Gotta win tonight and show some killer instinct.

Of course wrapping things up early and avoiding the travel back to Nashville is paramount, but longer term, and almost equally important is the team showing they can finish the job when an opportunity is there for the taking.

We're fortunate to be in a spot where we can wrap this up in 5, so just do it! LF f***ING GO!

Come out flying and shooting and play a strong game!
The Hockey Gods smiled on us last game and now it’s time to seal the deal. Or sacrifice a virgin or something.

Anybody know even remotely what it is that's ailing him. I myself am deeply suspicious that he's not hurt at all...

I dunno, he had a pretty darn good game before the injury. I fully expect Tocchet to say Silvos is playing because DeSmith isn't 100%, but no clue what's ailing him.

Hope the offense comes to life tonight - they took over the game late in Game 4 and started just getting the puck to the net. Do that from the outset. Stop dumping it to corners or looking for tic-tac-toe plays, just get it on net and get traffic there. Give your goalie some offensive support.

And Godspeed, Arty!

Why on earth would the team healthy scratch DeSmith right after he was terrific to win game 3 of the series?

He appears to have a minor hand/finger injury.
Because they think Silovs gives them a better chance to go somewhere in these playoffs plus he's on a winning streak. Who swaps a rookie goalie who just won a big game in fine style with a veteran backup who's just back from an injury and has already posted an .800 game in this series? Not to mention Silovs is our goalie of the future while DeSmith will probably be playing elsewhere in 6 months...

first couple passes need to be better to break the press. It's not good enough to just chip and chase. Need to start springing the weak side winger
