Post Game Talk: Opening night @ Florida

[HisIceness]

Corvo is terrible. Team played like crap 1st period. Muller needs to learn when to call timeouts.

Anything else?

[PublicEnemy]

5-1 loss.


I think that about covers it.

[SkinnerStaal]

Chantal. McCabe.

[tarheelhockey]

This team is going nowhere unless Cam Ward shows up to play.

[Novacane]

Sangs is a forward.

[Gr8Dan]

Corvo just needs to be waived and sent to Charlotte

[Anton Bubchuk]

Sign Gomez for the blueline.

With two new big names in Semin and JStaal putting in their first appearance alongside Boychuk and Dalpe you expected a few offensive end hiccups and sour notes.

Short term I knew our production might take some time to get going. Long term I knew our D men might provide plenty of opportunities to engage in 5-4 and 4-3 games. We aren't going to be shutting good teams down.

But holy ****ing **** did I misremember or block out how bad Joe Corvo is when thrown into an already weak mix.

I didn't think Ward would necessarily be lights out, but c'mon.

[Stahl2Stall]

We have no defense, seriously why do we need 5 offensive D.

Need to trade for Marc sooner

More like Chantel McBabe amirite?

[msgtcody]

Montreal called. They want to swap kaberle for corvo straight up. What do we do?

Usual excuses for cam ward:
1 Blame defense
2 cam ward plays better when he plays a lot
3 If he has played a lot, or the season is over half way over, he is just over worked (ignore the previously mentioned idea that he is supposed to play better when he plays a lot)
4 start back to 1

Don't forget the 1st and 3rd.

Good god was that the 5-1est 5-1 loss I have ever seen.

Bring back Bob Harwood.

[Citizen Cane]

I don't know if this was covered in GDT, but Chantel had kind of a series of errors and malfunctions pregame (including her light catching on fire!). I'm gonna cut her some slack and see how she does. That probably flustered her. Not the way she planned on starting her first night I'm sure.

[tarheelhockey]

Raise your hand if you're already sick of Chantel chat.

[Novacane]

I don't know what's funnier. People starting off creaming their pants over a girl on the tv or people turning around and souring on her. I don't think she's that much of an integral part of the broadcast team to have 50+ posts dedicated to her.

[Lazyking]

I'm not. We have two long days til the next game. Breaking down Chantel is um easier to deal with.

[halleJOKEL]

I was sick of Chantel the second she started talking.

[tarheelhockey]

Jordan Staal led all players with 8 hits.

Going to the main board to announce we won the trade.

[Psyduck]

Chantel doesn't matter (although she's a babe). Let's all talk about how bad the Canes played.

Your job is to lower expectations so that I'm extremely happy when they win a game.

Go.

[HisIceness]

There's going to be a lot of awkward interviews revolving around Chantel I bet.
