GDT: Non-Panthers NHL playoffs talk

[Boothinator]

Hurricanes looked so good defensively. Great to watch.
And the Rangers? Well they didn't get much going offensively

I was surprised how many penalty got called

 

[SoupyFIN]

Smith is starting over Koskinen for Oilers, is Tippett really banking on a one hit playoff wonder from 8 years ago?

 

[Prominence Problem]

1 shot each more than 10 minutes in...? it's weird, the intensity is there, but the level of play is...not

Carolina dominated that period and had at least two posts on top of the 12 shots. It was more about Rangers not being very good.

Rangers have disappointed me so far, they're more interested in throwing hits than actually playing. Canes have kept Panarin and Zibanejad in the dark most of the game.

Trocheck did a good job on that final face off. He looked decent today.

I missed the Third.
I see the Hurricanes out shot the Rangers 37-26. Hurricanes won every category except blocks and hits.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Hawks started really well and then they take a mind blowingly stupid too many men penalty. 6th player just randomly decided to jump over the boards when the other players were almost all in the offensive zone.

I don’t get this either. Smith is terrible.

Lmao that goal.

Lmao that goal.

God he’s so bad. Wants always touch the puck. You can touch it when you make a save Smith LOL

Koskinen was the better goalie during the season. I dont understand this move

I think Tippett has loved smith since his Arizona days? I could be wrong but yeah pretty mind numbing.

 

[Boothinator]

Loooooooilers

 

[FinlandPanther]

Mcdavid with a. Horrid pass in the corner and it’s 4-1

If that's the reason Smith is starting, yikes. He replaced Roloson 3 times during TB's 2011 run (game is usually over when the starter gets pulled, so idk if I'd give that any worth), then there's that 2012 Yotes run (main reason why his SVS% and GAA is so good) and meh last season with Calgary. You could've put any goalie on that Yotes conference final team and that goalie would've looked good, they were great defensively that year and the two years before that with Bryz.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Although the last three goals have hardly been Smith's fault.

Agreed. I love to rag on him and he sucks but those are not on him at all.

 

[PBPantherfan]

Sucks I can’t watch the Hawks and Oilers while I’m waiting for cats to start because of hurricane coverage.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Kubalik 2+3 after two periods.

2020 strikes again.... Habs down 2-0

Way more competitive than our bunch of losers

They're looking good out there (the habs).

My guess is that Pittsburgh is gonna win this serie anyways, but Montreal will give them a run for their money.

In term of competitiveness, they are on a different level than us, that's for sure.

I don't like to watch games around the league. Makes me realize even more how bad and sad we are as a team. Sometimes it feels like we just don't belong in the same league...

 

[Boothinator]

Schweifele can't put weight on his leg. Doesn't look good

 

[FinlandPanther]

Wish we could’ve got Drouin over Barkov lmao. Holy hell that was a terrible whiff.

 

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Lmao Habs win, showed more passion that this team ever did

Can't believe they beat Pittsburgh and we barely got one goal past the Isles

I'm currently watching the Montreal - Pittsburgh game. If Bob let a goal in like Murray allowed for Montreal's second, Bob would be eaten alive on these boards. Not good.

He is probably eaten alive on the Pens board as well. They weren't very high on Murray this season

Just tuning in to the start of Predators vs. Coyotes now.
