GDT: Canes v. Coyotes 1/27 7:00

The Hockey Gods better shine on the Canes ass here, they deserve two points here, done everything but score.
 
That made up for a lot of the posts and crossbars that Orlov has dented this season. Other than maybe not flinching, I don't quite know how a goalie can be in a better position. He had the short side completely covered, wasn't playing small like our goalies are often guilty of. There was nothing far side really either. Just a perfect shot.

Assist to Bunting for "pushing" (cross-checking) Kesselring out of the way.

That shot darn near sliced off the goalie’s chin. Heckuva angle.

That was the old ear shot/haircut riser that the goalie really has no chance on, Slavin scored a playoff goal on Sorokin and the Islanders last year from a similar angle at home.
 
That Orlov goal was something else.
The guy behind me said "he had a puck-sized window" and I think he was about right.

Fitting that either Orlov or Burns had the game winner, as both had multiple zingers into the mix zone that could well have gone in earlier. Insanely dominant 3rd period by the whole crew, and it was nuts that it came down to the final minute.
 
The Yotes finished the 2nd period with 11 shots on goal. They finished the game with 11 shots on goal. Their last shot came with a little over 5 minutes left in the 2nd.
The Coyotes has ONE even vaguely dangerous possession the entire 3rd period. One. Insanity.

The NHL stats guy kept alternating between 1 and 0 shots during Gold’s post game. I heard one go off Raanta’s pads with about a minute left, but they must have decided that it wouldn’t have gone in, IIRC, it was kind of parallel to the goal line.

Yeah, Raanta redirected it, but it was never on target. I was just happy that he hadn't fallen asleep by then. He didn't even have that many pucks around the boards to handle at that stage.
