How about fuckstick. Is that better?

I'll note that you don't like him. If you can find someone with bigger social media outreach posting themselves at the game and supporting the Stars then go ahead.

Lucky this isn't worse.  Avs have missed the net on a bunch of chances.

I could say lucky it's not tied or better, for them. Those two goals were flukes and we're playing well. I don't doubt we push in the 3rd.

We’ve actually had as many (or more) good looks/scoring chances. Just haven’t converted.

What again does Rantanen bring? Stars don’t have enough speed. 

Enjoy that $12MM/year cap hit. Guy that plays no defense and scores primarily on the power play and empty neters.

Totally outplayed, thoroughly shitty showing. Going to be a boring spring/summer for Dallas sports fans.

Haven't logged back in since before game 1 but strongly disagree with this take.  I think that was easily the best we've played in over a month.  We had some terrible puck luck, particularly the first goal, and you can't take a double minor even if it was the result of Mackinnon apparently just call his own fucking penalties because nobody saw it (it was bizarre in the arena as it took a while to figure out WTF was even going on) but I thought we played them pretty even lopsided final score aside.  Their goalie made some great saves when we were pushing to tie it up leading to the breakaway goal on the other end. That's hockey.  MoneyPuck had us at 3.84 to 3.64 expected goals and 59% chance of winning in the "deserve to win O'meter".   The one thing that concerns me is not finishing great chances.  I still haven't seen replay but one that jumped out at me from the stands was a Benn look where he could have elevated and buried it but shot it right into the body.  That kind of thing is what hurt us last playoffs where we left way too many goals out there (all 3 series).

On to tonight.  I don't feel great about the series absent a Miro miracle as I don't think Harley can hold up playing that many minutes every game but do feel good about grabbing game 2.  I'm pretty sure I'm 2-0 this season not drinking at all, so probably going to try to keep that streak alive for a 9PM start on a Monday after a holiday weekend!

Interesting stats heading into Game 2 tonight:

  • Otter is 0-8 all-time in Game 1's
  • Otter is 5-2 all-time in Game 2's
  • Stars have been outscored 23-6 after the second period during the current eight-game slide

I think we'll get an engaged performance from the Stars tonight. Absent some bad luck, I expect a win in G2. I still think the Avs win this series and I think they'll beat Winnipeg in R2 to face Vegas in the WCF.
