The Coilers must practice their dramatic leaps and dives. They're very good at it

Garland is thr only one who seems to realize it's their last game.

Game 6 was a real turning point where their stars woke up and our few stars who've been awake went silent with the others
I put more blame on Hughes than Miller and Pettersson as he is key to our offence
He's clearly injured
I hope so, if not it’s concerning cause after watching Makar and Heiskenen in these playoffs its night and day

It definitely created the direction of the game in the first.

Pods just doesn't contribute anything when he gets in. It's a decision that makes itself, sadly.

Geez, poor Arty is facing the firing squad tonight.

It's amazing to me how jekyll and hyde this team is.
We destroyed them in game 5 playing our game and game 6 and 7 we look like a different team

I really wish we could afford to re sign Lindy, he's been really good almost every game.

Maybe Mr Aquilini can offer Mikheyev a deal he likes/can't refuse?

No offense. No attack. No speed to the net.

They better fucking trade Pettersson. He’s useless in tight checking games. I’ve never seen him skate into a shot…..he’s a fucking rod hockey pylon.

Well, they got to game 7 of the 2nd rd. without their #1 goalie... in fact, with their 3rd stringer.

I'm proud of the guys. I wish they showed a bit better in the last 2 games, but just didn't have it.

Great season. I'll take it.

Need a game breaker or two - not easy to find.
Team looks just like Travis Green’s fall back and defend teams.

Was gonna say something like this myself, was just saving it for a little later. Proud of these guys.

I do wish we hadn't gone quite so 'all in' with this roster. The cupboards are far from stocked.
