Wow that could be an absolute series changer right here
Yikes
Bro what happened
wonder if the tommy novak save got him good
That’s gonna be a fucking wat?
Our history with backup goalies isn’t great so I’m not getting my hopes up too much, but this is wild.
That’s brutal for the canucks, hope he’s ok
I hope he’s okay but WOW Casey Desmith… they could seriously win in 5-6 games now
I have been a Preds fan since 2002 yeah this might be a sweep for Vancouver. Nashville sucks with back ups.
How good is their backup DeSmith?
Everybody get in here, there’s more hope than we thought!
Win-win to me. Hope he’s alright and would prefer we beat them at full strength, but if not then our odds just significantly increased.
Never forget Scott Darling…
Obviously don’t like seeing anyone hurt, but we have to take advantage of it.
You hate to see it. But when “luck”, I feel dirty even calling it that, falls your way you have to take advantage. This is massive.
Everyone freaking out about this has clearly never watched the Preds vs a backup
Hoping he’s OK. Also knowing how playoffs can go I wouldn’t get excited for this thinking it will be any easier on us. There have been lots of situations where a backup goalie lights it up in a pressure situation. Our team will need to keep up the heat regardless and not get lazy thinking it will be easy.
Hope he’s ok, but the boys have to use this advantage. Preds in 5 maybe
I genuinely hate to hear this, because fuck injuries. I wonder if he came back too soon.
Boys, can you not make DeSmith look like a Vezina candidate tho?
Not good news. Didn’t realize anything had happened, assuming it was just stress on his regular season injury?
Well you know our history against backup goalies …
Wonder if this was a product of Lauzon getting taken out into the net midway through the 2nd on the Teddy Blueger interference call.
Surely DeSmith doesn’t turn into a brick wall… right?
Bummer all around. Bummer for the Canucks because that seriously hurts their chances. Bummer for the Preds because now even if they win the series people will just chalk it up to Demko being hurt. Bummer for the audience because you want to see the best of the best playing in the playoffs.
Huge bummer for Vancouver. Think we’re still gonna need to generate better shots than we did on Sunday if it’s gonna make a difference for us though
ESPN just confirmed he’s out for at least game 2
Woah this is crazy
If he was playing injured game one, that’s crazy. He still played so good, had a CRAZY save early.
I appreciate everyone here hitting the reaction pause button, knowing our extensive history vs backups 💀
That’s a shame. I hope it’s nothing serious or career altering.
Who is their backup? I hope he’s prepared to have a good time. We love to give backups the best games of their career. lol
Nahhhh boys we still gonna take ya in atleast 6 games
