Im more amazed how Canes boasts as one of the best defensive team and Barkov had so much space and time for that show of a shot Same on the gwg goal. Raanta played great, he almost had that 3-on-1 ppg by tkachuk. Nothing more you can ask from him That GWG you see Burns tripped over his own guys stick and couldn't get to tchuck

Took out 2 Hurricanes with 1 stick I'm buying some hockey sticks to stop any Hurricane that may come thru Florida

Wouldn't that be something if Raanta got his name on the Cup again, 13 years after his last time?

Everyone taking a nap before OT? Too much going on in that first period to nap. No scoring but good physical playoff hockey!

edit: if this was it, hard to tell how he could've got hurt.

they mentioned on the SN broadcast that the panthers haven't scored a 5 on 3 this year regular season/playoffs combined.
had to check because i thought i must have misheard but it's true.
3 other teams (blues flames canucks) also managed not to score a 5 on 3 goal this season.

When Forsling was with the Hawks, I said he reminded me of Hjalmarsson. They've now said it several times on the TNT broadcast, in particular Olczyk

So the conference final OT streak is over at 4, but now 5 consecutive games where no team has had a lead more then 1.

kind of amazing that it's just the first shutout pitched by bobrovsky in his 58th playoff start.
2 different things here, but in his regular season career he averages a shutout roughly every 16-17 starts.

Yep, I guess I'm eating crow right now, after saying this in the Florida Panthers thread:
Zito proving quickly to be a poor GM. He has 1 goalie making $10 million, which he inherited. But then he signs Knight to a huge contract as well. Maybe his hope was he'd be able to trade Bobrovsky, but who's going to want him the way he's played this year? He lost a ton of character players like Acciari, Marchment, Weegar, and Huberdeau and brought in much less impactful players like the Stall Brothers, Cousins. They've played 5 or 6 games with 19 dressed due to their cap issues (Yandle contract killing them) and constant injuries to Barkov, Ekblad, Lundell doesn't allow for any sort of continuity. And Maurice doesn't seem to be working out. He's trying to get a team built on offense to play a defensive minded game and it's not working. And with Duclair getting close to returning, Zito is going to have to find the cap space, and Maurice is going to need to figure out lines that will be effective. I will not be shocked if the Panthers miss the playoffs.
