Series Talk: ECQF: Florida Panthers vs Tampa Bay Lightning (FLA leads 3-1)

...so, you agree, the dolts (both players and fans) crying about the refs is laughable.

ah, so your post where you were crying about the refs was actually a post about how no one should cry about the refs.

good post.

Ah, there's the real post. In the future, would be nice if you just skipped over the unfunny whatever tf and get to the point. Terrible post.

I'll bitch about the refs all day long unless they're calling it even. Yesterday's game was fairly even. Surprisingly. We could've certainly been called for more, but Tampa was hardly playing a "clean" game either.

Getting salty in here, I love it

How tf are dolt fans crying about the refs? Doucherov is the king of diving and holding a stick to get a hooking call. They let go of several penalties for both teams and let them play, the obvious being the too many men for the Lightning, as well as the dive on the Verhaeghe penalty.

Verhaeghe doesn’t have a cool nickname given to him by a kid who just learned his first curse words?

Interesting how many doltning fans have no argument as to the hilarity of their crying about the refs while also acting as though they don't call the Panthers "kitties," etc...But no, Swaggy wasn't in Tampa long enough. (winky face emoji)

I dont get the crying at all. There were missed calls both ways, bad calls, and some good ol diving. Bitching about the refs when the offense put up less than 20 shots for the game is pathetic.

They live and die on the PP, that's why Kucherov has mastered his ability to hold sticks, dive, etc to draw calls. As non-fan, it sucks and is one of the many reasons I dislike him, but I'll give credit where it's due, the refs have fallen for it for years and they still do.

Dolts: 6.5/10, kind of makes sense, sounds like Bolts

Doltning: you jumped the shark my guy

[Chaos2k7]

Can we call this competition for the worst pun a tie, and move on?

 

[PatchesOhoulihan]

Doosherov and the Dolts

Love it

needs a shoot out to determine a winner

 

[sjsharks92]

Over/under 5.5 goals in game 2?

It's impossible for Tampa fans to complain about the reffing today, 2 extra powerplays and a 4 minute PP with a tie on fresh ice in the 3rd and Florida got the best chances shorthanded. The 2 main reasons Florida is winning are Tampa's ineffective powerplay and honestly what the hell happened to Kucherov? 5 v 5 Florida has dominated as expected. Keys for a Tampa comeback are how much can they take advantage of the Bennett injury, how hurt is Forsling, and can they get Kucherov going on the powerplay? They won't win 5 v 5. Also healthy scratched Jeannot, who seems to be a Ben Chiarot Panthers level bad acquisition, they'd probably like if he did something.

I think Bennett very likely has a broken hand or wrist and won't be back in this series, so that's absolutely huge for Tampa getting back into it. I would expect Lundell moves up to the second line, Stenlund to the third, and then, uh, Lorentz to center the fourth?

I’m sure you’ll be fine.

Signed, a simple Doltening fan

 

[FlaPanthers11]

The answer of what happened to Kucherov is Forsling and Barkov. Will be interesting to see how well Tampa is able to get him away from them with last change but they suffocated him so far

 

[Hockeyholic]

Cooper's contract expires at the end of next season.

I assume TB extends it and he is the HC moving forward?

Looks like TB may need to take two steps back before taking a big step forward again. Mini retool.

.They’ve obviously done their homework I’m impressed as a TB fan.

At some point we needed to figure it out lol. Tampa kicked our ass for years.

 

[Zalos]

I still expect Tampa to win the next two games.

They’ve been huge, but he still has been making some uncharacteristic fumbles and giveaways. Could be frustration? He’s just off his game. But we have to keep that pressure on him and not let him get set up. He’s still very very dangerous specially on the pp. I’m honestly still shocked we survived that 4 minute pp.

Verhaeghe is an OT monster!!
