Pre-Game Talk: There is no try - its do or die. Pregame Jitter Thread for Game 3

[bone]

Why was it even reviewable? How about all of Bennetts dirty charging hits and putting people out of the playoffs?

Panthers got a hotline to Player safety. Its an absolute joke this minor penalty was even reviewed. says a lot just with that.

Benttwit runs players all game. Touch a Panther and is suspension review.

Losereinen and Barcoff are fine. Who would've thought?

It's not Bettman that's the issue now.

ps Tickets down to 900 now for game 3. This is half the price they were showing originally. If anybody wants to buy in. I don't think there will be loss to wait though. Looks like prices headed in one direction and with a wait till thursday unfortuately, or fortunately the market is speaking. This is the only time tickets have been available to non STH for under 1K.

I know of a pair that sold for $6500 for Game 4 last night - after the loss.

Gary doing a hell of a job growing the game in the US. Maybe one year they will actually make it to 1%.

If only they didn't have to compete with the NFL/NCAA for those couple months in the fall.

We all know that's the real reason.

I love whining about the officials and they have been atrocious at times for both sides. Moreso missing Florida and their God damn slashing

But Edmonton could be up 2-0 in this series if they had any ounce of finish and the pp didn't suck balls

This could easily be 1-1 or 2-0 Edmonton. Florida still doesn't scare me. All they do is run guys and slash the shit out of anybody

Still disappointing game after kicking their ass and getting goalied

They better torture bennett Tkachuk if they are going to lose this series. Make them earn it

I get so disgusted when I even have a mental image of those two dirt bags. Just went to rabbit punch both of them for 20 minutes straight

All these southern belt bullshit teams with bullshit fanbases. All of our revenue sharing going down south to support them. And Bettman falling over his ass to help them. And For what? So a small handful of fans can enjoy hockey as their 3rd or 4th most important sport?

What makes it worse is Colin Campbell has already been busted for trying to influence officials in games his son was in a few years ago in the playoffs.

The punishment? He got promoted.

Bettman hobbnobbing with celebs and filling his fat face in the Florida owner suite last night was sickening. Why wasn’t he wearing a Panther jersey FFS.

2 standards of officiating is no coincidence.

Drake is getting screwed out of a half mil.

* But if Barkov misses any games at any point in the rest of his career, the league may revisit this, and suspend Drai.

That wouldn't shock me one bit. Watch if Barkov misses game 3 somehow, there will be 2 guys in black suits step in before Drai steps on the ice and take him away.

Drake just won a $2mill bet on India in Cricket said my uber driver yesterday.
I think he will only be slightly upset about being screwed

but Ariana Grande and some other fat rapper showed up to a game they know nothing about!

the goddamn Panthers have been there over 30 goddamn years and still we hear about how much the game is growing

its still light-years behind the NFL, NBA, MLB, NASCAR and the 20 college teams in in South Florida
LMAO

 

[Cloned]

One time I kissed my grandma does that count

No. Your sacrifice is much appreciated.

https://x.com/i/web/status/1800607388225126641

There’s some politicking going on here I’m sure.

I don’t think they could suspend him because the optics are bad enough already after the game.

Lol for real. Hockey is a joke down there and their franchises are too.

 

[ThePhoenixx]

I agree with Lowetide. With the way the refs were "reffing", Draisaitl pushed back because the refs would let him

I call it the Sean Avery effect.

You have Bennett who relishes that role. He took runs (Charged) at multiple Oiler Dmen last night.

Just like Avery, however, Bennett's teammates will be the ones who suffer for those antics. See Barkov.

That makes 23 fans then. Here I thought it was only 22.

Unfortunately the problem is all of us hockey nuts. We know it’s crooked, but we still support it. I consider myself a well educated, rational person, yet year after year I still watch and support something that I know is corrupt. It really is like a drug.

I liken it to when the Blue Jays/Raptors go on a run here.

A majority of Albertans pay attention and are excited at the time the team is hot, but maybe only 5-10% of those stick around once the dust settles back to normal.
