So....lose 4-3, and then get crushed 5-1, both at home. Now down 2 games.
Is it time for Tampa Bay to press the panic button?

Blues were last in the Western Conference in early December, now they've won 2 on the road against Winnipeg. It's impressive but Craig made this team play the way they should have been but Yeo didn't know how to not be fragile. That's the difference between Craig and Yeo. Craig makes you accountable for what you do and Tarasenko thrives on that which is why since Craig he been happier and playing his best game. Then you have Binnigton who been far the most consistent Goalie and always has his head in the game something Allen always had an issue with. Winnipeg did everything they could to rattle this team and take stupid penalties and the Blues just keep playing there game. Now the key is making sure they do that at home and not ley Winnipeg take there wins back on there Ice.

Kinda love seeing Toronto and Boston try to out-dirty each other.

Columbus has been lighting up Tampa and Vasi. Hedman looks VERY rough this series. And Kucherov is suspended for game 3. The gut check for the favorites is on.

I don't think Calgary and Colorado like each other very much.

Idiocy from Nazem Kadri. What else can you call it?
That was a stupid, selfish play and itβs gonna cost his team.
But itβs easy to see why he was angry.
Jake DeBrusk elbowed Travis Dermott in the nose and might have broken it, he went knee-on-knee against Kadri and he drove Patrick Marleau into the stanchion. He didnβt get a single penalty minute for that.
The refs let that game get away from them and the Leafs self-destructed as a response.
Oh, well. Itβs a best-of-five now and the Leafs have home-ice. Iβll take it.

They look like a team that thought they'd moonwalk past the first round. I told anyone who would listen that Columbus was a bad matchup for them because they're relentless and up until now, nobody has pushed Tampa

Islanders take a 3-0 series lead against Pittsburgh. I might be able to see a playoff game at Barclays!

What the actual f*** has happened to the Lightning?! Their offense has disappeared, their elite defenseman looks like garbage water, and their goalie has some issues. And their amazing winger got suspended. Other than that, they look ok.

I mean, many were correct in predicting a sweep.

And you get to see San Jose's biggest curse that makes things so frustrating as a fan. They make zero adjustments ever. What you see in the first game is the same team you'll see in the last.

They cruised all year and figured they'd cost past whoever they drew in round 1.

In a nutshell, they have no idea how to deal with adversity. They cruised all year and figured they'd cost past whoever they drew in round 1. I don't think that's the case. They went to game 7 of the ECF last year. They were favorites this year, but they've just played a lot of bad hockey lately. Maybe the peaked too early. Hedman legitimately looks horrible. Like all of the goals the first 2 games, Hedman is getting smoked. And that's a top 3 defenseman in the game. Could be playing hurt. Vasi is getting beat badly. I think it's a combination of things. The gap between the best and the rest has usually been very small in the NHL in the cap era. Hedman definitely looks off. Columbus is hitting their stride with their deadline adds. Vasi may be getting figured out, just as fellow breakout goalie from last year Hellebuyck has been this year. Kucherov is probably the best offensive player in the league right now, and he may have made a difference in game 3, but they're in trouble now.

It's so bizarre seeing a game on NBC in Carolina.
And the Hurricanes are just destroying Washington.

Yeah, this was a Bad lost but the caps have been in bad spots throughout the season I mean they went through a 10 game losing streak in March. And, when the caps lose 10 in a row they don't make the postseason. And well look at them now so while the caps got Punched in the mouth hard by the Canes tonight I believe they will get back up and close this series in 5-6 games.

Both the Penguins and the Lightning are down 2 to 1 now in their elimination games.
