Last 6 games:

Corsi: 54.6%
Shots: 56.6% (223-171)
High Danger: 53.9% (77-66)
Expected Goals: 53.0% (19.9 - 17.6)
Actual Goals: 39.5% (15 - 23)

Shooting %: 6.73%
Save %: .866
PDO: .933

They are working hard, just squeezing sticks too tight now and can’t get a big save when they need it with some softies thrown in there to top it off.

Nice! I'll take prize boobies all day long.

Like I say I only caught the third but the Flames looked good but unlucky. Markstrom did not look good.

and if that were enough to make a save too difficult, games would end 9-8

I watched the replay. Hischier had to shoot it cause Weegar cut off his angle to walk in alone. Goaltending like this isn't going to take us anywhere. He lets in a soft one and or a back breaker every game. Whether the expectation is too much to ask for or not, you have to elevate your game and help the team in front of you find a way. Sub .900 save percentage and being the 2nd best goalie every game is getting old.

Personally I prefer last year where they just didn’t have one

Huberdeau was to be our replacement for Gaudreau. So far, he can't hold a candle to Gaudreau.

Gaudreau could take the play up the ice and make things happen. Huberdeau has been a no-show.

1986 also had 16 out of 21 teams make the playoffs.

I don't care if Hrudey was right, and Nicco fooled Markstrom into thinking it was going up high... 1) he's a veteran goalie making $6M a year, it should be harder to fool him than that; 2) the shot was slow enough and from far enough out that he should have been able to get something in front of it; 3) keep your friggin pads closed and on the ice.

and? markstrom played for the high shot based on the shooters hands, in this case the shooter got him with a little move. A perfect shot dude.

100% Agree.

Markstrom - your team has lost 5 straight games. Time to earn your pay cheque and win one for the team. Isn't he the 2nd highest paid player on the team?

Wonder if management made a mistake of epic proportions?

Huberdeau didn't even play why are we blaming him?

He was great yesterday in his limited ice time.

So we just need to lose 5 more?
