#Notes

* Well when you don’t try on defense this shit happens

    The Tampa Bay lightning and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. JoJo and the defense were horrendous. Funny that we actually could’ve tied it up on the power play and hit the post, then instead the Islanders got one and the game was basically over. I’m inclined to go back to the AHL guys we were playing before the break when the defense was actually good.

  2. Adept_Staff9777

    Only good thing tonight is that Nathan didn’t get points …

  3. Then_Ship1329

    Take a look at those upcoming games.

    Better find a way to lock in.

  4. Wayf4rer

    Another sparkling effort tonight by the Tampa Bay Lightning and their marquee player Conor “-3 NTC” Sheary. Is it any coincidence we get Cernak back and instantly look like shit again? I’ll let you be the judge.

  5. dolewhiplash

    Well that fucking sucked.

    I want to see ABB on waivers tomorrow, scratch Watson, call up a forward if Jeannot isn’t ready, and put Fluery back in. We have to start trying shit and finding some combo that works because this ain’t it.

    At least Kuch got a point because other than that what a huge waste of time that game was holy fuck

  6. I’m afraid this could get ugly quickly. Get it together boys

  7. HannTwistzz

    Kucherov the only one giving a fuck, feel bad for him at this point. Probably won’t be a fun playoffs this year if we even get there

  8. Skroskznik_

    I’m sorry but the next game is our only chance to get some points up. If we can’t get our act together, I can only hope we don’t end up falling below the line by next week

  9. Then_Ship1329

    Well thank you to the league who in their infinite wisdom gave us a b2b after 11 days off!

    If it makes any of you feel better. The Canucks lost 4-0 tonight, the Avs let in 2 goals in five seconds and lost.

    Shit happens. Let’s get SOME points on this trip and try to put these games behind us.

    We’ve seen they can do it.

  10. BrolexRolex

    The Cardio enjoyers need to get banished, can’t stand seeing dudes like Watson, Sheary and ABB get ice time on this team anymore when we’ve got Goncalves, Groshev, Merela in the system. Truly a rough way to resume after the all-star. Losing Sergachev hasn’t made anything easier, but improvements have to be made.

  11. rhodesleadnowhere

    I didn’t watch the game, but from the sounds of it, the rooks were the only thing holding this team together.

  12. GroMicroBloom

    I opened a fresh bag of Lay’s and went through it all in one sitting during the game and it was the most enjoyable thing from that game

  13. Three_Froggy_Problem

    This absolutely blew and I didn’t even watch the last goal against because I turned it off after we went down 2-5. An all around pathetic effort, some of the worst defense we’ve seen all year, and a really rough performance from JoJo.

    ABB and Sheary are useless, Cernak isn’t worth 1/10th of his contract, and the Perbix/De Haan combo is brutal (even though I like both of them). Bring back the Crunch babies.
