Yeah, but I don’t think anyone can pull off the man purse better than Matthews, they were made for each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Matthews was upset his dream of playing for Arizona is gone for the time being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Too little, too late for Tampa. Florida largely looked like the better team, three to go. Florida will want a bit more from Bobrovsky though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida was so clinical defensively, just dominating the neutral zone. Tampa needs to work harder to earn PP's, they'll need their PP to have a chance in this series.

I.Am.Ironman Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 23 hours ago, Coconuts said: He still shouldn't be playing any time soon, seriously. I get the athletes have access to experts and care most people don't, but you just don't recover from something super quickly without making questionable health decisions (steroids and so on). Bones heal pretty quickly relative to tendons, ligaments etc. Considering he is a pro athlete and has the best care available this isn't all that surprising. He is still at a relatively high risk of reinjury but a return at this juncture isn't suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did, and it was, but maybe just a little more. Panthers put on a defensive clinic, they absolutely have the horses to shut Tampa down. Barkov in particular was great. Hopefully they get the next one, if they go up 2-0 Tampa will be hard pressed to come back. Edited April 21 by Coconuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunna need a real bounce back, Kuch wasn't horrible but they'll need more from him. Thought the former Van guys OEL & Forsling both looked really good for Florida too. Really like their defense, good depth, can spread the mins out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno, I'm no doctor but fractures to both the tibia and fibula seem like they should keep him out longer. I get that hockey players will play through more than.the typical athlete, but still. Isn't worth the longer-term risk imo, they'll need him going forward and Hedman ain't getting any younger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hoping the Bolts get punter sooner than later. Forsling is a great talent, OEL's had a much better season in Florida too. They have good, well rounded depth, they don't be able to keep it all though so this year is probably their best chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
