matthew is a beautiful mare he is a wild horse unwilling to be tamed by any man and sasha barkov is the quiet but strong farmhand who sneaks into the pasture at night to gently stroke his hand through matthew’s hair like “woahhh girl” and his calm and steady presence will give matthew the stability he needs to stay out of the fucking box
Look, unpopular opinion maybe but I think I’ve noticed the main difference in McDavid’s game vs Eichel’s.
Obviously McDavid is the better overall player, he makes plays and scores out of absolutely nothing, no one can dispute that.
But. But I will say. As many goals as Connor scores, Jack assists on just as many. This has definitely developed since his Buffalo days. He also makes plays out of nothing, but he’s the one that gets the puck to the player who scores. At least this season, and particularly during the Florida series. The difference is that Connor has…two? players that he can count on. Jack has like eleven. Jack is one piece of a well oiled machine. Connor has to be the machine. (Plus one German of course)
I cannot believe it's 2.30am and there's still at least 35 minutes of hockey left, plus whatever bullshit ads there's going to be. Why am I doing this. Flop cats back in their flop era
Aka: Annoying the fuck out of the other team until they do something stupid (and then probably laughing at them for it, knowing Lomberg as I do).
Listen, as a fan from his AHL days… I can say that 1. I absolutely am thrilled with the appreciation the Panthers have for both his skill and his Fucking Little Pest energy, and 2. My immediate reaction to hearing about that play via the radio broadcast was “as he does! Good for him.”
Ok, so I'm just now watching Game 5 of Knights vs. Cats and it's the 2nd period and the score is now 4-1 for the Knights. I guess that's it then. This is the worst. Sasha has lead the most unexpected team to the finals and he still won't win. I'm so sad. For him.
