This just in: it was better

Yup, that's an understatement.  So awesome.

More flashy for sure, but that may be a valuable point Carolina picked up.

I was thinking the same, but who cares - we ain't looking back. Let that be someone else's problem.

I don’t see a good argument for Taylor Hall not being the Conn Smythe winner at this point in the season, we’re witnessing one of the greatest seasons by a Devil ever

If Taylor Hall wins the Conn Smythe, we'll be having a whole different conversation. [emoji14]

the best argument would be that the Conn Smyth is for the best player of the playoffs and its not the playoffs yet...

i feel this is a pretty solid argument but i'm willing to be challenged

RECAP

  • Another gutsy win where it wasn't pretty, but they simply got the job done.
  • Kinkaid stole the game like Lack did last night.
  • Hall is pretty good.
  • Nice to see Zacha score in back to back nights.
  • The 5 on 6 system in the d-zone is horrific.
    • Collapsing to the net, and allowing point men to walk in and shoot is bad.
    • Pressure on the puck is still needed, especially the point men!
  • Also, hopefully the coaches learn something from these past two games
    • Just shoot the damn puck when on the powerplay!
    • Tampa has all the talent in the world, and even THEY don't try fancy stuff.
      • They just rip it on net any chance they get
    • Carolina doesn't have the talent Tampa has, but you still saw how effective they were just by shooting the puck from everywhere!.

I can make a flawless argument against it...the Conn Smythe is a postseason award. :P

When has Hall made you want to pull your hair out?

He, understandably, tries to do too much from time to time and does a fair amount of turning the puck over trying to skate through every defenseman on the ice. A shift or two before the goal, Faulk had broken his stick and we effectively had a 3 on 2. It broke down when Hall decided to try to beat whoever the Hurricane was around the wing, instead of playing smarter possessive hockey, and we lost the possession and Carolina was able to regroup. Drove me nuts, but obviously I wouldn't trade his game for anything.
