April 28, 20241 yr the difference in this series is their guys bury their chances and we look like a junior team around the net.

Gives up 2 pathetic shots while Thompson is a fucking brick wall The first shot was basically unsaveable and he was screened by his own defender. The second shot he probably shouldve had, but that was still a hell of a shot.
April 28, 20241 yr Vegas must have been fucking around during the regular season because they are not playing like an 8 seed.Combination of getting some guys like Stone and Pietrangelo back for playoffs and being able to flip the switch for the Cup defense. I didn’t think Thompson was this good.

They are the defending champs. Houston was a tough out in 95 also. 1 minute ago, C-Man said: Combination of getting some guys like Stone and Pietrangelo back for playoffs and being able to flip the switch for the Cup defense. I didn’t think Thompson was this good. Dude has been a goal stopping machine all year when he is "on". And he is most certainly "on" this series.

If any of the players could elevate the fucking puck on a breakaway, this game would've been over halfway through the second period and all goalie discussion would be moot.
April 28, 20241 yr This game is fucking maddening. Thompson just dominating us. And we absolutely refuse to elevate the puck. JFC.

April 28, 20241 yr I still can't believe Roope didn't finish which led to the shorty. He's probably 90% in that situation and on a cold streak we haven't seen from him. I was convinced he had been injured but certainly not there. Just unbelievable. We would have a 3 or 4 goal lead if Thompson wasn't playing great OR we just fucking finish like we have all damn season. But fuck it. A 1 goal win is the same as a 6 goal win. Get composed, play your game, and just fucking win.
April 28, 20241 yr Let's talk about why Seguin cant elevate a puck, why Pavs is playing like a plank of wood, and where the actual fuck is Roope?

April 28, 20241 yr Let's talk about why Seguin cant elevate a puck, why Pavs is playing like a plank of wood, and where the actual fuck is Roope?Seguin is a shell of his former self. Pavs is just old. Roope is on a six or seven-game scoring drought. That cannot happen. Otter just can’t make the saves you need in the playoffs. This is two postseasons in a row that this has been the case. Disturbing trend.
April 28, 20241 yr is Robertson injured?Don’t think so.Razor was saying we are basically playing 5 defensemen. Lundquisr has like 2 min TOI. Did he get hurt or are we double shifting Miro?
April 28, 20241 yr Vegas is playing this last minute as if its a power play. Dallas fortunate to be in OT
April 28, 20241 yr Vegas is playing this last minute as if its a power play. Dallas fortunate to be in OTFeel like we are just hanging on for dear life at this point.

It was kind of a joke in that he disappeared for the last 2 periods. I think deboer must not trust lundqvist.

April 28, 20241 yr I have zero faith that we are going to beat Thompson before they find a way to put one past Otter. The guys we need to score — Roope, Duchene, Pavs, etc — just haven’t been able to get it done this series.
April 28, 20241 yr how about a nice 6-1 ass kicking next game boys...Shoulda had that tonight. I’ll take it Monday.Still can’t believe that shot.
