One thing is certain though,we won't win the league if we only have 13 shots in many games ! Some may see this as overly negative or the latest bout of Panthers bashing but in reality, over the course of a 52 game season, its spot on. Of course it is but I bet were not restricted to 13 shots again this season.

In reality it is highly unlikely that we will average 13 shots on goal over the season. If you think differently I am willing to place a wager with you. Talk about looking searching for the negatives where you can.......

Talk about looking searching for the negatives where you can....... What are you on? 1.Where did I say I thought it likely that we'd average 13 on goal throughout the season? I was just agreeing (frowned upon I know) with Iginla. 2. Where am I searching for negatives? My review of the game had no negatives at all. I even praised the beer.

I am saying that the claim that we will have such a low shot on goal count in most of our game is ludicrous.

I am saying that the claim that we will have such a low shot on goal count in most of our game is ludicrous. Nobody has said we will average 13 shots over the season. All we said was IF we did,then we wouldn't win the league. Some people seemed happy that this defensive game was going to win us something,but IF we can only manage 13 shots per game it's not going to be good enough. By the usual average goalie saves percentage of 89-92% then 13 shots is going to give us about ONE goal per game.....that's winning nothing ! Then there's the supposed defensive game plan. If we did that at home last night,what are we going to do tonight AWAY in Sheffield......come out all guns blazing It doesn't make sense. I think we got caught on the hop last night and this defence first game plan thing was just an excuse,because we basically got battered,but somehow won a game 1-0.

We adjusted for the 3rd period after being completely outplayed in the 2nd. Appeared to be running far shorter shifts in the 3rd & Cardiff also tired a little imo.
Cardiff played strong four line hockey, they were incessant & very impressive apart from the finishing touch. I believe we went to Cardiff last season a few times & had a similar strong performance with nothing to show for it.
We move on & learn. With the points.

If it continues to be a concern. We bring in a sniper... Brown and Macmillan are very similar in style .... Going on last nights performance, Brown seems the far superior. I think he might be a real gem. To exchange Logan for a sniper would be the easiest decision to make IMO. Do remember that Devils have the most firepower in the league, some of the best snipers & playmakers yet didn't score once off nearly 30 shots. When we play our normal game, we'll see a much more free-flowing game with a lot more chances for us, a hell of a lot. Carter, Lawrence, Clarke, Nikiforuk, Moran & Schultz will all score decent amounts. A sniper would not have helped one bit last night, we didn't have the chances for a sniper to have been effective and the one clear chance we did have.. Nikiforuk pinged it off the bar. We've got skill forwards but there's not a forward on the team that didn't and won't contribute defensively and i'm very happy with that.
