Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 End of 1st. No score. Wings said they need to be ready to play right from the opening faceoff. They were not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 Bernier stole that period.. need to wake up and come out firing in the 2nd. 5 shots isn't gonna cut it. 2 puckloo39 and Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get that Blashill cares more about quality than quantity. But, I mean, tell me how many of those 5 shots were "high-quality" shots. You can't get outshot by a 2:1 ratio every night and think you're going to magically win a whole lot of games. It'd be one thing if we had solid special teams and solid goaltending, but we don't. We literally have everything working against us, and we want to be cute with shot attempts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 I'm a big fan of just throwing junk on net and seeing if you get lucky with a rebound. Goals are goals if they are ugly or pretty. I'd rather see them grind around the front of the net, toss some pucks on the goalie and see what happens. Get the goalie into it a bit, get him working. It's his first start of the season I think they said, he's gotta be at least a little nervous. Test him. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's his first start of the season I think they said, he's gotta be at least a little nervous. Test him. That's another thing that's been bugging me -- net presence. This season's team doesn't get to juicy rebounds. Doesn't happen. Never the first man to that puck, always just a step or two late to it. It's actually kind of incredible. (Hopefully they make me look really stupid for saying this.) 1 MabusIncarnate reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 lol @ 1.5 million too much for a backup goalie. How much is Bernier getting? Man, Hughes is quick Miles Wood is a porn star name not a hockey name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 See look at that, bad angle, Nielsen just tosses it on net, rebound results in a good scoring chance. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) FS-D showed a replay of the play that probably hurt Mantha. A little knee-on-knee thing. Could be a minor thing, but knees are weird.
