ive said all season its our defense that is the problem. Weve been top 5 in scoring all season and now we are number one. Why do you think sekara and funk wre out there for most of the third period. Tallinder and lydman have struggled all season. ---

He single handedly almost gave us a second goal in the first period when he took the puck away form the goalie behind the net and gave it to vanek but one of their players slid to stop the shot with his leg. then a couple minutes later he got in on a big brawl. hes at least making people notice him in a positive way lately. ---

> [@97\_B18b1](#): > > Why do you think sekara and funk wre out there for most of the third period. Sorry maybe I didn’t watch the same game as you… but Sekera was a +5 whats this bullshit that he wasn’t playing the 3rd period. Weber and Sekera were fucking Rockin. Levcalier was a -1 after he was +3, meaning he was on the ice for 4 goals that the sabres scored… Also meaning Sekera was on the ice… Sekera and Weber shut the big line down. Ok hockey basics The puck goes in the net thats a goal. if the goalie stops it thats a save. Miller hasn’t been the king either. We have our win streak miller is on. Today miller wasn’t on our #1 offense picked it up and won it for us. and Lydman is shifting into campbell’s spot he had a great chance in front of the net he looked like a forward lol. Tallinder is playing well too … Lydman and Tallinder are much stronger now, sure they struggled a little bit. But that slump ugh… was everyone’s fault ---

> [@97Ranger](#): > > um how did vanek have a trick… every article ive read says he had 2 goals check the stats again. he tipped the roy goal 😃 i dont think lydman has played nearly as well defensively as i would have liked overall this season. he was wayyyyyy out of position on one of lecavalier’s goals. in my mind, he is a solid #3, but by no means a solid 1 or 2. ---

if thibault sees icetime before the end of the regular season, it will be because we somehow clinched a birth with games left to play, or we are out of the playoff race alltogether. neither seem likely, so i doubt he will get any icetime at all. he should have had better than an 850 sv% when he played, then maybe ruff would have let him see more ice.
