Game Thread: Playoff time baby! Habs @ Bolts Game 1

[dannyb24195]

Lindy gets the call in net, signs are that Filppula and Palat will play. Should be interesting whether Cooper goes 12/6 or 11/7?

Should be fun, so pumped for the playoffs!!!!!!!!!! Not making any predictions, just LETS GO BOLTS!!! #BE THE THUNDER!!!!!

What a great game, been watching the highlights and I've been impressed with Stamkos's play tonight. Overtime has been a great example of why NHL playoff hockey is the best!

Tough loss but you can't be too down. Game could've gone either way. Lindback sort of came back down to Earth in this one.

I think lindback played really good one bad goal i did not like 5 hole. are defense was terrible! very terrible. The puck was in are zone all night price played awful other then ot. We got out shot 44 to 25 we can't let montreal do that to us we have better forwards by far.

Yeah he wasn't so bad, defense continues to struggle.

I think Bishop could have won that game for us in spite of the Habs spending all night in our end.

Why did he scratch Sustre, I thought he played well for us the last few games ?

Agreed, makes no sense to scratch Sustr right now.

 

[Todd1a]

Please bench Purcell put Connolly in! Put sustr in bench kostka please

Bolts are going to have to play better that in game 2, we weren't good at all especially in our end. Carle, Salo, Brewer, Kostka, were terrible, Gudas and Hedman played ok. Too many soft turnovers, how can you go from a shutout against the Caps who we just completely shut them down and then you give the Habs all this freebies. I thought Lindy played well, outside of Killorn, Johnson, Stamkos, Kucherov and Brown and couldn't find anyone else, what did Filppula do? What did Callahan do? these are our most experienced players as is Purcell and what did he do?

 

[Bolt Fore]

We spent most of the game trying to get out of our own end. When we did we played a good game. I don't see any other team spending as much time in their own end.

Just win lightning
