Post-Game Talk: Bettmans panthers decide to take the night off ... AND STILL WIN!!

[Thewselius]

PK must have bought up all of R. Kellys glasses before he went to prison

I’d be surprised if Ekblad doesn’t get suspended

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

Imagine getting suspended two times in a contract year.

Ekky is trying to establish a bad boy reputation. That has to get him like an additional 500k pay raise.

This ESPN intermission is a shitshow

Messier was on the verge of crying

3 goals for in the last 8 periods.

Not going to win f*** all without scoring anything. Team's offense is nowhere to be found, not even Chucky could save them.

Expecting PoMo to have new lines to start the 3rd.

 

[BabyBennettov]

And now the whole ESPN crew is fuming over a nothing hit by Ekblad... loool

What the f*** is it with that love affair with the Lightning ? Holy macaroni !!

We've really become the Ric Flair of the NHL it's crazy.

First period was fine. Second period was going well until we collapsed. Which has happened way too much this season.

I think the Barkov hit changed the momentum of this series. Hagel is now a martyr after the suspension and the Ekblad hit. And Tampa is using that to boost themselves.

We have to get that arena buzzing this period. Get the energy back in our favor.

Ohh I thought it was a fashion show when I saw P.K.

aint gonna happen. POMO has his head in hiss asshole.

If Ekblad is suspended that should be his career here. Don’t think Zito will want him back

To be fair it was a stupid f***ing hit lol. At least we’re owning the douchebag thing.

 

[sinDer]

Before the Playoffs, I really thought that Tkachuk wasn’t going to be back or be a non factor if he plays. Not gonna lie, I had hopes after the first game and thought that maybe he was fine.

Could be adrenaline of his come back. It’s not uncommon for a player to look really good in a come back game after missing a long period of time and then disappear.

They’re not going anywhere without a healthy Tkachuk, especially if Barkov is not doing much offensively and Verhaeghe lost his clutch touch.

Makes sense as he is in our crowd.

Ekky isn't coming back. Zito wants mobile dmen, not immobile.

 

[StrangeVision]

He should be suspended, that was a stupid f***ing hit.

 

[ShootIt]

Tampa went from the frustrated team to composed and the Panthers went from their game to trying to hit Hagel and others.

Lack of focus.
Also, the forecheck and offense pressure I guess is still in Tampa strip clubs

Yeah. I’m willing to bet he’s got a groin/sports hernia issue that’s gonna require surgery.

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

He should be suspended, that was a stupid f***ing hit.

Ekky wanted to make up for that -4 he earned from the previous game. He's just a low end top4 dman. He needs a guy like Forsling to constantly bail him out of trouble.

 

[ShootIt]

Stupid play Mikkola.

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

Lmao makeup call

 

[batting1k]

What the f***?

 

[Chaos2k7]

Make up call?
