We got a lot of chances last night. I will say for the part I watched we were the better team 5v5. We had them clogged up and nowhere to go. A few mistakes cost us winning the game in regulation. We have to dial in our shot so we don’t just keep finding the post. 

I think that waxed and waned. Some periods they definitely dominated us on the 5x5 but I think our peak performance in 5x5 was better than theirs.

We just needed them to go in and that didn't happen.

And, Freddie played pretty well but one of those goals was just flat out an easy one. He can't make those mistakes. That goes for this series or the next(hopefully). Every round the intensity ramps up and the margin for error gets smaller.

I’ve said this several times, you can’t win the playoffs with just two goals a game, even with our defense, have to get 3+. Canes did that against the devils but this is a tougher challenge. I really believe we can score more and the next game will have to show it. 

Freddie stopped 57 out of 60 shots, that’s an outstanding .950 save percentage. If your asking for more than that your trying to put it all on one man.

It’s one game where we hit a million goal posts. We are going to be fine. 

  • we looked like the lesser team the majority of the game and could only score on PPs
  • we also got a lot of breaks go our way as well, we were VERY lucky for it to go as many rounds as it did
  • we lost after the game went to 2 am, which is really bad for morale and our energy
  • florida beat an all time great team in Boston, they are really good team and the best team left we could have faced
  • we are down early and might have gotten beat so bad we lose twice and end up losing the series because of it

it's not over but I'm not going to pretend it's not looking good

We totally dominated the third period with 14 SOG to the panthers 2. If we play our game all three periods we have a chance to win a game. Yes we need to score 5 on 5 but good to see our PP working.

We beat Florida last game of the season (yes Lyon in net) to stay ahead of the Devils so it’s not like they’re suddenly unbeatable. 

Agree it’s a tough road ahead but we knew it would be. Let’s see what Saturday brings.

Nah. It’s one game. We have kicked ass for the majority of the playoffs. I’m sure you were doom and gloom with the devils beat us 8-4 that one game. You are flat out crazy to say “I’m not going to pretend it doesn’t look good”

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      Bryce averaged 208 yards per game with a 61% completion since coming back.  How is that top 10?

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      Actually,  what lines up with your ideas he is too short or small to be successful.? His passing completions or total yards? Bryce is going into his 13th game with a legitimate offense and good offensive coach. And during that time he went from the worst qb in the league to top 10 by the end of the year based on game production against a number of playoff teams.  And he showed that he can lead comebacks and score under pressure at the end of the game and overtime. He stayed cool under pressure and was one of the best against the blitz by year end. That is the holy grail in quarterback traits and Bryce went from crumbling under pressure to stepping up and delivering strikes down the field. Maybe it is me but those kind of qualities far out weigh a few inches or a few pounds here and there.  Everyone holds their breath when he get whacked by a 350lb linemen and exhales when he magically arises seemingly unfazed. And yeah when he is backpedalling and tosses one out there as if it is random only to float into Thielen's hand it seems just luck. Kind of like Russell Wilson years ago. But I think you are letting your past rob you of enjoying what I hope is happening which is the development of our franchise guy. And for the record I am all about bringing in competition  at all positions including quarterback.
