Kessel needs to cut to the middle and shoot.. His skating and vision would easily throw off defenders.
Use the wrist shot but cut to the middle and shoot in traffic. He does it like once a game and it's always a better shot than when he's flying down the wing.
Washington should be an easy W if this team shows up and doesn't use the fatigue excuse.
I think our new systems will help. If Kessel can regain his scoring touch tonight then I feel we're going to demolish the Canes.
I remember either last season or two seasons ago, we were leading against Carolina, and Phaneuf pinched in. We were leading and he pinched, like we really needed our captain to give up his defensive responsibilities to try to get another goal. Eric Staal ended up on a breakaway and scored. I always blamed Wilson and his stupid run-and-gun philosophy.
That's not going to happen tonight. If it's late in the game and we're leading by one goal tonight, then Carlyle will get the boys to buckle down and secure the victory.
You've gotta be for the tank or against it at this point. The way this season works, you can go .500 until the last week of the season, 3 game winning streak and be a 7 seed.
I'm never going to support tank nation until we are clearly not going to challenge for a playoff spot. At that point I convert into the bottom out guy.
I've been watching a bunch of different teams games on GCL and alot of the time the streams aren't availible until 7:15-7:20. So was just curious as to how long after actual gamestart the delay was. I know the B's home games start around the same time as you 7:05-7:10.

Depends what kind of pre-game time-waster they have going on at the arena.

At least for me, GCL is always about 3-5 minutes behind the actual game, I've had a few goals spoiled for me by checking twitter or this site while watching
Lol. You guys walking the line kill me.

Agreed. Usual 92 points translate into 56, or 3 games above .500 this season.
On the other hand, I'm looking at standings and there are a lot of "weak" teams that are well above .500 and some of good teams behind us that will rise eventually. Losing two games with 2 goals leads and Buf on their back-to-back night could be costly as there are those 3 games above .500 right there for you.
Only hope is that we will get even better defensively learning RC system and continue getting good goal-tending and secondary scoring (and maybe even main scoring eventually).
