What just happened? I'm working and can't watch. Gamecast says they just scored like 3 PPG in a row, but only showed one penalty on Timonen

2 goals off our D, Seguin got 3 of them. Team sucks, NEXT

Damn...Im even more annoyed we won those games at the end last season now!!!!!!!!!!!

Cause a rookie would turn this season around?

This Seguin line is everything it was advertised as.

Meanwhile, Hartnell just fell down.

Even when the game was tied the Stars were getting a ton of grade A chances.
They just finished a few of them.

Even with their two most experienced D missing they are the much better team today.

They weren't PPGs...the Benn-Seguin-Nichuskin line just went crazy over a 90-second span, abused at least two of our D-pairs

Wonder if any of them are getting 8 mill a year.

The Couturier line is way over matched vs that line right now..
- opeth_pa

Really tough matchup... Couturier not fast enough to catch Seguin, Downie and Read too small to handle the big wingers.

8 year deal

yes please for 64 million

Nope..

1. This team would be better with Nischkuskin
2. If they would have lost those games then Lavi would have been gone sooner.

Moot point and this season has already turned around given that when they lose this game they will 1 game under 500 after starting out 1 - 7.

I'm so confused. How can the Stars have 4 PP goals and only 1 penalty was called in the period?

Yeah -- it's that simple. That's just a tough matchup for Couts -- as you said earlier, Seguin's no slouch out there

Seguin benn and Nich skating circles around the Flyers
3 very quick goals, winning the board battles or odd man rushes.

oooohhhh. Gamecast for NHL.com and ESPN both called them all PPGs

It seems like you had a typo there with your response.

Nichushkin is a man child

Benn is a beast

Seguin is just so skilled

Other than that our offense isn't very good.

One of the best lines in the league really
Skill and size

Who got crushed by Nichuskin on the wall and gave up the puck to Seguin for that shot at the blue line? I couldn't tell -- was that Read?

Think maybe read should get a shot up on the too line with giroux and voracek?

#20 in green almost scored several times today
Whitney should have a goal or two also

This team was likely taking a defenseman no matter where they landed, draftwise.

And, right or wrong, I especially doubt they would have taken a Russian in the first round.

Hartnell down I believe

Read never saw him coming. In real time, I thought it was late hit, but maybe I need to see it again, because I'm pretty sure Read didn't have the puck when he got hit.

Ah. The "4" might've looked like a "9" on the replay

Either way Nichuskin isn't making a difference on this team... People put way too much into the draft, when it takes about 10 years to really grade a team's given draft.
