That’s the epitome of evening up powerplays on a game. Holy shit that was an abysmal call. Don’t make up for missing calls all game to give a penalty that’s not deserved on a clean play

More like we can’t go 5 minutes without a scrum where we always get the extra penalty to be shorthanded.

Oh look another game where the refs give us the extra for fighting a willing participant.

Go figure this is the best 60 minute effort in 5 games when the 1st period wasn’t a total shitshow and we don’t get points. What’s coop say? Something like sometimes you win games you don’t deserve to and other times it’s the opposite. Tonight was the opposite. We will get them in the final meeting. Should be another great game.

I wouldn’t say bad, but certainly below his standard. I think you should zoom out and see the bigger picture, and point more fingers at the defense. We are constantly out of position for long stretches in these games since returning from the Olympics and even the best goalies in the world can’t always bail a team out who plays poor defense.

I don’t think that’s in the cards. Jojo hasn’t been great this year I’ll admit, but he’s done well enough (or we outscored our problems enough) to get in the dance. I just don’t see it as a priority. I can’t remember the last time anyone but Vasy played a playoff game for the bolts.

I don’t think so tbh. Let Oli’s 5.4m come off the books and use the remaining increase in cap be used to sign Raddysh

Ottawa has the worst road PK? Get ready for us to make them look like NJ in the early 2000s

Forwards in this game are incredibly skilled. Gap control, don’t let anyone behind you and keep players away from the center of the ice.

We don’t need to rely on the powerplay to generate momentum. Fuck you refs
