I'm actually going to hand it to the D on this one. The forwards weren't all that great. Gardiner and Reilly were the only players able to counter the speed of the carolina zone entry. MOTM - Gardiner HM - Reilly HM -Andersen

Well, I'll admit that we were outskated a bit there in the third, but it's nice to the see regression up to the mean in the extra point show. Looks like we're back in a playoff spot, which I shall now celebrate with whatever I find in the fridge.

I don't know if they've mentioned it (watching on mute), but the way the puck is bouncing, I'd guess the ice is in bad shape.

Turnovers suck, man.

They're really missing carrick a fair bit.

If they made that call on marincin, they could have made the same on 2 carolina players hanging off nylander.

Need a point, minimum. St. Lou up by a goal against NYI

McClement still there, eh? Wow.

Yeah, he's been on the quiet side the last few weeks. But at some point, they're going to have to give him something to really work with - I've no problem with Brown playing top 9, but if Hyman never sees Matthews' line again, that'd work fine for me. If Bozak had hyman and Brown, and Matthews...

Let alone what kind of player, but even what position he'll settle into. Out of three elite rookie forwards, I think his game has improved the most from season start to current. There'd be stretches early on when he looked almost disinterested on the ice. It looks like he's really started...

Nylander is playing out of his mind. Matthews is going to have to step it up.

So out of your options, put me down for a #3, so we can start building a rivalry again.  :)

I think with the draft projected to being on the weak side, unless there's a good chance of a top 5 pick, I guess I'd prefer a few playoff games. Really they're likely to finish in no-man's land, so no point in chasing picks by one or two up or down at this point.

I'm wondering if Marincin's injury earlier in the year has him still having issues getting back into form. He looked like a lock for a 5-6 at the end of last season, and this season he's looked slow, both in foot speed and decision making. If he's truly healthy, then yeah, I'd want to see him...

I think that goes double for Komarov. Although that's far more justifiable, imo.

I think Panik played a full season with the leafs, and I don't recall him doing that with any regularity, so lamenting him as "the one that got away" isn't exactly fair to the mgt group. I guess it would make more sense to wish Grabner was still around. And stop trying to make fetch Griffith...

That's a pretty steep price to pay for Burrows. Dahlen is a pretty good prospect. Adding an extension so he'd waive the ntc, I'd imagine. Seems like bad money on top of losing assets.

So, 2nd rounder in a weak draft and a warm body for a 4th line center who looks like an oversized Inigo Montoya on an expiring contract rental? I'll pretty much rubber stamp it a half-approving "meh".

Yeah, recency bias is a thing. I know Komorov isn't in anyone's plans post this season, and I think that he's played often a line up from where he ideally would slot in, but I think that it's a mistake for fans to assume he could be easily replaced by shoshnikov or other players in the org.
