The Coyotes are 7-2-1 against pacific division teams. Those 2 losses? Calgary. #### you Calgary.

Quote:
Seems like it's been forever since we beat these guys.
Does it matter who they put on the ice?
Gaudreau hasn't scored a goal in his past eight games after scoring 10 in his previous 11. This pretty much guarantees he gets a a hattie.
Former Coyote Michael Stone out with a blood clot. Yikes! Get well soon.

Crouse and Fisch need to just park in front of Smith and get in his head. They don't need to run him over or anything, just get under his skin.

Calgary absolutely destroyed us a month ago

Quote:
7-1 and 6-1 this season. The 6-1 loss were also a matinee game. I don't have a good feeling about this.
Btw, why this early on a monday? I won't complain though, 10 PM start time for me.

The b'damned Flames on Washington's ceremonial birthday? Come on, NHL's scheduling office!

Quote:
Haha this will be an interesting game... also one of the games I had as a probable L while looking through the Yote's schedule... would be huge for hopes to turn it into a W as well.
I'm just hoping it's not like the other 2 games against them this year.

Is there really a game in 5 minutes? I'm not awake enough for this yet.

So stupid. I don’t like our chances against Calgary. I think we can easily beat Edmonton. Pickard should get today so we can just hang on and hope we do something, with Kuemper playing tomorrow. You want to beat the teams below you and I don’t like Pickard playing tomorrow

An Old Friend

Give us an old school Mike Smith dive. Have somebody go behind the net, just lightly tap him on the arm and see his gear explode off his body. He gets a penalty for embellishment, of course.
|
Quote:
|
I’m sure i am not alone in the lack of surprise that Smith let in a high glove shot or that it happened shortly after he got bumped. What does surprise me is that it took a period and a half for anyone to get close enough to make that contact. He played here for how long?? Honestly everyone knows if you get in his face and bump him a little he crumbles and that his high glove is Swiss cheese. Why did it take so long when there are several players who played with Smith and should have known that script by heart???

Quote:
Are we trying to help smith with his rigth pad saves? Always the same place.

Quote:

Somebody duct tape Smith's mask to his ****ing head. One little nudge and it flies into space.
|
Quote:
|
Somebody go 5-hole on Smith for old times sake.
|
Quote:
|
Mike Smith is such a ****head. He’s been brutal this year and hasn’t done anything to contribute to Calgary’s success. I hope he’s traded to Detroit at the deadline.

Derek Ryan being good at hockey

Not a great start to the game.
Let's Go Yotes!

Looks like it could be a long afternoon.

The Calgary Injury Bug Curse
Quote:
|
It was playing against these same Calgary Flames near the end of the 2017 season, when a dirty hit by Michael Frolik put Jacob Chychrun on the surgery table and out of action. So, once again they got a stick in OEL’s legs, as he went crashing into the side boards. I’m not suggesting retaliation, but asking if any player or coach remembers the Flames’ history? They seem to play awfully tentative against this team.
|
Quote:
|
I don’t remember the specific play you are referring to, but generally the Coyotes are soft and unlikely to retaliate even against a dirty hit. Not saying we need to be broad Street bullies of old, but there should be a few guys willing to drop the gloves to defend each other
|
Quote:
|
I’ll just be happy to finish this game without losing a knee to the Flames
|
Giordano movin’ and groovin’

Can we just survive against this team for once? This game is waaaaay more important for us than for them.
|
Quote:
|
What a wonderful time for a hockey game.
|
Quote:
|
Lackadaisical forecheck and such poor passing. It's like we don't remember what the Flames have done to us the last two times we didn't show up against them.
|
Quote:
|
So we know OEL is already playing hurt, what did he injure now? Seems like he grabbed the leg, though I guess we don't know if that's the same one.
|
Quote:
Man, pickard could have had that.
But the defense has 90% of fault there.
|
Quote:
|
You can't just let Gio walk in all alone and do what he likes. Piss weak defense and Pickard got himself out of position.
|
Quote:
|
Pickard made a save while looking in the complete opposite direction

Dang. They just score at will.

lucky.
just lucky for him that the puck got deflected and landed there.

Come on Yotes... Gotta stop those breakdowns from happening.
|
Quote:
|
Awful defense and bad goaltending on that one.
|
Quote:

Pickards time with our goalie coaches and taking the month hiatus did him wonders.

Frolik all alone

Goligo with a three turnovers shift

He did the Goligo trick??

Quote:
Seems like a nice time for a cheeky Brad Richardson goal.
edit: oh nevermind, the game is over instead.
|
Quote:
|
Defensive breakdowns but these are stoppable pucks. Hill is better than Pickard.
|
Quote:
Hammer threw it straight into Weal and it bounced to Frolik

AHL goalies normally struggle against NHL players.

Well that goal was ####ing embarrassing. Pitter patter boys.

Backs into the EN

Way to completely give up there Goligoski. Gtfoh
|
Quote:
And that why i am not a fan of playing with an empty net and taking the goalie of.
It almost never pays off.
|
Quote:
|
Effort was there, but two D breakdowns and questionable goaltending from Pickard killed it in the end. Throw it out and focus on tomorrow, which is a must win.
|
Quote:
|
At least we only play them one more time this year. Maybe that game we can hold them to only 4 goals.
|
Quote:
|
Every time i watch a game live we loose. Man i should not watch those games and stick to the highlights and THG.
|
Quote:
|
That was a good Flames team. I think the goalie choice was correct - Darcy tomorrow when we have a better chance to win. Not sure switching goalies gets us the W today

A Cheerful Outlook

Watching the Arizona CGY game
Arizona is going to annihilate Edmonton tomorrow lol

Quote:
|
fold the team. or put it in the AHL
|
Quote:
And to think, prior to the Klefbom injury, we would've hit the 20 win mark on the earliest date since the 1985 regular season. Without looking, this stretch of hockey over the past two months has been one of the worst the league has likely seen in some time.
Ken Hitchcock should have stayed retired.

Oil Change 2: This Time We Mean It
|
Quote:
I can't believe how ****ing bad this team is when McDavid, Draisaitl and RNH are going to have career seasons. We have McDavid in contention for the Art Ross and Draisaitl in contention for the Richard. It takes a special kind of incompetence to assemble a roster this bad around those players.
I guess a top 5 pick this year might be a blessing in disguise if a new GM can come in and surround these guys with the right pieces. As embarrassing as it is, I'm cheering for losses.
|
Quote:
|
Bad news: We play 3 straight games the night after Calgary plays that team (Yotes, Islanders, and Ducks). Not good for the yearly tank job
