Harbingers

Taraves was trying to sit up on his own but had minimal control over his faculties in this instance. That’s why the trainer immediately grabbed his neck from both sides. At least that showed us he had full control of all his limbs even if he was completely discombobulated. There is no reason for a trainer to intentionally sit him up. The most is rolling him on his back in case of seizure.

Refs homering for Vegas.

Yep they are going back to Miami Monday now at least.

Ok the refs have this in the bag for TB. That was a clear passing of a down stick right in front of the ref on Tampa Bay.

Tic Toc Florida.

Nope and if they lose tonight I’m just worried they’ll fold it during game 4. As for the rest, I hope we can blank Nashville but I don’t think they’ll start round 2 until all round 1 teams are done. They might though and leave the break after division play. Since they already have to figure out what to do with the Canadian team. That seems like the most logical point this season.

The hit was completely unintentional, not sure how i feel about this fight. Perry is already visibly shaken. Perry didnt even fight back. just took his punches.

Welp Panthers...

oh fug. At least hes moving his arms...

And there goes the top.

Damn Florida. At least it’s that series to 5 games.

Well it appears the finally woke up and without Barkov.

Why do I already get the feeling Florida is gonna lose again though.

It’s so pathetically quiet. There’s supposedly 9K of them too.

Basically this but my optimistic take is 9-8/10-7.

Something a little different today.

Besides the Aho call and maybe the Staal interference all of them were warranted. I think maybe one on night one I’d dispute. Though Nashville was playing to draw penalties. They had a clear too many men on the ice that wasn’t called as well yesterday. Not sure how you adjust that. If “Smashville” actually played physical yesterday almost none of our penalties would have been called but they set the bar way lower and the refs were happy to oblige.

No practice updates by the PR team or the Beat Writers. Guessing we probably are doing a rehab and rest day before we fly to Nashville later I imagine.

https://www.covers.com/sport/hockey/nhl/statistics/team-penaltykilling/2020-2021 Pretty sight. Ya four teams tied at 100% right now but only one of them has faced twice the amount of penalty kills as the next closest team. Now let’s fix the 14.29% power play.

Ummm, not sure how I feel about the TBD, sounds like they might be trying to push it.

Not bullied for sure, though I won’t trust any NHL officiating crew that steps on the ice for a Boston/Carolina playoff series for a long time.
