pfffff.   Lindy has lost three in a row, and this one IS on him.
It was good game, we had multiple scoring chances that didn't go.  Wild is a good team and we handed them one goal - that's the difference in this game
SO choices were poor IMO, but hindsight is always 20-20.  Strome - yeah he's on my list.  I was surprised by PLC going second, but honestly I'm okay with that - he has worked his ass off this year and i think some of that is just giving him a chance to bend the twine.
Ovi....OOF.  I would never put him in top 3 of a SO.  I get it ...its Flower in net and Ovi has owned him, but....
I'd put McMike out there for SO, that kid has the hands...he's been cold lately but SO is a skills battle and McMike has them.

Oh, and Ovi scored, so that's good.  Two goals in three games back so far.  Not to shabby for an old fuck who hasn't played a game in 6 weeks

I understand Ovi way more than I understand Dubois.. Ovi is, well, Ovi.. Dubois? I mean, we know he works hard. We see it every game. But bro can't put the puck in the net. Maybe reward him in a game he actually scored in? McMike makes way more sense. Wilson, Proty, Miro, maybe Chycky? Just don't get Dubois being in the 1st 3 shooters.. Bad decision by coach.

And it's getting time to pick a #1 and quit fucking around. We're not scoring enough lately to overcome brainfarts in goal.

They tried to nurse the one goal lead way too much.  They were badly outplayed in the 3rd until the last 5-6 minutes.  This has been a trend for several weeks now.  They spend way too much time in their own end and not enough forechecking which is what we did so well the first two months.  The shootout was a disaster.  I wouldn't have put out any of those three guys.  We know Ovie sucks in the SO yet he keeps getting called.  I'd have used Protas, McMichael, Wilson, Mangiapane, Chychrun, Sandin or even Carlson.
