NOON Today Hurricane Warning: Finishing of what...10/26 IGT

[Raskolnikov]

Colloton started. Great line-up you found there douche bag!! Lets stick with insanity another 3 games and see what happens!!!! fuck shit ass fuck what the fuck is this crap?

Team feels like CC is about to lose it and on the brink of throwing it in. Rif raf are wanting to trade out of this mess. Young players heads are spinning. Old players are playing hard infrequently and getting beat to spots. PUck possession is tenuous, there is no calmness, no composure out there.

I just watched a period of hockey in which the Hawks had 1 shot on goal over 20 minutes that included 2 power plays. hahahahah wtf!! And here we go with the same line-ups again tonight. Colloton is showing early desperation and panic!! Smith is in for Perlini and Crow gets his turn.

DeBrincat — Toews — Shaw

Strome — Dach — Kane

Saad — Kampf — Kubalik

Smith — Carpenter — Nylander

Keith — de Haan

Maatta — Seabrook

Koekkoek — Gustafsson

Crawford

Lehner

HAS ANYONE SEEN CAT?

I kinda want to hear about the celebration involving strome and Cat when he got paid, because neither has been seen since, exempt Cat getting boarded frequently trying to get involved in Shaw's messes.

Right now for me its clearly Shaw is a detriment to the top 6, and he could be an asset to the bottom 6. Upgrade two spots at once!

Kane is determined to make it work with Dach, but that might require a less direct line...team success is necessary now to even consider keeping Dach. He could produce but if they don't win it won't make sense.

This match-up features the 22nd team in Corsi(us), vs the 2nd team (them).

How could I possibly be mad at Toews when he has only 11 feet of men on his wings?

Toews has to carry the mini-me attack and then we blame him? This fucking line-up is so expoitable and I expect 6-2 is about our ceiling going into this one.

The Hurricanes play fast and are a tough match-up for Hawks like Vegas or Colorado, is who they remind me of.

Saad-Toews-Kubalik/Jewels
Cat-Strome-Kane
Kampf-Dach-Shaw/Kubalik
Jewels-Carp-Smith/Shaw

Gonna keep harping on it until I see it!!

What you lose on the third line can be made up if Toews/Cat get going. That third line can fight hard and be a wild card, but Toews needs 12.5 feet of men, and Cat needs the protection that Kane's stalemate game provides the most.

I'd move Kubalik up to the first line Shaw to the third, in the current line-up, under your scenario, but don't see Jeremy putting Cat-Strome-Kane, together today.

Toews is more productive when he plays with Kane, and Kane can play with anyone. I'd like to see the lines similar to what they started the season with, but throw Dach into the mix.

Nylander-Toews-Kane
Cat-Strome-Kubalik
Kampf-Dach-Shaw
Jewels-Carp-Smith

...might even switch Kampf and Jewels, two tough guys, who have occasional signs of offense, protecting Dach and Kampf on the 4th becomes a complete shutdown line.

Dach-Toews-Shaw

Saad-Kampf-Kubalik
Jewels-Carp-Smith? worth a look?

overwhelming tenacity on the top line. A max scoring line. The speed line, counter attack. And then the Jewels-Carp-Smith.

 

[mikita's helmet]

Well at least the lines have been changed up.

 

[mikita's helmet]

stay out of the box, keep your sticks down. ...our PK, SUCKS!!!
sad

 

[Raskolnikov]

lets stay in this game and fight. Murphy+Keith was two men down, so lets not panik. Steal the game.

 

[zack54attack]

Totally forgot this was a noon game. Looks like the Blackhawks did too...

 

[Raskolnikov]

so what lines did they change up to? I'm still catching up.

 

[anotheridiot]

I cant catch them either, that first period was a flash. 12 shots each

I think it was

Saad, Toews, Kane a few shifts, Think Cat was just changing, but Dach was with Kubalik and it sounded like Shaw.

At least Smith is in, I know Cajewelsa took a nasty spill last game, dont know if that made the change to get Smith, on the fourth with Carpenter and Nylander.

Maybe by overtime we will know the lines.

Seems like the teams are playing this noon saturday game like practice, maybe there is a concert tonight?

Cat-Toews-Kane
Jewels-Dach-Shaw
Nylander-Kampf-Kubalik
Smith-Carpenter-Smith

sorta what I suggested earlier, though they blew-up the Cat/Strome/whoever

 

[mikita's helmet]

shoot the fuckin' puck, stop lookin' for the perfect pass, even the 4th line is doing it. ...sheesh!

 

[mikita's helmet]

We have one goal in the last 7+ periods.

Crow has to stop that shot.

 

[mikita's helmet]

Can't take stupid (rookie 77) penalties when your PK sucks big time.

 

[Raskolnikov]

wow is that a season wrap?

 

[mikita's helmet]

In any five minute segment the of the game, the Canes had more scoring chances than the Hawks did all game. 1 goal in the last 8 periods. 4th line was our best offensive line. Except for Nylander, no one had a good game. Canes 2/2 on the PP. Hawks 0/3. Blow up the front office. The Swedish Svengali calls out the team, saying it's not the lines, it's the effort, then completely changes the lines up, and we get an even worse result, ...if that's possible. SMH

 

[anotheridiot]

Cat-Toews-Kane
Jewels-Dach-Shaw

Game is over and I still cant figure out who were on the lines. I know there were not two smiths, I did hear Stromes name two or three times. Heard Kampf, heard Dach won 4/5 face offs, heard he led the team with Kane with 4 shots.

I meant Smith-Carp-Strome.

Strome was on the 4th line all game
Otherwise lines were
Cat-Toews-Kane
Jewels-Dach-Shaw
Nylander-Kampf-Kubalik

 

[zack54attack]

Just an absolute piss poor effort.
