The only thing Lucic can do is get in front of the goalie abd take his eyes away. That's useless if you are not shooting from the point. Watching him shuffling around in the O zone and any passes going his way are turnovers.... We lost two skilled players that could score. We gained two players that could score. We have turned into a low skill team that hopes for a one goal win.

Sutter went on a rant about getting to the net and not always getting shots from the point. So, now we stopped shooting from the point and have people in front. Not much point if there is nothing to screen, nothing to deflect. 2 goals scored on Mrkey were screened/tipped. Most teams score like that. We won't take the shot.

I will give you that one. Wasn't a sure thing goal. All in all, it wasn't goaltending that cost us the game. When you get a couple of PP and your only good chance hits the post, then you likely lose the game. We are in that grove of barely able to score 3, so asking for perfect goaltending is a big ask. Lines 2 and 4 gone cold.

Oprah say you get a pint, everyone gets a pint. In the east its sounds like you get a point. Cape Breton that is. And Newfoundland.

Take the loss, look at game tapes. It wasn't a blowout, but we didn't score on the HD chances. Always trying to come back doesn't help.

Game over. Toffoli gets a bad call for a hack on the stick. No time to pull the goalie, assuming we kill it off.

A foot wide and a perfect deflection. Maybe take the stick of the guy in front of the net?

Same type of play, in the net. Don't we have people that can deflect the puck? All our goals tonight are on the rush, which is great, but no point shots. None on the PP.

Maybe sit the 2nd line for a bit. Not feeling it.

3rd period close game, we don't have the horses to win a 1-1 game. Down 2-1 with minutes left. Needed Backlund to get one of his shots in. He had like 8

Zaddy does us right.

Nobody wants to shoot. Pass it around where the Jets overload a side. Ras walks in and passes off.

Can we decline the PP?

Seems like Helly is headed for a SHUTOUT. He's not giving much up for shots except the post.

Saw that coming. Way too much running around and nobody able to clear the puck.

One pass too many for Hubey, but Weegar missed a perfect shot by inches. Helly made a 10 bell save. Coleman tripped and nothing.

On that shortie 2 on 1, Backlund should have aimed for the post. We are so good at hitting it, we may hit the net if we aim for it.

Markstrom looking good this week.

Sheifele should have been called for holding Stone's stick. Instead we get the call for a marginal X check.

Reasonable call, I guess. He really kinda dragged him down. 50/50 call, but we are the 50 in that equation.

Canada almost lost to the Slovacs. They had to defend 4-3 in OT. The USA looks deadly. And their goalie is a stud; Oke I think his name is. Good luck getting by the Amerks. Enough of that, it feels like a joke since we played like 6 months ago. This game is looking like most game we don't dominate from the drop of the puck. Get some chances, get a PP and play catch. Get a goal, defend for 30 to 40 minutes.

Lucic gets a breakaway (partial) and put the puck a foot wide. Not expecting a perfect shot, but FFS hit the net. Ras misses the open net on a rebound seconds later. Come close as time expires.

30 secons of passing. One shot, then an off angle one. What a waste. 25th in league on the PP

Well Weegs gets the last laugh. Was wrestling with PLD and then PLD comes back and X checks him. PP time.
