Around the NHL - Part XLII - (Playoffs Edition)

[Nickmo82]

Must have been frustrating as hell for Oilers fans. Did they watch the Bobrovsky bizarro tape and just feed him Nash-esque waffles all night?

 

[94leetch]

The Panthers looked like they picked up right where they left off with the Rangers, albeit a little rusty and against a better overall team.

 

[LOFIN]

f*** the Oilers and f*** Canada

Imagine Snowblind if Stuart Skinner was our goalie

Or frankly your average goalie from the league. Rangers have been spoiled by having top-3 goaltending for almost 2 decades.

 

[Kovalev27]

Bobrovsky showed today it's possible to do both. Top goalies once in a while have to shut the door. To be fair game 6 was a completely clean game for him and his team f***ed him up the ass. I will give him that.

I don’t think you’re wrong. There wasn’t a game in that fla series that Igor didn’t give up a soft goal. That’s just a fact. As good as he was he gave up bad rush goals in game 1 4 and 5 that really turned the tide. Bob has now had multiple games where he just made sure not give up a free one. Need a shut out some times to win it all.

If this is a Rangers game Igor prob gives up a softee on the rush and it’s 1-1 and maybe fla loses or we lose it.

And again Igor was amazing. But he did give up multiple soft goals in that series where the margin for error was basically zero for us to win.

Actually if you look at Vallys series breakdown the difference in the series is 2 low danger goals total

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

If the series continues to play out like this the Panthers may have won the only game they’re going to win.

This was a bigger drubbing than anything Florida gave the Rangers. They’ll start shooting above the waist and the goals will come.

Fla played the same game in game 1 against us frankly. We should have won that game. They’ll get better

I don’t think so. Edmonton had more breakaways than Florida had scoring chances. We should have won g1 but didn’t drub Florida the way they were just drubbed.

I’m not sure they can stop this from happening. There were multiple times where they just got shredded and it wasn’t because of a breakdown, it was just Edmonton being Edmonton.

 

[McRanger92]

Bennett getting his stick up on McDavid. Ferraro saying it was “incidental” lol my ass. Time to up the prescription Ray.

 

[will1066]

It's over for McDavid, time to start thinking about what he's gonna do post hockey.

Sign with the Rangers

 

[EdJovanovski]

Oilers are a horrible team and I will be absolutely shocked if they win more than 1 game

We both know this is total nonsense stemming from your anti-Canada bias.

I wish you would save your shitposting for the main boards. You'd have a lot more credibility & hell, we'd all respect you more for f***ing with the trolls out there instead of wasting bandwidth here.

 

[Kravtsov420]

The amount of interference and cross checks per 60 Jesus Christ

Makes a mockery of an already Mickey Mouse league

 

[LOFIN]

Florida can and will make adjustments. Absolutely not worried about them.

Same

Must be nice to have good coaching

Stop. Our coaching is fine and not changing. I know we like to burn coaches at the stake every summer, but this time it's players who will face the music. And it's about time.

Pretty disappointing for fans. I’m sure something else will spring up though.

 

[will1066]

Washington Capitals also have announced that they have acquired the Capn Crunch cereal.

PuckPedia is already there.

Shit....what about Crunch Berries? They can have the Peanut Butter version, nobody likes that one.

I can't imagine Mika pussbibanejad doing the same stuff Tkachuk and Bennet or Evander Kane are doing. You have to be able to just punch a guy in the face away from the play, the refs can't call everything.

 

[Kovalev27]

Mika not being a scum bag of a player doesn’t mean he can’t win a championship guys.

A lot of it is timing. A lot of it is bounces. A lot of it is match ups. Barkov is not a good match up for anyone right now. Will Barkov have much gas left next year three years in a row? Very very tough to do so. Next year we gear up again might very well be our year. I don’t see a team in the metro that is going to be a real challenge at this point

 

[Kovalev27]

Again not to pile on Igor because he doesn’t deserve it he was brilliant but he did not once give us a game that bob just gave Florida. A clean sheet. Bob did it to us basically twice. Then again starts the finals off with one where he makes multiple ten bell saves. One of the best expected goals against games in the playoffs. Shesty just always gave up that leaker. A bad one.
