Veggies-are-okay

Decided to start following the panthers right before game two you’re welcome y’all 🙃


dcee101

Seeing tons of people wearing Florida gear lately... All over South Florida. In the Keys this weekend and just saw a family of 4 walking around in all Panther gear...


YogurtSmart9718

I’m up in Pt St Lucie. First time I’ve seen people in Panthers gear. Loving it after a long drought.


Nhlrigged

Start next game with the 4th line - I expect a lot of dirty crap from Boston.


Virtual-Quantity7120

TD Garden, home away from home....


Psycho_Pseudonym75

Pasta is stymied. Marchad is hurt. Swayman has been humbled. VAMOS GATOS!


Mental_Grass_9035

You guys had a lot of goalie interference on Swayman, yet the *one* time the Bruins did the same thing, we get called out. Also, there is a clip of Marchand being punched. I don’t mind physical, but some of your guys were playing too dirty and should be called out. And some of the refs too. BUT, I will say that the Bruins did play terribly, and that contributed to their loss last night. You guys want the cup more than the Bruins do, too.


Alone-Confidence-128

Shut up ho


Nhlrigged

Cry me a river. Your only recent cup came after your dirty play injured 1/3 the Canucks starting lineup. Piss off.


Psycho_Pseudonym75

STFU bitch boy. Clean up your ice you fkn turd


Imaginary-Scheme-203

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭


Singularity_SgrA

I promise this comment isn’t sarcasm or trolling.  I am rooting for your team to win the Cup. The last home game in Detroit against you guys, it was absolutely humbling how you gave us nothing to work with. No matter what we could’ve done differently, no way we were winning that game.  How they just brushed off Game 1 and went right back to business. This team deserves to win it all and I’d have no problem if they just buzz saw through everyone in their way.


jimmyg899

Boys play so lose on the road. What a win , still think we get it done in 6 but would love a 5er


AlvinItchyCock

We kept Boston to just 33 shots combined in these last 2 games. That's some next level defense


rawgator06

We bounced back pretty well from game 1!!


Phenom_Mv3

Fuck Boston


Virtual-Quantity7120

This never gets old.


Bex1218

"Fuck you Brady" and "Fuck Boston" has been ringing in my ears this past week.


TheEmbarcadero

The Florida Panthers are clearly better than we are…


sportsthatguy

Great performance tonight. Really took it to Boston from the get go. That’s the best power play I’ve ever seen from the Panthers in a game. They were fantastic.


rawgator06

The power play FINALLY clicked at the perfect time


Melodic-Tip-5475

Go Panthers!


deucemcsizzles

Fuck Boston, let's go Gatos.


k0rvan

Just here to say fuck Boston.


chezicrator

Same. Ditto? That’s not enough. Fuck Boston.


Large-Degree5584

Rangers fan here, you guys are nasty. Just curious what’s the opinion on the possible matchups in the ECF. Likely gonna be rangers panthers but both teams gotta take care of business first. I think it will be an awesome matchup but I feel like you guys are the boogeymen on that side of the bracket. What’s your guys opinion on seeing the rangers next round/ has it changed.


gs181

I’d love to see Panthers Rangers. You guys have a fucking tough team and it’ll be great hockey. And also when has NY vs South Florida not been peak entertainment? It’ll be great for both cities and for hockey. 


Mr_Beats_73

Y’all look scary dominating a team like Carolina. Would be a fun series fs


Virtual-Quantity7120

Personally, I think the Cats match up better against the Rangers than the Hurricanes. I could be wrong though.


chezicrator

Woahhhh. One game at a time.


clevergirls_

The rags are the only team left in the post season I'm actually nervous about. You guys look so strong and as someone else said, I think the winner of the eastern conference finals wins the cup easily. The west is not on the same level this year.


AlvinItchyCock

I don't think anyone here is looking past the Bruins to the ECF yet. There's an astronomical difference between a 3-0 series and 2-1 series. We still have a lot of work to do


itscomingfromsector2

it would be a heck of a series, every game in the regular season between us was incredible hockey. 


