every game is different...we’ll see...but to expect no giveaways or other D mistakes is not realistic...it’s going to happen...hell, there’s a million by both Florida teams in this one lol

Buffalo is an awesome hockey market though. Just a shame they're a worthless franchise
Man Florida is fun to watch. This is the first time I’m really watching them and they are a fun team

Too big geographically and too many time zones for an all Canadian division.
Yeah that organization is a dumpster fire. I definitely plan on taking advantage of some cheap tickets and plan on going to an away game in Buffalo next season

I agree but apparently the Canadian teams like the all Canadian division. I wouldn't want to miss out on a Seattle-Vancouver matchup to keep it together, but I'm not exactly in a position to say those Canadian teams are wrong.

You can’t move the Sabres to QC, Buffalo bleeds hockey. Their TV ratings are insane even tho their team sucks.

Yes, of course. Occasionally it's gonna happen. But the frequency of high danger chances against today was way too high.
Even if we get past NYI, a more talented offensive team will end our season if we play like this. Marchand would have a field day.

If Florida would calm down a little and stop taking the unnecessary penalties this wouldn’t be close.

I still find it hilarious that the Panthers are paying Bobrovsky $10 million to be their 3rd best goalie.
Driedger-Knight would be an awesome tandem for a long time, but they decided to pay Bobrovsky a ton even after drafting Knight high.

Unless you’re getting the second coming of Hasek, it just doesn’t make a lot of sense to spend that much for a goalie.

I can't believe there's actually a Calgary/Vancouver game after all this haha

I think the Florida angle is just closer to the ice than PPG so you're seeing the speed of the game.
Plus Tampa and Florida both play fun styles. Everyone in the east is trapping.

I didn’t think the HD chances were the problem...Jarry did well on those and we had a few TOs but it wasn’t the biggest issue ever...outside of Jarry, I thought the biggest issue was that we were skating the first two periods and prevented the Isles from settling in on their forecheck...the third period and OT we let them establish their forecheck (fatigue, confidence, etc?) and they won the board battles and kept us from establishing our O game and we never really threatened outside of that one shift after the Isles goal where Carter and Kap caught their third D pair napping...that’s what I saw...outside of Jarry, Pens let the Isles establish their game after the second
