I can see the Av's passing VGK for 1st and at the same time the Wild slip to 4th. Rather play VGK but all roads will go through Col anyhow.

Hockey-78 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 LOL. They say SOGs after 2 periods are 25 - 19. Are they drunk or still embracing glues? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Behind the goal, point, boards, anywhere but center. That's where it's easiest to contain him. AWESOME point. It is just IDIOTIC, and I brought this up earlier in the year. Why bottle him up when he has THE most skill on the team. Just boobery in terms of PP structure and positioning (I didn't have a better adjective than to invent one for the level of stupidity ) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a rat. The way things are looking, we'll end up looking at Landeskunk and Kadri celebrating sweeping us in the playoffs. But if we meet them in the second round someone might have injured 29 and co out of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynxrattle Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 We should stop using the term "PP" and just use "boobery" until there has been a coaching change. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think our loss was expected after their previous tremendous win and overshooting us with 55 shots. They had a courage to repeat their win. At least we should not give them a shutout.

EmptyShelf Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 While we always talk about needing a #1 Center, how about just a more skilled forward that can skate with a team like the Avs, or shoot like a Rantanan, or pass like a Stone (that is also not a mini-me in size)?!? I would take that for games like this. We always look like a clearance store upfront - a few gems, buried under a pile of undesirable mediocrity.

Trust me, he is VERY funny, and might even be amenable to slipping something he found funny in there somewhere. CL would probably fine/suspend him, however. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day Parise never drew a penalty no matter how badly he was mauled in front of the net. If he fought, he would probably be the only player penalized.

Hockey-78 Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) I wonder what Parise is thinking. Does he really enjoy being a sideshow bob on ice yet getting handsomely paid? Could the situation embarrass him? He must realize time has passed him or is he still in denial phase? Wouldn't surprise me if he decided to call it a day instead playing through his current contract. @CreaseAndAssist, interested in making a blog entry / a lengthy writeup of Parise's situtation?

He can't skate fast enough to be even a bottom 6 player. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have that player, which I am talking 3 seasons in a row already - Dmitry Sokolov - huge size, huge shoot, huge speed. Why we should not give him a try? Especially for these valuable games when experience is needed. These 2 games(losses) brought our team back to the ground. Still we did not lose to them like St.Louis did - 0:8.
