Three line changes in ot and no shift for Skinner seems odd, guy only has like 20 goals

We still get point and this isn't the end. The next team we play is done!

Not sure why he favors Reinhart in ot he's so slow. Team played tired all game + I think the ice was horrible. Ullmark was great but that 2nd goal was brutal. Stupid penalties are killing us And our PP in the 3rd was brutal. Still a point is a point

Honestly we’ve been playing this way all month. The luck is running out the past 2 games. We are 14-3-3 in the last 20 though so can’t complain too much but the luck has definitely run out.

if you removed 4-5 players from the big club, waivers/trades and bring 4 or 5 up from rochester

the product on the ice will be much better IMO

Who are the 4-5 u want gone?

Tom Wilson is a predatory d bag

I hope he gets 5-7 games. He just doesn't learn. Puck is long gone when he makes that hit to the head. There's no place in the game for that crap

On the Tom Wilson hit:

Watch it full speed, guy does a 180, skates backward and Wilson DOES try to avoid him. Should have been a 2 minute for interference. No head contact, no slew foot, just a bigger dude skating full speed on the back-check and a smaller dude being reckless. At most Wilson intended to give him a little bump on his way by but the guy had already spun 180 degrees, and was still rotating in his back-skate.

Physics.

Slow-motion makes this hit look completely different. He could have barreled right over the guy in all honesty and didn't.

Also, Skinner, pay that man yesterday.

You gotta be good to be lucky, this team is good. It takes a great effort to win 10 in a row, they lost a close hard fought game against a great team in their building. Then play a game the night after and lead most of the game and lose in OT in a game no one thought they were gonna show up for. I’m not worried about this team needing luck to win games.

No he doesn't. I don't think he tried to kill him, but it was completely avoidable. He doesn't get the benefit of the doubt anymore.

Jack's on a 97 point pace. At this rate he'll end up with 90 assists and 7 goals.

Yeah, he led with the wrong shoulder if he's playing the "I tried to turn away" defense. He slightly turns his left shoulder into the hit instead of turning away and leading with his right which any person that was trying to avoid contact would do.

Meh, the guy was going to skate right into him, he protected himself by shifting his weight at the last minute, if he doesn't do this, both guys end up injured.

I'm not giving him the benefit of the doubt, but the opposing player was playing reckless in this situation. If you spin a 180 and skate backwards and shift your direction without looking, you're gonna have a bad time.

Fire Housley and Botteril!
Trade everyone, blow it up.
...or do I need to wait a couple games longer?

Only saw the 3rd and OT last night, they didn't look like they were on the same page, and much slower. Credit to the Panthers, they stood up at the blue line well and kept coming.
Oh well.
Rest up for next game.

How did Pilut look overall.
From limited time I saw him, the game seemed fast for him,
and I saw one major gaff when he put the puck on Panthers stick in the slot..Ullmark bailed him out.

97 points is 97 points at the end of the day. If he only scores 20 this year and racks up 75 assists that means Skinner scored 45 and will have 20 assists.

Agreed.
Expectation wise for thbose players above, realistically what should we expect
Pommer 15-20-35
Okposo 20-20-40
Casey 20-25-45
ERod 15-20-35
Sobotka 10-15-25
I'll throw in Berglund too at 15-25-40

About right?
