NHL 15-16 Regular Season Thread: F I R E _ T H E R R I E N

Perds win!

7-1-1 and top of the West

And one of the two losses is from us

Also, just saw the Pens-Caps highlights. Fleury's saves were unreal. He could've easily had the entire top 10 plays for NHL Live.

This felt like a pre Trotz Caps team. Not good. Probably the long layoff and not getting anything past Fleury in the 2nd

The reason it felt like this is simple - movement through the zones. Pre-Trotz caps hockey is typified by the dump 'n' chase. Lack of C depth and generally weak systems led to the inability to manuever into the opponent's zone. Last night, they just could not get the puck through the blue lines.

I credit the Penguins for playing very well defensively, and I discredit Caps players for being sloppy passers the entire night. I also discredit NHL scheduling.

Caps were also terrible on the dots, which didn't help things.

Working the nightshift tonight, but it should be pretty dead. So I should be able to watch the game lol.

Fleury just played very well combined with a third period collapse from the Caps; I wouldn't sweat it too much

We were doing a transfer order to our Montreal location and they arranged the shipping. So a driver came out from a tiny little area by Montreal today for the pick-up and in very broken English asked if he was in the right spot. I think I made his day when I replied "Oui, et j'ai parle francais un petit peu." Got bugging him that since he was already in Edmonton, he could just head downtown and watch the Habs/Oilers game tonight. When he left, all he said was "Good luck tonight, may the best team win. HAHAHAHA Go HABS!" and closed the door. LOL
