Didn't Domingue go on an 11 game win streak last year when he had to go in?

With Tampa I think...

The media will ask Green if Domingue will start and to spite them Demko will start.

I really hope they ride Demko straight into the playoffs.

If Demko saves one more single shot in that game.

Demko at this point is the absolute least of my worries.

Feb stats
Hughes, Miller 15 in 13 games
Edler 9, Petey, Gaudette, Sutter 8 points
Horvat 7
Toffoli 6
Stecher 5
Pearson, Virtanen, Myers 4
Beagle, Motte, Roussel 3
Eriksson, fatburger, Tanev 2
The rest are at 1 including Boeser 5 games 1 point.

Secondary scoring has dried up. You don't win games at this time of the year scoring 2 goals a game. If yo don't score 3 the other team will and to think that Demko needs to have a GAA of 2.00 every game for the team to win is Bullpoop.

It's all down to goal tending now.
- VanHockeyGuy

For a team that scores at almost 3.25 goals per game and the last two losses they have scored 2 only. Looking at the wrong thing.

Fatburger and Myers paired together for todays' game. Good thing Vantel wanted to extend Fatburger. Make it 5 more years so they can be paired together til the end.

Sorry Vantel

I'd still sign him too for cheap and use him at 7th D and trade him at the next deadline. More 5ths

I still do want him extended. Two years is fine though.

Lots of panic in here today, but, still 2 points up on 9th with games in hand on quite a few teams. We still have a chance, I think they will pull through 🤩

Actually agree Demko isn't technically the problem. Marky let in 3- 4 GPG lots and we still won. Scoring is drying up and again .500 hockey over the last two months will kill you.

Dermott cross-checks Petey from behind knocks him down and the entire club sits there and watches.

Perfect.

The way teams are paying for players with term let on contracts. I'd go like 1.1 on 3 years. I liked the Justin Holl 3 years 2 AAV TML signed him too. If JB could come under that as they are decent comparables.

The last 10 games other than Boston have not instilled much in the way of confidence. Flat starts, playing touch hockey and garbage coaching are all causes for concern.

I like Tyler Motte . He reminds me of the Little Engine That Could. If he is your energy guy and team leader in hits and take aways then you are pretty fuked .

I have seen one game this year that Bo showed he was the true leader. The game against Boston. He needs to bring that most nights not once a year.

They need to do some adjusting and make some changes.

For sure. I know he had a hot start but I don't like Toffoli with Petey-Miller. TT should be on Bo's line with Pearson and how JV isn't with Petey-Miller is beyond me. That solidifies the top 6 with Boeser out. The bottom 6 is what it is and can figure it out.

Damn kids are in town, missed the turd period because we went out for dinner. Hate losing to the Leafs but what can you do. Average, or below average, goaltending, shoddy defensively and your supposed stars aren’t scoring makes it tough.

It was a shameful game with a coach in over his head.

6 teams within 3 points fighting for 3 spots, I have my doubts.

Oddly is the bottom 6 hasn't been bad. They have actually been better than the top 6 outside of Miller.

Gaudette and Sutter have had as many points as Petey has in the month of February and more than Horvat, Pearson and 4 times as much as their line mate.

Line combinations should be tried to get a spark going. It's just a starting line up and will be changed but the changes need to be different.

I watched the third period of the Oilers vs Jets game and you could see structure in both of their games. When the Oilers didn’t have the puck the immediately went into a 1-2-2 formation and forced the play to one side in the neutral zone, a beautiful thing to watch.

The Canucks vs Leafs game was pond hockey, totally scrambled....frustrating to watch.

Leafs and Canucks play similar styles.

Canucks need to play with speed, if they don't the system fails them.
