20 more minutes! What a game so far. Let's Go Isles! I was thinking the same thing. Went to dinner with a bunch of people, they had the Isles game on big TV but no sound. Then a horrific storm hit and knocked out the Direct TV. Came back on with about 9 minutes left. I was pissed so I just drank another Margarita maybe 2 and waited. My wife says lets go home as the game comes back on after the storm. I told her were not going anywhere. Order another drink like your daughter and relax talk to her. I'm watching the end of this game. I now left the table and moved to the bar so I could see better. When we got home I watched it again for I had it taped. Went to bed late am exhausted and hung over today. Not telling my wife. In the words of Belichek " On to Boston".

I hadn't watched a hockey game in years, and usually go to bed by 8pm during the week. My wife happened to put that game on, so I poured another Sambuca on the rocks to check it out, And another, and another... we're in the same boat - except actually I can not only tell, but blame my wife.

OK, It's 6:30 on Saturday evening getting ready to watch the first game of the Isles - Bruins series. No Margarita's this time. Here we go...... F BOSTON!!!!!!!!!! OK were down 1 game. We were beaten in just about every aspect of this game. Shots on goal, face offs, physically. Sorokin kept in this game for 2 periods. 40 saves or more. Our defense scored both goals and were playing strong Mayfield and Green. And the P & P boys. And the announcers said Boston was targeting our defensive guys cause they felt they were the heart of this team. But our forwards were outplayed by a mile. We couldn't even get a shot on goal on a power play. We didn't even test their goalie all game. Bergeron is great, McAvoy and Hall played great. Boston looked great. Game 2 we better come a lot harder. Boston was well rested, We better be more physical up front Monday. I think I go with Sorokin again in goal.

Man that Vegas/Colorado game got a bit testy at the end I wish they would let teams brawl because the bs I saw both teams doing would not have happened if brawls happened

I saw a tweet earlier that said that Doug Ford opened up the Golf courses early for The Leafs and so far ....
The annual playoff choke for the Leafs is complete

Boy did the Isles need that win last night. The Bruins came back strong in the 3rd. Valamov made some real good stops. Our Goalies and defensemen have carried our bacon these playoffs. good to see our forwards hitting and forechecking again. I love watching Clutterbuck and Martin.
Now the 3rd game and 1st of the home games I would think we stay with Valamov but Trots has been magic with the right goalies. At least we know it will be a Russian goalie with a left handed catching mitt.

The Isles should feed off the crowd and we can be more aggressive than we've been. If the Isles can get their power play scoring it would be so big in these remaining games. I think the Isles come out at a 100mph tonight.

Varlomov has been phenomenal. Keeping the game within reach through 2.
Down 1-0
Rask has been solid as well.
Isles are going to need to keep shooting as soon as they get the shot. Keep putting the puck on net and hopefully something bounces through.
Come on Barzy! Get one!

Isles had a bunch of chances thr last couple of minutes of regulation and in the beginning of OT. Must win game 4.

Why can't Tampa ever put their foot on team's throats up 2-0 at home and have to make things harder than they should ?

We could have won as easy as we lost. If were going to win this series were going to need to get a few to more than a few breaks and lucky bounces. Hope they stay with Valamov in game 4.

Lightning are a bunch of gutless losers if they lose this series. Since 2015 Tampa has had tbe most talented team in the league and other than last year they get punked by an inferior team .. They should have had at least 3 cups with this team.. Comes down to their loser coach Cooper that he can't get this team to play up to their talent They lose tbis Cooper has to go
Team standing around in their defensive zone being spectators again ...all tbe symptoms of a better team that is not giving the effort and letting the other team out work them
**** Cooper

But now they have a strangle hold on a very good team 3-1. Their not going to lose 3 games in a row. That division their in has 3 of the top teams and they faced both of them in these first 2 rounds and look pretty damn tough to beat. If you ask me today I would think Tampa and Colorado in the finals.
