Blashill liked E's turnover so much that now he is on a second pairing. Kronwall said he is dealing with minor stuff, not knee related, and expects to be in the lineup later this week.

Kronner's groin is still sore so maybe in Thursday or Friday. If Howard plays well in Dallas tomorrow again I'd start him Thursday in Arizona and let Mrazek start Friday in Vegas. He's looking pretty good to me.

Very surprised Mrazek is starting meaning he will play 2 out of 3. Just when Howard is so hot...

We hardly had any time in Dallas zone. Pretty good pace to this one and only 2 penalties. Down 0-2 after 1. Plenty of hockey 🏒 left! I’m in Dallas so blacked out on FSD. Man, I miss Dave Strader, who would be calling the game

The 3rd Dallas goal was super soft. Mrazek has to be better than that.,.down by 2 to start the 3rd.
Dallas is skating well tonight, we have to be better if we want a point outta this one, gonna be tough.

Howard should have been in goal. No reason to start Mrazek. Howard had two days of rest after two wins...no reason at all.
That third goal on Mrazek was a killer. He look like the same goalie from last season, capable of hot dog saves but in the long run you can't trust him. To play him was a Blashill mistake, his first of the season.
And to play Sheahn on the PP is another Blashill mistake. A front of the net guy ?? the guy is 6 3 but can't stand on his feet as soon as he gets wack.
Pathetic to play this guy when we expect a goal..HE CAN'T SCORE !!!
Mantha was floating like an ice capade for two periods, got better in the third, more intense and got reward with a goal. Mantha is not my type of player, he will need to learn to play hard all the time.
We were intense and played hard and probably deserve a better faith, but Dallas was hungry too.
Let's move on...

I agree 100%. Not too smart of coaching No need to cool down a hot goalie coming off of 2 days rest. As I said previously they should have started him Tue, Thur and rest on Friday. If you think about the 3rd goal...that could have been a difference between walking out of Dallas with a point, maybe two vs nothing. I don't also get why Sheahan got power play time and why Abby Normal was on the ice when trying to tie it up with the netminder pulled -- all while Larkin was sitting on the bench. I don't know why Witkowski even dressed...he got 4:16 TOI and took a stupid penalty. We were flat most of the night, decent push in the 3rd but if Mrazek didnt cough up the cheapy the game would have been interesting starting the 3rd 1-2 instead of 1-3. Howard should have been in goal. No reason to start Mrazek. Howard had two days of rest after two wins...no reason at all. That third goal on Mrazek was a killer. He look like the same goalie from last season, capable of hot dog saves but in the long run you can't trust him. To play him was a Blashill mistake, his first of the season.

I actually like our team. It's the coaching that sucks. And I think it's the coaching that drove AA away. I don't think he'd play here if they paid him $6 mil/year.
