I thought Geno himself looked awful after that hit. I'm fearing that it messed up his shoulder. I mean Geno was BAD after that...

I noticed that too. We'll see. Then again, he has a history of getting all boo-boo faced after another Russian upstages him.

No, he's saying that goalies can steal games and you can be happy he did, but letting a 7 game series playout like this isn't likely to result in 4 wins.

Isn't that what the OP said, just using different words and a different tone?

Watching the game, I had no idea that the Caps were controlling the play and that MAF bailed them out. Good thing we had the #fancystats and #graphs to let me know that.

Seems like it to me. You look at it in a defensive way, he looks at it aggressively.

Bottom line: you can have all of the shots that you want, and, while it's not PREFERABLE to be outshot/outschanced/outfancied, you can still win because more shot attempts does not translate to more goals.

Exactly, all it means is you have better odds of scoring.

My issue was more the use of the word narrative. When I think of narrative, I usually think of a story or a fabrication. I guess that's more how I read into it, that there is an agenda. Where as I feel like in this case it's pretty cut and dry. Penguins got outplayed and still won. Looking at traditional and fancy stats.

EDIT: That's also where sometimes reading text on a screen can be difficult to interpret tone as well. W

If Hags is in, Who comes out of the lineup? Wilson, Kuhn or Sheary?

Anyone notice in that Fleury of saves clip, Maatta's stick being held for about 4 seconds?

Sheary needs to sit. If only to get his bearings back.

As long as Kunitiz is not put on the top line, it won't be that bad!

Wasn't he scratched in the Tampa series last year, then came back and played well after that?

It should be Sheary, but probably Kuhn or Wilson. I don't think Sheary can have another game like that and stay in the lineup. Third line was ground into a pulp.

Geno was one of the first out for practice today. Hoping he didn't get banged up, he and Phil need to be much better. They need to outplay the Williams line.

bench sheary for one game. however, i go right back to him afterwards. im thoroughly pissed at him at the moment, but you cant take away from him what he accomplished this year.

give him the night off and then pop him back in there.

About 8 of those shots around the crease where in that scramble.

It's one thing to go into a scoring slump, but I'm more worried about his turnovers and lapses. He's demonstrating the definition of "fighting the puck".
