My dude, this team can do no wrong! When will you learn? It doesn't matter how lazy they play. It's all part of the plan. They're just gonna undo 3 months of down trending play the second they step on the ice in the playoffs... Because reasons.
The players seem to think that's going to happen, based on what they're saying. And I've actually seen their playoff gear. More than once. So, until the playoffs actually start, and your hypotheses about this team gain some actual traction, I'm going to give the players the benefit of the doubt. Sorry.
Lol. If Yanni has an official playoff mode beyond whatever mode he's been in all year, he'll punch a hole in the fabric of the space-time continuum. Or however that works.Here's hoping Hedmonster does make his usual playoff appearance. lol At least we have a good bit of deep run playoff experience throughout much of our roster. And I don't think Yanni has a non-playoff mode. Think he's been rocking PO beast mode all season.
I'm not going to belittle you for having a different opinion than I am like a few of the posters here. So that's fine. I don't know what you're trying to insinuate by saying "I've actually seen their playoff gear" because so have I. I've been watching this team since before 2004 and continue to do so from several hundred miles away after moving out of Florida.
Here's my thing. What about this team's recent playoff runs concerns you? Winning a Cup takes a few lucky bounces, and we simply didn't get 'em. The playoff negativity before there's even anything playoff-related to be negative about just doesn't make sense. It's basically a new season that hasn't even started yet.
2 - 1 Panthers!!
Your main board attitude and Lightning board attitude are polar opposites.
