Funny not thinking is exactly how I’d describe their power play lately...

...and we all know that Burr was at his best when he didn't have to think.....

I would like to see how Petey looks on Horvat’s wing when he gets back, because next season I think this could be a nicely balanced top 6 lineup:

 

Pettersson Horvat Podkolzin

Hoglander Miller Boeser

Jovo was a guy with all the tools, but every once in a while would make a decision that earned him the nickname "Special Ed".....That being said, they were almost always what the old-timers like to call "the errors of enthusiasm"......It was never a lack of caring, nor trying.....

 

Jovocop was a heart and soul guy and I remember being pissed that they gave the C to Nazzy instead of him. As much as I loved Markus, I never considered him a "leader". (except on the scoresheet)

I was also pissed Jovo didn't get the C.   At least in PHX they gave it to him - much deserved.

if you're having to think while you're on the ice, you're not going to have a very good time.

Pettersson and Eichel both out with mysterious upper body injuries. Hmmm.

 

Pettersson for Eichel [E5]

Would need to add.  Hmm....OJ and Big Mac are also not playing.

That’s silly of course you have to think.

 

They have to have an idea of how they want to execute before they start. That’s not very apparent when I watch them move the puck around.

Both win cups

 

both more advanced in their rebuild 

Colorado hasn’t won a cup in 20 years, the Panthers have been terrible for over 2 decades. Poor example is poor. 
 

Chicago is the only half decent example there and even their rebuilds took over 15 years to get back to the finals.

I’d like to know what year the Panthers won the cup? Asking for a friend. 

He’s confusing his EA fantasy with real life.

Gotta give credit where credit is due... Brown definitely makes it easy for the players on the other team.  They definitely don't need to think against our PP.

Congratulations to @stanleysteamersmyl for predicting the Gaudette goal. On a side note let’s take a moment to console @250Integra who may have lost his house betting on Toff to score a goal. Hope you didn’t find any takers.

I'm really liking this new wraparound attempt we're trying lately...mixes it up.  I've seen 3-4 in the recent games and I like the idea of greasy goals like this.

 

Yep.

 

Also....just got here so not sure if it's been mentioned...but Petey's out for at least another week.  BOOOOOOO

I was kidding of course, but Pete could def pick up his game imo.

I agree, guy has been invisible the last 3 games.

The Panthers made it to the cup once (96) since they entered the league in 94 and they did not win. In fact in 26 seasons they have only made the playoffs 5 times.

We’ve made the playoffs more in the last decade than they have in their existence, yet somehow they are a shining example of a franchise
