Post-Game Talk: Panthers get their biggest win in franchise history, 2-1 over Devils in a shootout

[KW]

Man, they are dragging their bodies around the ice now. It almost looks like at this point, they hate hockey. We could use a covid break.
Nice 2 points to get. Good thing the Devils are struggling at the moment too.

Oh, and P.K. Subban is terrible. I had to mute the sound most of the game.

All I know is that Finland will lose every game in the Useless Tournament in Canada and Boston, because all 4 Panthers Finns will be coasting through it all.

I was sitting in front Markstrom. That easily did not go in

I was standing on the bench wearing a Rod Brind’Amour costume. That puck did not go in and the Canes did not get swept.

How this team is sitting a point out of first in the Atlantic while playing absolute dogshit hockey for most of the season is hilarious to me.

The contrast from last year to this year is pretty stark, but Maurice is getting the most of guys like Boqvist who continues to impress. They talked about it on the broadcast last year but the roster building from Zito and coaching from Maurice is a killer combo right now as they work their way through some cap issues.

Despite the struggles, I still think this team can go all the way this year, especially if they add a couple pieces at the deadline.

It is?

I remember big chunks of last season being terrible as well.

The team is still winning this year but there aren't nearly as many 5-1 or 6-1 games this year compared to last, the wins are more scrappy. For instance they already have four shootout wins this year through 45 games. Last year they didn't win their first shootout until game 48 and finished with four SOWs for the whole season.

This is why I watch ESPN for Hockey lol

I think the main thing is the East is garbage. Avs, Oilers, Knights, Stars all look like wagons. Hell even the Jets and Wild look good. Meanwhile in the East, full credit to the Caps but does anyone think that team is a threat? Carolina? Toronto? Lol.

You edited that. Devils fans said it didn’t go in.

What you guys need to realize is this team plays a very tough style of hockey. It is physically and mentally taxing. They cant win in a relaxed shootout fashion. They are built to keep the score low and the games at a slog fest.

The sooner you accept that they will take internal vacations, the better it will be mentally for you lol.

That was us last year through January. The only difference from last season to this one is we didnt ring off a huge win streak


Look at March last year

Thats a nice bunch of Ls there lol.


I think what bothers most of you is how we lose and not so much that we lose. But this is the 3rd year of them playing like this and they went deep both times. Factor in the roster turnover, and this is expected.

What matters is how they look post trade deadline before you make your initial and final assessments.

For now, enjoy the f***ery.
