Series Discussion SCF | ★★★ STARS ★★★ vs. lame sky flashes | TBL leads 3-2

[WhoahNow]

Man I really don't like this quote from Shapiro's last game review:

20. What can the Stars do to get more from their top line in the next game?
“It’s a good question,” Bowness said. “Giving them the ice time, we’re getting them out there as much as we can and they’ve got to figure it out. Simple as that. They’re our top-end guys. You’ve got to give them the ice time to get it going. They’re getting that. They’ve got to figure it out. They need some help from other guys, but they’ve got to figure it out.”

Benn - Hintz - Radulov -> Roope adds speed that Seguin can't.
Kiviranta - Pavelski - Perry -> Kiviranta as a rover, fling shit on net for Perry/Pavelski to clean up.
Janmark - Seguin - Gurianov -> Two shot options for TB to try and contain.
Cogliano - Dickinson - Caamano/Comeau -> Shutdown line.

Why do you say likely? I think it’s very unlikely unless you have a source saying otherwise.

Definitely not a source. Just weighing up the logic of the back2back impact. I dont think Khudobin is playing well enough to play both 4 and 5 back2back.

If Dallas lose Game 4 they wouldnt want to go into an elimination game with a cold Bishop and its too much to throw Oettinger in to that situation for his 1st start.

This would lead to Khudobin being the Game 5 starter. So i think Game 4 is the game Bishop comes in.

Having said that someone above quoted shapiro saying hes still unfit to play so who knows.

I guess its also possible with Dobby having the 3rd period off and slightly rested they will throw everything at Game 4.

 

[catters078]

Is Faksa done for the series?

Not many if any updates so im guessing if he isnt going to play tomorrow he wont play game 5 either.

Was he even on the ice today?

These lines are good. But with Seguin don’t know about 2 options to shoot.

They should try Seguin in front of the net on the PP. See if he can get a dirty goal somehow. That's how most of the Stars goals are scored anyways, especially on the PP

Or put him in the slot

 

[Sports2]

Interested to see if Oetter gets a start. One game at a time boys- if you told us we’d be down 2-1 in the series before it started we’d take it. Let’s go even it up.

Doesn't matter if he can't shoot- the Bolts will still respect him like a shooting threat. Would open up some ice for Guryanov.

 

[catters078]

Need a big first period.

Ideally a lead, but if not at least tied.

Can not be down and trailing again. Need some doubt in them to start, the physical toll on them will start if we can stop mometnum

 

[LT]

Whoever gets the first goal wins each of the next two games. Let’s that team fully establish their style of play and dictate the game.

I don’t know if anyone is worried about Seguin doing anything now. He just does not look right at all.

 

[FirstRowUpperDeck]

I think Dobby has been consistent. Higher GAA against high power teams makes sense.

Go Stars.

Haha. Yeah right

 

[Sports2]

It's not an Apples to Apples comparison
Tampa>>> Colorado

i mean the stars not capitalizing on their chances and our fans complaining about penalties

 

[DieselPig]

So you’re telling me there’s a chance?

 

[catters078]

All we have to do tomorrow is win 1 game. Thats it. Not think about anything else.

Skate with everything we have.

Im still hurting from today, but going to be cheering like crazy till otherwise.

Im proud of this team, they are guving their all. They deserve a Game 6 at least.

Come on Stars win one back!

Benn, Seguin, Radulov and Gurianov all goalless in SCF. Please all of you score.

 

[Dynamite Time]

Question for everyone... did you see this Stars team here? A 90% majority didn't. Enjoy it, we’re here. Enjoy it!

to be honest, if not for the pause, they were trending towards not making the PO altogether

 

[Kcb12345]

Seguin with 5 points in his last 2 games btw

 

[LT]

Optimistic me:

Seguin gets a hatty next game and carries us to a game 7.

Benn finally decides to wake the f*** up, takes over game 7 like we all know he can, and drags us to a Cup.

Realist/Pessimist: we lose on Monday by 2+ goals.
