Didn't Talbot have like a 5 game streak of 3+ goals given up coming into this one too?

He wasn't looking great in the last week or so of the season. Stood on his damn head today though!

Kucherov coming back and potting two so far is just.....I don't know

Bull****

Out for the year so they can LTIR him but he's magically healthy enough to play right away. They are $17 Million over the salary cap one game after the regular season ends. Just a total load of crap.

Yeah not a fan on LTIR when it’s used like that. We used it on Erik Johnson but sounds like he’s had a concussion this entire time and if he is back it may not be unless make it deep in the playoffs. 

While it is within the rules it’s a bad look when he’s healthy and ready to go game 1. Hopefully it gets changed but this is Bettman so.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Johnson alright, but I hope he waves his no-move clause so Seattle can pick him up this off-season. Timmins has really stepped up this year and between him, Makar, Girard, Byram, and Graves, I think we are in really good shape moving forward without Johnson. I will admit that having a bigger physical defender would be good for the playoffs though with how small the rest of our defense is though.

I'm glad we overpaid for Pietrangelo, trotted out incomplete lineups for half the season, and totally neglected Cody Glass' development just to not be able to score in the playoffs once again. Fleury deserves better, give your goalie some damn support.
