Game saver

Florida is trying the "chickens with their heads cut off" strategy right now.

I think this is the swarm by Eakins

I think that’s the actual name of their system

 

[zeykshade]

Huge save Samsonov.

 

[Straight Fire]

Nice lob pass up, that was nice by the panthers

 

[Uber Coca]

Anyone ever choked on his mouthpiece? Feels like it can happen anytime when I look at Tkachuck.

 

[BlueSeal]

Now THIS is playoff hockey!

Looks turtling to me, they should build trap to neutral zone

 

[dhfa]

WHAT A PASS! That was perfect. Nice save too

 

[Felidae]

They've been the better team imho

Yeah can't really argue with that. Bob somehow turned back time to his Vezina years though

 

[Pablo El Perro]

I think that’s the actual name of their system

Defensively, yes

 

[biturbo19]

Nobody is claiming that. Our 4th line is him, Staalsy, and White. Not ideal, but those are the cards.

I mean, that's the point tho. It's a century old Staal, a guy who hasn't seemed able stay healthy or live up to his draft potential, and some rando like Dalpe who has bounced around to a dozen teams as a journeyman.

It's not like the Panthers are winning on depth. Their depth guys kinda suck. They're dubious FA pickups.

Now THIS is playoff hockey!

It's kind of like camping, because it's intense.

 

[mkatcherin00]

Verhegue looked like he could have easily went backhand deke, but it's a fast game

 

[Morlu]

What kind of camping do you do? Lol

Barkov with two interceptions created two scoring chances.

Guerilla urban camping.

Pun detector having an off day?

They just let off the gas when leading. Not sure why Maurice wants that but it is what it is. If Toronto scores they would pick it up again, like they immediately did in the beginning of the second.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Leafs have yet to play inspired hockey for a full 60 minutes. What are they waiting for?

Nothing pisses me off like a team down 1 goal that does nothing the entire 3rd and then turn a switch with 1:30 left.

Their top 9 is pretty good. Not all world beaters, and we are playing two of the slowest dmen in the league. It's salary cap hockey.

Barkov with two interceptions created two scoring chances.

By the end of this series he’s gonna take over

 

[pcruz]

Funny how Florida hasn't made any hits in the 3rd period really.

They probably feel like the first questionable hit is an instant major.
Bennet has been a ghost in the 3rd period.

 

[SatanicToedrag]

Barkov with two interceptions created two scoring chances.

And people will still complain he isn't doing enough
