Honestly can Q put trust in Crawford for game 3? His confidence gets shaken fairly easily.. Feel bad for the guy how well he played in the regular season only to shit the bed in the first round.

Well, the simple answer is, the regular season means jack and shit as of the puck drop in the playoffs. I don't care if you don't let in a goal all season, if you let in 9 fucking goals in 4 periods, you sit. End of discussion.

Also.... Bickell and Rosi are fucking worthless.

Honestly either goalie goes back home and wins so I don't care. But cuminsky has to play for rosi

It sounds so simple... but Cumiskey has played D on the right side when? I don't think he has for any professional level even his overseas or AHL moments. And it's the same case for Kimmo too, so you're basically settled with the depth of Rundblad for RD and Cumiskey for LD

We'll see what happens for game 3. If Q makes the switch he better be damn sure he's confident starting Darling throughout the Playoffs. You don't bench a starter and go back to him later in the series or next round.

True. But 2 things. He can't be any worse, and I only say him because I think he's the only other option except for runbad and I already know what he gives so why not.

Vermette needs to play on Sunday. We brought him in for the playoffs, he needs to play.

The regular season means jack shit, I wanna go down with the most talented players on the ice

Why is it that whenever the Hawks do something stupid, Versteeg is always in the middle of it?

ETA: Or Shaw lol...

This ... Keith should have maybe tried neutralizing Forsberg and not have been so focused on clearing the puck to the corner ... let a team mate do that. . .

Plus it is interesting that Nordstrom is apparently more valuable dressed than Vermette ... interesting theory ... not sure it would be true unless someone stole Vermette's skates.

But Quennville is immune to criticism because of two Cups right? Hey Joel, do you see what happens when you **** A STRANGER IN THE ASS?

Here's how it typically goes, shaw always starts it, but steeg finds his way into an already existing melee.

Sure you do. When you are one of the all-time greatest coaches ever you can do whatever you want and have the cup wins to back it up.

Let me rephrase, you don't do that with Crawford. If Darling comes in game 3 and pitched a shutout or some spectacular game like Game 1 or what he did against the Rangers you ride him out.

I'm sure we're all a bit pissed about this, but biggest thing is that we got the 1 win in Nashville.

Precisely. Nashville is an extremely difficult place to win one game, let alone two.
