Tampa was going for #10, either way there's a bag skate in order.

WTF happened!
Got on my flight to work, 56 minute trip.
It was 1-1 in the second!

Goal line stand last minute.
Lost by a TD.

It’s a good reality check for them, gotta aspire to be as good as the better teams. Reset and be better against Florida.

It was a let down but one where it fell apart in 5 minutes. Horrible yes but you can park that. Can happen to any team by any team in today's NHL.

Last thing they need to start thinking is they aren't good enough. That's a losing mentality.

Please tell me Petey and any of the other top players didnt get hurt during this epic stand.

All joking aside, it's probably a good thing for a young team like VAN to get brought back to earth. A little humble pie never hurt anyone. Learn and move on.

No, Petey and Hughsey are at the bouncy castles.

They didn’t play much worse than they have at several points during their winning streak, but Markstrom didn’t bail them out this time. Hopefully they can regroup and clean up their game 5 on 5.

Could also be a 7 game losing streak. We'll see how they respond I guess.

Indeed the measuring stick

Probably not, but there will be a shortage of Aloe Cream and some problems sitting for the next couple of days.

They've been at home for a stretch and this is game 1 of a road trip.....starting 3 time zones over.
It happens to teams

It’s 1 loss. Score doesn’t matter.
- Nighthawk

It’s one loss, but the score does matter, that was embarrassing, no effort, no urgency, no chemistry, a very blasé game.

I think Panthers will have the same result, Quenneville will have his team ready to play....Green not so much.

Yeah, it does. I'm not too worried. They needed the wake up call. They got away with some crappty habits during the win streak.

There's a big freak out among Canuck nation right now. Thursday may be too far away. Panthers got beat so they will be up for a win. Its gut check time.

TB IS A GREAT TEAM.... no worries , and a great lesson for a young team. The next game will say alot about this team and its fortitude

meh, just a speed bump for a young team

I guess its still October...

January Cup...

Here comes #teamwhiner...

Agreed - he is unbelievably good....pretty much every shift.

Playing with a couple of quality line mates gives him extra space but he can make himself space too

....I think we will be pretty bad tonight. Too much sun and fun in Tampa....
- TJTD

You nailed it.
Hope they are better next game!

Matters if no push back next game. Not gonna get hung up on one game. Let us see the response & gauge matters from there.
