Post-Game Talk: Built. Different.

[oXo Cube]

Podkolzin was great tonight, his forecheck caused multiple icings and his pressure caused the delay of game. Hell of a net drive too. Cant believe we got this kid for a 4th

He was the primary catalyst on Arvidsson's goal too with a crazy good screen up high.

Kapanen: "These are the best days of my life, enjoying them with this group" (paraphrased it)

So happy for this guy, what a warrior

 

[FlameChampion]

Waived pickup Kasperi Kapanen was our best player. What a team.

Best fin in the Dallas series. Best fin tonight.

Zero images of Panthers "watch party". Wonder why?

There are. Here it was in full swing

 

[Drivesaitl]

He's skilled and physical. I thought he was more of a dangling creampuff that they thought might provide some offense on the 4th line in limited minutes. But he's been playing like a mini-Hyman.

Nah he's got game and tenacity. He's not weak. But its textbook account of players all making themselves be the best they can be when they are on a club that can win it all. Players elevate, we see it through the lineup.

All of Bowman's personal additions looking good. We're going to give Walman a fat freaking extension and I am about it.

Underrated part of this game was Skinner intercepting the dump in like 10 times.

Interesting tidbit from the panel. When Chicago was winning all those cups and teams were getting “bigger”- Scotty Bowman told his son to build a back end that can move the puck. That’s what he did here

In fairness theres a lot to watch in Florida....

Those are some big bags under Paul’s eyes.

 

[Cloned]

This was the Oilers B game too.

 

[Stammertime91]

1000% pulling for you guys. Get it done and put an end to this Panthers bullshit. Please, I beg you.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Maurice sounds so full of shit whether they win or lose

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

What happened to Tkachuk and his rat shit? Buddy was a ghost out there tonight with Kane shadowing him.

 

[Austerlitz]

There’s a legit argument to be made that, in the playoffs, there isn’t a better dman in the NHL today. He’s that special

Its true but be careful. If you say that three times into a mirror, it summons a dozen Canucks fans in Hughes jerseys.

 

[Stammertime91]

Those are some big bags under Paul’s eyes.

they hold the money for ref pay offs

 

[Cloned]

You get the feeling that Maurice doesn’t even care if he loses this series because he’s already won one and he likes McDavid

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Those are some big bags under Paul’s eyes.

There’s a giant bag of shit behind his eyes too

 

[foshizzle]

Yep. This is the best possible game Bennett can play. Panthers completely squandered it and in realtime I was saying Barkov cost the Panthers this as he was botching chance after chance. Then Barkov gets clocked in OT for the winner. lol

Plus Ekblad was made to skate miles in this game and eating all the punishment. Ekblad has to do so so much for this Panthers club.

Kapanen hits the way Peca hit. I can’t explain it- but it’s such a heavy hit.

What happened to Tkachuk and his rat shit? Buddy was a ghost out there tonight with Kane shadowing him.

Hes not really the playoff monster hes made out to be.

 

[Oilhawks]

"We were down 2-0 to TO"

This ain't the Leafs, Paul.

 

[Pip]

Ekblad without PEDs is a pylon and even with them was vastly overrated.

 

[ruaware41]

Leafs fans cheering for y'all. Great game of hockey. With that said, this is why being a Canadian market is such a disadvantage.

First of all, no Carlina Hurricane analyst would do a podcast and talk about how Aho cheats on the faceoff or some other dumb peculiar shit like that.

Second of all, even if they did, it would gain no traction and no one would give a shit.

But it's Edmonton and a Canadian market. So you have the refs turning the game into football with the amount of stops and starts and delays on the faceoff. Refusing to drop the puck, phantom dropping it repeatedly, re-doing them, constantly kicking someone out.

It was wayyyyyy more than normal. Refs making it about themselves. Idk how these guys do it bc I woulda been losing my mind. You could see RNH spazzing at the ref. So annoying how some analyst can impact the game from their bedroom or little studio.

 

[Drivesaitl]

What happened to Tkachuk and his rat shit? Buddy was a ghost out there tonight with Kane shadowing him.

Tkachuk was nothing. He's injured but still. Gotta be better than that.

 

[avocadosmoothie]

played "Panthers hockey" better than they ever have. those guys were hearing footsteps for the first time all year long.

 

[foshizzle]

Dude kane was literally hitting everything

He was f***ing relentless too. When he came to Draisaitl’s defence…chef’s kiss. Panthers wanted no part of him
