No word on our refs yet. But it won’t be Rank and Garrett again. They are up in Boston. 

Honestly not sure it matters It wouldn't shock me if the Isles fail to score a PP goal in this entire series even if they get five chances a game....

And on the flip side the Canes will probably convert at least 1 of 3.

 

The refs care more about keeping penalty calls even and "policing games" than actually calling correct penalties.

I wonder if Lemieux needs to be in tonight? I have a feeling the goons will be out tonight.

I don't think the Isles go goon, they did last year because our PP was as bad as theirs this season we can and will make them pay nothing loses this series faster for them than gooning it up....  I hope they do

Once a goon always a goon. It just depends on when it comes out. It did a bit in the third last game.

I’d rather Lemuix be there just in case they do. I still have nightmares from Svech, falling and getting the concussion fighting Ovechkin. Albeit, Svech is probably 30lbs heavier now.

You’ll see more physicality in this game for sure.

The Pisles were sixth in the regular season in hits and I’m shocked that they weren’t more physical in our opening game.

No matter, as long as the hits are legal I don’t care because being overtly physical can sometimes put a team in a bad spot defensively when they are focused more of making a hit and less on making the right play. We saw this exact situation occur in the Caps/Rags series and it led to a Rags goal.

Remember Fast is out tonight, who takes his place?

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
