    2022 NFL Offseason Thread: Looking forward Tua better future!

    Of course, 4 straight AFCCG's with 2 Super Bowl appearances and a win kinda speaks for itself...only lost in OT's of the AFCCG, too.

    I think at this point I'd have Mahomes at #1. At some point the old guard has to be surpassed.

    Bit of a blowout, but Tampa not being at their best isn't surprising given the layoff. Still if they win Game 2 they get their split. If Rangers can hold serve, it gets real interesting.

    Offense, offense, offense. also wtf was that offside at end of the 1st? The explanation was it was a tag up situation and by just "pushing" the puck into the zone guy could have enough time to get onside before the puck was touched again in the zone?

    I think Rags have a slightly better chance at beating Tampa just because Shesterkin could steal a series.

    Ashes of Creation

    That is all my biggest issue with the stuff they discuss, the ideas sound really interesting and potentially great, but trying to go in 4 billion directions at once almost screams that the core gameplay will suffer as a result.

    I'm pretty torn on the no goal call. You're allowed to intentionally direct the puck in with the skate, just can't have a "distinct kicking motion"...whatever the fuck they think that is.

    Some of the shit with him watching young Luke and having the flashbacks to young Anakin look very well done. This show could be really hit or miss, though. They could nail it, but it could also flop really, really hard.

    More high danger, but not more scoring chances overall, and Florida had edge in expected goals. All situations they had almost 4 expected goals for the game, saw on a Panthers board Vasy saved something like ~10 goals above expected for the series, top 5 for any playoff series in the shootout...

    Watt had a couple of amazing seasons for sure, but injuries kind of derailed any chance for him to have the prolonged dominance that we've seen from Donald. Also what stands out is that Donald is the guy putting up the sack and TFL numbers from the INSIDE, not from the edge. He gets double...

    Yeah that's pretty much the only guy I can think of who just did things from his position at the time that just no one else was even remotely close to. Could maybe squeak in a corner like Prime Time or Revis in their prime, but those were shorter. Lott or Ed Reed as a safety?

    Last few years, been debating who the best players in the league are, and it's literally like 3-4 QB's and him. And you can easily make the argument he's the best player, not just now, but potentially ever...at least defensively.

    Their cap situation isn't great, either. National broadcast just showed Vasy's stats over his last 7 elimination games. Filthy doesn't even begin to describe it. This is the best run by a goalie in playoff history.

    6 of the last 7 elimination games he's shut out the other team. The only game he didn't during this stretch was a 2-1 win over Toronto in Game 7 last round. Utter insanity.

    have to say they got them both right, though. Other than Tampa not getting called for a penalty on the 2nd one.

    "In its own way it may have even been the worst of the sequels". I guess if I had read this as "as far as originality goes, it was the worst of the sequel trilogy", then I would agree.

    I don't know, this feels like a lot of what came after souring it in retrospect. I left the theater after TFA thinking they had done an all right job making it feel like Star Wars (versus how I felt after seeing Phantom Menace), even if they just copied so many story elements. Calling it the...

    2nd goal against was pretty bad tonight, but overall Samsonov played pretty well in the series. Their talent/depth just way better. Losing Wilson was a killer, and it was just really hard for us to generate consistent offense. I say that, even though I think we actually had the better of play...

    Congrats to Florida, just too much for us in the end. Definitely feels like we blew it a bit in this series after being up 2-1, but a lot of that had to do with Florida's play and talent. They can go deep.

    Sill have to win it. Unreal. I kinda feel like we choked away the series already, but one thing I can't say about this year's Caps team is they didn't give a full effort.

    That was a really bad time for a weak goal against by Samsonov.

    It's a vet move, but yeah it's so stupid when they call both. It's just such obvious "game management" on their part not wanting to put either team on a PP.

    Or just call the holding the stick for the sneaky armpit move. But I agree the whole both embellishment and a penalty is stupid.

    Yeah I mean if they clear it off the line there, it's one of those crazy defensive plays we see over and over forever right? Tough to expect them to both be able to stop it like that. Two Game 7's already, hoping Edmonton can force another. Wild look cooked.

    True, but stuff like the 3rd goal against not being able to find the puck was painful. Also as much as Carlson whiffing on a puck causing a break the other way was responsible for the 2nd goal, in a big playoff game you'd like your goalie to make a big save on a breakaway there sometimes the...

    Not the first quick whistle in the series, happens all the time. Other than that just us collapsing. John Carlson might as well have had 2 assists for Florida tonight. Unreal. Credit Florida for not giving up and continuing to push pretty much all game.
