Good high tempo start to the game so far.

The Loafs are still living dangerously, high event, trading rushes; bad strategy when your defence is weak

Thing is, that's the only kind of game they know how to play, they don't have a trap option

None the less, most teams in this predicament would fall back into a trap to try to insulate the goalie

The Loafs can't win with their style, with the defense they have right now

Going to be another 8 goal game at this rate.

Going to be another 8 goal game at this rate.

As I said, high event, trading rushes, with a depleted defense, is not sustainable

The only thing that is keeping them in this game at all is that Florida is also a dumpster fire in their own zone

It's a retarded team v. a tired team just back from a western road swing

Okay, that goal was Fredo's fault, that can't go in from there, this is where I would pull him and put Soupie in

Yeah, pretty small goal to defend from that shooting angle.

Andersen was pulled and retired in the last two Panthers games. Could be three in a row where he doesn't finish.

.500 save percentage, nice.

They all suffer from the same mental malaise together, the inmates are running the asylum

They are basically un-coachable because they simply refuse to play with any sort of structure

All they do is play shinny, river hockey, run & gun, and that simply doesn't work in the NHL

This team needs to be humiliated over and over, until they learn to do what the coaches tell them to do

[Smitty-48]

Florida is having problems too, Bobrovsky shits the bed to keep the Loafs in it

2 goals on 8 shots, at $10 million AAV, makes Andersen look good by comparison

[Montegriffo]

Fuck me, 6 goals in the first period. Did I only say an 8 goal game?
