Post-Game Talk: Another banner raised! Panther shut out Kings in Kulikov's 1000th game

[I am not exposed]

Time flies. Remember watching that draft with the now Panthers PA house being excited over drafting Kulikov.
And his first few years he did show some offensive potential. Then his shot went from the goalies net to the net protecting fans in the 300 section.

Also surprised to an extent after the cup win no one came back to post lol. Seemed like the curse was lifted for some and they could finally stop posting here lol.

Thankfully attendance has gone in the other direction. Maybe numerous posters decided to actually go to more games than hate post here!

 

[CatscratchFever]

Just win.

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Free Boqvist and we'll get JLD back.

Also, why did you @ me, I'm pretty sure I've posted almost every game thread.. has your internet been downgraded?

I'd be surprised if ABo is still with the team after the TDL. There's no way Mo is going to let him play in the playoffs. So yeah... free us from Boqvist.

I get it for most people. @SoupyFIN leaving to follow NBA is clownshow though. Also too some good people should check in once in a while, @FlaPanthers11 used to have some of the best posts here. Even now I went to his last post,

always fun

At least you were mentioned. My posting confidence is shot to sh*t

I took a grade the player thread from 2018 where OP of that thread @'d most of us and then went through the first 5 pages of the game 7 thread and gave up, I didn't put much work in. The whole thread is a fun read, some good memes there

Kucherov piece of shit applies to what he did against Detroit just like, yesterday lmao

BOOM

I’m way ahead of Felidae

Complaining about potentially not making the Finals for the third time in a row just doesn't have the same oomf as complaining about Barkov being beta or Bob being a seive or Ekblad being fat (n/m, still see this as a complaint).

 

[Panteras]

Call me when the playoffs start

 

[PanthersHockey1]

If I had a dollar for every time Goldie said Kulikov shot misses the net throughout his career I’d be able to own the team. Gotta love kuli though he was a beast in the playoffs.

Why not all four complaints? That’s where I am, plus Tkachuk, Swaggy and Benny. And Balls. My complaints almost stop there.

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Cup winners or not, if the team plays like shit for an extended period of time and your star players disappear for weeks then complaints are valid.

That being said, January this year has been fairly bad offensively when comparing to the last few seasons.

24-25:

23-24:

22-23

Goal scoring is down dramatically for the month (unless we somehow score 10+ tonight) which could be partly due to a significant drop in power plays compared to the last few years. The advanced stats or whatever look similar to last year at this mark. And while Bob/Knight is a less effective tandem compared to last year's Bob/Stolarz, the lack of goal support hasn't exactly helped either.

 

[Gentle Man]

Ill attribute the drop in scoring to the lack of offensive help from the blue line. Whether Montour scored or not, he still had offensive talent.

I’m pacing myself Sergeant!

Just win. A Kings game 2/3 through the season grind doesn't exactly scream exciting. I did buy tix for CBJ 3/20. May end up regretting that one.

Whos in net?

Whos in net?

One of first 5 shots

 

[wampa13jku]

Took a week off since the shit show with LA last week, hopefully they show up today. This team has me on sleep mode with this win 1 one lose 1 bullshit.

yeah

they need to go to win 5 lose 5 like they did last season. That sounds better

 

[Gentle Man]

Heard Mark Pysyk is doing the silver stick ceremony. Can you confirm @ucanthanzalthetruth

 

[PSLguy]

Kulikov is the 402 NHL player to reach the 1,000 game mark.

 

[KW]

Doughty’s first game of the season since breaking his ankle in preseason. Against us, ofc

 

[Gentle Man]

@ucanthanzalthetruth got an Eiffel tower in his pants right now

 

[batting1k]

Boom

 

[Sticksandsun]

Apologies will be accounted for in regards to Bennett.
