Ovi checked our D off the play on that goal.  LOL. We are just an embarrassment tonight.

Fucking pathetic.

   Yup Orlov made can nice play in the offensive zone then hustled to get back on defense and Ovi takes him out of the play.

Holts was already looking at the bench at 3:20

Well that incredibly shitty effort from start to finish really ruined my fucking Friday night.  What a crappy game from a team that doesn't come to play unless it decides it wants to.

Why the hell are they trying to skate against this bunch of fuckin midgets?


Do we not have another playbook translated in all the different Eurolamgues these guys speak in?

Ya' know that's what I was thinking, but are we selling Carolina short?  Did we look so bad because we played like crap or did Carolina's defense just make us play that bad.  Or, probably more likely, a combination of both?

   We should have been throwing the body against this team.

Trotz is telling the guys  " WE GOT THIS!"

   Carolina isn't that bad if a team. A bit offensively challenged and they have had some goaltending issues. If they get average goaltending they would be a playoff team.

[ArJunaZ]

Every time we pull the goalie I cringe. We almost always give up an ENG in those situations.

Here's to a better result Sunday.

Ovie's 1000th game.
At Pittsburgh.
Chance to clinch the division with a win.
Ovie versus Sid.
Maybe that'll be enough to inspire them to play with some passion!!!

You guys crack me up.  This team had nothing to play for.  If we come out and slam them in the mouth a few times they skate pretty and hide the rest of the night, but instead we play the ice capades style of play Carolina features and we get our asses kicked.  Just crap for us to say "Wow, look at the Canes!  They are awesome."  No. They aren't.  We just sucked.

C'mon man - no one said "Wow, look at the Canes.  They are awesome".  We just queried the same thing Alan May, Joe and Craig said - the Canes played a good game, which made us look that much worse.

   Lol no one said the Canes we awesome. They arent a bad team though. I already said we should have played this team more physical. The Canes try to shy away from the physical stuff. And so did we tonight. Even Wilson and Orpik weren't hitting tonight.

OV does not equal Alexander Ovechkin, it’s yet one more form of shorthand

   You are missing my point entirely. Even though you say you have nothing against Carlson but it is apparent that you do. You blame him for his mistakes and everyone else's. And your feelings are so strong against him that you can't even say his name. Like I said you guys must have had a bad breakup.

[Maacoshark]

Oh well it was a bad game. We should have destroyed this team physically.

Damn right, we do absolutely horrendous against teams who play that faggy-pussy-stick “game”, it’s more like a figure skaters in a book club.


Yet year afte year game after game, mo adjustments.  “Skill” doesn’t beat that gay crap because it’s designed to beat skill.  What it designed to beat is heavy, violent to wear down break a smaller and  physically inferior team. (IOW a team with a roster and style like a Pacific team would assuredly win a series in 5 or less)

No, I understand your point completely. Even when you agree with someone you've got to be an argumentive ass about it.

   OK I just wrote a novel in response to your comment calling me an ass. I decided not to post it. Yes I am very offended but decided I wouldn't resort to that kind of conduct.
   I guess one good thing about posting a long message on a messageboard is that it gives you time to think before you hit the send button. I don't want to get into a childish insulting match. I disagree with some of your views and you disagree mine. That's fine.
I'm not going to start name calling because we have differences of opinion.
