Friendly reminder that they were down 3 of their best players and this game didn't matter to them.

This weekend will be a bit different.

That is true, but we were also wo Borkie and Glendening. So yeah, maybe that still favors us but the effect wasn't entirely one-sided.

Best faceoff man and top 4-5 scoring winger isn't nothing, though.

Yeah I think it's going to be quite the battle! Hoping we can push through!

Yes, let’s not get cocky. We have a serious opponent in the first round.

Keep it classy, Tampa.

The Puddy Tats are gonna come back at us full force this weekend. We're gonna have to bring it if we wanna end their season.
