Who else? Matt Tkachuk.
Very quiet game... and then boom. Wrist shot into the top corner.
13 seconds before OT #5.

I passed out midway through the 4th OT. Some ridiculous looking Ice time stats are an obvs byproduct of a game like this. Brandon Montour with God Damn near an hour of ice time, 57:56 by my watch.
It was my understanding there would be no math in the debates.

That iffy cross check that led to a two man advantage and a Cane goal, and the disallowed first OT Florida goal were both injustices IMO. The right team won.
The woke mind virus consists of creating very divisive identity politics, amplifies racism, amplifies sexism and all of the -isms while claiming to do the opposite. It actually divides people and makes them hate each other and hate themselves--Musk

I am so fucking done with replay officiating.
Live with the mistakes. That's life.

It wa not just a thermocouple :roll: had to replace the gas valve!!! Finally found one and it is running at 6PM :( Day is shot! No nappy time! Hopefully no OT tonight!

Went to bed after the 3rd ended, no way i would have stayed up all night to watch this and get up at 5:30am to go to work. If the Wings were playing i would have watched it all but not doing that for any team other than them if i have to work early the next day.

I have hated on Bob as a playoff choker his entire career, but he’s on fire this year. Tkachuk is having a Smythe worthy playoffs as well. 4 OT Goals?!?!

Tkachuk again in OT. WTF.
I don't understand how Calgary couldn't do more with Tkachuk and Bennett.

Got to admit, he's a helluva player. Brilliant job by Florida's GM to dump Huberdeau, who just isn't a playoff-type player, and go after Tkachuk. It's almost like the Shanahan trade, where they just needed this one piece to be a serious contender. Hope they win it all. Screw Brind'Amour and his boring-ass system.