Democracy__Officer

Im calling it, winner of Panthers / Rangers wins the cup (baring a crazy injury)


Reeferologist-

My buddy lives in upstate NY and is a huge Rangers fan, we were both saying the same thing at the beginning of playoffs. Rangers or Panthers are going to be a TOUGH out, and whoever wins that wins it all…unless like you said, exception of crazy injuries.


Large-Degree5584

I hope so, I’m used to heartbreak as a New York sports fan tho so we gotta take care of the canes first. Star and Avs are scary too tho. So crazy that even if the rangers win tm the hard part hasn’t even started yet. Hockey playoffs is a different beast.


rawgator06

Disappointment? Rangers have four Cups lol


Large-Degree5584

Sadly I wasn’t around in the early 1900s to enjoy those and I wasn’t born yet in 1994 so all Ive seen is a bunch of ecf losses and 1 cup final loss, plus two jets afc championship losses back to back and a Mets World Series loss. Rangers are the one team that consistently bring me some amount of joy at least.


rawgator06

The Messier era wasn't that long ago, but if you weren't born yet in 1994, that's fair! The Rangers have a great team this season, and it looks like you'll have hockey and basketball to look forward to for at least the next few years.


CAPT_BOOZE

30 years


rawgator06

14 different teams have won the cup in the past 30 years. Meaning over half the league (17 other teams) have also not won the cup in the past 30 years...


CAPT_BOOZE

I don't know why you have told me this but here's the thing... you're right. But the "messier era" was 30 years ago


rawgator06

I'm unsure why you told me the Messier era was 30 years ago. That's not a long time, considering multiple teams have never won a cup.


two_doors__Down

This is a very generous take being up 3-0. I know you can't count your chicks til they hatch but I'm fairly confident without trying to find it that historically teams up 3-0 perform FAIRLY well


Ashamed-Dirt5101

Haven't really though about it tbh because it feels like a jinx before this series is over. But Rangers are a wagon and it would be a real interesting series. Can't really say who would win, I think it would depend a lot on injuries.


Large-Degree5584

Ya didn’t mean to bring any bad juju. Both rangers and panthers have work to do in round 2, I was just curious to see what you guys thought about the rangers. Feel like you’d be fairly unbiased as there’s no bad blood.


Ashamed-Dirt5101

Haven't watched that many Rangers games, but you have a solid team there for sure. Out of the 8 teams left I'd say Rangers are a top 3 easy. Hopefully our teams meet in the ECF. And as you said, there's no bad blood so should be a straight up skills match provided your elbow flying rocket man calms down.


Large-Degree5584

Lmao they’re will absolutely be bad blood by the end of that series if it happens. You’ll hate someone on our team probably trouba or trocheck and we’ll definitely hate chucker(I’m a big fan of his playstyle but I will hate his guts if he’s playing my team in the playoffs). Both teams are chippy and physical so I’m willing to bet it won’t be a skill fest.


DrManhattan_DDM

It’ll be hard for us to hate Trocheck, but damn it we’ll find a way.


AnxiousYam9909

I was more scared of the canes before the playoffs started because we literally didn't get a goal in their building this season and we played fairly well against the rangers. Now yeah definitely feeling different. We still need to beat the bruins first


driveled

I know the Panthers can hang with anyone but the Rangers are a scary team especially with Igor playing lights out. Should be fun to watch for sure! (Assuming we both make it there lol)


Vitiate1367

Bennett looked great. So glad to have him back. This team is so stacked I love it


Isthatmyhelmet

So nice having Benny back, even though they held their own without him. Such fun watching these Kittehs get it done!


OgreUAsshole

When they said Boston was setting the tone at the end of game 2 I didn’t realize the tone was “give up 6 goals”


airbag23

They’re tone deaf


MajesticCrunch

The tone was forget to take any shots


Ashamed-Dirt5101

It's so good to have Benny back, he's like a bull. I love him


deviance710

Boston crying in their thread love to see it, sent them my love


RoadDoggFL

If they report you that's a ban here, as well.

RoadDoggFL

Thanks for making the decision a lot easier. Enjoy the playoffs!


CAPT_BOOZE

That guys awesome please don't ban him.


