Might be one of the worst PPs I've seen in the playoffs that didn't result in a shorty

The problem is in games 1 and 2 we had that 5-10 minute stretch where we just played god awful hockey. And those are the reasons we have let Florida score most of their goals in game 1 and 2

He looked like he got hurt at some point in game 1, although it looked more shoulder or somewhere upper body

Jarvis would have been with the aho line. He and Aho play well together. Maybe necas as 2c with patches while kk goes down to 4th c. Yeah, injuries suck but they happen. The foolish thing was not trying to improve our team at the trade deadline. This is what we deserve for having a cheap ass owner/gm. It sucks because we are bordering on the Carolina Panthers level of play before our super bowl. Good enough to keep making the playoffs, but not good enough to win it

I think there was one point in game one where he grimaced and looked like he was in pain. I'm curious if that possible injury is the reason why

Jarvis is debatable (he has had a great series so far). Necas was pretty much a fourth liner until this year (I hope he can keep it up). And turbo is a good playmaker and solid defender, but he's not a goal scorer. Skjei and pesce are solid, but both are pretty awful with the puck. They badly struggle against forechecks. Chatfield is solid, but again also struggles with forechecks. I'll put it this way, I think if those players you mentioned above were on different teams, I think their stats would be much worse. I think they do well in our system and that helps them to look better than they actually are.

This right here Our first two series win speaks louder about how terrible the Islanders and devils are than anything else. Yes, injuries definitely derailed us - but we still needed another scorer or two at the deadline

Are we though?? Outside of svech, aho, slavin, and maybe burns and patches, we are pretty much skating 3rd liner or worse type talent. We just have to be realistic - our system is great and makes us look a lot better than we actually are.

The brain farts out defense has had in this series is crazy. It's the type of poo pee wee teams don't do

The series was lost in game 1. Florida is just more talented and has way better conditioning than us.

Awful. Don't even bother showing up to Florida

We have to score in OT 1. Seeing last game, we don't have anywhere near the endurance of FL

With how many times our goalie has been railroaded, I think it's fair to turn the tables

Gonna be hard to win this game (and series) with how well Bob is playing unfortunately

Props to Freddie for giving us a chance. Florida was the far superior team from the beginning of overtime 2 to the end. I can't tell if it's they are that well conditioned or if we just aren't

Hopefully we get some of our ahlers up for game 2. Sit stastny and stepan and get some fresh legs

Damn.... That might be the series there

Freddie saving our asses

Just a terrible looking power Play there

Please score here canes

They have had a lot more energy the past two over time periods. We are going to have to pray for some kind of fluke goal because we are generating no offense

God we need this win badly. This will be a backbreaking loss if we don't win

Skjei has not had a great game today

I do think the longer this OT goes, the better our odds will be. Florida has double shifted their top line a lot this game

Jarvis is player of the game for us no matter what happens the rest of the way. He has had a hell of a game
