I've gotten up on my soapbox about this before, but at that point, there is literally zero downside to just doing illegal shit to prevent the opposition from scoring. Just f***ing wrap them up.

Exactly, send out 10 guys to defend. You can only go so many too many men penalties and if you don't touch the puck, no whistle.

Slash to break sticks, hook to take people down, etc.

If you were describe a game between two bubble teams, this is what it would look like

Other than the new 3M line, the lines and pairings don't look comfortable

This team finds new ways to disappoint every week. Just no killer instinct whatsoever

That one there actually is a rule about. Intentional too-many-men in the final minute is a penalty shot.

CP blaming Rittich...

Wtf? I mean 40 shots is 40 shots...

Gio just loses the puck in his skates and that pair does a terrible job boxing out.

It didn't help that Rittich was swimming like Mike Smith on that goal

First thing I thought. Wtf was he doing, just throw your f***ing body to the other side of the net, stop f***ing swimming.


And yes, f***ING tackle those mf’s in front of the net. There’s literally zero reason not to do it with less than a second left.

Brutal 3 pt swing there. Our lack of ROW wins may bite us in the end as well. This one's an all-timer though.
