Poitras 1 G and 1 A…..looked good,
Lonrei was OK, IMO.
A little scrambly at times….but he’s playing hard.
Hardly got any PP time. Which is a mistake IMO.

We’ll if you don’t want to fight, don’t punch the opposing player in the mouth.

Well this is a take I guess .
This lousy PP needs both of them on it PRONTO! Lowrider and Shatts at the points, Potsey up the middle with JVR and JDB.

With 2 rookies and another AHL d man, this was to be expected on the road.

You can play a tough game and not fight. I think you’re talking about something completely different

People forget that Ullmark was playing hurt. That's on Montgomery. He went into the playoffs with the best team in NHL history and made some really stupid coaching decisions. Just needs to tinker I guess.
After the 2019 Final, I lost all faith in the NHL having any integrity whatsoever. Even though I believe in my heart that there are definitely games that are “influenced” and “managed” by the league, I can’t bring myself to stop watching. It’s like I’m trapped in an abusive relationship I can’t get out of.

Not really sure how the current roster could be tough. Especially with Frederick benched, which I thought I read.
I’ll be happy to get Looch back.

I think someone should've made him fight with all the punching and shoving he was doing up high all game.
There is zero question the NHL did not drag 2019 to a 7th game. Then the Bruins choked that one away unfortunately. That will not be forgotten.
Couldn't tell if Freddy was benched or not. He was invisible for 99% of the game. Useless.

Fred will have a 2 goal game with a fight some time in the next couple weeks and will buy himself another four months of not being noticed.
It sucks how he has shown his strength before and his ability to be an effective grinding forward, but his confidence never sticks around for more than a game or two at a time.
Lost my patience with him some time ago and I’m afraid it’s not coming back. You need guys like him to step it up down the stretch and make an impact in the playoffs and he NEVER does

He certainly picked his spots. Is that toughness? Frederic was invisible and who else would challenge him?

So frustrating because he has the size, speed and toughness to be able to contribute even if he doesn’t score.

That’s the thing though you don’t have to. I remember Nick Kronwall just steamrolling people all the time and he wasn’t a guy who fought.
You can throw hits, play nasty, and not fight. Heck I think Mike Komisarek was a better dman before he ended up fighting Lucic.
Guess my definition of “tough” doesn’t include fighting.

Detroit was called for 6 penalties tonight....Boston was called for 6 penalties just in the last 2 minutes of the game

Bingo. I started really questioning when Rooney did them to the tune of no powerplays in the 2013 Finals. Then Acciari incident in the 2019 Finals.
It was too much. Too overt. Now I believe anything is possible with this league. Nothing is too far.

Sure, but I still can't stand that kind of play. It's gutless, and there were probably 3-4 times that he could've been called for a rough if the stripes didn't have their heads up their asses. If that was happening to my linemate, I'd want to punch the kid right in the jaw.
He needs to get it together. He is no longer a young player. He knows to bring it every nihht. Look at your captain and learn from him. Marchy brings it every game
Not played very well by Lohrei on Wings 5th goal. Soft getting back and along the wall, and bam out of nowhere I nice rebound to Coop. No inside position. He’ll have to play better D than that sequence if he wants to stick around.
NHLOL is bush league for sure. They have no honor in how they deal with their officials. DoPS is a misnomer if there ever was one. Completely shady league that pretends to be progressive and fair. Such a crock.
Frederic has even lost his act of agitator after whistles. At least try something.

I don’t find it gutless. If I’m a good player who’s hammering your best guys and they are hearing footsteps why would I take myself off the ice for 5 minutes just to fight some plug?
I’d just keep playing my game

What about McAvoy getting blatantly tripped (or hooked) leading directly to a pivotal TB goal in what 17 or 18, right in front of the ref, with no call.
