Man is the pity party over yet? I am confident this team can win three in a row and I'm pretty sure the team is too. They may not, but they ain't just going to pack it up and go home tonight. The same thing was said to the Avs and they had to go without seven starters and use a minor league goalie and almost pulled it off. Move on, disappointing finish and sure some things could go better, but acting like the series is over does no good. Players aren't going to listen to us thankfully, let's see what happens on Monday
Personally I thought there have been times when the team looked deflated even in the Vancouver series. It’s so discouraging to feel like you need 20 shots to score, and the other team needs a lot less than that. You finally get that goal and then bam, the other team ties it up without having to work nearly as hard for it.
I actually don’t think it’s over. A win in game 5, ESPECIALLY if the team finds a way to get some scorers going, could definitely change the momentum of the series. But first that needs to happen and I’m not feeling good about that part. A 1-0 win would make me less confident, but at least in that scenario it gives the team more time to figure something out and it’s a 3-2 series instead of 3-1. And there would be more questions about the Dallas offense in that scenario.
I wouldn’t say I’m confident, but I am thinking just win game 5 and it’s an interesting series again. That’s a lot more optimistic than what I’m seeing/hearing from most people. I’m mostly hearing that it’s over.
Is Stone going to be okay though?
