Adam Lowry has to be the next captain of this team.

They tried. Lowry and Wheeler leading the way.
Can't expect anything more out of this group. Even if healthy, I think they would have lost in 6. If both Ehlers and Scheif are out next game I expect Vegas to cruise to a victory.
Beleive they're 5-16 at home in the playoffs now.

Just a fool
Welp what can you say even…. Top players didn’t show up for this game or even the series for that matter outside of game 1… just hoping for a miracle at this point.
Honestly, I’d be scared if I was a Knights fan. If they are just barely squeezing out these games against our current roster, just wait for actually good teams.

Yup, dumb penalties and goaltending might be the difference.

Even got a bouncing goal and couldn't win. These are tough losses because they've all bent within our grasp despite our depleted lineup.

Worry is that Chevy will say that this run was ruined by injuries and "this core deserves another go"
I don't think the players will let him. They've looked checked out at times even this season.

37 year old Wheeler who according this board needs an oxygen tank on the bench between shifts and "no hands" Lowry outshining PLD. Sad!
Kyle Connor - 11 goals in 39 playoff games
Adam Lowry - 9 goals in 43 playoff games
Tell me again who is supposed to be the world class goal scorer between those two.
f*** Kyle Connor, guy is useless in the playoffs.

Lots of little things to get upset about......but really, this could be 3-1 for us just as easily.

The surprising TOI beneficiary of Scheifele going down was Stenlund. I'm surprised they didn't try getting more shifts from better players.

he's prob still traumatized from the 2017(?) playoffs.
(no disrespect to anyone, who suffers from trauma)

Some knucklehead even said sit Wheezer in the PGT!
They may have won with a full roster but it's not a good enough group to contend imo.
Will be very interesting to see what changes are made this summer.
Anyhow the team as a whole is probably playing about as good as can be expected given our injuries.
Helle hasn't been as good as he can, neither has KFC or Dubois.
Maybe Helle gets into God mode and Perfetti and Ehlers cab get back for next game to give us a skill infusion.
Still I'm proud at how the team has stayed in the fight and has given all they can.

Tough one again. This team shows a lot to admire given all the injuries. Pionk is logging huge minutes and looks like his Canadian division self. Demelo had a high end first pass, something we don't see much because he always defers to Morrissey. He really stepped up. Samberg is amazing too. You win in the playoffs with guys like him.
Having said that, the stars on this team (at least those that aren't injured) need to be better. Dubois is getting too many penalties and looked gassed tonight. Connor is way too inconsistent and tentative. It says a lot that I wanted the 3rd line out there with the goalie pulled. The elite players just haven't put this team on their backs and they really need to show up.

Sure some critical take can be warranted but we are down some key players. Scheifele, Morrisey, Ehlers and Perfetti.
Excuses are for losers but we have a talent level drop off with guys out.
It’s a best of 7. There is still a chance!

KFC has always been a perimeter player but he used to be able to score, he barely can do that this year which makes poor play even more noticeable.
Yeah, as someone said we just haven't had any luck with regards to health in the postseason since 2019.
Yeah I agree. They haven't been super quick or their traditional tenacity. I wouldn't trust their goaltending either.