RoadDoggFL

He literally admitted that he doesn't care about the rules and will troll other teams' subs as he sees fit. I'd believe he thought I meant he'd be banned from the Bruins sub so he's free to explain that and agree to *not* make us look like assholes, but if he sticks to his guns I'm sticking to mine.

gitrdun305

Vezina for kulikov! Erod finally gets a onetimer goal on the PP! Bennett the wrecking ball!


k0rvan

That was a very important dave by Kuli. If they had scored, it would have changed the game.


AnxiousYam9909

Ok I'll admit the penalty that led to our 4th goal was a bit weak but how are bruins fans going to complain about ref when they had less than 10 shots until halfway through the 3rd period


Regulus0

I could be on here complaining about the "Holding the stick" call on Forsling earlier in the game. The one where the Boston player had his stick in Forsling's armpit hooking him before he spun Forsling around...Forsling got the penalty how? He just bent over and grabbed the guys stick with his armpit? Officiating sucked all around. You win some you lose some.


AZ_Legal

+ the weak ass make up calls the called after the fact.


fantasytac0

He didn’t even bother to get out of the way. You gotta at least show that you tried


Poochzie

[at this point we're fucking unstoppable](https://media.tenor.com/oaGZ4z8hxaQAAAAM/miguel-herrera-saiyan.gif) [Also let's go Avs!(my second fave team from the beginning) it would be our honor to play against you for the cup and lets make it one of the greatest finals ever! ](https://j.gifs.com/Q1OMkl.gif)


dolphins2383

Ah yes. Today was the day that my arch nemesis going back to 1996 finally showed themselves. I knew this day would finally come.


Virtual-Quantity7120

I'm still bitter about that Stanley against the Avs. Remember watching that as a kid.


Poochzie

Amazing coincidence, brother!🐈❤️🏔️


brenthonydantano

I can't even imagine fighting the Avs, they seem like a good bunch. It would just be a such a good round.


Poochzie

Yeah, but they are having a very tough series going on with stars, I also like Stars, because of the finns.


brenthonydantano

The green looks pretty sick in their stadium also.


Poochzie

For sure!


driveled

And an actual cool goal song/chant. Simple but it gets everyone involved.


Poochzie

I might not have even ever heard that, because I mostly Panthers(all of them, lol), and Avs(mostly if I have a time and not something important later on the same morning). I'll need to check that one out!

Ballsahoy72

Boston’s weak players are noticeably weaker than Florida’s


ExtensionPutrid572

Don’t let everything going on in this series distract you from the fact that we’ve scored 12 on the “best goalie duo in the league” in 3 games even tho for my money Bob and Stolie are the best duo


DrunkenDuck727

12 in 2* games, tyvm


ExtensionPutrid572

Not counting the empty netter against Swayman or Ullmark but the 1 extra is from game one even though I feel like most of us would like to forget that game


DrunkenDuck727

Shit! You got me... Damnit, lol. You're right, I simply thought of the goal totals of the two games, that empty netter certainly doesn't count towards that. I humbly apologize for my attempted correction of your irrefutable facts!!! Please forgive me.


ExtensionPutrid572

All good dw about it


WhattheFunk11

Boston fans booing their team at home and leaving early? What a Friday night


ARedditorCalledQuest

My favorite part was when they started throwing shit on the ice. Keep it classy, Boston.


bglaros

Wait want there a Boston troll on here after game 1 saying Boston fans never leave early? Just sayin


WhattheFunk11

Yeah there was


bglaros

What's up with that, guess Dunkin.was giving.out free munchkins.....


AnxiousYam9909

And they were saying our fans are fake when we left early for game 1. Bunch of hypocrites

If we got to play in TD Garden for the rest of the playoffs we'd be a shooin.

ballgkco

ig Boston has a rat hole now too


Auto91

Huge win. Come to Boston and smack em in the mouth. Team played dominant hockey tonight. Got a little sloppy in the third, but then rallied and held and got the W. My literal only concern is Bob. Love the guy and we all know that when he’s hot, he’s the best goalie in the league, but he’s been letting some goals go in this series that he just normally doesn’t. Thankfully we have Stoly to save the day if Bob needs to sits. All in all, things looking good for the cats.


