfpuck]

The good news: There's still 40 minutes.

The bad news: There's still 40 minutes.

 

[HisIceness]

I hate the damn Jets. Ever since they left Atlanta beating them is hard. #bringbacktheThrashers

 

[CaniacSZN]

According to Moneypuck the Hurricanes had the edge in xG that period. (.86 to .83) The bad news is according to them they only have a .02% chance of winning this game.

 

[DougieSmash]

No way we take something tonite, its over

 

[Bladerunner]

Don't know if anyone has pointed this out in this GDT.
While it doesn't look good in this one, the Canes have an excellent chance to make the playoffs. Currently 87.3% at sportsclubstats. A loss will drop the chance to low 80s.

Nevertheless a strong "probability" playoff drive from the depths of early Jan (under 5%) !

Meanwhile Caps playing down to their opposition tonight. They play up and they play down - more of a Jekyll and Hyde team than usual

 

[Wolfpuck]

Might as well leave Mac in. We need Mrazek fresh for tomorrow.

Son of a bitch, this is a wasted opportunity.

 

[A Star is Burns]

Not even going to bother freaking out. Just hope they put in better effort the rest of tonight and come out with their hair on fire tomorrow.

 

[HisIceness]

Might as well leave Mac in. We need Mrazek fresh for tomorrow.

Son of a *****, this is a wasted opportunity.

Pretty much have no choice.

Too bad we still have to play 40 more minutes.

 

[Ole Gil]

Curious to see how they start the 2nd.

 

[AD Skinner]

everybody keeps talking about playoffs like its a foregone conclusion and they come out playing like this- coincidence?

 

[My Special Purpose]

This one is puzzling to me, but I guess when you've been playing with no margin for error for so long, eventually you're going to slip off the edge.

But still, Aho and Niederreiter minus-4, Pesce and Williams minus-3, Slavin and Faulk minus-2 and Hamilton minus-1.

I guess some regression was to be expected after how hot we've been, but I wasn't expecting this.

 

[My Special Purpose]

If they arent bag skating tomorrow morning (even with a game tomorrow). I'll be livid

Really don't understand how this helps anything.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Really don't understand how this helps anything.

It doesn't. Mad gon b mad.

 

[A Star is Burns]

The only encouraging thing is they've laid a few eggs during this stretch and have typically responded well.

They can use a good ass whipping so they don't forget what got them here.
