  1. The league doesn’t allow this boring style all season. Clutching grabbing, pick plays on zone entry. Interference on dump ins by defenders who no longer have to make an effort for the puck but can instead take hold up the attacking player. All season guys got to stand in front of the net untouched because it was illegal to interfere with them, but in the playoffs it’s an MMA fight and defender can basically do whatever they need to to ensure nobody can play the puck down low. The league loves skill but punishes it in the playoffs by allowing all this extra nonsense. It’s really hard to watch sometimes. They call it playoff hockey but really it’s just changing the rules and making it a different game.

  2. Panthers are ugly to watch, destruction based and choppy style kills hockey .
    It is effective but sooo butcher like to watch . If they win the cup I will have acid reflex reaction to such style .
    Oilers Rangers final would be awesome but now I will not even watch it as it is sooo hard to watch it

  3. The Rangers first line weren't scared of getting hit? Ha.

    Igor is the only reason this wasn't a sweep.

  4. I like the point at the end the practices are harder than the games they play. This is true they are coming out of every practice with stitches and injuries that players on other teams would sit out a month minimum with, and laughing about it as they go to the locker room 😑. How do you beat the guys that have better cardio and laugh about getting hurt? They are like kabib from the ufc. They are not fancy at all they just sit on you and slowly drain the life out of you over time.

  5. As a ranger fan can’t agree more with the 1 on 1 battles. Rangers only have two players like that trocheck and goodrow. The rest of the team is soft and skill set.

  6. I think the flyers can play that style of hockey , like Florida, but that’s down the road a little bit with more experience ,and a few more better players

  7. FL has to be one of the best, if not the best forechecking team in the NHL. When that forecheck is on. They are almost unbeatable. It also lessens the pressure on the offense to produce goals at a high rate. They can win close games 2-1,3-2. and It also takes a physical and mental toll on the opposition's players who wind up looking dog tired at the end

  8. Leafs should watch Panthers clips all summer long to learn what kind of team they need to become. Sadly, they just don't have the personnel for it.

  9. If If oilers moved passed dallas…honestly do you think skinner could stop the panthers…no chance
