Hm. This is not going well.

You mentioned you had Demko.
Is this a regular season pool or a playoff pool? Or Both?
I'm curious as to which site you're using.

See, this ‘what a save’ stuff from the commentators on Vasilevskiy …

Nice pass and one timer, he had to move laterally and got square, but the shot did hit him in the torso.

So Lomberg gets buried by Sergachev into Vasilevsky and it's coincidental minors? What is Lomberg supposed to do there?

Edit, on replay he does sort of give the goalie a small shot.

One was the end of regular season - this is a new pool for POs with the same guys. Officepools.com. Seems to work pretty well. Drafting went smoothly. But one of the reasons Kucherov went unnoticed was that their lists were highly point based and he was still not listed as active.

Lomberg negates a power play. And now TB gives it back.

Again, this is the first time the refs are catching the dirt that the Bolts have been doing all series. The last one? Sergachev just randomly punches Vatrano as he goes by. glad they caught it. Just dirty and unnecessary.

Deflection in to Vasilevskiy’s pad. Commentators gushing.

I don’t like TB and these commentators aren’t helping

Gonna have to find a way to get rid of Yandle and Bob at some point.
I think the better play would be to bring in Ian Clark to rebuild Bobrovsky's game and get him back to his 2xVezina self for a few seasons.

Verhaeghe finally gets one past Vasilevsky. Needed that one last in this period to have a shot of a comback in the 3rd.

I wouldn't count the Panthers out. They rarely give up.

One thing I’ve notice watching this series is how dirty Seragchev is. He’s quickly been a player that’s easy to hate.

Nice goal by Carter V. He was a nice pickup for $1M

Kucherov and Driedger both banged up on that last play. Driedger takes the worst of it.

Weegar with a small bump, but Kucherov slams right into him.

commentators have this play totally and completely wrong. Kucherov is in the wrong here. He had the ability to skate to the side and went right into the goalie. Again, kinda dirty.

Commentary hates this penalty. I dunno. Kucherov didn’t make much of an attempt to avoid it.

They're in love with Tampa Bay players. Lomberg's similar play earlier was much more incidental and minor and they were screaming about him saying that it was intentionally dirty. Not sure how they're giving Kucherov a free pass on that one.

Again, the league WANTS Tampa to win.

If it was intentional why would he want to head butt a guy with a full faceshield?

Did you see how Perry tried to get out of the way of Tavares? It was too late to avoid contact but he attempted to avoid or lessen it

Kucherov didn’t put his weight on his right leg and try to spin away, didn’t make any attempt to change momentum

Little late to the party. 2nd goal, the half slapper was thigh high going quite wide. Super nice tip.

But as a goalie you can take that away. As soon as the shot is released and you recognize it’s that wide, you can slide back into your near side post, as the options are:

Probable: Puck goes past and bounces off boards behind net, back to that post, where you need to be anyway.

Less probable: guy reaches out and tips it back toward net, in which case the angle is so sharp and a post lean is the correct position anyway.

Bobrovsky didn’t seem to pick up the initial shot clean cause he was just starting a push toward the post as the deflection happened. Might not have mattered
as the puck bounced up off the ice.

So that’s a sign the goalie is not sharp that day. And why theres 5 goals on 14 shots even though you could argue he had little to no chance on any.
