Post-Game Talk: Walking cane

[PANARIN BREAD FAN]

the canes basically played their system perfectly the whole game and lost by 4. they have no answer for us and we didn't even have our #1 goalie.

if we played shesty tonight we would have lost.

halak has been playing better for quite some time now.

 

[MysticLeviathan]

brutal 2nd period but they more than made up for it with the 3rd period. great win

 

[Leonardo87]

That pass from Vesey on the 4th Bread goal was SICKEST

He had 2 assists tonight I believe.

Hasn’t been talked about enough, if at all, but Trouba has been outstanding lately. Back to normal. Minimizing mistakes and having positive impacts.

has been back to normal since the break.... whether it was a mental reset or health related.. I'm glad he's no longer a detriment

I want to beat the Devils in 7 and win the 7th game in the 5th OT.

I want to sweep them.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Or at least serve you with a restraining order

Yeah but from who? Gallant or Kravtsov

 

[17futurecap]

Will be good for Tarasenko and Mikkola to get some rest.

Fly to NYC Thursday, play Friday, fly to Carolina, play again.

It’s a lot, even for a well trained athlete.

I want to sweep them and Trouba to annihilate a pretty boy or two

the butthurt and crying if he lays out Hughes would be delicious

Same story as the playoffs last season. As Brind'Amour lamented, they have alot of great players but don't have enough game breakers.

Eh, pump the breaks there lol. Shesty will be fine.

Lol. Was out to dinner , took us over 2 hours to get our food. Our food was not good and dry. So it was worth choking on that dry sword fish to come home to that last period. Lol

Dry and gross food is worth missing at least that 2nd period. I had to leave for a late dinner, it was great, but I would trade with you 10 times out of 10 to see Panarin score 4 goals. Even missed the Kakko EN snipe.

Damn you baked ziti.

rope-a-doped them so hard, Muhammad Ali must have been smiling watching this game.

carolina fans get pissy thinking they dominated the other team when they lose, but if u play so aggressive and the other team beats that aggression, they give up a f*** ton of A+ chances. carolina had more shots, but we had breakaways, 2 on 1s, and great chances near the net that we converted on.

 

[CLW]

This is what I think but keep to myself. They can't beat us, especially in a best of series. Their lack of creativity will be their Achilles heel

RBigNose has choked the creativity out of them. Necas, Svech, Aho, Teravainen, Jarvis etc need to have fun out there and the puck on their stick, they are very skilled players. What's going on now is a travesty. Someone in the GDT said their style is a cheat code during the regular season and I agree - they can overwhelm weaker teams easily. But this won't fly in the playoffs.

 

[Killem Dafoe]

And did I see this correctly? Blais had a goal? LOL

 

[ecemleafs]

I was mostly joking, but if you don't overplay Mikkola I think he'll be decent enough

Fox played 21:38
Schneider 18:39
Mikkola 17:48

If the team can keep Fox's minutes down a bit down the stretch to keep him fresh that's a huge win

mikkola needs to settle down, but hes played 2 games in basically 3 days as a ranger. get some practice time in and familiarity and he should calm down.

 

[Cygnus 2112]

I was quite annoyed when, once again, GG played musical chairs with the lines. No time for Bread and Vlad to gel, I said to myself.

Jokes on me.

If they get Meier watch out.

The talent is there. I think if they don't go deep, questions about Rod's future will bubble up

Avs placed Hunt on waivers. He'd be good black aces depth

I'm sure they are exhausted. The next 3 days off will give them some practice time also.

 

[duhmetreE]

They need to give an assist to KAM for the Panarin breakaway

Absolutely

Idk what was more improbable coming into tonight, 4 goals for Panarin or 1 for Sammy Blais

Yup. We had a lot of quality chances and the skill to bury them. SOG mean nothing to me.

It’s like an alternate universe. Lol

 

[Grifter3511]

Don't look now, but Laffy has points in 7 of last 8 games.
