And also the fact that he seems to be avoiding holding onto pucks almost like he's afraid of contact. That's pretty far from what his normal game is. Right now he is mostly getting the puck and immediately flinging it somewhere on low percentage plays. Can only count a handful of times where he's held onto a puck in the corner for more than a few seconds at a time.

It is really agonizingly obvious that Sid can't bear being slashed and is avoiding it at all costs

One thing about Mitch Marner being out is that it’s now obvious that Jason Spezza is better than him on the powerplay.

N: in a week where we’re still missing Barkov, Duclair, Forsling and 4 others that we’d happily start on most nights the Panthers still went 3-0, including over 2 teams who were in the top 10, and put a ridiculous 147 shots on goal in those games. V: this is the year, baby. Watch this team when they’re not playing your fave, and have a good time.

You're neglecting to mention that all three were comeback wins, two of them being comebacks from down 4-1 to win in regulation. The Panthers are so fun.

I’ve learned to not even stress about the score going into the third these days. It’s nice that we can pull out the old style cardiac cats wins we used to have to do at full strength, when we’ve got a team that should in theory be eating a bunch of losses right now.

Wow, who would've thought that two wins over equally lovely teams wouldn't be enough to calm an angry fanbase of a capped out team with zero prospects that was promised the playoffs but two months into the season are 29th overall? Keep tossing those jerseys folks.

Why does the NHL wait so long to update their standings? Their app says last updated at 7pm yesterday, before most of the games ended. Seems dumb.

The 'new' look lines for the Pens definitely provided a better visual balance. Carter/Zucker on the spreadsheet had a goal against and were the 2 worst xGF players, however this gets a decent * caveat with them taking on the JT Miller and Boeser for the majority of the night. Something to keep an eye on then if opponents keep trying to take advantage of those 2. They also combined to create a breakaway and I thought their d zone work was pretty solid...Zucker made an excellent play when covering for Dumo early in the 2nd. Obv I'm going to be mega biased...and it's also 'only' Vancouver anddddddd both 5v5 goals were from Jake and Sid, but I thought Kapanen with Blueger looked good. I'd probably swap ZAR and McGinn tbh though it doesn't matter too much. O'Conner with Simon was pretty good...the coaching staff seems to be doing something extremely specific with Matheson lately and *for now* have managed to make him not do insanely stupid things constantly. Jarry rolls on. Would like very much for Sullivan to stick with these lines for Monday's game and moving forward for a bit. Just missing the 5v5 finish.

Are the NHL's broadcast partners consolidating feeds now? I definitely saw a flash of an NBC Sports California graphic prior to the start of tonight's game on Bally Sports and saw the NHL logo that pops up as a transition between replays and live action against one of the Canadian teams recently..
