GDT: The "Where's the Puck?" Edition- 12/22/10 Predators @ Blackhawks

[I Will Son]

Smithson why cant you finish that.....that is a prime example why Wilson should not be on that line. Im am very pissed bout that decision

[Everlong]

Just tuning in now.
What was the deal with the refs fixing the net webbing?

[golfmade]

BSU leading Utah going into the half. Hopefully Preds can tie it up soon.

[Everlong]

Wilson on the 4th? Obrien with Weber? Bad shifts or trying to juggle the lines?

Suter with a big hit then a stupid penalty. arg.

Could not agree more! It is frustrating to watch him jump into open areas and not get the puck back, and that pass, Sullivan would have put it in! Still trying to figure out what Trotz was thinking with this one. Who knows, maybe they will surprise us

Need to kill this, stupid penalty for Suter to take.

Smithson and Ward cant seem to keep a puck on there stick for more than 5 seconds or make a decent pass. And we all know they cant shoot, hes wasting Wilsons talent. Congrats Trotz

It would be different if he was in a slump but Wilson has picked up his game, and Chicago is a team you want to get as many scoring chances as you can.

Skille

[worstfaceoffmanever]

Nobody was preventing that one.

Oh, look, O'Brien took another unnecessary penalty.

[Everlong]

Got lucky there, knock on wood. Point blank, sheesh.

[Reviled]

Refs want a Chigaco win for xmas. Game over.

[golfmade]

Post.

This is turning ugly.

[worstfaceoffmanever]

That might have been the single most boneheaded play I've seen all season. Was that Suter that gave the puck right to Brouwer in the slot?

[I Will Son]

I think im done with this game..

Trotz dropped acid?

[triggrman]

Belak needs to earn some money here, they're taking too many cheap shots.l

[Everlong]

I don't know how there was space in the top corner for Skille, knowing how tall lindback is. Nice shot, nothing much he could do I guess.

[Everlong]

Powerplay time!

[worstfaceoffmanever]

For those that missed the second period, here's a recap:

Maybe another reason the Preds have trouble with offense. Had a good thing going....better change it up.
The last powerplay, Hornqvist just jams to the net with the puck. Never looked up, Sullivan and Wilson were both open for a pass and clear shot. Wrap arounds work about .5 percent of the time.

[Hustlechuck24]

Lost a lot of respect for Toews. He dove like a fish on that push from suter. What a *****.

Trotz is pissing me off this game. Only the Predators would lose offense when a former leading scorer comes back. Why move wilson? He was doing fine!

Yeah, I thought he was going to bump it out a few feet to Wilson right in front. But the first pass could have gone to Wilson for the one timer instead of to Hornqvist.

16-33-71 skated together for a shift. I figured Trotz would try something more sensible once things were desperate.

#### another goal for them.

[I Will Son]

I miss radulov

[golfmade]

Skille is a Preds killer.

[I Will Son]

sk got it
