Anything low a goalie will drop and sweep away. There is a "soft spot" right below the blocker and above the pad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 If we trade Hall at the deadline... can we still get his #1 overall draft lottery luck? https://www.nhl.com/news/hall-tabs-himself-lottery-ball-specialist-after-devils-win-top-pick/c-289179752 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Wow. That was pretty. Risto got pinned at the blue line, and while the Sabres were twiddling their thumbs, 3 Islanders attacked. Such beautiful transition. All too easy. And here I was about to say... just one random carom and we would be tied... and how ridiculous would that be? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro60 Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Risto has not bounced back from his Covid scare. The mental aspect to his game is not sharp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Meanwhile... Eichel, Hall and Reino on ice. We get the opportunity for a break... Eichel can't find the puck. Then he stops moving forward in order to make the pass, by which time all NYI defenders are rushing back. We get nothing. Then a 3 on 2 possible, and our shot ends up at low percentage and caught in the glove outside the net, not even on goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) I just tuned in. 10 shots in 2 periods. G-D how does RK still have a job? Turning it off now. Edited March 5, 2021 by GASabresIUFAN 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitro60 Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) These guys pass when they should dump and dump when they should pass. Next coach will have to get back to basic basics. Edited March 5, 2021 by Nitro60 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Remember his rookie year, where Dahlin would attempt some silly pass nonsense that isn't going to work on smaller ice against NHL-caliber players and it'd turn into an opposition chance... Except... Dahlin would fly back and break it up out of desperate grit and determination? That Dahlin is gone. He's a step slow and pinched on that goal rather than going after the true threat: Beauvillier. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
