NHL Season Thread: TB wins and Kucherov loves beer (1 Viewer)

Fun game. 

I've watched mostly north games this year  but these 2 teams would pretty easily handle any North division team imo. 

 
Tampa looks like a sloppy turnover mess
That’s what displeases me. For all their success, they can’t clear the puck from their zone on the first try to save their lives, and they turn the puck over at stupid times.

ETA: only for the power play unit to totally redeem themselves!

It’s nice for the Bolts to be playing a team that wants to push it instead of the cynical crap we saw from the Blue Jackets, Islanders and Stars last year. So much more fun to watch.

It would be nice to have refs do their jobs, instead of them being their usual terrible, that way there aren’t scrums after every whistle.

Yep, those scrums have nothing to do with the fact theses guys hate each other and plain old, playoff intensity.

 
I love it that after 3 awesome games today, Vancouver and Calgary are just putzing around the ice for some reason right now.

it's like watching a preseason game. Canucks obviously have no interest in this game whatsoever.

Lucic kicked a puck in the net and I don't even think they bothered to review it.

Fair enough, but after every single whistle? The Bolts are willing to punch somebody in the face, but I’d like to see some actual hockey as well.

 
A questionable goalie interference and then Bobrovsky happens
It was a shameful call. 

Great game though....I love post season Hockey....I don’t think there is anything as good as the chase of the Stanely Cup (Well I love baseball too...so the Post Season in MLB is also intense and crazy). Post Season Hockey is simply on another level and seeing it live is simply amazing. 

Panthers simply blew it on special teams last night. The Lightning capitalized and their Post Season experience showed. I expect the Cat’s to make some adjustments and even this series Tuesday night. It is going to be a grueling, hard hitting series and I fully expect it to go 7 games.

 
insert your obligatory looks like the Panthers are allowing full capacity again joke here ______________
I was there last night. We were at 50% capacity. We all had towels and we were extremely loud. Was a great atmosphere but not close to sold out. Just shy of 10K people. The place at full capacity can hold almost 19-20K.

That was not a shameful call. One of the easiest calls in the game. You cannot push the goalie pads with your stick while he’s trying to make a save. Come on.

Shameful? He clearly hit his skate and knocked Vasilevsky down.

In other news: Bennett has a DoPS hearing later today.

@bmcnally14: Sportsnet's Kelly Hrudey with a hell of a take on Caps goalie Vitek Vanecek's injury https://twitter.com/bmcnally14/status/1393729983936348160/photo/1
wish I could find video on youtube of the 1988 playoff game where Hrudey let up a goal and 19,040 Devils fans all pointed their foam fingers in unison at him

Anderson not looking very sharp, feels like he’s going to give up at least 5. 
 

also feels like a good night to get drunk, off to make a Rusty Nail

Prediction not looking good...

gonna go w Coyle for a goal line scrum winner 

 
Not the performance I was hoping for in the first two games, but I’ll take a split and home ice. 
 

caps play some well disciplined hockey. This will be a long series
