Losing hagel hurt us. Failing to convert on the pp is our undoing. Getting one shot on goal during a five minute pp is unacceptable and ultimately what cost us the game
If Hagel wouldn't have started none there wouldn't have been none. He hit Barky illegal, he had it coming. Yall love it when you are issuing the hits but don't like it when you are getting belt to ass. Deal with it.
Hagel drew first blood. You don't do a bad hit on a captain or star player and get away with it. He knew it was coming. Hagel is no saint.
Change title! Game Four not three!
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have said this in other channels. Suspensions tends to be based on whether it took a player out of the game or not. This is why Ekblad will likely get suspended and why I don't believe Mikkola will (even though I think his was dirtier).
Two very physical teams one built for the playoffs the other alittle bit more finesse ill take my south fla very day
Kuch is a ghost 👻. Our Defense sucks and we can’t even tally a single shot on a 5 minute power play. Hagel is out game 5. Who is going to step up?
FAFO is all I have to say for Hagel. His hit was the dirtiest of them all. Should Ekblad get a one game suspension? sure. But you guys keep acting like Hagel didnt basically target Barkov.
I’m a bolts fan, but reality is Tampa was never going to beat Florida unless they get a few breaks and lucky. Florida is better, deeper, more aggressive, Maurice out coaches Cooper, and kuch is a regular season stat sheet stuffer. Florida outplays Tampa every time it matters. Bolts would probably beat any other team, but the cats have their number.
