Not really. Most of this is self inflicted. Only area we're getting dominated is the faceoff circle.

And I feel like that's mostly because Lorentz is 0-50.

Seriously, take away the unforced turnovers, Nashville is just taking advantage of us trying to play their game again. We're not going to beat and bang them to death. We won't win doing it. Keep skating and passing around and start shooting. Constantly one too many passes that lead to turnovers because they collapse the slot.

We've outscored Nashville 8-2 in the third so far this series.

Time for Canes hockey. Bring it (and your finest wines)

I don't get nervous unless we are down with under 5 minutes to play.

Lorentz is the biggest head scratcher for me on this team. What does he do, exactly? Like he's good defensively and good at digging out pucks...but I know a few guys I've played with in pick up at Indian Trail that would produce more.

As someone who has watched every minute of Canes hockey this season I actually don't like it we out hit a team...

He's a 4th line backup, he wouldn't be playing if Paquette was healthy. He's a grinder who can dig pucks out and occasionally make a decent assist, he has no shot whatsoever and is terrible in the face off circle.

I think we have made one pass too many so much in this series.....some good looks at the net and we try to get a little too fancy.  It seems those extra passes have allowed Nashville to stretch the ice on us as well.

He brings the good snacks on road trips. No Great Value Sandwich Cookies in his bag...

The puck was in our defensive zone most of the 2nd period... Honestly the worst period I have seen us play so far in this series. We are lucky to only be down 1 and sadly were a post away from being tied

It's not a great thing to do facing a quick goalie....

I love physical hockey...but that ain't us right now. We grind boards, we don't try to muscle plays unless we're talking Svech.

Anyway fug the NHL and their stupid schedule (and my early meetings), hopefully I wake up to a win

Again, self inflicted. We're just being careless. Hopefully Rod is chewing asses at intermission.
