Crappy ending, but hopefully a learning experience for the team.

4 on 4 overtime PP they could have put out Eriksson or Jake who have both shown something this game, vrs Goldobin who has shown squat.
I like that Green is giving him every opportunity to succeed. That’s what we want for our kids. Green gets blasted for benching kids who make mistakes. With Goldobin he’s giving him every chance possible. He has so much skill and showed great chemistry with Pettersson. He almost had a couple tonight but has gone back to posts and crossbars.

I’m frustrated with him. His play under pressure. His passes in the O zone. His shot is off. But he’s had stretches where it looked like he was figuring it out. We really do need to know if he fits our plans going forward so I’m ok with the playing he gets. His minutes will curtail as the wounded return. But ya, he can be frustrating to watch.

Goldobin has been easily a top nine forward on the team since the 1st game. Not sure why so many throw shade his way.

If you are referring to the shootout I agree. Horvat HAS to shoot. That was idiotic on Greens part

Forgot what a bad temper I had. Poor coffee cup.

Question Green having Pettersson on so late, trying to protect a lead. Kid can do almost anything but a little early for that.
At least five or six guys better adept at a shoot out than Goldy.
Green really has to learn how to make better use of his time-outs.

Yeah Goldy only leads the team in assists with 8 so far, he just needs to get a lucky goal to get going scoring wise as he's 4th on the team in shots.

He has a creative game which helps him playing with someone like EP.

The shootout tho TG needs to refine.

Goldy is creative and speedy enough to make plays out there to keep up, you think Archibald would be pop gunning moves with dekes and edges with some give and go's out there? lol nah.

Make that everything.

Roussel would have as many points as, and more goals than Goldobin if he got that much time playing with Pettersson, and he would at least provide some protection.

Ah the ol' Granlund argument, that the Granlund haters used back in the day.

"You give him minutes & decent linemates and he'll get points" but isn't that the point?

Give a player an opportunity to succeed and they produce, is that not success :?:

Goldy also basically leads the team in CF%, (team is controlling the puck possession) with Goldy on the ice.

I agree, Half Cut. Goldobin can frustrate me cause I think he can producecmore, he is a very slick player and the only other player on the team who can play Petterssons style of game. He’s very close to being very good

Yeah you're right, Canuck fans should complain about Bruin goalies!

IMPO you need to see a psychiatrist about your love for Marx.... Mr He's Better Than Miller.

BTW his GAA is 3.24 and his save% is 8.98 this year, how much longer can this team outscore his crappiness?

I was screaming at my TV: "Goldobin over Horvat??!!!"

My TV just stared back sheepishly like a deer caught in the headlights...
