Series Talk: 2021 Round 1 (West division semifinal) vs Wild

[LadyStanley]

My DVR is showing only national games (e.g., NBC and NBCSN).

Sunday's game is on NBC (national), but Tuesday's game should probably be on AT&TSN?

 

[LadyStanley]

Ok?

Yoo, Nosey boi is back!

He's skating top line, meaning Patches is most likely out. Don't like that one bit. We all saw Patches after his injury in the POs last year, and it wasn't pretty.

Possibly no Martinez and Pacioretty against a team the Knights have trouble with?

Next thing you know, Lehner will be announced as the starter tomorrow.

It would be devastating if Patches returns and plays like he did in the bubble. Clearly wasn't the same player as he's been throughout his time here. He's been so good. I don't think they can win it if he's not in his usual form

So since nothing has been said, safe to assume the goalie rotation continues?

There was an article in the Review Journal arguing to continue the rotation, saying it keeps the goalies fresh and it’s an advantage to give the opposing team different looks. I don’t think that will be too popular around here.

 

[Vegas07]

Early in the season it was argued the rotation hurt because the goalies weren’t as sharp after getting too much time off in between games. I’m glad that theory was disproven.

 

[Vegas07]

It’s about time the team has a rested Fleury (if he plays). Two years ago the team played him too much and unfortunately he gave up those 4 goals in 5 minutes in the game 7 collapse, followed by the winning OT goal.

If Vegas loses game 2 while scoring 0-1 goals then the series is as good as over. They have proven they let goalies get to them and the worries this is just who they are in the playoffs will be there.

They'd also need to win 4 of 5 against the team who beats us 2 of 3 times.

 

[Haguerbomb]

Please. Not this shit again. I thought that anemic offense was gone.

This came up in my FB memories today.

It took me like half period to figure out both goalies were on it. In my own defense, we got in our seats after the anthem.

Please. Not this shit again. I thought that anemic offense was gone.

We picked up right where we left off.
