If they had played that third period the way they played the last 5 minutes, it’s a much different result.
I’d keep Varlamov in net but this loss is on him.

If you give Lee even a fraction of an inch I’ll kill you.

Sounds like about 2 inches in 'Murican.

Is it my fault my hockey knowledge is so far above some on this site? Do I have to dumb things down even more?

I'm ok, too, with starting Varlamov again, but I think the leash just got a little bit shorter.

The Isles having another sweep was a little too much to expect.

I’d go with Greiss personally.

Would be a very bold move schwein. Greiss has done well against Florida though.

Well I kinda figured completing the act was reward enough.

Thought we were decent today. Special teams still hurting us. Not sure why we’re so passive on pk. And pp shoots far too infrequently. Need to close out Friday. Btw crickets in here. Is there another BD hideaway or something?

Probably, many are cleaning up after the storm. A lot of people lost electricity, too.

Greiss should have gotten the start on a back-to-back. Surprised that Trotz went with Varly when their #'s are near identical. I'm not upset that they will have to play another game, tho. They need to get going offensively and that will only happen with more reps. Sitting for a number of days waiting for 1st round to start could have been a bad thing. They're all well rested and away from normal life—great time to play a bunch of games.

Roger that. We had 4” rain in my hometown, north of Albany. Hope all are safe and healthy.

They'll close it out tomorrow. I have the day off so I can watch it live. Having to wait to watch the game after work was killing me.
