Stumpy

Finally get to whip out the PP...

Calvin bailed out Freddy hard or it woulda been another freebie for Vegas...

Getting some pressure on Quick, need to capitalize!

If it hadn't been for the interference on Jarvis's breakaway you might have been on the nose again... lol

I like the idea of giving our young King the net against NJ. It's risky with them right on our tail, but that is why I like it. Give him a taste of the pressure now, in case we need him into playoffs.

Someone should find a way to track bad penalties in every NHL game and name it the Zebra Effect Subtract that from the gap between your expected vs actual wins/goals stats, and you have the teams' It Factor

People who expect to see DJ put up 1500+ yards and make us look stupid for trading him have no grasp of history, or physics for that matter. There is a reason that Chicago has never had an elite passer or receiver in there ~100 year history. When Moose supposedly said, "Chicago is where WRs go to die" it wasn't meant as a facetious statement. You can't play 8-9 games per season in an open stadium in the "Windy City" and expect to have a top level passing attack. The reason that Da Bears have a reputation for smash mouth football is that is the only style that consistently works in that stadium.

Expected goals is basically a fancier scoring chance metric. We produce more scoring opportunities than anyone but FLA and allow far less than the next closest team.

1st ️ (4th shutout) 2nd ️ ( Game Winning Goal, 3 hits) 3rd ️ ( 1 assist, Happy Birthday)

Kucci wants the puck so bad right now...

They're only down 1 but haven't really generated much heat all game. I'd pull the goalie if I was them...

Hopefully our PP can keep making the magic happen!

Damn KK got robbed!

Why do we always do this?!?

Glad that was just a scare for Andrei...

Svech poppin on the PP...

Birthday boy walking up like he's about to go round up that gang of russlers who killed the last sheriff... ...or bust out the sickest dulcimer solo you've ever heard!

I'm don't think you can take that kind of passion away from a player. Smitty and Jake had it as Panthers. Smitty rode his passion to a golden jacket (eventually) while Jake rode his into the heart of every Panther fan under the age of 30. There are always gonna be ups and downs. Smith had his fair share of ejections and personal fouls and everyone remembers the meltdowns that Jake got himself into. The good thing about players that run on pure emotion is that they tend to be at their best when emotions are highest, ie the playoffs... This is what it ultimately comes down to. If King Kucci plays up to his potential, nobody but the other team will have a problem with the antics that come with his game. And the fans will love him all the more for it.

Heeee's baaaacckkkkk!!! Canes Recall Kochetkov On An Emergency Basis

This one is pretty good, too...
