Every team is going to try to forecheck our D and give us no space in the offensive zone. That’s also how they’d play every other team.

Also fwiw, the reasons we lost to each of Boston, Montreal and Columbus were not the same each time.

I'm worried, I saw some analysis that Tampa is going to try to prevent goals against while also trying to increase how many goals they score. If they do that, we're in danger.
 
Me too. 7:30 start means 7:45 or 7:50 puck drop.

At least I'll get to watch Boston/Carolina before the puck drops I guess.
don't know what it is, but interesting stat would be what is our record with 730 starts?🤔
 
Besides incoherent playoff tactics and game strategy, Keefe might be weak on motivation side. In previous series they were not able to shake things up, change the course of the game, and that’s on coach.

It was mentioned on TSN 1050 today that Tampa Bay has not lost 2 games in a row in their last 2 playoff runs.

If that trend continues, getting a win tonight is crucial.

The growing list of things that our coach and GM are bad at is astonishing. We'd go 16-0 with either a competent GM or coach, can't imagine the blowouts if we had both.

Love Marner's interview when the reporter mentioned Keefe said he expects the series to be borderline violent, and are they ready for that?
Marner just says "yeah"....then adds "we've got big guys too"
Love the mentality of the team this year.

No more lessons to be learned, time to STFU and start showing up for the playoff!. If they cannot elevate their game, then they don't deserve the contract they are being paid.

Weirdly excellent. 10-3-0 this season. 9 regulation wins, +16.

Not exactly the creme of the crop in terms of opponents at 7:30, but 6-2 win over Tampa was at 7:30.

Edit: Tampa on the other hand, 4-3-0 at 7:30. 3 regulation wins, -3. We've got this in the bag!

sick!
 
That time of year again y'all. I can't wait.

A lot of us have been waiting for this exact moment and the team definitely knows what's at stake. Hopefully they come prepared and use the wild home crowd to their advantage.

Bolts have played a lot of hockey last few years. Hit them hard, hit them often. Put everything on net.
 
Jack Campbell is the X factor in this series. We need November/December Campbell and not February Campbell.
 
Anytime Kuch/Stamkos line goes out, Auston & Mitch should follow suit when we're the home team. Best on best, I take our top line all day to outscore Tampa's.
