CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Cole had probably his worst period of the season. Team 5v5 dominated, just stay out of the box. The Islanders move the puck well. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn needs a partner who can also skate, that's why the Hronek/Hughes tandem is so good is because they don't spend too much time in the D zone.

It's the slow start and 7 goals in four periods. Not a typical Demko the last couple of starts. Deflections hit him when he is on but the team has to be awake to start games.

I really hate seeing them all of a sudden playing better. Being prepared to play isn't there to start games. Honestly the 2nd goal was just bad luck, I agree it was not the strongest start (not that they were getting caved in) but Cole gets called on a so-so call and it's 1-0. The 2nd one was just an unfortunate penalty & a weird bounce on the goal. It should be 1-0 but atleast they started carrying play. 11-3 the shots after the 2nd goal I believe, now 14-13. Just need 1 here & it's a completely different game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolboarder Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 7 minutes ago, Sophomore Jinx said: WTF will these guys ever learn to never underestimate their opponents, while resting on their own laurels? FFS! They should be dictating the play, and setting the tone early, especially versus lesser opponents like the pablum NYI. They will not be contenders any time soon if they STILL have these games where they come out flat, and uninspired. Top teams do not do that. GCFG!!! I wouldn't worry because they will learn how to raise the standard now that teams are really targeting them. Opponents know that they cannot afford to have a slow start or else they'd be burnt like a crisp. It will take time to raise their standard to become a habit. I think it is a good problem to have the issues this early then it will become a habit for the future seasons and that includes playoffs. I have noticed the big difference when teams are raising the standard, the Canucks raise even higher to the point where they cannot handle us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RU SERIOUS Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 18 minutes ago, Strawbone said: Just one injury and it feels like our defense is already much weaker. Balance is all off. Get to work Alvin, we need more D depth. We've known all along that only 2 good "A" defencemen are not enough. Filling the other 4 spots with one "B", two "C"'s and an "E" is not the most solid plan to get thru a full season successfully - especially since we only have inexperienced kids down on the farm team. I'm sure management is well aware of this but we're still stuck with a few really really bad Jim Benning contracts that need to be purged so we can acquire a couple better D's. likely next year unless JR PA throw somemore Draft picks away trying to swing some deals.
