Post-Game Talk: STANLEY CUP FINAL Tampa Bay is THE WINNER.

[SirClintonPortis]

Stamkos will get conn smythe.

His g/60 in the playoffs is f***ing insane.

Gamers would consider him a "glass cannon". Big damage potential, but fragile as hell.....

2 games in two nights, gonna be brutal for both teams. Probably split them.

 

[Rapala]

Anyway!
I am high, watching the game and how can anybody possibility think we have a chance to win the cup the next few years.

But they do as early as next season.

 

[SirClintonPortis]

But they do as early as next season.

Of course. We'll have someone dead reliable for cheap in Edmundson and Allen is a elite backup who can log 35 games.

 

[Rapala]

I agree. I also think that another reason TB lost against CBJ were injuries as much as and even more than size. Hedman had a concussion before the playoffs and it was still bothering him and I believe he left in game 2 and never came back. Strålman was also injured and Vasilevsky was not in form,.

Talent trumps all but people should not forget Tampa themselves felt they needed more size. grit, and toughness. Maroon in the off season and then people were laughing when they picked up Goodrow. He's been a pain in Dallas' D's ass all series long.

Dallas needs both.

Nice anthem Sarah

Well a rested Price is Important but we can't be sure for what.

Klingberg scores with 4 Tampa players around him.

 

[Redux91]

Tyler Seguin has 2 goals in 23 games in these playoffs.
2.
That's simply just not going to cut it hotshot..

Even Suzuki and KK got 4 a PIECE this year like wow

 

[Fixxer]

I like what I'm seeing so far. I gotta admit Tampa had the edge though. Kucherov made his way to the net despite a few players on his way. Nice shot but Khudobin was ready. still 1-0 Dallas. I didn't see the goal, I just tuned in for the first time of this final series.

 

[SirClintonPortis]

Ah, another blocked shot turned goal by Dallas. Gotta have hands for that.

 

[Rapala]

Seguin/Perry combo is just begging for trouble.

 

[Redux91]

Dallas have 3 shots after 1 lol..

And Lead 2-1 ..wow

 

[Fixxer]

Pavelski

 

[Fixxer]

Brayden Point!!! 2-1 Dallas - Late 1st period

 

[peate]

Good period.

 

[Fixxer]

Pavelski 11th goal makes him the 2nd 36+ player to score as many (after Rocket Richard), per TVA Sports.

 

[Redux91]

Crazy passes on those last 2 goals

Pavelski had tied Braden Point for the playoff lead with 11

Point just scored his 12th to get back on top

 

[Pickles]

2 goals on 3 shots oof. Good game though.

 

[WeThreeKings]

Remember when we traded up for size on the back end and took Lernout from the WHL instead of Brayden Point?

 

[Redux91]

Cant believe its 2-2 so god damn fast lol

 

[Redux91]

Remember when we traded up for size on the back end and took Lernout from the WHL instead of Brayden Point?

Well yeah..it sucks.. but to be fair 79th overall means 30 teams made 2 to 3 mistakes on him, unfortunately the habs were 1 of the 30 teams heh.

 

[peate]

Good game, Dallas wants this.
