Post-Game Talk: Well it looks bad but they did it vs Boston. 3-1 Vegas lead

[Chessarmy]

A few moments where Vegas had us hemmed in but overall not bad. Bobrovsky made key saves.

 

[FinlandPanther]

Vegas dumping the puck in Ekblad’s corner every chance they get and they’ve come out with the puck everytime.

 

[DarthRevenue]

can't help but to believe pomo told them to dial back the physicality b/c of the penalties

still just doesn't look like the team that we're used to seeing, we're not going to finesse our way to a win

 

[GermanPanther]

Scoring is so hard for our guys... shooting more and not missing the net would help the cause

That is also a matter, that a lot of our Players turn inside to the slot to shoot and like Barkov and other you face then 3 Vegas Player who try to block the shot.
Vegas have a tendency to collapse in the high slot and slot.

This was probably our best period of the series…

 

[PSLguy]

Need to crash the net and get the shots from the point through.

IMO, lots of luck involved with how well Hill is playing. I don’t believe he’s as good as his numbers suggest, but Vegas blocks and deflects lots of shots as well.

Was the goal as weak (ie defensice breakdown I mean) as it looked? Otherwise team looked good

Yes!

Yup. Horrible line change. Guys went to the bench and the puck wasn’t even over the red line.

 

[PanthersHockey1]

I don’t think we’ve given everything we are capable of giving so far this series.

Absolutely braindead decision by Ekblad

 

[ShootIt]

Ekblad you doofus.

Hopefully Zito can Huberdeau him

 

[GermanPanther]

i hope so too, Ekblad would my favorit for trade out or buy out.
And trade is no option.

Even Gretzky says to Choose Violence

 

[Mogo]

At least in the second period the bench is farther away. Maybe Ekblad wont make stupid line changes

 

[Egblad]

Vegas is doing a great job protecting the front of the net. We are having a lot of trouble getting into the slot for scoring chances. Shooting from the point without net front presence won’t do us much good.

 

[GermanPanther]

Even Gretzky says to Choose Violence

he said play physical but dont take stupid penalty. The Problem is, like we saw in every Series. Our guys start to checking arounda and latest after 5 Minutes, the first overdo by crosscheck or elbowcheck or roughing and get to the PenaltyBox.
Our tendencie to get overexcited is very high, Lomberg is a special candidate for that. Gudas really play on the thin Line.

Absolutely braindead decision by Ekblad

Are we absolutely sure Forsling didn’t have something to do with the mistake?

 

[CanePanther]

Great players make great plays in great games it was Verhege in game 3 we need somebody to step up early in period 2.

 

[GermanPanther]

At least in the second period the bench is farther away. Maybe Ekblad wont make stupid line changes

hope he has enough air to reach the Bench

Jus keep crashing the net we’ve done that all season.

Go Panthers

 

[DarthRevenue]

why must we always have a traffic cone on defense?

2021 Yandle
2022 Weeger
2023 Ekblad

Wasn't that long ago when ekblad was in the norris discussion

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Ekblad isn't playing well tonight IMO, but let's not compare him to Keith freaking Yandle.
