GDT: 12/22/24 - 5:00PM EDT - Florida vs Tampa Bay

[Stelio Kontos]

Florida owns us now eh

As does Toronto..

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Such a frustrating sequence that just torpedos a game.

 

[Point21]

other than a bad last 5 minutes, we have been solid. Vasy makes an easy save and Cirelli doesnt try to 1 on 1 someone with nobody behind him and its still a 1-1 game. Defense isnt the issue by any means, its the unnecessary extra passes. They really need to have 2-3 different PP looks for different types of teams PK schemes like Florida.

 

[Hoek]

Wtf was Vasi doing on that first SHG? He acted like the whistle blew after he made the first save. Mind boggling. I could've made that stop on that weak little flip.

Ridiculous reckless plays against the team with the most shorthanded goals in the league by far. Were they not briefed on that at all?

 

[The Gongshow]

Theyre gonna get jumped by Ottawa in the standings. That's unacceptable

They only do that shit on the PP too, we act like the other team is going to always just sit back

I get Kucherov has an effect on people to where you want to play smart when you're with him but this has gone past "disease" level. It's gotten a little better but it's sad that Stamkos had to basically get booted off for the effect to begin

Definite brain fart

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Cirelli Has to sit though after whatever that was. Its just inexcusable and their has to be some accountability on this team.

 

[Point21]

This team has always been known to over pass and not just shoot when the opportunity presents itself. look how many times they overpass and it leads to a turnover that leads to a goal or scoring chance.

It has been costing us since we got the boot out of back-to-back ECF's by Pitt....

 

[Rschmitz]

Most teams are intimidated by our speed, Florida is crazy aggressive and don’t give a f***. If we don’t make them pay they will just do it even more

And we keep falling down

They also have been getting the Bruins treatment where they get away with just about everything and don't get called for it.

 

[Point21]

Again.... just shoot the puck Raddysh...

 

[Brie]

Not a great 2nd period, let's do better in the 3rd.

 

[JFleegs]

pass pass pass shoot into a defender

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Again.... just shoot the puck Raddysh...

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

It's been a pretty even high energy game for 38 minutes, but that one dumb power play is the difference. ugh

 

[Rschmitz]

Florida plays exactly how we used to play. Y’all remember “don’t think, react”?

Frustrating

 

[DarrylshutzSydor]

Kucherov compete level is the pitts

 

[T REX]

I just wished there was a little better urgency knowing JJ is playing tomorrow in net in sunrise.

 

[These Are The Days]

I mean this genuinely. We NEED more right handed shooters. We can only execute so many plays with 3/4 the team on its backhand on the left half of the ice

 

[Peacefool]

did we ever lose a game cuz of 2 SH goals in a same PP?
