Looks like we may trade Ekblad for Hagel, both missing game five. I'll take it.

We lose that trade 2:1 if you look at sheer tonnage.

I think I am fed up with our 4th line. The are great at penalty killing, but don't generate anything 5-on-5. I'd be fine if we went back to Greer-Sturm(Nosek)-Gadjovich, they always looked feisty in the O-zone

The game four tying and winning goals should be replayed constantly, over and over again, in the upcoming team meetings.
Stop with the "Harlem Globetrotters" type passing and just get the puck on the net. Bombs away should be the mantra for game five.
Less emphasis on creating a highlight goal and get a highlight win instead.

hot take but i thought nosek made the 4th line better offensively, but sturm has the upper hand in face off wins

And show the empty netter to Verhaeghe on repeat

Lightning had 5 minutes to put this game away and did absolute dick-all with that entire powerplay.

Tampa fans should be pissed at their own players and nobody else. ALl this crying for suspensions and stuff is silly, your team is laying a f***ing egg.

Yeah, that would be exactly the tradeoff, especially with Lundell having some trouble against the TB centers. OTOH Nosek has been over 50% throughout his whole career. And we need more offense IMO

They’re past that phase. They’ve moved onto the “time to blow up our roster” phase.

I believe the DOPS calculation for suspension is 1 game per 100 pounds, so looks like we’ll be losing Ekblad for 5 games.

100% this.

Right before the goalS there was a graphic on ESPN saying we had 2 shots in the 3rd period (granted, that includes a 5-min PK).

But just get some pucks on net, doesn't have to be pretty. Look at Game 1 even: Bennett, Tkachuk from outside, Schmidt rockets... Just put the puck on net and sometimes good things happen.

yeah im ngl im not impressed how weve played so far, were struggling to complete routine plays and playing too aggressive on the hitting side.
Not seeing much of any nice passes setting up for a goal, although the greasy ones in front of the net are good.
that said were somehow up 3-1, but this seems nowhere as dominant as last series felt.

Top line has been shutdown by tampa, and not much from our 4th line which honestly i thought would be better offensively. At least defensively were killing it outside of a bad game 3

Honestly pretty crazy 5 out of 11 goals (not incl empty nets) have been from our blue line.

Losing mikkola and prob ekblad, and bet tampa is gonna come out for blood game 5 so well see who even makes it out of that game.

TB has a top 5 defense this year.
