Abby Game Talk Playoffs 2025 Edition

I was starting to get that sinking Canucks feeling, like you guys did with the bad luck in overtime on Saturday.

Feeling intensifies...

Manny should have inserted McWard in for Mancini for tonight's game imho.

Mancini is really tanking his value.

Recent blunders clearly weighing heavy in his mind. Not good news to show this kind of mental fragility in such important games. We saw the raw tools and may've overestimated his potential. Still can't write him off tho but good thing Kuds is still showing well. We don't need all these kids to hit. Just a few.

I thought he had earned a scratch even before tonight's blunder. McWard has gotta be wondering what is going on here.

This is the worst patch of ice I think I have ever seen. Players are falling like bowling pins out there.

That centre ice logo looks dirty. Like the ice is wearing thin or something. Weird.

Yeah it looked like that earlier in the series too. Just awful conditions.

I was going to mention Nathan Lafayette for a flashback because of the goal post. Smyl on Vernon is another good heartbreak. When we thought we lost Game 1 in OT with that faceoff fiasco, my immediate flashback was Lars Lindgren shooting the puck into his own net with seconds left to keep us from beating those mighty 80's Oilers. Let's be honest we can ring off a hundred examples to recall with this franchise .

Sasson hit two goal posts in OT now among a many other in regulation time (Sammy hit a few). This baby should be over. But nope, it's gotta be so Canuck to have a highly disappointing and invisible Puljujarvi bounce a puck in off not one but two Canucks players from behind the net after the Baby Nucks dominated the entire OT.

If/when we get it done tonight, think we need to beach the whale and go full Johnny immediately for both clubs. Keep the same jersey for both teams (love the home greens)..just flip the A to a V on the sleeves to differentiate and the big club can keep the skate blacks as the 3rd jersey. So done constipated whale.

We absolutely need to return to full Johnny.

3-2 Abby after two periods.

Out of curiosity, is it normal for the AHL finals to finish after the NHL finals?

Out of curiosity, is it normal for the AHL finals to finish after the NHL finals?

Pretty much every year, yeah. I can't remember an instance when they didn't.

Charlotte time out. Kahkanen on the bench, net empty. 3-2 Abby with 2:30 left.
