Post Game Newser

We had that kind of effort against Montreal, but tonight we got some bounces and pucks went in.

Ducks lost their discipline and we took advantage.

Gustavsson made huge saves.

Ducks first goal should have been dis-allowed. One of the better bench penalties I’ve ever taken.

We skated harder tonight and drew some penalties. They made some bad decisions when we were on the PP. They were getting frustrated. If you get a 5-3 you have to score.

Stempniak got rewarded, the only 5 on 5 goal.

We didn’t take too many bad penalties, but we took a couple.

Got to learn to turn the other cheek a little bit.

The last 2 games we played well enough to win and that’s usually a sign that a streak is coming to an end. It was only a matter of time before we could get a lead.

Yanno... I just hope there isn't a huge let down against Dallas

Who are actually playing fairly well right now.

Anaheim has been shit so far this year, especially Getzlaf.

We won’t get a zillion PP opportunities against the Stars.

Plus they have Eriksson, Neal, Richardson, Morrow, Ribiero, etc. They can throw more offense at us than Corey Perry and Bobby Ryan.

That future is on Wednesday

and a 1-7-1 record is still pretty pathetic. Even if they do have the 2nd best PP in the NHL.

They still have the worst goaltending – Gustavsson’s save percentage actually got WORSE tonight.

If Gusto has more games like the last two

I’m not too worried about SV%. None of the three goals can really be blamed on him, especially the first one where he was knocked down.

Ah but suddenly the numbers don't matter because our offense scored a ridiculous total.

Truth is, we would have lost based on 5-on-5 play. We were outscored 2-1 when it was evens.

Just trying to be realistic.

people weren’t happy with a sub .900 save percentage with Toskala, and Gustavsson’s save percentage is around .893 right now.

After 2 games; plus, we didn’t need the saves at the end of the game as much as at the start. If the Monster didn’t make that amazing save and the couple other above average ones we might have been down after 1.

by Shield on Oct 27, 2009 1:19 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

True

But, I think people were concerned with giving up weak, confidence deflating goals. Gustavsson at least made key saves tonight when they were needed.

But, we’ll see how it keeps coming. Like I said, more performances like this, and I think his numbers will improve.

by FiftyMissionCap on Oct 27, 2009 1:19 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

haha, yah, i know where your coming from, two and a half games is also a terribly small sample number and one goal either way causes a pretty good change in the numbers

This is true

and he made some crazy saves… but a lot of that was his own positional misplay. He needs to work on being square to the shooter a bit more… but yeah… he’ll do well I think (hope?)

Just don't expect

5 power play goals on 11 power plays next game. In which case, Gustavsson needs to stop more than 25 of 28 shots to get the win in all likelihood if we want another W.

as long as he is making the saves he should be, and pulls out a game saver every now and then, the leafs will have a chance to win every night, and that makes me happy. If poni covered perry more, exelby didnt bump Marchant and ryan wasnt left alone at the side of the net, well yea
