Non-Penguins NHL Games 2023-24

[King Colby]

I'd make a comment about how they were buoyed by an unsustainable shooting percentage during the reg, but in order for that to even come into play in the playoffs, you kinda need to shoot the puck.

Boston played the same number of games and had 63 more shots on goal. The only other team below the Canucks in total shots were the Rangers, who are 9 behind with 3 fewer games played.

Not a recipe for success.

They won 7 playoff games. That's pretty successful imo

[King Colby]

Without their top end goalie, mind you

[MR25]

What about shot attempts? Is that the same story?

4th, but Boston and Edmonton are less than 10 behind, and they're nearly 80 behind the Avs in 3rd.

The bigger issue IMO, especially in the EDM series, is the -35 differential (which is also counting the +18 they had vs NSH).

They were talked up all year, faded toward the end, then barely squeaked by the Preds. Yeah, they won that series in 6, but they only won one of those games by more than a goal (G1, and the extra was an empty net).

For a team that was an offensive juggernaut for the first 1/2 of the season, they seemed to forget how to offense in the playoffs.

Do not want to have to choose between Canada or New York City so Florida and/or Dallas have to do work.

[Orlando Penguin]

Sure, why wouldn't it be a 8:18 puck drop?

Soft.

Forsling stops the go-to Panarin move at one end and leads the rush to get a primary on the Tkachuk opening salvo...always liked that player.

I noticed Vlad Tarasenko is listed on Florida's first line... I had no idea he was even playing these playoffs. Is he even doing anything?

i think he's was better in the first series moreso than v. bruins

Meh...here and there, but he looks pretty old...

[Orlando Penguin]

Geez, get out of the damn crease.

[crusherstasiak]

yeah i'm going with no goal

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

I don’t really get that. If Lomberg made contact with Shesterkin by himself I’d get it but him entering the crease shouldn’t matter if Lindgren pushed him into Shesterkin

[mikey]

Lomberg made contact first.

[mikey]

Crotch still can't catch passes...I still hope he has a 55 goal series.

[mikey]

I can't believe none of that went in...

[Orlando Penguin]

Could see that too many men coming a mile away. Why the hell are you jumping off the bench with the puck right there?

[mikey]

No they didn't Ray...that's absolutely the wrong call. If that's too many men, every game would be a PP fest after 45 seconds of each period...

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

I’m watching the Spanish feed. I’m guessing he said it was the right call?


It seemed uncertain. Teams obviously get some grace but the puck seemed so far away from the bench that I was surprised it was called

[mikey]

It was an obvious call. Surprised it was even called a goal on the ice...

[mikey]

What a finish by Laffy...

[mikey]

Kiss the ****, NY...

[King Colby]

Excellent. Go cats
