hit to head, falls straight back 

You don't think there's a difference between the hits? One was from the side, the other is from dead in front of him.

Baumer.

 

Let him practice what he preaches.

Did anyone expect us to win with this defense?  Its not coaching.  Its the personnel on the backend.  We have 2 dmen in Schmidt and Hughes who cant defend to save their lives.  Rafferty and Chatfield should be nowhere on this team this year.

Oh man when I see 6 foot 5 D and high draft pick I think it’s too Gud to be true 

He has a more all-around skill set. Good passer/shooter/skater for his size.

 

 

[SergioMomesso]

At least we took care of Armia. Only 2 periods too late. 

[J.I.A.H.N]

Isn't it great to have hockey back!

You're in. With an 'A' on your jersey to boot. 

"And in a surprise move, Twilight Sparkle is an emergency callup for the Canucks, and is wearing the letter F, for ****ed in the head"

Remember all the people saying this team is really improved coming into this season?  Good times.

I think those comments came with the expectation the team wouldn’t completely forget how to play in their own zone for periods at a time.
 

There were some mild “we’ll allow a few more chances” but Jesus, nobody predicted this.

That was also a clean hit 

 

the difference is myers came in from the side not straight on like stevens. Of course he will fall back, where else would he go?

 

when you  come from the side and contact the head, the body is not fslling backwards. Trust me i gave done it a few times  

The only thing that makes that hit not clean is because it was late.

I agree Baum is part of the problem.  Even with our best d core in the past couple years.. their system was to collapse in front of the net and hand the Perimeter over to the other team and rely on marky to make the saves. 

And now it's just a disaster. Fire drill after fire drill.

It was poorly worded by him. Head was still principle point of contact and by current rule it was a predatory hit. Suspension is overkill. Even Garrett is saying it was a hit to the head. 

[GetFocht]

Hard to hang this on anything other than a depleted dcore but TG doesn't have these guys coming out with any fire. Literally none.

Maybe this will finally Be the year jimbo is fired. Please please for the sake of this city 

 

Aqua is bleeding cash. Benning just got an extension.

 

If they can't buyout Sutter there's no chance they'll be paying JB not to work.

I'd have Loui in the lineup on Saturday even if he is tied to a ventilator.

 

Did I really say that? 

This is what it’s come to.

He had the puck just go off his stick 

 

i didn't feel it was late? 
 

at Myers height it takes a while to see the puck

I didn't NOT expect this though. Our coaching allows for these games to happen in 50% of our games. Absolute jekyll and Hyde team and Green refuses to call timeouts to get his team back in order when they need it.

I always thought we could take a step back. We replaced key pieces with unknowns.

 

Never thought it would be this bad where everything sucks, even Petey/Hughes.

Just pulling your leg JD... I Trust your assessment .. I’m sure the kid is good.. probably an upgrade to most of these current guys.

Lol oh man I had high Hope's for this season..

 

This ship is not gonna turn around easily 

It's good that you have high hopes but probably best to keep your expectations realistic because we just lost 4 very good players from last year and still have about 12 bad contracts to burn up.   It'll be another 2 years until we're in better shape.  So hang tight......................
