I’m admittedly worried considering the fact that this is our 5th meeting and we still haven’t beat them. And the fact it was probably our worst game of the post season. No bennett, who knows with Lomberg, haven’t scored a pp goal against Boston this season yet, our track record after longer layoffs worries me and now swayman potential dialed in isn’t making me confident at the moment
same here, was at worst hopin for an avs/wpg type game where we at least break through their side while crumbling in our own zone, but all we did was crumble.
Our pk is great which is nice, but this PP is gonna be our exit from the playoffs, even vs tampa it was really bad at times. A lot of times were getting these power plays to extend a lead and we never ever can do it, its like the gameplan is to just kill the clock, lack of urgency and too stuck on trying to make the perfect play - no traffic out in net - bumper play has been erased which was our bread and butter and we cant adapt.
I gotta admit, i dont mind Okposo out there, he looked slow but very solid, had a few nice hits and the 4th line looks good.
Third line needs a shakeup, Tank has never played good on there in terms of offensive production. Will say though he is a tank on the ice in terms of hits, on one ozone possession he hit two bruins in one hit and held them up, but in true panthers fashion we couldnt take advantage.
Sucks for bob, didnt think he played bad at all but we sure gave him another round of the march play
