Post-Game Talk: Connor Magic!

[Davo Ikinzom]

McDavid now 50th all time in playoff points, and one point behind Corey Perry.

 

[BlackDogg]

PP needs to get going

 

[AnInjuredJasonZucker]

Klingberg? More like Iceberg. ‘Cause his passes be crisp like lettuce.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Pickard now with more Wins than Skinner this season and playoffs despite starting like 20 less games. lolol

 

[MessierII]

McDavid now 50th all time in playoff points, and one point behind Corey Perry.

That’s actually wild

 

[Mez]

every single post game the team praises Pickard for making the saves he needs to make.

It might be hard for McDavid to pass him if they are consistent linemates and score together

On a side note, much has been criticized about the Nurse-Bouchard pairing vs the Kings. But they were a force of nature tonight. 84.32 xGF%, 19-2 SCF, 8-0 HDCF and 77.89 xGF%, 18-5 SCF, 7-0 HDCF for Bouchard and Nurse respectively. That's probably the type of performance Knob/Coffey envisioned for these two from what they saw in practice and stuff.

Together in 8:54 of ice time, they had 7-1 shots, 10-2 scoring chances, 5-0 high danger chances, and a 89.31 xGF%

One thing they can improve moving forward is their play at the offensive blue line. Unfortunately did feed the Knights some transition game tonight. Draisaitl in particular had a few bad ones.

Skinner lets in that PK goal in the third btw

This is such a better place without people arguing over what goals Skinner should've had. Now we know what this team looks like with a competent playoff goalie.

 

[Macheteops]

I hated the Klingberg signing and thought he looked like trash in the regular season but he's been outstanding

Walman had some huge defensive plays too. That trade is looking big especially with Ekholm going down

And a lot of y’all hated the Klingberg signing. Stud.

I didn't hate it but I most certainly didn't expect this. I thought he'd be a 6/7 but he's been a legit 2nd pairing guy all playoffs, was really the only guy performing well early in the Kings series when everybody else was finding their footing.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

I’m f***ing pumped right now

 

[MessierThanThou]

every single post game the team praises Pickard for making the saves he needs to make.

Because it's still new to them.

 

[MoontoScott]

Hyman has quietly stepped up his game as well.

The injuries sustained down the regular season stretch are starting to fade into the rear view mirror. It really showed in the last few games.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

This is a crazy stat and a damned impressive thing to do game 1 on the road

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

every single post game the team praises Pickard for making the saves he needs to make.

That's all they've ever asked for lol

 

[oobga]

Holy f*** Bouchard!

Bouuucchhhh

On top of guys coming into our zone all night. Hope we are back to full playoff Bouch. He was a beast defensively most of last playoffs.

 

[Mr Kot]

Klingberg? More like Iceberg. ‘Cause his passes be crisp like lettuce.

I don't get it

 

[TB12]

This team is a f***ing wagon. Hope some of you start to believe.

 

[Cloned]

Pickard is at .896.

This team may never lose if he keeps putting up close to .900.

 

[bellagiobob]

Lol

 

[MoontoScott]

Because it's still new to them.

The obvious is often sublime.
