FLA vs CAR: Eastern Conference Final, GM 2 |

Been tied up with work the past couple days, so going to keep it short…
What can you say about that marathon of a Game 1?
Awesome!
The high octane, back and forth action with two stellar goaltending performances locked in a seemingly endless battle was as good as it gets. It had the big time drama that close games have, complete with a heart-stopping recalled goal in OT…
The best part? It ended with a Florida victory.
There’s a mountain of interesting stats from Game 1 that you should check out if you haven’t had a chance yet. Here are a couple that are pretty wild to me.
I would expect some fatigue on both sides of the ice tonight. After all, it’s not often you play a little over two games in a single night just a mere day ago.
I also expect another close game. Both of these teams are far more similar to one another than I thought. The difference (edge) for the Cats could come down to staying out of the box — a recurring theme all postseason with this group. Carolina scored both of their goals on Thursday night while on the man advantage.
Have to be smarter out there, guys.
