My boy Ray just vanished, he's happy Dcat is the spacegoat tonight.
Wow, I watched a different game than y'all did. Other than a couple of WTF moments that led to the goal I thought this was a very even and fun game to watch. Result sucked, of course.
From four years ago. Not sure what that's supposed to mean. Yeah, he's still good but Nashville plays well defensively as a team. You can't be good defensively unless it's a collective mindset.It's almost like we played against a Norris trophy winner or something
Oh, I'm just saying Nashville is a tough team to play against. They're pretty stingy defensively. It seems like some posters were thinking we should be lighting them up or something.From four years ago. Not sure what that's supposed to mean. Yeah, he's still good but Nashville plays well defensively as a team. You can't be good defensively unless it's a collective mindset.
And to give up that goal with multiple opportunities to clear. Not clutch.Agreed. Which makes it such a tough loss.
It was a hard fought game and the Wings were hanging right there with the Preds for much of it.
The Yotes did the same thing to them, so...Preds D is just suffocating. Great job keeping the play to the outside, and so often it felt like they would cancel the play out immediately and move it out.
There's truth to that. Should have taken care of that businessThey'll need to beat tough opponents like Nashville to make up for getting ass raped by Arizona in two games.
Did you even watch the game? Czarnik was very good tonightWhy in the hell is Austin Czarnik (one point all year) playing over Daniel Sprong?
And to give up that goal with multiple opportunities to clear. Not clutch.
Yes. There are rarely just one mistake that leads to a goal against.Fischer losing the puck is one of those bad plays that suck but happens. Then there were several other chances to recover that got blown.
The musical chairs at goalie has hurt Detroit. Lyon was good today but having a reliable #1 goalie is a big advantage for Nashville. Also, having a great #1 defenseman. Seider is not in Josi's league right now.I look at the preds defense and it shouldn't be so much better than ours. But it is.
Like yeah they have an elite goalie, but do you feel goalie'd today? No.
Josi elite no doubt
Mcdonut old but still solid
Carrier ok
Schenn uh ok
Barrie uh huh
Del Gaizo who
Seriouslymaybe bump Debrincat up to the first line so that he's not trying to pass it to Kane every time he touches the puck
Petry had a chance to clean the zone.I do not like compher playing with Kane. It never works consistently.
Honestly besides the one shift in the 3rd it was a good game against a team that is the hottest in the league. Can't fault the boys for the effort.
One thing I noticed lots this game offensively was that often someone will wrap the puck around the boards in the O zone and it's either with too much force and a teammate can't get it or not enough force and a teammate can't get it. It hurts the cycle game.
Lastly this game shows that petry should 100% be sitting once walman is back because he was not very good tonight and Ed was a beast for a few shifts in the 3rd with his defending. Strong game from him overall again with a couple mistakes but a lot more good. He definitely makes this team better.
93 12 games and countingCan't score when 93, 88, 23 are having an off game and 71 has the flu. Was JT under the weather also, his face offs were not good and he usually is a lot better. Can't win them all. Need more than 23 shots
PetryYup. though honestly it's a miracle the puck stayed out of the net on that made scramble where everyone piled in the crease.
Fischer losing the puck is one of those bad plays that suck but happens. Then there were several other chances to recover that got blown.
