I love Marner, but one of the things that annoys me the most about his game is his tendency to stop up and look for a pass. He's got wicked hands, explosive speed, and a really underrated shot. Why doesn't he utilize that to his advantage more? He could be much more Nikita Kucherov in his execution if he tried. If he becomes a dual passing / shooting threat, the league better watch out

This is exactly how I wanted them to play all series. Smart, cautious, be patient and wait for your chances. You are going to get them from Florida, just be very patient for the right time. Give them nothing and they will have a lot of trouble scoring.

B**** move from Montour there. Fake tough guy Sam Bennett is no better. Love to see Mitch getting involved like that with Tkachuk who is also a big tough guy throwing punches with his mitts on. Panthers are losers on the scoresheet and on the ice

What are the chances of Montour getting suspended for boarding?

None of the players are. This was an adjustment by Keefe, finally! It very well be too late but this is how they should have played all series.

I would fukcin love it he was good to go for Game 5 but probably wishful thinking. We could certainly use a little more offensive pop in the lineup.

He never really was the problem was big 4 werent producing and looked meh. Well tonight they did and all looked good in their own ways

JT and Matthews had their chances, that JT drive to the net was gorgeous wish he scored

Marner and Nylander got the goals and made some nice plays. Marner threw his weight around and made nice blocks

Gimmie more of this and hopefully Matthews and JT start getting goals

Ok, I didn’t watch much of the game (May is a very busy time of year on the farm) but from what I saw they looked a lot better. But I’m not getting my hope up until after the 4th win if it happens (which I still am doubtful it will but would absolutely love to be proven wrong). Let’s do this 3 more times boys!