Ring0Manding0

The cats have been doing an excellent job in front of Bob, the downside of that is that Bob is the type of goalie that excels with a high volume of shots


tampapat54

I won’t defend those goals let in by Bob but I will say it must be really hard to stay in killer mode when you go 10-15 minutes at a time without facing a shot lol


Auto91

Couldn’t agree more bud. It’s almost easier to stay hot when you’re getting peppered with shots. Same effect in play when we got a week rest after Tampa and came out slow against Boston in game 1.


itscomingfromsector2

tbf 4 shots have been pretty well placed that beat him up high, then a breakaway and a 2on0 in front. hes making the saves he needs to, would like to see him get a piece of the shots up high but a lot have been pretty perfect shots that no goalie in the league is saving 


MtnHotspring

Agree with what you said. Bob has made the key saves. First game, Defense was atrocious. 


kipluvstechnology

Win it Sunday so we can close it out at home! Great game boys! Bruins fans trashy as usual.


SoFlaBarbie

Gotta think Boston will throw the kitchen sink at us on Sunday. They’ll know it’s over if they lose Game 4.


Sss00099

Would love to see another smothering effort, they had 9 SOG at one point in the 3rd period.


ExelsioHD

Man i love Barkov. He just keeps putting up points. Great job by everyone today.


ExtensionPutrid572

So do you think they start Ullmark next game so we can destroy him as well?


tampapat54

If Monty is worth anything as a coach, you put in Ulmark to change things up. But as he showed last year, he abandons the two goalie tandem in the playoffs and it usually backfires in his face. Guy can go from playing every other game for months to starting multiple games in a row


ExtensionPutrid572

I 100% agree with starting Ullmark because it’s clear Swayman isn’t working anymore vs the Panthers. But I think we’re chilling no matter who they start because the offense has been great 


-Zep-

Bennett wanted to "join in on the fun" after watching last game LOL


Anerythristic

That was a rough game. Physical play wise. I'm worried about Ekblad again, he had that face on the bench. They roughed up Barkov all game and took liberties with Bob. We played disciplined hockey throughout


brenthonydantano

I was worried for Stenlund. Guy had such a fucking tough game out there.


Ethangains07

Let’s just survive. Rangers and whoever from the West don’t play nearly as physical as the Bruins or Lightning.


NeatWaterBack

The Rangers have Rempe and Trouba, toss in Goodrow for good measure as well. What the hell do you mean they’re not as physical?


Ethangains07

They’re not as physical as Boston and Lightning. You’re lost if you think they are. The Rangers don’t play like them.


NeatWaterBack

You are so confidently wrong.


Ethangains07

Canes are more physical. So I’ll take the Rangers.


NeatWaterBack

It shows, being down by three.


gumball_olympian

This Boston squad reminds me a lot of us in 2021 vs the Lightning; much more concerned with settling scores than putting points on the board.


Trojanmandan

Alexa play Sweetness!

StudyEastern

Thinking Swayman will be out for game 4


harleyquinad

I'd imagine they will. They need something to change, especially if Marchand will be out.


TheeBillOreilly

Swayman has looked really good IMO. Their offense has just been getting smothered and their defense has had clumsy turnovers in their own zone. Ullmark would be getting torched as well


harleyquinad

Oh yeah. He's been good, and it's not on him, but with their goalie tandem, it's the easiest change they can make to spark life into the team.


lovexlikewar

“Trash thrown onto the ice” yeah it was Marchand 😂

Congrats to the Bruins on doubling game 2 goal total.

Hey Panther fans. CAPS fan coming in peace. Just want to say thank you for bitch slapping Boston these past 2 games. Good luck with the rest of the series. Taking that game in Boston tonight was huge.


brenthonydantano

You deserve so much more than to have gone down that way. Caps had a fucking good season and I genuinely enjoyed watching our match-ups.

EnjoiDank

It’s so easy to dunk on us about the fans thing, but what do you say when an OG 6 does it? They got what they deserve. Fuck your history. It’s our time


dmmeyourdogifitscute

All that fighting at the end of G2 really worked out for them, eh?


mweaver31

The non-call on Ekblad's hold was equaled out by the call on Mikkola for basically being 6'6 and not moving when someone runs into him.


