Following the Fleet

Gross.

I’m sorry, what? You wouldn’t cancel a game for injury. What are we doing here?

Jessie Eldridge and Susanna Tapani combined for 23 goals this season, yet both went goalless in the playoffs. The Fleet simply did not get enough production from their forwards.

The Fleet’s rookie trio of Winn, Newhook, and Huber, which combined for 16 goals in the regular season, went goalless in the 4-game series against Ottawa. Each generally played well and notched at least 1 assist in the series, but a goal or 2 would’ve done wonders for the team.

Susanna Tapani did not have a good playoffs, to the point that I have to wonder if she was playing through significant injury. 0G/0A/0P/-3 A really big departure from the strong regular season she had. 9G/9A/18P/+11

Looking ahead to this offseason, the Fleet need to bolster their offense in the draft and via free agency.

A day removed from the disappointing end to the Fleet season, I think a big downfall was a lack of high-end scoring forwards. The Fleet relied too heavily on defensemen like Winn and Keller, and not only needed Jessie Eldridge at the deadline, but needed more than 1 of her.

The Boston Fleet led the league with 23 game-opening goals during the regular season. In the playoffs, they never scored the first goal, and only found the back of the net in the second period.

Aerin Frankel wasn’t bad in these playoffs, and the skaters should have gotten more done in front of her, but she didn’t stand on her head like we saw so many times in the regular season and Olympics. 9 GA in 4 Games/2.09 GAA/.903 SV%

i cant wait for sirens to get into the playoffs

This and the goal Frankel let in at the end of game 3 will haunt my nightmares for months.

@catfoodtini This is a very funny idea, but I would find it insulting if I were one of the players.

there should be a playdowns where the bottom 4 teams in the league fight to be “the best of the worst” and they also get a mini trophy and title and ring

UGH🫠

Let's all jump off of a building

right.

Welp, there it is. The 62-point Boston Fleet have been knocked off by the 44-point Ottawa Charge in 4 games. Just a massive missed opportunity.

Are you kidding me?🫠

To *double overtime we go...

All my homies hate Professor Puck

4 periods not enough. The Fleet and Charge will head to 2OT.
