  1. Burn the tape. The group of fans in that video “wanted” Boston too, cringe fans in Florida.

    Time to exorcise our demons in the first round, guess this was inevitable.

  2. Dangerous_Cream5837

    Our defense just isn’t good enough and it sucks. Pasta is going to absolutely destroy Mo and Lybushkin.

  3. DeathEater91

    Outshot 29 to 4 in the 2nd period, a big fucking embarrassment right before the playoffs.

    At least if we sat Matthews we could have blamed the loss on him being out.

    He better sit tomorrow, we don’t need another confidence destroying loss tomorrow while everyone tries to force Matthews to score.

  4. I cannot remember the last time I lost interest in something so fast.

    My god this team sucks the fun out of life faster then anything

  5. MallardDuckBoy

    Matthews at 69 is such a curse right now. This team is so torn between 70 and winning.

  6. Neat-Explanation7948

    Team needs to find motivation between periods, because whatever we have currently doesn’t cut out. Feels like we get outworked and the tempo of games can change very easily for us this year in the intermission.

  7. asheeponreddit

    Well that sucked.

    Was really hoping for Matthews to get 70 and for Reavo to put somebody in full body traction regardless of the score.

  8. Shit plays + shit officiating + shit luck = total shit show. Nobody seems to be in the game after the first and Matthews is clearly choking on the 70.

    The “we want Florida” chant is annoying but you know what, good. Feed fuel into the fire and let it burn so these guys *want* a rematch in round 2.

    Fuck this night. Fuck Paul Maurice and the Panthers. Fuck the officiating. Bring on the Bolts tomorrow and fucking BAG IT.

    GLG!

  9. WTF_James

    That wasn’t the way to play about your ‘almost guaranteed’ playoff opponent.

    Yeesh.

  10. Arch-Vader

    Brutal game. Why is Matthews playing below the net on powerplays half the time? He should be sitting like Ovi, and yet he’s retrieving pucks and being the dish-man.

    Make it make sense pls

  11. Initial_Pumpkin964

    Kucherov’s 99 assists vs Matthews’ 69 goals in the next match

  12. FanaticOldSchool

    Gotta be the worst game to watch all season.

    Bad reffing
    AM34 had like 3 near goals
    5 unanswered goals after a 2 and 0 start
    Give up a league leading amount of shots in the 2nd

    Not instilling confidence going into playoffs.

  13. Our d corps sucks, just good enough for the regular season

  14. ElephantShell34

    Damn. He’s really gonna end up 1 shy of 70. So close yet so far. 

  15. richardatn4t

    Mostly meaningless game, I wish AM34 would have gotten 70 out of the way (I have my doubts now)

    But this team has a certain knack of finding the most embarrassing ways to lose, that 2nd period is one for the ages.

  16. IntellectualFella

    Once the clock hit zero, I looked at my wife with a deranged look on my face and she said…

    “Oh my god. Boston round 1 will bring out goblin mode in you”

    That’s why I FUCKING MARRIED HER

    LETS GOOOOOO SEE YOU IN BOSTON

  17. 2b_0r_n0t_2b

    We won the last game against Florida. This game was close except the disastrous 2nd period, the one period I didn’t watch lol

    It’s a game of inches. We came close to scoring several times in the third. We got a few days until the playoffs. This has been an overall decent season. Let’s bring out A game to the playoffs. I believe in the boys.
