Series Talk: Round 1 - Panthers vs. Lightning - Battle of FLA Part 4

[Chaos2k7]

Looks like we are locked in for another round vs. Little brother.

 

[Idiot Stick]

Not the most ideal matchup prob being down a few key players
Hope the rest was worth it

The road to the Governor’s Cup begins again.

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Rely on our strengths: lying, stealing and cheating.

On paper the Panthers' bottom6 is better than either that of the Dolts or Laughs (goat lending too in their case). Everything else is subject to debate.

 

[Chaos2k7]

I don't see the Bolts holding up to our forecheck but the PK will need to be on point.

Cats in 6

Injure Kuch before he injures you.
Ignore Cooper and Tampa strip clubs.
Crowd Vasy.
Watch Cirelli lose his shit.

This matchup isnt a lock yet is it? TB can still technically pass Toronto

…. aaaannnddd here’s why Paul rested his top players (and followed the Kuch principle with MT)

Toronto needs one point to clinch and they have Buffalo and Detroit lol


I’m guessing we start on Easter Sunday

Main question to me is the health of our team. Are we indeed expecting everyone aside from Tkachuk and Ekblad back for game 1? And any update on Tkachuk aside from his skating with the team?

I know it's probably not going to happen but it would be great to get home ice... Hoping that Buffalo pulls it off ;-).

 

[Panthers Propaganda]

Not ideal would have preferred Toronto

 

[Last Rat Standing]

Not ideal would have preferred Toronto

Still not set in stone. Ottawa wins out and Panthers lose out. Apparently 47 wins will lose to 46 wins due to that bullshat RW/Shootout wins/Parking lot wins

That room is broken

They will give less than zero effort tomorrow lol

 

[Last Rat Standing]

They will give less than zero effort tomorrow lol

Which means the Rangers will win 4-0

Not totally sure, but the feeling might be mutual, pretty sure I heard Toronto fans chanting they want Florida too.

Who said 19 isn't on game 1? He is expected to start.

Oh - that's great news!! Thanks!

Who needs Tkachuk when we have Pulju? Given that Edmonton picked him before #19, he must be better, right? Plus 20>19

 

[Sticksandsun]

Tampa it is. Let's take the Governors Cup and shove it up their ass.
I expect physicality, forecheck but also a finesse on offense.
Bob needs to be elite 60% of the time.

My confidence in the defense isn't at same level as the Cup team but my confidence in the majority of the returning cast knowing the route to success and not panicking but having the assurance of knowing Maurice’s system(s) work.

I believe in the back to back happening.

 

[CatscratchFever]

Oh - that's great news!! Thanks!

You spoke like you knew differently.

You spoke like you knew differently.

Some guy said he maybe might have heard that theres a possibility that theres a slight chance of a happening where tkachuk may or may not, and this is just speculation, but maybe hearing this that he might not be ready by the time where they may think he may have returned

Maybe
