Absolutely huge game today. Learning to put the foot to your opponents throat when they are down is what needs to finally happen.

Demoralize them and the crowd. Win this game and go up 3-0.

This is the time to get it done. Let’s f***ing GO.

So... question for a friend. When is too early to crack open a beer today?

Full disclosure: I'm watching my 5 year old twin boys and my 3 year old twin girls while my wife works all day. I obviously don't have time for friends today so I'm asking for myself.

I'm on my third. Once I put the kids down for a nap I'm moving to blantons.
 
all the teams in the playoffs have 2 good scoring lines. Oilers might only have like 1 1/2. Rangers make it tough because of our kid line. They are throwing a wrench into other teams. Ok stop 2 lines is not easy but possible. Stop 3 lines that is not so easy. LGR

If we could get Strome to start scoring it would be huge. Tampa is going to try and feed off their crowd, need Igor to make some key saves early.

Two sets of twins?!

Do they haunt you like my twin nephews do? Whenever I come over, they say in an English accent "come play with us," and they're young, so I always go after my brother and his Mrs.
 
Kinda have the feeling that this comes back to NY 2-2.

I think that winning the first 2 was huge because the longer this series goes its advantage NYR (unless of course they just end up buying time for Point to come back and he actually comes back and is able to contribute.)

That said, they should have win game 2 by a much wider margin than 3-2. Vasi was really good and we can probably expect him to continue to be really good, even if we've been able to exploit his weaknesses.

Mods, please ban.

If it makes you feel any better I didn't think they'd win game 1 and after they won game 1, I didn't think they'd win game 2 as well.

But it's just a gut feeling. I have no idea how this team is going to perform with a pretty comfortable lead in a series because they haven't done it yet! Plus I just keep waiting for Tampa to make adjustments and do things that we haven't seen yet. Cooper isn't a dummy and that team is still good.

If I saw this yesterday, I would have agreed. But on game day, I'm gonna go with nevesis's all-out, no-rhyme/no-reason curbstomp attitude.

Today we beat them fools.

Bro. Two sets of twins. Holy crap. If you’ve been able to survive that, you need not be asking for advice from anyone. You are a sage. You are a next level human.
 
I have said numerous times that they are a threat every time out there, but they have never been in position to ward off a team of professionals that are trying to tie the game up let alone the defending Champs.

Want to try that today with a 2-0 game advantage leading by a goal or two with 5 minutes left? By all means.

But there is still a learning process that they need to go through and it is always easier to do when you have seen it done first.

These kids are the future. You throw older players into the lions den, let the kids learn.

This is not about earning anything. But it is about Learning
Disagree. The Kids have been playing extremely well during this playoff run and I see no reason to not play them within the framework of the game. Of course there are special circumstances during course of game like having a lead thirty seconds to go with faceoff in your own zone by all means put the most experienced defensive veterans out there, but to not play them as they have been arguably the best and most consistent line to me is not a good idea
