The tripping call on Tkachuk is terrible.Could the Referee not see what was going on in front of him before he decided to put his arm up?

Real bad call. Luckily Florida killed it off. Even Dave Jackson said it wasn’t a penalty. And he’s a ref homer lol

Reinhart gets a huge Goal after Edmonton has dominated this 2nd Period.Driving the net tied up the other D-Man.

We are only where we are tonight because Florida stopped playing hockey and started **** the bed in the 3rd period of game 3. Haven’t seen them skate and hit like they have just before they took the lead back in the 2nd since those first 11 periods. They still need to do a lot more of that if they want to win this game.

All true,it was a walk over performance until then.
They are foolish to completely back off and go into a shell here.Get the puck into the Edmonton zone and stop icing it every shift.

If a team decides to stop skating that’s not icing.

Nobody can freeze a puck against the boards like the Panthers do to close out a game.

Good for Florida. Better team won. Was getting sick of hearing about all of the visitors and McDavid.

McDavid showing up for 2 games in a 7 game series should not get him the Conn Smythe no matter how good those two games were.

I guess Bob?

Has to be either of them. Could see Canadian media give it to McDavid.

McDavid is special.Respect for his talent. and brilliance.An All Time Great for sure.
We heard for weeks he is as good as Mario,Gretzky,Orr and Howe.
We heard he would break the 47 Points by Gretzky,,the 44 Points by Mario.

Before he can even be in a conversation with the top 4-5 guys in has to do what we have seen them do.And that includes Crosby as little as it will get said.
