Like the flames scoring the game winner only to have it called no goal because the refs fucking stupid and then lose that game and game 7. To go from the glory of winning the cup to agony of defeat is worth at least 20 first and second round exits. You are severely discounting the Sharks’ numerous choke jobs. | ||

This team has basically since its inception played with a heavy forechecking mentality (not the most elegant, nor my favorite style, for certain). This tendency has been exacerbated by Tortorella's 2-1-2 defensive schema; at this stage in the season, I expected him to double down on the "pucks out, pucks deep" mantra, especially given that the team's best breakout-passing defensive (Ryan Murray) is still injured. I did not expect a sudden switch to a 1-2-2 backchecking system. And I certainly did not expect the Blue Jackets would execute this switch flawlessly and stymie the best team in the lockout era. | ||

A couple things 1) I don't think forechecking is great fun to watch unless you're a pigeon forward who loves absolutely running at D-Men and making them cough up pucks. 2) Bob stole games 1 and 2. The Jackets won game 3. So I'm not ready to call TB out because if Bob fades I can see the Lightning figuring out the change and pulling their thumbs out of their asses. 3) Your sig is amazing. | ||

He’s the most infuriating player. He’s got enough skill to be a 40g-70pt guy every year but he’s got a shitty attitude and is gonna have 40pim in this series by the time he’s eliminated. I usually like skill guys who can fight but he so unbelievably dumb for getting goaded by reaves of all people | ||

my favorite joke to come from it though, is Svechnikov took more shots that period than Mrazek. although like the author, apparently i also thought the fight happened early in the 2nd, not 10 minutes into the 1st. now i feel even worse for the kid. | ||
