GDT: PHI @ CBJ || NWA || 7:00 PM || GM 77

[CBJ goalie]

That's the Severson we wanted when we signed him.
He's playing solid lately

 

[VABUCK]

Blankenburg shows he belongs.

 

[CBJ goalie]

D scoring all the goals

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Blanks is so good. I just wish he could stay healthy

 

[MoeBartoli]

The night of the DMen

 

[Indy18]

Torts is going to tear apart that locker room here in the intermission

 

[Sweetnut]

I see Nylander is working out great for you guys. Do you see him as a first line talent going forward? He's worth at least a qualifying offer, right?

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Don’t want to jinx him but jets constant improvement year in and year out is really cool. Definitely put himself on the map that he wasn’t on probably 2-3 years ago.

 

[MoeBartoli]

There seems to be a common denominator to bad goaltending outings.

 

[GoJackets1]

Gudbranson has been low key super solid for awhile now.

 

[MoeBartoli]

I hate the swoon they’ve experienced as I’d love to see Torts lead his team to the playoffs.

We have no idea if he can keep it up. We'll sign him for next year and he'll have to keep proving himself.

He still makes massive mistakes with the puck, but other than that, agreed

I give Thiessen some credit working with Jet. Kivlenieks also showed the same kind of improvement with Thiessen also. He is a pretty decent goalie coach for us.

 

[MoeBartoli]

Is 6 goals by DMen a CBJ record?

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Yikes flyers.

 

[CBJ goalie]

Is 6 goals by DMen a CBJ record?

Yes

The Dolumbus Blue Dackets tonight

 

[Grouchy]

So, we need our forwards to play shut out defense and our goalie to win more faceoffs for success ??

 

[GoJackets1]

6 goals by defensemen and 0 by forwards is pretty funny.

Not watching but just looked at the scoresheet. Fascinating that all our goals have been from our defense. What’s even more fascinating is Werenski’s goal is the teams 1st PP goal from the defense all year.

Werenski is what he is. He absolutely lacks intensity and his overall defense awareness isn’t on the same level as the “best” in the league. While he’s a good “two way defenseman”, his impact comes more from his offensive game. I think Severson and Gudbranson are both underrated. Like what both guys bring, although I really believe Severson is VERY similar to Werenski and brings some of the same negative qualities. Same with Bean, I think he’s a serviceable bottom pairing guy, though I’ve cooled on my “hype” of him being much more than that. I think all of Werenski/Severson and Bean should get looks on the PP, and I think Mateychuk should (and/or WILL) come into camp next year and possibly look like the best option out of everyone. Again, with our 2 “top prospects” on D who are joining the team or not, the build isn’t right. On D or at forward.

I don’t think Provorov is the right fit AT ALL and should be looked to be moved for a different style defenseman and I wholeheartedly believe Jiricek should be trade bait for a center or involved in some sort of “blockbuster” package for god knows who or what. Blankenburg is a good versatile #7 who can come in and is capable to fill in at different spots.

Pencilling in Sillinger as the 1C for next year is reminiscent of those who did that for Patty Laine, imo.

 

[Cowumbus]

Really hope we aren’t the reason that the Pens make the playoffs

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Not watching but just looked at the scoresheet

Yeah, that’s about right.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Also good news: Cleveland wins and ends their skid. With help potentially on the way with Meyer (and maybe Brindley?)

 

[CBJ goalie]

Someone is getting a Subban jersey,.
Poor guy never even got to play a game for the CBJ yet, lol

 

[Cyclones Rock]

The Flyers being bad would be the reason. The bottom has fallen out on them. Put a fork in them cuz they r done.
