God we are a f****** mess

I will say that the Florida players skate made contact before Drury even touched him

Please save us Gary bettman

Also, how do 4 freaking refs miss a dam puck going out of play... That's pretty inexcusable

Man Slavin's pokechecks are just freaking elite. That poo better be rated a 99 in NHL 23

It's a bummer Necas has blown at least 2 great scoring chances this game

1st goal was pretty soft, 2nd goal was a snipe. Not putting it on Freddie - this has just been a god awful period with how slow our skaters look + the dumb positioning and bad turnovers

They have scorers at pretty much every position on F. Total breakdowns like that 2nd goal cannot happen

That is the type of dumbshit defense we played in game 3 against NJ right there... 4 guys on the boards going after 1 person - absolutely cannot happen

Need a good fire them up speech from Rod between periods. Team has looked lethargic the entire period

Definitely hasn't been our finest period

Needed that goal. Couldn't let them get the momentum killing off a 5 on 3

Still think we should have Mac over Stepan. I think Stepan has far and away been our worst skater of the 12 forwards going tonight.

Hopefully we don't have to worry about anyone from FL slewfooting our stars like that dirtbag Chara liked to do to us...

I wouldn't be surprised if they wait a game or 2 before inserting him (especially if we don't go 2-0 at home), unless he is 80% or better. I don't think they want to rush him back and have him re-break his hand

Just curious - if TT is able to play, who sits for him? Hopefully Mac keeps his spot and we sit Stepan (or Stastny) - Mac has been relentless on his forecheck and has meshed very well with our system. Hopefully our lines are: Jarvis - Aho - Mac; TT - KK - Necas; Fast, Staal, Marty; Drury - Stastny - Noesen

With how big of a dumpster fire our team was his entire tenure here, outside of years 1 and 2 I think, I would probably be ecstatic to be on a team that is much better also.

Hopefully they call every little ticky tack thing on Gudas possible with how he held that Toronto player's stick on their series winner

Luckily Pieterangelo isn't on the other team for this series, so hopefully he can make it at least 1 shift...

I gotta say... It's refreshing reading through Florida's forum and seeing that most of their fans are reasonable and actually acknowledge that we are good, even though we don't have the noteworthy players like Matthews, McJesus, etc. I definitely got tired of reading the Devils forums saying we suck and after we whooped their asses in 3 of the 5 games, it turned to "well, our team just sucks or (insert player name or coach) sucks" Should be a fun series with both teams being great on the forecheck. Somebody sacrifice a chicken so that way Skjei can stop tossing grenades and turning the puck over in our zone. Defense needs to keep playing like they did in games 1, 2, 4, and 5. Florida has a lot of scorers, so we will need all of our lines to show up.

Man I hope Vegas doesn't make the finals. If we beat FL, that would be probably the worst possible matchup of all of the playoff teams there were.

Seattle has looked like the much better team in the series. Wouldn't be surprised if they win game 7

Florida's scoring depth is a concern and much like NJ, can be lethal on the counter. But I think we matchup pretty well against them. I am way more concerned about the matchups against the teams out west - Vegas, Dallas, and Seattle are all matchups that are not ideal for us.

Poor Austin Matthews got put on a milk carton. Good disappearing act out of him

Lol, see ya later Toronto. Nice job winning your Stanley Cup though of going to the 2nd round
