Nice thread!

Quick notes for tonights game:

Sam Gagner moved to wing, Justin Hodgman called up and in for injured Martin Hanzal. Dave Bolland still day-to-day.

Good job on the thread batting1k.

I'm just hoping the stupid penalties are at a minimum tonight. I'm tired of expecting it and then it happens.

I am as guilty as the next guy when it comes to blaming the refs, but we have been taking really lazy penalties. The bad calls are going both ways. I do wish the refs would stop trying to be a factor and let the guys play. Enough with even up calls.

Please win

Least intimidating offense ON PAPER we've seen all season. Smith has been off. OEL he's a dangerous man.

3-1 Cats.

Justin Hodgman lol, I remember when that guy played for Pelicans a few years back. Unless I completely mistake him for someone else, he did some ridiculous dives in the series against Karpat during their run to the finals.

Great work on the short notice GDT batting 1k.

Looking forward to a strong game from the Panthers as they build on the confidence from the last few games.

I agree with others that the dumb penalties need to stop. Got to keep the emotions in check and play smart physical hockey.

2-1 Panthers.

 

[Beezeral]

Such a long break

 

[batting1k]

Yep, we don't play again till Thursday after tonight.

 

[GrumpyKelly]

Gameday finally! WOooooooooooooooooooo

 

[RCDeltaFixer]

Great looking thread. I'm still unsure of how this game will turn out. The deciding factor will be penalties. If they can stay out of the box, I think this can be a very easy win. 3-1 Panthers victory is my prediction. If they take stupid penalties then it could end up being 3-1 in favor of the Yotes.

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Smith has been struggling and the Yotes overall have been very hit or miss. Need to take advantage and hammer out a win.

You're a Karpat supporter?

Killer B's will stay hot. I think Barkov is lookin at a multi-point night hopefully.

Let's go Panthers!

Wish Hayes would get in the lineup, he played last season.
