For our new readers and members, the Top Six Minutes is a continuation of the discussion in the game thread. We try to keep it light and entertaining. Full recaps are up the morning after every game.
First Period
- Oh god those mustaches…please no more closeups
- Out of the blender and on to the ice. The new lines look pretty weird.
- What a shot Pacioretty!
- A net related call…and it’s not Gallagher?
- Byron is terrifying, the Panthers should be afraid.
- Carey seemed rather emotive after letting in that second goal. He was not impressed./
Second Period
- David Desharnais! This in no way changes my opinion of that line though.
- That was an aggressive power play.
- Galchenyuk can do incredible things with zero space.
- Announcers dedicated three full minutes to discussing Jagrs youthfulness.
- Two minutes, two incredible Price saves.
- Plekanecs rough luck continues. /
Third Period
- Paul Byron proves himself to be just as dangerous as anticipated.
- 3rd period, tied game, Panthers on the penalty kill, and they have a breakaway, but we have a Carey Price.
- It’s refreshing to see a team ice the puck more than us.
- Habs remain unbeaten at home in regular time./
Overtime
- Bad time for a broken stick.
- Great time to have Carey Price.
- Terrible time for a broken stick!
- …Habs remain unbeaten in regulation at home, but they lose the final battle 4-3. /
