12 minutes left in the third. Panthers 46 shots, Gibson 45 saves. Only goal went in off a dman’s skate.
For those wondering if he’s still good, he’s been unreal in both games vs FL this season

None personally as they need to aim higher to much higher at forward.

Aim higher, he would be a perfect top 9 player for this team.

It's why I'm advocating for bringing in Gudbranson as a 3rd pair RHD this offseason, and forwards like Copp or Nichushkin.

Yepp,
Gudbranson and Manson, might cost some extra pesos to get them here but I think they're worth bringing in.

Wow... Peyton Krebs, that guy who just stripped you is Mitch Marner. You might want to be aware of him.

Thanks amigo. A lot of good teams this year. Playoffs should be fun to watch across the board

For sure. I’m considering adopting Toronto this post season to root for. Matthews is just unreal

It’s a good thing the Joker broke up that 3 on 1 while skinner was still standing at the Leafs blue line to make that all happen
- Pegullaville


That is true. I think it’s wise to have a goal hanger or 2 on the team. What do you think?

Power reminds me of Samuelson in that he looks like he has been doing this for 5 more years than he really has. While I would love to get a top 4 D in the offseason I don't think that person needs to be a babysitter for Power.

So Thompson, Cozens, and Krebs as the top 3 centers?

Where's Mittelstadt playing?

My point: It looks like there's only room to add one forward next season.

I'd rather look for a higher impact forward for that one addition.

They need some hockey trades to improve the roster. Do they have it in them to trade guys they like? probably not.

It actually looks like a big, scary poopkicker to play 15 minutes a game and put the fear of god into everyone as a 6/7th might be needed.

I actually like the idea of throwing a ton of cash at Letang on a short-term contract. Get another attacking D.

Gmka has a few directions he could go this off-season. It’s just soo hard to guess. I’m just glad we look like we deserve to play in the NHL again. Cheers!

Enter Gudbranson or Zadorov.

Hell, bring them both in to do exactly the job you described as the 3rd pair.

Until proven otherwise, seems like they'll do the bare minimum in the offseason, other then add the obvious young players to the roster.
