Got to love Marty...they just mentioned on CBC that Marty was ask about padqvist play after the first gameand he said I don't know I only saw him for for 10 minutes because there was to many bodies in front of him for the rest of the game.
Regardless how the rest of this series goes, we really need to (but probably won't) get a legit defenseman. Our in zone D is horrendous and really gets exposed by better teams. Salvador has been off all series, Andy Greene did a great job of covering nobody and screening Marty on that 2nd goal. We are beating ourselves.
the 1st call was total bs. the ref was 2ft from it looking and he didnt call it. they owe the devils a pp for that. the one on zajac was a bad penalty that was a legit call.
come on marty lets go gotta steal one for us here....20min hockey game send it to nj 1-1
We were the better team tonight plain and simple. We lose when we beat ourselves. Can't take dumb penalties, or lose our heads like we did with the 2 icings when Henrik was pulled.
Great game... I wish they would have shown the replays on the penalties.... the first one was BS I know... but no replay to confirm... the second one on zaj was legit... just a bad penalty.... we gotta stop doing that because I dont think they can beat us one on one.... they block alot of shots, but they dont have much scoring... they seem to be one dimensional.... but who cares.... tied 1-1 (just like last series) and we now have home ice advantage....
Yeah 1st and 3rd periods were all ours.... i dont know what happened in the second, but they looked hella bad.... but fantastic in the first and thirds... you could tell we were gonna score....
And for the record.... if they dont block shots, they dont do shit....
Thankfully that game is over and the good guys won! Where was Larsson? I can't take much more of Harrold. Last series turned around when Larsson got a chance. Marty was solid. Kovy was very good once again. The 4th line came through. Not big on Carter but he really came through. Parise still hasn't solved the Queen but he has to keep at it. Got a feeling he will have a multi-goal game in the near future.
And Clarky is the man. Got the game winner in Game 2 just like he did last round. Hopefully this series follows the same script!
