No matter who you cheer for here, it’s fun to see Maclean have a sad after the game.

Wish I had been able to catch the last half. These teams are both a lot of fun. Florida are legit.

This is a series that I’m happy to see either team win it all this year. So, I am not anxious watching it. I’m just enjoying the hockey.

Gooo Panthers for another game!

We should have taken Verhaeghe instead of Hubey!

Yep, he was right. When the trade happened, I was a little surprised at how many people thought Zito was fleeced. I always thought it was a better deal for the Panthers than the Flames.

It really isn't.

Once Huberdeau bounces back and Weegar keeps playing the same way maybe you will stop.

The trade was really good considering Tkachuk had asked for a trade and had to accept the location.
Where the wizard went wrong was putting himself in that corner to begin with.

I still think even there he didn’t have a lot of choices. 3-5 years was going to be the deal.

The Tkachuk trade was good for the Flames given the circumstances. The trade was obviously great for the Panthers.

It's really only the Bennett trade that was terrible.

I think the consensus was in the long run, the Panthers would have the advantage due to the age of Chucky. If Huberdeau had gotten 80 points at least, combined with 40pts from Weeger(while playing a solid defensive game), it would have been a wash, even with Tkachuks’ season.

We know how the year played out, which is why now, it’s a fleecing. Huby can try to balance it out IF he gets back to carrying a line and gets a minimum 80 points a year. I have no worries with Weeger being solid.

I haven’t seen enough of Schwindt, but from what I heard, it wasn’t the greatest season for him either.

Days the guy who has Tkachuk and Bennett LOL.

Oh my god! Please stop litigating the trade over, and over, and over. I haven't heard a new take on the trade in 6 month. Just staaaaahhhhppp.

Talk about the series please. I can't take it anymore.
