I think I'm still up on game thread duties given it was an OT loss...if not, someone else needs to step up and then let this die on the vine.

Eliot Friedman would be proud of this one.

If the B's get at least one point, the game thread starter starts the next game's thread. Therefore, I declare this thread VALID.

They have to win a game first. So if they get 2 points then 1+ points, you start another. If you start off with an OTL or SOL you are SOL for starting the next game thread.

This isn't Nam. There are rules.

Looks like no Grzelyck again. Swayman in net.

Marchand - Bergeron - DeBrusk
Hall - Haula - Pastrnak
Frederic - Coyle - Smith
Foligno - Nosek - Lazar

Reilly - McAvoy
Ahcan - Carlo
Forbort - Clifton

Swayman

What if I'm a nihilist? Does that factor in?

The other night we had Grz going off on a bewildering change and now tonight we have whatever the fuck Carlo was doing there on the DeBrincat goal. Who's spiking the gatorade?

Also on the DeBrincat goal, sure looks to me like DeBrusk both: a) made a crappy decision by drifting down deep while both Bergeron and Marchand were already committed, and b) took his sweet time getting back on defense.

Both teams are really sloppy in their defensive zones. And that was a boneheaded penalty for Frederic to take.

I’m at a bar so I can’t rewind it, but that still probably means 2 other players weren’t doing what they were supposed to do on top of that

Carlo pushed when all 3 forwards were already low. Achan didn't play either the shooter or the pass, but rather backed ass-first into Swayman. Just an all-around break down

Gotcha. I literally picked my head head up to see that perfect 4v1 for CHI and and was like “HOW?!?!”

Ugh. Just turned it on to see that shit. Not a team they shouldn’t come away with 2 points from

I thought Ahcan had decent efforts earlier in the season, but he's not looking like a capable NHL dman tonight.

I don’t know what the advanced stats say, but I feel like they haven’t had the puck enough tonight. Especially vs a non playoff team.

NST's a few minutes behind but about 53% 5v5 xGF for the entire game so far. Certainly a concerning "effort" versus a crappy team.

I will say, I’ve watched a lot of this team this season because Fleury is one of my fantasy goalies, the main reason for there record is that Fleury has been garbage all year IMHO.
