it was probs not a 100% legal hit but I loved the pasting Cuylle gave Suter last night. dude's a dirtbag and deserved it wholeheartedly.
also, Robertson was totally invisible last night. heard his name, like, twice.

Yeah, when I say finishing it means everything. There are scenarios where they don’t get a shot off because of poor decisions. That is a part of finishing imo. It’s more than just hitting open net, it’s creating the opportunities to hit that open net.
Zibs is the most obvious one. Everyone knows he’s forcing the puck to Kreider in a 2 on 1. Take what’s given to you. If Zibs starts using his wrist shot from the middle of the ice, a lot will change for the better

I voted Igor, Kakko, and Ryan. I thought Lindgren was excellent in the third. That guy is such a warrior.

Just for fun, go back and rewatch the Kakko goal and notice the difference in player movement through the high slot off of a high cycle. Guys actually moving instead of two just standing at the net waiting for something to happen opened up the seam for Gustafsson and Kakko. You’re welcome, Kyle Smith 
Now, go rescue Tomasino from Nashville Drury and stop wasting time on bums like Wennberg

Really nice cycling on that play, and Kakko's shot was a ripper.

That Kreider empty netter should have counted BTW. It looked like it crossed the line with about .1 seconds left. Kreider was robbed of number 29.

It's nice (even great) to have him as a back-up but anything beyond this is silly.
TV clock isn’t the official game clock, it’s entirely possible the real game clock had expired

Guess it has to be down to the disparity between the on-screen timer (it was actually 0.2 you can see it on the highlights) and the clock the zebras are using.

This is true.
Yup and the fact that the goal didn't matter and they didn't want to drop the puck again.

They should count it because Dallas pulled their goalie with like 8 minutes left and should be smacked for it.

There has been a near 1:1 correlation between Gustafsson's hot and cold streaks this season and the team's macro performance.

BTW, I thought I clearly saw Lafreniere pushing puck to Panarin on Fox's goal but Lindgren got the assist and it seems to stay. Was I hallucinating?

It means the team is starving for offensive puck movement from the D.
Nope looks that way. Just went back and looked at it. I think the scoring guys at MSG last night were frauds lol
At very least he created that by driving the net ( I know that doesn't credit him for an assist just saying).

I agree, I've seen the NHL do this before- when the game is cooked and the puck goes in with under a second and they just say ef it who wants another pointless faceoff.
But I'm sure it pissed off some betting folks who hit the over (4.5) and made some others happy who bet the under.

Panarin has become a given as a top 3 in every game.
Is Kakko teasing us or has he figured it out?
If it's the latter, they have as good a chance as anyone to win the Cup, even without a move.
Edstrom should never be scratched again unless his play takes a nosedive.
