They just allowed nothing, which is unusual, but it was the first time they looked dangerous in offence. It’s remarkable how much - in just a year - Tocchet has transformed the way they play. Weren't we Poo Pooing tocchet around here before they hired Krueger or Housley? I may be misremembering Quote

That Aud Smell Posted May 17 Report Posted May 17 Anyone have a screenshot of that crying Canes fan? The little kid? Anyone know if some of his tears were caught and bottled? There'd be a market for those. Quote

He went out and got it done. That's being accountable, first to yourself, then to your teammates. Something this team needs to learn. 2 hours ago, Wyldnwoody44 said: Weren't we Poo Pooing tocchet around here before they hired Krueger or Housley? I may be misremembering I'll give him some credit for Vancouver right now. He needs to sustain it a bit before I go all in. At the time Tocchet hadn't proven much of anything as a coach. 2008-2010 (Tampa) - 53-69-26 overall, no playoffs 2017-2021 (Arizona) - 125-131-26 overall, 1 playoff appearance during COVID when they finished 5th in the Pacific. This year the team is killing it, no doubt. 1 1 Quote

SabresBillsFan Posted May 17 Report Posted May 17 ***** the Rangers, that loss by the Canes is going to sting this whole offseason for them. They had game 6 and blew it and a couple of those games in New York they had a chance to get the win. Sorry folks, never been a Rangers fan ever. Quote

I may be misremembering Some people did. Some people were really anti Tochet, almost like the anti Torts crowd. I wonder if the Flyers (who tend to be a little incestuous) wish they'd hired him. Coaching makes a huge difference (look how Cassidy somehow got Eichel to play 2 way hockey!) but Vancouver also made huge roster additions. Their big Swedish star has actually been pretty crap in the playoffs. Hopefully KA realizes this and isn't just going to think hiring Ruff was enough. 1 Quote

Their big Swedish star has actually been pretty crap in the playoffs. Hopefully KA realizes this and isn't just going to think hiring Ruff was enough. Thorny has proven Eichel was better defensively here than the general perception but I’d certainly say he wasn’t anywhere near as consistent and focused on his two way game until Cassidy took over the Knights. It’s always fascinating how there is little in way to predict which players will be “playoff players” and which won’t. Size and skill seem almost meaningless in the odds. A larger player can be a great regular season player but fold in the playoffs like a paper airplane while a small speedster could suddenly elevate himself to a playoff star. 2 Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted May 17 Report Posted May 17 Big praise for Forsling, very un-Physical d-man who is the best d-man on the team. Broadcast just said the shots on goal are 50-15 5x5 for Panthers when he is on the ice. 1 Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted May 18 Report Posted May 18 This would be a total BS call if they say that's a penalty Quote

stinky finger Posted May 18 Report Posted May 18 Panthers vs Rangers should be a good series. I probably root for Panthers. However, Shesterkin outplays Bobrovsky. Rangers in 6 1 Quote
... Posted May 18 Author Report Posted May 18 Second Avs game in a row I noticed super short shifts for Mitts line. And tonight his line was pretty soft. Quote
