[Troy McClure]

Aaaaand here comes the Bon Jovi ...

Play a song with some confidence behind it.

[Troy McClure]

And now Dunn hurt Hintz…

[The Frugal Gourmet]

Make no mistake, they will pull the goalie, and they will score a goal with the extra man, we just need to get that 5th empty netter.

Seattle better not score again.

Pavelski needs the gwg for us to win

Knives is wanting to get Robertson a chance to score.

And his favorite player gets to go.

Seriously though Faksa has had a great game.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

And now Dunn hurt Hintz…

I love how interference only ever exists for the first period of hockey playoffs.

[Math]

Faksa. Whatever happens, this game is won only because Faksa scored. Not because we lead by three with 3:17 remaining.

[5minmajor]

Faksa REALLY wants to be one of the game’s stars

[Knives Out]

I honestly thought that Faksa was gonna miss there for a second LOL.

And I hope that we see Martin Jones in Game 6 ...

they're commenting on the leadership of benn

We now have a 78% chance of winning this series.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

We now have a 78% chance of winning this series.

But if we lose game 6, we probably go back to about a coin flip.

[dyhp]

Is Roope ok?

I’m pretty sure they still play a hockey game.

[The Frugal Gourmet]

That was probably our best game of the series from a discipline standpoint.

When the game got close again, Dallas at least started playing better again.

This thought is tampering my excitement.

Yeah we won't know until later and even then we might not know

[Archangel972]

Is Roope ok?

I hear he has another case of diarrhea.

The whole top line didn’t play another shift, but they didn’t need to. The game was mostly over.

It may have only been one of those hits that hurt at the time.

[5minmajor]

Nice start but I'm worried this feels a bit like game one

Seattle has mostly been the better team this game, definitely have more chances in the first period. The Stars can't rest easy here.

I realize I’m older than most(everyone) here but when I was a kid All my different coaches taught us that it “didn’t matter how you played the game, winning was all that matters.”

I’m paraphrasing there.

[ToddM]

Seattle looked like *poo poo*, really. I'm actually amazed we scored 5 goals in a game where we had roughly 40+ unforced turnovers in our own zone. Hakanpaa and the entire Faksa line in particular were soooooo *Dang all Get out* weak on the puck, making the softest possible "clears". Against a real team that *poo poo* would be 8 goals against, but Seattle forwards are really not very good.

[dyhp]

Seattle did seem gassed in the 3rd.

Ok Boomer

[ToddM]

Also, I really hope some idiot GM is watching these game and salivating over Faksa. The broadcast is making him out to be a hero when he makes like six good plays in 11 minutes while getting just absolutely buried in his own zone all game.

My hope is that maybe he left his shift early because he was so far behind the play. I'm sure we will get a vague answer from Pete and we wont really know till Sat morning skate around.

Even if his arm is being amputated right now, they’ll still send him out of the dressing room with a fake arm in a sling. We won’t know anything until pregame warmups for sure.

Full credit to the Stars. They made the most of their chances in the first period even though they were outplayed. Then, I think the Stars got stronger and stronger as the game went on while Oettinger was quite sharp.

[Knives Out]

That’s a good bit, but it’s muddying the waters LOL.

[Archangel972]

By "treatment" they mean Imodium.

[Knives Out]

Don’t worry, y’all. We all saw how seamlessly Seguin slotted into the top line last series ...
