Nice to see everyone proving Donnie's point.

DeSmith on hit

“I kind of loved it – It got me into the game,” “I thought it was kind of funny. He was clearly coming to hit me. I was laughing after the fact. I’ve got a bunch of pads on. It didn’t hurt. So I just got up and the power play made him pay for it and that felt pretty good, too.”

That backhand cross-crease pass from Petey to Hog was magic. But, no! Now you’ve all been fooled into singing DeSmith’s praises. The guy the defense saved. Yes - he's had his moments, not saying he hasn't, but the guy should have more than a few 'moments' in a playoff game. As for DeSmith - we all ...

That's how Pettersson plays in the playoffs when he's on his game. What we are seeing is the slump Pettersson. So is he waiting to make a dramatic entrance? We could really use a 2nd about now. The last 2 games have been strange to say the least - we dominate G2 and lose, we barely hang in for G3 a...

Something to build on, for sure. Let's take G4 and come home.

And we can all exhale....

Playoff wins can be ugly. As long as they're wins.

Weird 1st for sure.... Hughes needs to be careful outv there!

Still, 1-0 after 1. I'll take it.

3 hours to go - I'm looking forward to this one!

Our complete absence of a 2nd line threat has also made it easy for Nashville to match up and defend.

All points are valid, and this is really what it boils down to. A little luck, and EP40 pulls his head out of his ass and we've got this.

This is as close to a must-win game that we want to get. It's going to be tough right from the start, and I hope the boys understand the effort they'll need in the first 5 minutes. Survive that, then start playing our game. Keep it simple, and if a pred wants to block a shot, wind up and blast it. D...

Tyler Myers was back on the ice after missing game two with an illness.
