GDT: 9/21/20 - 8:00PM EDT - Dallas vs Tampa Bay [SCF Game 2]

[Flat Ronnie]

Jesus Christ, who cares about Jan Rutta. Our team is 3 wins from the cup.

 

[Felonious Python]

He didn't officially qualify, Tampa's likely petitioned for his name.

I think I read that everyone in the travel party is getting their name on the cup, but that was a few months ago.

 

[PRZ45MD]

To the multiple posters who misinterpreted...lazy = compliment, duh! Everyone knows that!

lmao

I didn't understand what he meant by "lazy" but after his explanation I'd have said "Hedman sneezed out two assists" tonight. He wasn't nearly as dynamic as Hedman can and needs to be. He likely has 2 more gears to give and I'd love to see them in game 3-7(if needed). If he shows those 2 gears, we'll be fine.

 

[The Gongshow]

Tampa had all the momentum in the first. Dallas got some PPs and tilted the ice a little bit. Tampa played decent in the 3rd to keep the 3-2 lead though.

Gotta be better on Wednesday for Game 3


...seen Stamkos?

I don't think anyone really cares what he really meant at this point. But I get what you're saying. To everyone he called out:

 

[SRQKiter]

The most impressive thing about this game, to me, was we dominated play after Dallas scored their second goal. Usually that goal would be a back-breaker, but we held stronger than I can ever remember us holding in a situation like that.

Exactly. Pretty rare for this team (which is kind of sad given that we have the horses to make it the rule rather than the exception). Let's hope it starts a trend.

 

[Master P]

I honestly think the bruins board is taking this harder then actual stars fans.

 

[CupsOverCash]

Good bounce back win. It got close but after that 2nd goal I thought we did a good job keeping it cool and shutting it down for the most part. Good win. Just 3 more!

It's just projection of their self-hatred.

 

[dbieon12]

So Stamkos is back for Game 3?

 

[Multipass]

Shattenkirk gets the game winner, also gave up the 2nd goal, fed Jamie Benn a great assist along with 50 failed clears and 10 icings.

To be fair it was also an awful change on that 2nd goal, but he sure has been a liability in the Dzone against Dallas.

 

[God King Fudge]

Dude they are so tilted that their shit team can't beat actual contenders. I love it. Bunch of scrubs. The team and their fans. The city and state too.

Fair assessment

You mean it's harder to win a championship when don't have the GOAT coach/player combo or can't buy them because there's no salary cap?

 

[The Macho King]

Pavelski has the best hand eye in the NHL. I don't know how you defend that goal.

He's got a pretty wicked knee-knee sense too.

 

[Antiramie]

That boy ain't right.

That boy ain't right.

Lmao gets funnier the more you watch it looped

 

[Stammertime91]

Hopefully Coop dresses Stamkos next game so he can qualify

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

Hopefully Coop dresses Stamkos next game so he can qualify

I'm quite certain he's already qualified. Regardless, this stuff couldn't matter any less. I want him to play because he makes us a lot better when he's in the lineup. We have to win the Cup in order for name qualification to matter and we still have a lot of work to do in order to make that happen.

 

[Dynamite Time]

That boy ain't right.

At least he didn’t lick him.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

We need Stammer because unfortunately we can only count on a small handful of players to score goals. Can we lean on Kuch and Point and Hedman to get us 3 more wins? Maybe. But Stammer would help.

Coop may not be Scotty Bowman, he might not even be Stan Bowman, but he's not a complete idiot. If Stammer can be in there and helping the team he'll be in there.

Jesus Christ, who cares about Jan Rutta. Our team is 3 wins from the cup.

Who cares about Ruuta? We had exactly 0 wins in the finals before he played a game. He single handedly turned the series around by just being in the lineup.
