Yep its an age old plan for road playoff games. Weather the early storm everyone knows is coming - don't get caught out of position play simple safe sound structured straightforward Scott Stevens Seminesque hock to start the game. Ran out of S's clearly.
Panthers have done the rat thing since 1996. Every series was a loss but they still did it.I wish everyone understood this. Maybe just maybe he's not looking for the replacement with the best offensive play driving ability, maybe he's looking for the most defensively sound forward from among 5 different rookies to choose from? Maybe he's considering who is built to withstand what he expects to be an immense physical response from FLA?
At some point, the coach isn't idiot just because he doesn't play our favorite players.
Pretty sure both of them were not alive when the Panther's adopted the rat thing throwing them on the ice. What was that, 96?
Interesting fun fact, 96 was year two of four consecutive Stanley Cup finals sweeps, the last one being 98 when the Caps lost to the Wings 4-0. What a boring era of Cup finals. Four sweeps in a row.
Remember Holtby on tilt after the Leafs were scoring goals on unexpected high tip plays? Tending is f***ing tough mentally physically defections screens they have to be the best PKer.. the whole 9 yards. Every other player rests 2/3rd of the game and they only get to sip water during whistles and pray they don't let in a softie. At least they don't get run aka Dale Hunted anymore.

I think Forsling made the two best saves of the game. Those two should s go in, it’s a laugher.
I don’t think it’s some ominous statement; no reason to infer it’s anything more than what it is: he is simply day to day and he doesn’t know when he’ll be back. NMU!
Preparing myself for the worst. A true day to day it seems standard playoff protocol to at least leave Florida hanging until warmups.
Rather than weather the storm, I hope we take them to the woodshed early.

Does CMC have dirt on one of the coaches? He is by far one of the most promising young forwards
Protas is like 6'6" or 6'7" Really liked his play this year. Seems hungry and not overly stupid. Just lacks experience.
