Stanley Cup Finals: Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Colorado Avalanche ( Avs lead 3-2)

[Vasilevskiy]

Well, it makes sense that if we have to make the 3peat we make it in the most epic series of all.

I expect Colorado to give a game 2 type of effort. They don't want to go back to Tampa. I expect us to give our best effort. It might not be enough but the guys will try.

We can't afford any more games to go to overtime. too many veterans with no legs in the roster. Long games don't suit us against the avs

Completely tainted run. It's a shame we never get to find out if Colorado could have won like men.

Shaking off slurs and death threats to score a hat trick is rather manly.

Home ice advantage seems to cater to each respective team in this series.

Kadri is an inveterate piece of shit who cheats and cannot beat men in a competitive sense unless he is deliberately injuring them. Complete taint.

Amazingly the city of Saint Louis turned him into a sympathetic figure.

It didn't.

Also, that's never going to get called for too many men, but JC is trying to influence the refs for game 5 and any smart coach would do the same when their team is on the ropes

Excuse me? What are you trying to say here?

Pretty clear. Maybe go to reading school

The rest of North America disagrees. I'm sure Berube has no comment on the matter.

I was replying to your post BEFORE I saw your other posts. Sorry I upset you.

If the Avs win the cup, nobody can debate about them having an easy path. They just shut down a red hot McDavid and Draisatl last round who were both on historic runs putting up 4PPG each and now they're shutting down the back to back cup champs. And they're doing this without their #2C and their #3 dman. Very very impressive.

I mean they put up 7 points in 4 games. Not sure that's 'shutting them down'.

More like they overcame the historic performances with depth.

Thats a lot to spend to see an L in person!

Would be a bit weird for a Lightning fan to spend that much on game 5 tbf

 

[slobbergob]

Tampa is so good at clogging the slot and blocking shots but man, you gotta think that's starting to wear on them. They just seemed completely beat up and out of gas in that OT.

What's clear is that you're whining worse than my 15 month old toddler because you're still butt hurt about events that you clearly lack an ability to view objectively.

What's also clear is that you're justifying racism and death threats from your fellow Blues fans because it's Kadri meanwhile I'd be willing to bet you also have no issues with Binnington's past bigotry.

He beat Vasi so completely last night that the puck stuck in the net !!!

We’re missing Girard and Burakovsky. Teams are banged up in the playoffs.

As a neutral fan I'm lamenting that this probably isn't going 7 games. Not trying to discredit the AVs.

I would have liked to have seen the series where Point, Girard, Bura and Kadri were all healthy.

11,000 posts, here's to hoping they arent all whiny dribble. Wahhhh the big scary Kadri man did bad things.

SCHADENFREUDE!!!

I still haven't seen any evidence that the ice is bad but I keep seeing it brought up. Where's the proof?

Kadri's interviewer mentioned that he had told her the ice at Amalie Arena was trash. He said something to the effect like well what would you expect given that it has been like 105 degrees F in TB in the days leading up to the game. Regardless, back to Denver and hopefully we don't have to deal with that anymore.

 

[avsfan9]

Crafty veteran move by Stamkos at the end of OT. Knocked the puck loose and tossed it under Vasi to make it look like he made the save.

What a dummy. Don’t he know they have cameras everywhere?

Edit: Never mind.

Hey buddy, in hockey you can't have 6 players and a goalie on the ice at the same time. That's called a penalty. Glad to help out a newbie. Let me know if you need anything else. I can help explain power plays to you next!

So cancel Tampa's go ahead goal where there was 7 players, cancel the OT goal where one Avs player is just getting off the ice and you have.....

A 3-1 SERIES LEAD YAYYYYY
