GDT: 9/28/20 - 8:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Dallas [SCF Game 6]

Just f***ing do it.

 

[bodi]

After Game 4 I bet $50 on Dallas to win the series (12/1). I hope I don't win.

 

[HoseEmDown]

Vasilevskiy is rocking a sweet .896 save % this round with no games with less than 2 goals against. Would be really nice if he can show why he's a former Vezina winner who's about to be making 9.5M a year.

and zero shutouts this whole playoffs Elite goalies in the playoffs should get 2-3 shutouts

Go

 

[Maelmoor]

Dallas gave it all last game, they truly fought for their lives and guys like Heiskanen had a strong game.

But..

We were still the better team, despite not having our best performance and next to no PP time. Despite that Vasy, Kuch or Hedman were not as good as they can be.

If we can deliver a strong game, I like our chances.

I agree that taking the lead would help, then Dallas can't play their game and it opens it up more for us.

So please.. win! Go Bolts!

Vasy please remember puck drop at 8:15 not 9:15 est

Please don't hurt me Bolts

Vasy has never had a shutout in a single playoff game yet in his career...time for him to end that streak!

 

[Outl4w]

LFG! Close the series tonight. If it goes to 7, I will get nervous. Strike Hard! Strike First! No Mercy! We must give it all because this is our game 7. We can't afford to lose the momentum and go to game 7.

 

[Peacefool]

Go Bolts! Just Win!!

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Just like with the Isles, every single statistic points to us ending it tonight. However, there's always that doubt, we've been heartbroken so many times.
Kuch, Point, Pally, we need one more amazing game from you.
Hedman, hang on there for just one more game.
Vasi, we need your best game of the playoffs.

Rest of team, this is your chance to be a part of history. Do or die.

 

[Fabiobest]

The fact that we are a better team on paper (considering our second line, I dont' know if it's true) means literally nothing.
Show your superiorty on the ice.
Win the game.
Don't choke again: tonight it's a "do or die" situation for us.

Posting this for the last time. Let's try this again.

End this shit today!

I'm might be be physically sick if we lose this game.

why would you post that here? desperate for attention?

 

[Felonious Python]

I'm cautiously optimistic about tonight's officiating. My analytics would imply a Sutherland/McCauley pair, but I think they throw out the rotation for the last two games. (which they should never do, because analytics are always right and good)

The reason why I'm a bit hopeful is that the NHL doesn't want to stay on blast from guys like Kevin Bieksa.

Sports betting is the new 'I have that guy on my fantasy team'.

Yes, he's getting outplayed by Khudobin. The fact that Dallas is up 13-10 at even strength is proof of this. Not all the goals are his fault, I get it, but he needs to step up tonight. He's had bad lapses at bad times in his playoff career and he cannot allow another one now.

Betting against your favorite team to make sure you're at least happy for something is an old but good trick among gamblers.

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

No we need all of the sports karma we can get. I also have $30 on Dallas winning the cup.

 

[Felonious Python]

Well, well, well.


Predictive modeling would then suggest a Game 7 would feature Charron and either O'Rourke or Kozari. I'll have to tweak the proprietary formula to see if I can find which way it leans. Probably O'Rourke.

See, for me that would be ill-gotten gains and I wouldn't want it.

 

[Coburn and Condra]

Similar feeling to Game 6 last round, only a bit more nauseated this time because the stakes are higher.

If the unthinkable happens and we go to Game 7, it would suck, but we've seen teams come back from 3-1 in these playoffs only to lose in Game 7. This team is damn good and while it would have been nice to win Saturday night, if we lose the Cup I won't look back to that game. Why? Because this team is better than Dallas and shouldn't even lose two in a row (6 and 7) to them. It's all in front of them right now.

GO BOLTS!!!
