Series Talk: ECSF-Florida Panthers vs Boston Bruins (FLA leads 3-2)

[KillerMillerTime]

What the hell would he be aiming for beside the head?

He makes it seem like he stiff armed him.

I was wondering where Pavel Zacha’s playoff goal scoring futility ranks in annals of NHL history.

Since 1967-68 there’s been 13 forwards with more playoff GP without scoring a goal.

Here’s all 30 forwards with a minimum of 20 playoff GP and zero goals (since 1967-68).



And the teams they played for


Here’s a broader look at more recent non-scorers.

Spoiler: Forwards since 03-04 w/ 0 PO G min 14GP

(Underlined TOI means the number is incomplete because they only have the stat start starting in 1998-99)
And who they played for

 

[Bruin]

Still complaining about the officiating. Even after getting a friendly whistle and review last night. Never change.

A friendly whistle and review? Are you actually saying that was goal tender interference by Heinen?

And if anyone got a friendly whistle, that whistle in the Panthers d zone when the puck hit Bob was the epitome of a friendly whistle, especially when the Bruins were controlling the puck at the time. Why did they blow the whistle, I never heard the reason why.

it might look way worse when you add in ice time cause zacha is probably playing more than some of those guys combined

Never mind that how about playing with #88 the entire time and Krejci last year also.

I had us in 6 so we will see. Putrid effort last night I’m still annoyed.

Kind of surprised to see Val Bure's name up there tbh

 

[Over the volcano]

Never mind that how about playing with #88 the entire time and Krejci last year also.

He needs to step up this year but he had 3 pts in the first two games of the series before they shifted him to wing and then to centering the 3rd line.

He finished with 6pts in 7 games last year.

The lack of goals stand out but overall he's roughly 1/2 ppg in the playoffs and regular season for his career.

 

[Ratsreign]

Coulda, woulda, should ha is a losers lament.........

Sincerely,

Gronk

So is constant whining about officiating.


Additionally, heed your own maxim, mr big tuff Gronkman,
You’ve been coulda, woulda, shoulda-ing about the refs calls for every Boston loss.

 

[Score8]

it was really strange. I thought maybe his mask was about ready to come off or something, as that seems to happen a ton these days. Then I thought maybe he took a puck to the throat?

You can understand some frustration when it turns out there is literally nothing wrong and play just stopped for no reason like that. One of the more random stoppages I've ever seen.


It's not a game 7, so maybe that helps? No way to tell. They have been dogshit at home this post season

Yet Tukka losing a skate blade and getting scored on is not worthy of blowing the play dead. Strange threshold the nhl officials set.

Only difference is he doesn’t think Tuuka might be injured. That’s the threshold.

 

[Gilmour1996]

The bruins hurt players with illegal plays that don’t get called all the time, with cheap shots

Just look at this one on Matthews that took him out of the lineup in round 1

Also, Timothy Liljegren wishes Bruins a lot of (bad) luck for the non-call on Marchand during regular season. Seconded by Matthew Knies. Instead of endorsing bobblehead figurines, Marchand might make more money endorsing voodoo dolls.

Of course it was a non call as there was nothing to call.

Was his confusion based on bobs prone position on the ice writhing in pain, or him standing straight up with the puck on the ice 3ft in front of him with Bruin charging towards him?

I’m talking about the one that him up high and he dropped to his knees falling forward and now way out of his crease, right before a defender blocked the next shot at the open net.

 

[danpantz]

Looked like Bob tried trapping it with his shoulder against his upper body as he was coming out hard to face the shot.

I don't think he even knew it bounced off him and the way he was shrugging his shoulders and flying out of the crease made it look like he may have been hurt.

If they had held the whistle for two seconds they would have known he was fine but oh well.

He kinda almost lunged upwards, too, it looked like. I think that’s why he tumbled forward like that. It was so awkward looking that the ref thought he was hurt

 

[jgatie]

Oh lookie lookie at the Leafs fans in here, trying desperately to remain relevant after their anual bow out.

 

[mobilus]

Of course it was a non call as there was nothing to call.

And there it is. If there’s no call, it wasn’t a penalty. You've just cleared Bennett of any wrongdoing.

 

[wintersej]

While Games 3 and 4 build on each other with crazy ref stuff leading to an inferno of rage...

I feel like after a regularly reffed game where things went both ways we can cool down on the ref talk until at least 5 minutes into the game on Friday, right?

Displayed no overt reaction to suggest an injury. This was daddy Campbell influence in full effect

Yeah, the more I see the play the more it seems like Bob feels that he's got the puck trapped in his upper body and doesn't wanna lose it. He probably feels he's got a very loose handle on the puck, and goes down soft so it stays trapped in his equipment

He just goes down so soft in this case (not feigning injury or anything though, just trying to keep a puck) that it looks super awkward, and the refs make a judgment call.

I think we solved the mystery, gang. Nice work

 

[Beezeral]

The earth won't explode if you acknoledge the Bruins catch a break on something.
