GDT: ECSF: Game 1 - Florida Panthers vs Boston Bruins, 8pm ET, ESPN

[ijuka]

So Ekblad now has an assist, a screen etc. what a great game for him.

Oh right, wrong team.

[Bruce Granville]

So the Rangers walk to the finals…

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Tip cap to Boston, this series would have started last week if they played the last 3 games like this lol

 

[BB79]

Excellent period, keep it going B's

 

[gn2007]

The arena is dead quiet lol

 

[BelovedIsles]

Not convinced the Cats can score three against this defense and Swayman.

"Leafs were beaten by the best team in the East in the 1st round, terrible luck and matchup, again."

[SEALBound]

Three Grade A+++ shots by Boston.

 

[Cyclones Rock]

So the Rangers walk to the finals…

I'll guess that they'll fly

 

[Bruce Granville]

7 shots, 3 goals…why did you return to that period?

 

[Fern111]

We are very rusty.

This is reminding me of the series vs Vegas. Too much time between series kills our momentum.

We need this to go 7 and hope the Bruins fatigue catches up to them. I guess I was right to be pessimistic about this one.

 

[Walking The Cow]

Ekblad has been like Mac in Always Sunny, giving ocular patdowns.

NHL doesn’t like 2goal leads in playoffs. . . expect some game management in third period

Who said THAT??? (quotes?)

 

[Leonardo87]

Boston looks really good.

Boston just a smart vet team that knew the extra rest would hurt the Cats, very savvy.

 

[TheBeard]

What lol?

HE WAS ATTEMPTING TO LIFT HIS SHOULDER, MADE IT LOOK AS IF HE DUCKS!

 

[Bruce Granville]

I'll guess that they'll fly

They have so much free time after two more sweeps…might take a hike.

 

[hockeyes]

It's not uncommon for the team coming off a tight 7 game series to get the early jump on the team that coasted through a round and was sitting around waiting.

6D chess

 

[Givememoneyback]

Ekblad omfg I just can't believe how trash he's been

1st overall. Feel for Forsling trying to cover for him everywhere.

 

[BMOK33]

I think we'll see exactly what I predicted...easy Boston win 4-1 or 5-1 in game 1, then the energy wanes from the momentum they had and they get clocked in game 2 3-0 and the series starts after that.
