Oettinger has surprisingly been the anti-Bobrovskiy in these playoffs. It’s not deeply so (prior to tonight, that is), but his GSAE has been negative for a while.And now a goaltending change after the stars fall behind by 3.
He had his hearing this morning. They usually announce the suspensions around 5/6pm after the hearing, so I'm guessing word will be out soon.How has Jamie Benn not been suspended yet?
If his defense in the hearing was the same as in the press I think he's making it pretty easy for the NHL. Though, the department of player safety is a strange animal.He had his hearing this morning. They usually announce the suspensions around 5/6pm after the hearing, so I'm guessing word will be out soon.
It’s still pretty fucking awesome. Good for them.This is why it’s so frustrating being a hockey fan. And also why it’s so crazily fun. I mean… this Florida team sure looks like a “team of destiny”. Tkachuk is playing like the best player in the world. The Bruins don’t appear to be the only team unable to stop him.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Bruins should have won that first round series, the Panthers would be a really fun story for me to root for.
I'm not sure I've ever seen a run like this. Take out teams 1 (league record setter), 2 and 4 in the east (and overall in the league) with team 1 in the west (and tied 4 overall) coming up.It’s still pretty fucking awesome. Good for them.
2012 Kings were pretty similar, got in as the eighth seed and then went on a nutso run to a Cup.I can’t recall anything like this Panther’s team.
oh, and eff them too.
On the plus side of variance with a hot keeper, but you know what? They outwork you. Hockey more than the other three sports is one where you can overcome a lot by just getting in the fucking corners and digging and grinding.I can’t recall anything like this Panther’s team.
That clinched a playoff spot for Florida. They could have clinched a spot by winning Game 82 if they needed it.Game 81 Pens piss away a home game to the Chicago Tank Hawks. If they win that none of this happens.
Didn't they score most of those goals on the Panthers other goalie? Florida got hot after making the GASP goalie change!!!Bs scored 17 goals on Bob in 4+ games. Since then he's given up 16 goals in 9 games, including however many overtimes, and is 8-1. Ridiculous
Yeah, if the Panthers had needed a point in that last game I don’t know if I bet against them given what we have seen.That clinched a playoff spot for Florida. They could have clinched a spot by winning Game 82 if they needed it.
Lyon gave up 9 in 2+ games before getting benched. Florida itself got hot, but Bob really wasn't that good in the seriesDidn't they score most of those goals on the Panthers other goalie? Florida got hot after making the GASP goalie change!!!
