Tonybologna Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Sure feels like last year's team again, and I don't know if that's a good thing or not. Glad to win here I just think they could look so much better doing it. Defense is still atrocious, no system. But if they're winning I don't think the changes that are needed to take the next step will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sod16 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 There was no lack of desire on our part, but NJ seemed to be able to out chance us without breaking a sweat. If Sheshty continues to play the way he has the last three games, we'll win plenty, deserve it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 They're showing they give a shit, but their game is still in shambles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Yeah, still absolutely no structure at all on the defensive end. I guess you could say the same on offense too maybe. lol But, defense is a more glaring concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re loud Maybe/Maybe not....I do know the person that did buy my tixs lives in Point Pleasant so a good chance, but she did win a D-3 Hockey National Championship at Plattsburgh State in 2014 so that makes it ok in my book. And if I did sell to a Devils fan, she then got a heartbreaking OT loss. As for me, I caught the last 30 seconds of the 3rd and OT. Pleasantly surprised after I checked the score after 5:00 in the 1st period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 It's great to see our "Formula" is working!!! Gotta hand it to Shesty for keeping them in the game.

I love the fact the guy cares, but Jesus, he's got 2 right hands and 3 left feet out there. A big win tonight, but we still have some work to do to clean up our game!!

Cash or Czech Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 That offense stepping up and converting their chances. Said in another thread that's where we'd fallen behind. 4/7 is pretty fantastic conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a winning formula long term. You know, I doubted you last year when you pointed this out, and you were right. Eventually some of those high danger chances and bad turnovers end up in our own net. Neither Igor or Jesus, for that matter could stop some of those shots. Playoff teams, and especially serious cup contenders are going to exploit our defensive lapses, and take advantage of them. It's going to be another wild, and possibly a very short ride in the playoffs if we can't get some stability in our defensive structure between now and then. Think about it though; how awesome would Igor be if he actually had a solid defending team?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a team built around offense and out scoring our opponents who also happen to have an elite goaltender that will make up for shambolic defense.

Add in how many times we turn the puck over at our own blue line, or get picked in the NZ just to feed the opposition's transition game, and we have a recipe for disaster without the help of our resident brick wall between the pipes. Here's one to ponder: What would our record be if Halak was our starter...or any goalie not named Igor. Scary right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like he's rounding back into top of league status, but it was ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
