Honestly it's wild that people call for the jobs of coaches and players instead of just saying that florida is the better team. They've proven it time and time again. It's time to give them their recognition.
There's PLAYOFF teams and there's Stanley cup championship 🏆 team's plain and simple 🐀👊💪
Buddy moves like a crackhead
great teams get puck luck sometimes even when they dont need it
When did jump cuts become socially acceptable?
Guy looks stoned
Yeah looks like Florida and Edmonton in the finals again
No way this guy isn't on coke. Ever see his in game interviews? Jesus
And people were making fun of the Maple leafs at least the Maple leafs showed Florida that they can be beaten next year. You see a Florida never injured Toronto Maple Leafs goalie it would’ve been a different outcast.
Right now the Oilers look like the only team that has a chance against the Panthers and their streakiness makes me doubt even their chances.
Broken fits better. Not as bad as my Rangers….but, still, pretty broken.
dude is HIGH off the Miami coke.
Paul Maurice built a monster team that only 1 team has been able to beat in 3 years of playoffs
Florida is a better team but this also is another example of rod just can not adapt in the playoffs. This is every year with him- not saying better coaching would win them the series, but at least a game
Canes are way too soft.
Blake hit.on boards and not 1 player did anything
Canes coach looks like a Bond villain
I don’t think the panthers lose another game before hoisting the cup.
Tkachuk is so funny when he does that with his hand. 😂
Does he ever blink?
Canes went in thinking it was an easy 3rd round. Didn't dress to play. Too bad for Brind'Amour. Good coach
Florida is such a scum team, NO BODY else gets away with what tkatchuk did to aho, there was 5 penalties there and an instigator , aho did absolutely nothing.
Florida is a beast of a team. But Carolina is soft. Anytime they come up against a physical team they collapse
Brindamour was a great player himself tough but clean player
Go Panthers!!!
It’s amazing how this guy is surprised about everything. 😂😂😂😂😂
Carolina is good , but they don't have the goaltending or scoring to play so careless.
panther biggest challenge were Leafs,the rest is just a breeze.
Leafs took Panthers to 7. Maybe we were too hard on them.
Just a coincidence any team going against FL gets hit late and suffers new injuries every game right? Purely a coincidence.
Its not wat u do,UR DOIN IT FOR 3 GMS STRAIGHT.
Carolina in 7.
Buddy is hitting the zaps hard!!! Roddy needs to lock it down and put away the little nose bumper 😂😂😂
Canes blow… playoff structure needs to change… while Carolina has done its job to beat new jersey and Washington both who I think aren’t great… over matched and out coached.
Carolina know they're a hall pass for Florida 😂 they should say something or just take the abuse and do and say nothing again.
1-1 6-1😂
Leafs took the Panthers to a Game 7…. Canadian fans are sooooo hard on their teams. Often not warranted.
Oh… except for my Canucks. No shot at a Cup.
Matthew Tkachuk introduce me to nhl this feb during his fight in 4 nation and instantly followed him and liked him. So since he plays for Panthers i have been cheering for them. They are a wild and dominant team so far. I kinda feel bad for Canes as they are getting bullied in the ground. Maybe they will win one day.
Oilers will give them a run in the final
Leafs would have smoked the canes
They did that
Rod is completely lost. The Panthers have a way of doing that
I feel he could be a Diaz brother or cousin Close your eyes and listen to him talk
As a general hockey fan, both teams are good, but Florida is just better right now. I could still think the Canes can make, and even win, a cup. But if Florida stays this way, it'll be a tough road every time.
Panthers look unstoppable, team is hot at the right moment. Loaded team, so fun to watch. Just beat the canes and made it look easy. Going for the back to back!
