Post-Game Talk: Down 4-0 to BOS in the 3rd, the Cats use all 9 lives to come back and win it, 5-4 in shootout!!!

Bjugstad is one of those guys that I don't think will ever put it all together.

He seems to just be completely lacking any sort of mean streak or even competitive edge out there, which is a shame. He has the talent, and he's showed in flashes that he can maybe do it. But at this point, I don't think it's ever going to happen for him.

He was so dominant at Minny. You're right, he just has no will to compete. What a waste.

 

[I am not exposed]

He is worth about half what he is making. Any other #1 overall draft pick would have the panthers looking like a lot different team today.

I mean yeah, for better (McDavid) or worse (Yak).

 

[IceManCat]

we really need to get over the 4 goals a game shtick

 

[Prominence Problem]

Going to watch the 3rd/OT/SO while I eat lunch. After I'll leave some notes I had from the game. Really we played one bad period last night.

1st 4/7

2nd 0 / 7

3rd 7 /7

 

[Dread Clawz]

Martinez was someone I thought they would go after in the summer, didn't think Stralman was available. He's for sure available Kings being where they are atm.

Yeah, he wont cost Denny and Noel either. That's more for Brodin.

He really has become a great player. I never thought I'd see the day when this team could score at will. Unfortunately we also leak goals like a sieve.

This team will figure it out. This game was more about Bob sucking than the defense. Bob was really horrible.

But Q man. You gotta have a lot of clout to do what he does and is doing to the team.

Previous coaches have been figuring it out together with the team. Quenneville comes in and is more about No, THIS is how you win. Massive difference there.

One thing that I might be wrong about, but that occurred to me last night: I'm not sure Boughner would have pulled Bobrovsky to enter the third period. That's a $10m Vezina winning goaltender. Q has the cachet to pull him and then say after the game that he has to play better. I'm not sure a less accomplished coach would be willing or able to do that.

I think we are rapidly approaching the point with Huberdeau where we can stop and say "He is this good," as opposed to "I wonder when he's going to come back down to Earth?"

Case in point: The (few) posters who enjoyed chirping him have quietly let it go.

I used to question his skating all the time.
I no longer do. He simply knows now what he is and what he can do, and it's

I dope im not the Downer here. But no matter where i look everyone is impressive and goes crazy, of the Florida Panthers Comeback.

But for real no matter of the mental Game and the will of the Comeback horrible Game again. Sure everyone will take the 4 Points of the Rangers and Boston Game, but is that what i wanna see as Panthers Hockey?

I read social Media saying great Comeback, you read Player Interviews great Comeback, you read Team Media great Game. But what was so great??

I mean, we played 20 Minutes Hockey, was 1 Periode not able to bring on some real shots on the Net of Boston . In the next Periode, after they get a SINGLE Goal against, they complete Team had a Mental Break Down. TopLine was not even to get out of the Zone. When those are the great Games of Florida are, we have some serious trouble or maybe some different understandings how a Game should look.

Would you me or anyone here like to see, Panther always trail by 3 Goals or more and then has to put it much more Energy. Our Top Players would be dead tired, latest in February, in the Hot Time when it comes to the PO. This cant be serious they, this is the Best we can.
To get 4 Goals back and take a win is a great effort, but that has nothing to do with great Hockey Game.

A great Hockey Game is dominate 60 Minutes, get out with a shotout and scored 3 or more Goals. By less shot faced. Then you really play a great Game.
We speaking here of a Team that want to be in the PO and want to come over the 1st Round. If we play that kind of Hockey in the PO, we will be out in the 1st Round.

For my will, call it negative Post or dont can enjoy a great Win. But i dont want to see mental Breakdowns after a single Goals against in a Top Game.

 

[StrangeVision]

I've never been happier to eat crow in my time as a fan. It's been a real joy watching Huberdeau blossom into a dangerous offensive player.

 

[RealHumanBean]

Someone should probably make a thread about it
edit: "Someone" made one

 

[BabyBennettov]

Some posters here couldn't even enjoy water while lost in the desert... It's crazy ! lol

How did that team that doesn't care, doesn't work and has no will or talent, can be able to come-back like that ?

I really wonder ! It's not possible ! Last night game was a total-lie, it didn't happen...

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

This was Boston's 4th goal (the one where Bob made a great 1st save and Chara got the rebound). Look where Josh Brown (a defensive defenseman) is in relation to the play lol

Clearly holding back a Bruin

As much as Brown stinks, this wasn't his fault. He got caught up ice in a physical altercation.....it happens.

Now look at this, moments before Chara scores:

ALL FOUR GUYS in our zone are watching the puck, nobody thinks to look at the guy who just passed it. THIS is exactly what I'm talking about and needs to be address.

Now we move ahead a few seconds and not a single one of them has adjusted as they watch Chara easily pick the puck up and put it in. This is amateur shit right here, totally unacceptable to play defense like this at the NHL level and they have plays like this EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.

 

[PanthersHockey1]

I like the one goal where pysyk got caught at the blue line just standing like a pylon and bruins skate in and take a shot (that bob should probably have). But lots of blame on the defensive side of the puck including D-men, forwards and G.

Everyone deserves equal blame tbh

Somewhere, Jean Luc is quietly mumbling in a dark corner about Huby doing too many ''dipsy do's'' or whatever.

Nap 1
Me getting my notes out for the game last night 0

Unbelievable comeback! Obviously that can't happen every night but it's nice when it does.

All right first, horrible second, unbelievable 3rd. And then to win in a shootout is like a cherry on top.

It's like a saying I've heard in baseball before:

"Every Spark doesn't ignite a comeback,
But every comeback contains a spark."

I thought Bob had one soft goal (3rd), one not great goal (2nd), and one goal you just have to tip your hat to (1st). That first goal by Pasta is a good player beating a good goalie, with a good shot. Not much you can do there. Although Barky made a stupid drop pass at the opposition blue line on that first goal that led to the rush.

That fourth goal had a lot of parts to it. If you watch the clip when the Bruins enter the Zone, about four players skate right past Pysyk, and he's caught standing still. Then Bob makes an unbelievable save off Krieji, a save that in my mind wouldn't have been made last year. Then everyone is Puck watching, notably Conn, and Chara Scoops up the rebound and it's 4 0.
