Post-Game Talk: Win 9 straight...lose 9 straight? Panthers wake up too late, fall to Wild.

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

I think it's time to end the losing streak, Minnesota is pretty bad, injured and on the 2nd of a b2b. Tampa, Detroit, and Toronto all won their last games, and while Florida has a lot of breathing room, 3 straight losses is enough. A Friday game against Minnesota with no Barkov, thread might be under 100 posts.

Bob looks to be confirmed in net.

I think we'll see another point for Lundell and shut down D.

He's a core piece and will continue to be one. Hopefully we lock him to a long-term deal. Once Bennett leaves at the end of his contract, Lundy is going to explode on the score sheet next to Chucky and Swaggy

I think you are bang on with the shutdown D.
On Maurice's post-game presser, he noted that the defense was almost where he liked. So I expect even better tonight.

Add the fact that they are playing Minnesota.
And it's the last game before the All Star break and players wanna hurry up and get this game over with.
Lets also throw in the fact that Minnesota is not a good team and well out of the playoff picture in the West.

I would think the writing is on the wall for a big under tonight.
(Line is 6)

My Barber has tickets to the All Star game and he is going away. I thought it was this weekend. Turns out he's going to Mexico.

Can't tell if you serious or joking...

Must be more court proceedings for custody of his kid

Or he was prowling the game for a new place to plant a seed

Nothing really to spotlight I don't think. They just need to play a solid game, and take care of business.

 

[Gentle Man]

Oh man. It's Star Wars night. I always feel like we lose this game lol

Aaron is ready to dumbinate.

Absolutely serious. Good talent, not a line driver yet, but this is his D+4 season

I think he takes an offensive developmental path like Tippett. Explodes in D+5 or D+6 season

Can't wait to see what kind of absolutely braindead moronic penalty Aaron Ekblad can take with 30 seconds left in a tie game this time.

And Mo seems to be very happy with Lundell’s responsible and reliable defensive play, and there is a lot to be said for that so early in his career. He may not be putting up many points, but he still contributes to the team winning. The offensive skills are still there. He’ll start burying some more of his chances. I’m not worried about Lundell, at all.

Debrincat (?) was slick and drew that call by locking down on Ek’s stick and then turning away. Ek has to know by now that you can’t put your stick in there like that, refs will call it (almost) every time, even when the offensive player does the arm lock over the defender’s stick.
