What is this idiotic infatuation with crowd noise and having a loud arena? Doesn't mean shit. One of the dumbest things I've read on here.

Truck nuts are also a thing, so who f***ing knows.

 

[Maelmoor]

Awesome start of the series!

Just need to remain humble, work hard and be ready for a fierce response by the Habs in game 2.

We won the first battle, but stil long way to go before we've won the war!

Eddie O has magnifying glasses for eyes every time the Bolts make a physical play and has that subtle "hey this is dirty" tone in his voice. Dude is the fakest neutral I've ever seen.

For real. Our guys “take runs” any other team “lays a check”

The difference in tone is palpable.

Lightning player crosschecks someone: "Cernak just WENT AFTER ____ with a crosscheck. It looked really bad. I think he decapitated the guy. Only the replay will say for sure. Yep, there it is! *clutches pearls* Oh my god that's dangerous. That's the 3rd or 4th times he's done that this game. Can't believe the refs didn't call that".

Opposing player crosschecks us: "Cernak gets crosschecked a little...anyway here's Wonderwall"

Yeah, it's terrible. Price dazzles when he snares Stamkos' shot--"unbelievable save!"--but Anderson just "shoots it into Vassy's glove" when the exact same save happens at the other end of the ice.

It's probably because he's as much of a degenerate gambler on hockey as he is on horse racing. Wouldn't be surprised if that moron has money on the opposition.

Dude sounds like everyone I've ever known who's watching a game with money on the line.

Total domination!

Kucherov was slashed twice really hard last nights, another time on the hands by Weber. It’s BS this is how TJ broke his wrist against Chicago

Hey guys - NYR nation still pulling for you - 3 more games. After the sports world was righted last week - I'm not jumping off. I'm taking the ride until the end. Great win last night.

 

[Matthew Carle]

Montreal fan saying cernak is the worst player on our team

Well yeah that sounds about right. Personally I'd prefer Andrej Sustr much more anchoring our defence.

Only way they can cope with getting their asses handed to them is that they were louder than us for the couple minutes or so until the Lightning hand out another beatdown and shut them up.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

The last time Carey Price let in 5 or more goals in a playoff game?

May 3rd 2015 against Tampa (6-2 win)
- Goals from Filppula, Stammer, Heddy, Kucherov x2, Brown

 

[The Macho King]

Apparently Edmonton really hates Tampa? Don't know what that's about but okay!

 

[U55]

I just wish we always put in efforts like this game. If we played the islanders like this it would never go past 5 games. I fear we are going to get cocky next game and make it way harder than it needs to be like we did last series.

 

[Benstheman]

Easy win Bolts!! Hope my Habs can make this a series though. We did start de same way against Vegas and grinded the second game into a win.

See you on Wednesday.

Cheers!!!

 

[Volodya Krutov]

The thing that stood out the most to me last night was Eddie Oz acknowledging Vasy is the best goalie in the world during the pregame commentary.

That confirms it, Price is just as overrated as I always thought he was.

Insecurity surrounding McDavid and Draisaitl's claims to best player in the world. It's all they have.

Yeah well. Tough thing to prove imo. At that point it is a more an opinion than anything else. For me it’s Vasi, Price, Hellebuyck. But let’s not forget the teams playing in front of them are not the same. Vasi plays for a powerhouse team and a great defense. Habs D, while playing well in the playoffs, is average at best and Jets D is simply atrocious.
