If he’s going to be our starter come PO time, might as well get him as warmed up and used to Boston as possible.

Is there a team in the whole damned league that shows up for every single game in the regular season and never takes games off? Because we did just watch the Rangers nearly pull out a win on a game where they only appeared to show up for maybe 5 minutes against the Leafs simply due to lucky bounces, and it ain't the first time.

I believe if they go on a long run, they would need to use both goalies. Not just one. Even if Woll starts the Boston series, doesn’t mean he will finish it. Samsonov should have gotten Boston tomorrow.

They're going to come out and own Buffalo tonight. Matthews going to get 2 goals. Everyone here will be back on the cup parade discord chat.
Then it's going to be a repeat of Monday against Boston tomorrow.

Would like to see Keefe switch up the D pairings if a trade isn't coming. I know Benoit-McCabe has been stellar but I worry that Brodie-Liljegren would get chewed up against a team like Boston or Florida. Maybe Brodie and McCabe can have more success this season in the playoffs this year if McCabe plays on the right and Brodie is on the left unlike last year. McCabe has looked great on the right and Brodie has played his best hockey at LD. Wouldn't hurt to spread out the physicality across three pairings either.

Hoping Mathews gets a hatrick tonight. I’ve pretty much accepted we are going to finish 3rd. Time to root for individual stats and the name on the back.
Woll will be playing Boston in the playoffs, so he may as well see them.

Sure that's fair, but on on the other hand we're on a massive losing streak against teams in our division si I also think it's fair to say you should make a point of showing up for those.
Regular season doesn't matter much so may as well I guess.

Holmberg is also a healthy scratch which is interesting
Oh regular season matters the most but no way we win presidents trophy now, don’t care about 2nd place. Similar to the Cup or nothing playoff people. Lol
Been interesting to look at Tavares line usage the last couple games.
His line matched up against Zibby as much as possible against the Rangers and completely dominated him all game including Tavares getting a goal.
His line was then matched up against Pasta and Marchand then next game giving up a goal against Pasta (although outshooting them line to line) and dominating Marchand including scoring again.
Tavares line is the 2nd line in all but name at this point.....which is not a good thing.
Our actual "2nd line" shouldn't be getting dominated when they are playing 3rd line/4thline comp and favorable ozone deployment.
Lets hope they break out of the funk tonight.

Yes I remember, regular season matters more than the playoffs to you (and maybe 6 other people).
I don’t mind being in the minority, actually I relish it. lol! Anyway 7 months of playing is the real proof of the best team. Playoffs are exciting though, as they say just get in and anything can happen. GLG

LMAO
These guys are going freaky
this was f***ing gold lmao
Just look at Florida last year right. They were so bad during the regular season that their destiny was in the Penguins hands.....and then they roll to the final.
He'll, LA barely made it in and won cups.
Just get in and who knows.......but you still have to make it in. Built for the playoffs mean crap if you arnt in the playoffs.
