If either team gets a 3 goal lead I'd like to see them line Zadorov up as a winger and just tell him to kill someone.

'Getting experience' was a 2020 thing.

This isn't a young core anymore. This is win-now time.

Miller/Boeser/Hughes/Demko before getting hurt are all playing well and doing what you'd expect. Pettersson looks like he's terrified to touch the puck. It can't be understated how bad he's been. He's making Mitch Marner's worst playoffs look like 1991 Mario Lemieux.
Nah, no way. 2020 is just not comparable at all. The psychological profile of playing in the real, actual in-person playoffs might as well be playing in a different league entirely. Playing in front of this level of fandom and with these stakes is going to have a significant affect on the mental state of the players, and the players have said as much since game 1. None of them were prepared for it and got more emotional than they expected to be.

Observation about Garland and Hoglander:

Great regular season players—but their diminutive size is clearly an impediment to their effectiveness in the playoff game.

lmao. Suter no. You've gotta at least get a shot on net out of that and force them to make a save. :laugh:
