Post-Game Talk: Start spreadin' the news I'm leavin' today I want to be a part of it New York, New York

[Last Rat Standing]

Imagine it’s 2012 and I tell you ten years from now the Cats are back to back in the ECF

That Panthers team would have been in the ECF if they didn't suck so bad in overtime

 

[Chaos2k7]

Carlsson-Mahura







Nahhhh lmao, who am I kidding. Carlsson ain’t ever gonna suit up for this team again

Carlsson tore his ACL, he isn't available

 

[Gentle Man]

Carlsson tore his ACL, he isn't available

It's not an injury to his popcorn hand

He's good to go

 

[Two4Fighting]

My Butt Clenching Pilates were exhausting in the third period, I was rolling off the couch.
Thank you Forsling!!

 

[Two4Fighting]

You have to hear it to believe it, Panger says: "Florida hasn't been able to anything against Boston in this period" a few minutes later, Panger: "Boston has not had a shot in 14 munutes" wait, what? Didnt you say...nevermind,..why are they so Bipolar?

 

[letsgrowcactus]

Thank **** it's over. Whew.

I wonder how banged up they are after these two series? Barkov stopping that puck with his hand....man. Possibly saved the game but also, we're not going anywhere without him this year. So, like, do that but also in a safer way that won’t give us all a heart attack?

Need more from Tkachuk and Verhaeghe(?!?) next round.

Really don't know what to think about them right now. We’ve seen them play better. Is that good or bad?

Celebrate, get some rest, heal up a bit and then start thinking of the next series. We cannot come out flat again like we did again Boston in game 1.

Something something Mayan prophecy something something.

 

[Ratsreign]

Looked like Reinhart got hit by something

Looked like Maurice was kinda pissed when he first walked onto the ice. Like he told them to let’s go, shake hands and get the hell out of here

 

[Ratsreign]

Their PK is insane but it doesn't matter because Florida's couldn't score on San Jose. The Rangers powerplay is also so damn good (embarrassed the Canes which says a lot) but Florida's PK has been so so good I'm actually not as worried as I would be. Also Florida is definitely better 5 v 5. Series keys:

-Can the Rangers keep place with Florida 5 v 5?
-Can Florida's powerplay do anything (lol)
-Will Florida contain NYR's deadly powerplay?
-Which Bob and Shesty show up? Both almost unbeatable when on but they can be leaky.


My main reason I have little faith is Florida had a very very tough time with Boston who are MUCH worse than NYR. If they won in 4 or 5 I'd probably be feeling better.

This Boston series was strange. Almost like they are holding back a bit, idk if that’s all from trying to stay out of the box. I don’t know if we’ve seen “full on” Panthers yet this playoffs, only a few periods scattered throughout 2 series.

 

[Ratsreign]

Still seeing and hearing Boston fans cry about the refs tonight

lmfao

Mind broken.

It’s something to see. Every game, all game. All series.
Bitching & moaning tonight about perfectly legitimate calls against Boston.
they just feel that entitled, or
Maybe they just do not really understand hockey up there, yet.

Oh nah. You know for a fact this was the first caller of that radio station @WaitingForThatCab loves to listen to

He was among the ones acknowledging the Panthers fine effort after the final horn.
“Have another beer you bastards!!”

My girl said I wasn’t getting laid tonight if my dumbass put this paint on my face, and now the fukkers are gonna lose?? Hey Ref, it’s all your fault!!

Rangers are a whole different animal. Chucky and Verhege will need to really be productive. Rangers seem to have our number and we will need everybody to step as Forsling did against Boston.

 

[MarginNotes]

Yay!

Barkov with those blocked shots at the end.
Thought his hand got destroyed beyond all salvation.

I'm almost never nervous.
I was on the verdge of shitting my pants.

Nu kör vi över NYR, perkele!

 

[MarginNotes]

Swayman is overrated. What a bad goal.

Nah, he's brilliant goalie. Shit like that happens.

 

[IdleTraveller]

PHEW!!!! It felt like we grinded that win, but bloody hell, am I relieved. I was watching that last period this morning and couldn't breathe those last few minutes.

Oh Barky: my crush on the guy has now reached unhealthy levels to the point where it's a very good thing that there's an ocean between us otherwise he'd be forced to take out a restraining order against me, and the poor man does not deserve that... Really hope that his hand is OK - f***, are we lost without him. And Bob, Forsling and Lundell - next on my stalker list [evil laugh].

We need to be better though. I'm still new to hockey but I feel like we have more talent than this but we're not showing it. I do believe we play better as underdogs with a chip on our shoulder, and nothing better to take on the President Trophy winners....

PS. I need to drum up some hatred for the Rangers ahead of the series. Although that should be relatively easy if TNT continues to be so utterly partisan for large market teams. God, I hate that panel.

Bruins had Our number in the regular season as well.
Rqngers havent faced an opponent like us in the playoffs yet

I’m not convinced that Barkov blocked it with his hand. He was motioning that way but at the last second he moved his hand behind the shin pad, at least partially, and it looked like his leg took at least the initial puck hit. But it’s a bit hard to see on the replay they provided.

Ne thing’s for sure though, if Barky doesn’t block it, we’re looking at game 7.

 

[PanthersHockey1]

It feels like we conserved energy a ton all season now it’s time to use the store batteries in the next 2 rounds

Anyone know where the full clip is?

 

[Felidae]

He's not wrong about Forsling and I get what he's saying. But that's such a vague, non-answer.


You could also say Ekblad is the best at playing his style of hockey. A turtle on skates..

 

[Ratsreign]

So who has the clip of Panthers shaking hands with the retiring linesman.

It would be a fitting final dig to post on main board series’ thread.

“See!! I tole you the refs loved them!!”

 

[Ratsreign]

Something like..... f*** you, cheap bastard, you suck, your suck, f*** you, man you’re a helluva goalie kid, f*** you, f*** you, ha ha whiner, hey how’s it going fat Pat?

 

[CanePanther]

So my guess is Rangers will be favored not by much but they have home ice and winner of the Presidents trophy.
That being said Panthers have the most recent success of going to the Cup.
To me I see this as a toss up. Both teams are very talented offensively and both have great defenses and goalies.
This is going to be fun……..

It hit toe of his skate and then his hand palm side which isn't protected. Hurt like hell for sure.
