This games over I can’t trust Martin to hold Florida to only 3 goals only way we win is if we score 6 likely

Burns is so bad out there it's like watching Brindy in his last season. Slavin is masking so much of his shit play, but when he gets in a position to be THE guy it's clear the game has absolutely passed him by

Martin is trash and Burns is probably at replacement level right now. That's pretty much the difference in this game.

I said it earlier this month and will reiterate... If there is a way to keep Orlov after Nikishin comes over, do it. We need to be moving on from Burns

Someone’s playing their off side if they do but… Slavin - Orlov would be awesome.

I will say, we all want Svech to find more “Tkachuk” in his game, but every time he dials up the Tkachuk-meter even by one, he gets 4 minor penalties for breathing on guys.

I don’t know how Florida gets away with it except I guess there’s a ceiling to how many minor penalties a team can get called in a game and the refs come into Florida games with a different chippiness barometer.
He typically gets his penalties through stick work versus hitting someone (like 19 did to Necas). I’d be ok if 37 hit verhaghe, Barkov , forsling, and gave them a good pounding. He doesn’t play like a power forward.

Actually we dont. If your goalie can't stop a simple shot that's not really on your team.
Even with shit goaltending, and Martin HAS been shit, that's a f***ing layup of a chance for a goal and they pissed it away. Possible they play with urgency if it's 2-1 instead of f***ing around at 3-1 but that was still the worst pp sequence I've seen from them all season considering the advantage in ice space
