4-2 Florida

Keep it going, us southern teams have to stick together , the northern and Canadian elite still don't think we belong 

I know, it’s funny even though the lightning made it to the finals 3 times in a row and won the cup 2 of those times and then the panthers and canes records. It’s like they don’t even know the Canes have a bunch of players from Finland, NC.

Lmao... Pavelski with 4 goals, Domi with 3 assists and even a Hakinpaa sighting... you'd think Dallas was dominating.

Unfortunately Oettenger went full on swiss cheese!

Wait till tomorrow night?, it will be the glorious Devils vs the ignorant red necks who don't know the difference between a clothesline and a blue line 

What's so glorious about the Devils?

"glorious" were the Rags and they got their "glorious" asses kicked out of the arena and onto the Golf course.

Make no mistake...the National Media HATES this matchup because there is no BIG Market to leech money off of.

There isn't a "big market" team left in the playoffs. Matter of fact, a few didn't even make the playoffs (Washington, Pittsburgh).

And NHL markets are far different than, say, NFL or MLB markets. The Kings are in a big market, but that doesn't mean they draw TV ratings.

And, the NHL has major bandwagon markets (Rags, Pens, Caps).

Does anyone else find this whole ticket master Florida panthers blocking Canadians thing hilarious. Everyone in the media is acting shocked like it never happened before, they do realize this happens in every playoff of every sport right? Everyone geoblocks on the first round of sales.

it's so ridiculous. Secondary market doesn't restrict. Every team does it. The Rangers fans went off on us last year for posting something and the Yankees do it. Just outright hypocrisy on anyone that criticizes it.  Home team has every right to do what they can to restrict away fans from at least buying up front. There are probably plenty of Leafs fan Sunrise residents who will have no restrictions. The rest can pay secondary market prices or stay home.

Didn't watch OT and didn't see the Kraken's first goal, but not sure any goalie was stopping goals 2, 3, or 4 for the Kraken. 2 was terrible D from the Stars after a turnover (all 5 players close to the left boards) and Schultz sniped it top left shelf after a wide open cross crease pass. Goals 3 and 4 were crazy deflections that would be borderline impossible reactions to make to save (honestly, the only way to save them would probably be being out of position). Honestly, I thought Otter made some really good saves in the 2nd and early 3rd when Dallas was mostly on the defensive.

Dallas folded like a house of cards to the Kraken forecheck in the first and their terrible turnovers/positioning gave the Kraken most of their goals.

I checked the box score and it looked like they scored 3 in 3 mins? That will quiet a home crowd

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
