Refpuck.
Fucking limping into the playoffs
Officiating aside… YIKES
As much as we got fucked raw by the moronic zebras, we have officially reached panic levels of concern. Team needs to solve this losing fast
I really have no words for the officiating tonight. I usually like to give them the benefit of the doubt but they simply made incorrect calls in literally every phase of the game.
New York paid the refs off there’s simply no other explanation
Dog shit officiating aside this was the kind of game you’d like to see them come out and win 5-0 and as soon as we couldn’t pop a few in the 1st we all knew where this was going. Puck luck hasn’t been great but the last 7 games have looked like the 2016-2020 Panthers where we were saying the puck luck has to even out eventually. Nothing to do now but win Saturday and shake this bug off.
Also remember when we lost all the must win games before the playoffs last year, and had to have Pittsburgh lose to Chicago and Columbus just to get in? We trying to repeat what we did last year apparently
glad we tried for the last 10 minutes so we can talk about how much we liked our fight in the postgame interviews
Team needs to get their act together fast. I know we’ve had injuries and just got healthy but my lord the offense just going cold in key moments
I’ll say it. Adding Tarasenko fucked up our line chemistry. Forcing him to play line 1 means everyone gets shuffled and breaks up that second line that just worked. We were fucking rolling, man.
Fucking fuck
We’re in a true losing streak. Bad times. You need to hope they pull out of it aggressively right before the playoffs.
Yeah the refs sucked tonight…really sucked. But anyone that has watched this team in the last 2-3 weeks and is still saying they aren’t even the slightest bit concerned is just lying to themselves. Forecheck has been half assed, sustained offensive zone play has disappeared, and we are getting half as many shots on goal as we typically were in the first 3/4 of the season. It just looks stale. Maybe the boys legs are shot from playing in Pomo’s system for a whole regular season. We know how this team can play so I’m not giving up at all…but just being honest I am not as confident in this team heading into the playoffs as I was a month ago
That was truly rough to watch 🙁
Even when we were showing some life
Refs just shut us down
I’m annoyed but not stressed. We looked solid for the most part tonight and two of those goals were very bad luck against our favour. Likewise in the previous two games against the bruins and rangers. Stuff to work on but it’s far better to go into the playoffs with a chip on your shoulder than on top of the world
This team is in serious trouble. Those deadline acquisitions are looking more and more like they’ve completely messed with the vibe of the team.
We’ve dropped 6 out of our last 7. By far our worst stretch this year and it’s right as we’re about to enter the postseason, when you want your team to be gearing up for playoff hockey.
Ooof we went from looking pretty unbeatable to not winning a game. I’m a little concerned at this point.
PM needs to start tearing players a new asshole. Too many fucking players just skating off to the bench when puck barely goes by them and in our own zone.
if you flipped a fucking coin each time we win more than we have in the last 7.
truly dumbfounded and flabbergasted by this anticlutch cold streak
Then again, if the Flyers and Red Wings lose, are we technically in?
I think I’ve seen this film before, and I didn’t like the ending.
Doesn’t help when the record shows the refs are biased [scouting the refs](https://scoutingtherefs.com/2024/03/44430/todays-nhl-referees-and-linespersons-3-28-24/#NYIvsFLA)
I don’t want to hear about the officiating tonight. Yes, it sucked. What else is new? The officiating isn’t the reason they didn’t get it done in the third, and the officiating isn’t the reason they’ve been in a coma for most of the last three weeks. And a serious team shouldn’t need calls to beat the fucking Islanders.
In the playoffs, bad calls are going to happen. Bad bounces are going to happen. Injuries are going to happen. If you’re a contender, you overcome it. They don’t hand you the Cup for beating up on teams in February. Someone on that team had better realize that soon.
As a Vladdy & Chucky fan- I’ve been fed. As a Stolie Stan I’m heartbroken to see him get whacked around like that with no call.
Goalie interference calls should be handled by Toronto not these bozos
Not surprised seeing a missed tripping call in a pivotal game vs nyi
Refs suck OTTN
What is life without its challenges
Okay y’all. Jersey is going in the wash. We gotta cleanse that sucker!!
All 3 islanders goals were 5 on 5. They went 0/6 on the power play. This wasn’t a good team. Did the refs help us? No. Should we need them to? No. Crying about the refs is what losers do. Win the game that’s all that matters. Toughen up
They need to get it together.
Panthers lack killer instinct. They had them dead to rights in the first period and scored one goal. Last game, they scored right away and dicked around on a powerplay and didn’t score. They can’t count on holding one goal leads. If they lose to Detroit or Montreal, I’m hitting the panic button. They’re very close to backing into the playoffs.
Red wings level of losing rn
But wait!! With the Flyers and Red Wings both losing, it is now official: The Florida Panthers have clinched their spot in the playoffs!!
Their shot percentage has fallen off a cliff. Have teams figured them out?