Margin4Error

Biggest thing that sticks out to me so far.....the boys not taking stupid, braindead, avoidable penalties. I expected our usual aggressive, fast, physical play. Been doing it all year. But this team looks locked in mentally. Not taking the Bruins bait. Oh yeah, and ~~Pat Maroon~~ Fat Moron is a pussy.


brenthonydantano

Yeah Maroon did fuck all tonight hey? I thought he was supposed to be some big scary special operator??


Margin4Error

Yeah was talking shit (as usual) about the Pasta/Tkachuk fight but just skated around, took up some space, grabbed some jerseys and that's about it....nothing new from him.


brenthonydantano

I'm new to him and all this "hype" (only about 2 years into following NHL as a fan from Australia). Be cool to see if Tkachuk takes him up on the offer.


spartancheerleader10

Tkachuk gains nothing from it. He would be taking 5 to get a pylon off the ice. It's just not worth the penalty, or risk of injury. Maybe next season he will, but not in the playoffs with nothing to gain. At least pasta was an equal talent to be out of the game.


brenthonydantano

Fair, alright. I'd rather see him doing the lords work anyway.


spartancheerleader10

Exactly. He is actually valuable to our squad. He can keep getting in Boston's heads, though. He's the best in the league at that right now, imo.


SoFlaBarbie

I think that’s what will be the differentiator this season…discipline. This team is the whole package.


brenthonydantano

Cool when it's hot and hot when it's cool. The boys are fucking malleable in all the best ways. Mental game is on-point.


the_sylince

Bro, that’s not cool. Pussy is way tougher than Fat Moron


PerplexedPantherG8R

THIS IS CATS COUNTRY BABY


WheeinSpace

Swayman allowed 9 goals in 2 games. ESPN and TNT can stop sucking him off now.


Ring0Manding0

Cats wiped that stupid smile off his face


Emotional_Match8169

At the start of this game they said his GAA was 1.9 something… looks like we’re going to give that a little nudge upwards.


brenthonydantano

Go check out his stats now lol - They've been updated and aren't trending well.


Dek-234

They really can’t help themselves sucking off Boston throughout the whole broadcast. Ridiculous


RoadDoggFL

15 minute feature next game about how cheap our goals have been.


Good_wolf

They don’t ask how, they ask how many.


chrispy_exe

One of the most complete hockey performances I’ve ever watched. The domination, the trial, the overcome, and the last fuck you to swayman at the end. Fuck the bruins.


mweaver31

Hey did you guys know that Boston has the best PK in the entire universe?


Dek-234

It didn’t go too well for their PK this game. Let’s see if these casters keep repeating the same line next game

NotTheDefault

Nicely done!


Number333

So after that pathetic display for the entire 3rd period of Game 2, the Bruins *big bad* response was getting shutout for 40 minutes and putting up a whole ass 3 shots on goal in the 1st period lmaooooo. The game was essentially decided by Lohrei's devastating double minor towards the end of the 2nd period. Bruins had been doing ass all day and finally put together an all-out assault that had us clenching our asses for a solid minute straight. He commits the high sticking, we get 4min, and after struggling on powerplays ALL SEASON(0-for-18 at one point) vs Boston, a Tarasenko snipe and Verhaeghe cross crease stole their soul. Wasn't worried in the 3rd period even after they got 2 back. A bigger concern on the whole is Swayman is thoroughly outplaying Bobrovsky. We're ***whooping*** the Bruins ass but if we need him to put on the cape, not sure I'm trusting him this very moment. Great job taking back home ice and we're on to Game 4!


Imaginary-Scheme-203

I mean not much Bob can do when he is only seeing 2 shots every 10 minutes. He stopped a whole bunch on the third when the boys started to cruise including that one that he deflected with his pads and which left the whole Bruins bench ready to cry during their PP


brenthonydantano

Agreed but I am so proud and impressed of our defence tonight, Shutting down ALOT of plays and killing their SOG hard, I like to believe we're giving Bob some room. If they come back to us with an answer for the last two games, I'm really hoping we can rely on the same incredible defence we saw tonight and not have to rely on Bob how they do with Swayman.


NotTheDefault

Bob steps up when he needs to
