00:00and william nylander's been playing great uh they've got this backup goalie playing great

00:06they got domi playing great and the bottom line is the panthers aren't playing great i mean i

00:11thought they looked better last night and they had the 2-1 lead on the marchian goal

00:16early 15 seconds into the second but then they gave it right back right yeah and we've had no

00:24time scotty and it's a pleasure to see you again my man but we've had no time to celebrate

00:29any lead in this series toronto has done an amazing job of bouncing back rather quickly

00:36in this series uh and but let's face it in game one the panthers didn't show up in the first period

00:42they showed up in the second and third period but uh the lack of effort early cost them and the

00:49turnovers keep costing them if we're being honest turning the ball over at uh at center ice and then

00:55having these two-on-ones it's just uh once again it bit us last night but you know what it says

01:01scotty in a seven game series that it really doesn't start until a uh till a road team uh can

01:07win a game and uh we'll see how that works out in game three for him so when you saw him last night

01:13pull that goalie uh with you know babrovsky with three minutes left and they had that extra attacker i

01:20mean to tell you they put it on toronto i mean i cannot believe that that extra attacker and that

01:30three minutes that they had i i just can't even fathom they couldn't score because it seemed to me

01:35like they had about 10 chances and they just couldn't put it in it's just like it was like there

01:40was uh teflon in front of the uh you know the goal they just couldn't put it in and i it actually blew

01:48my mind i thought they were going to score for sure yeah well and and listen they had plenty

01:53opportunities not just in that that final two minutes scotty but they had plenty of opportunities

01:59uh in the second uh in that third period but give credit i mean joseph wall give credit to him uh he

02:05stood on his head in that game yesterday he's going to be the goalie i don't think stallers is even

02:10traveling here to sunrise florida so he's the guy for toronto but again that's one thing

02:17to win some games at home we'll see how he does here on the road in game three so the next two are

02:25in sunrise what are people saying down there about the champs being in trouble they are a little uh

02:34they're a little they're concerned here and as well they should be i mean they they basically just

02:39manhandled tampa bay in five games right scotty and everyone thought for sure tampa was the team that

02:45was going to represent the east when it was all said and done they manhandled them and we saw them

02:50have trouble with ottawa the leafs now all of a sudden we're down two games and it feels like an

02:56eternity since we've uh we've been down like this but there is optimism because we've seen this team

03:03do it before scotty and uh they have to make the adjustments they're elite defensively i still give

03:10bobrowski the edge and goal even though he's given up nine goals here in two games i think it's the

03:16defense of the florida panthers that has to show up in game three

03:20you
