Second Line Center

Wooooo hoooooo!

Still stand by this but not sure I’d trade him. I know near everyone could be had in the right trade. So can’t rule it out. His game is emerging as the games are turning into playoff type tight ones. That means a ton - plus we might be a bit younger next year. And can see him on a line with those guys. Give me guys that have overcome adversity and excelled. I want them as part of the core.

Props to every single one of you that posted early about how this was going to be bad today. Reverse jinx worked. Props.

Losing a very hard fought 2-1 game against what’s looking like last year’s version of the Panthers on the road - with the youngest team in the league and a goalie who was in college 3 weeks ago - yea I’m not too disappointed. Like I said and I truly believe it - a few good moves and we’re a Stanley Cup contender. We’re going to be the next Tampa Bay or Boston Bruins of the last decade. Our turn.

2024 Stanley Cup Champs I don’t want to hear jack about you gotta make the playoffs first - the people that will tell you that are the ones that thought this was “too big a moment” for Levi.

Took too long DG

HELP THIS KID OUT SCORE!!!

DG should have seen earlier Mitts has juice and shuffled him more with Tage because he looks gassed.

Mitts should have more ice time Shuffle em up DG

NJ up 3-0

Ridiculous

The whole team is locked f***ing in.

Let’s go!!!!

I appreciate fan concern about “too soon” or whatever. We already determined he was fit to be thrown into the fire - was the Ranger game, debuting at home, walking in to all the hype - did that come without pressure? We all saw their response after the Skinner goal. If this team has the mental toughness to win a Cup, you absolutely play this kid in an April 4th game against the Panthers while we’re 5 points out of the playoffs and don’t think twice. We lose, we lose. Learn from it and move on. It will not be because of Levi. And I’m confident this staff knows what he can and can’t handle - and I think there is very very little he can’t handle. He will be fine if we don’t win. If we lose it better be because Florida was just a better team not because we were gripping the sticks too tight and feeling a bit of pressure. But we beat them with Levi? I’m just going to say the benefits of that far far far outweigh any concern over whether or not it’s too much too soon for him. This game is absolutely nothing compared to games he’s going to play in.

There is nothing to consider here play Levi.

Wooooo hoooooooo! Whiskey it is.

Props to DD for not saying anything what felt like a good 10 seconds - he’s been excellent this year. Some PBP would just keep talking Dan let the crowd roar take over that was awesome. Sometimes less is more.

Love how he came out immediately there

Is this not on ESPN plus!??

Is Ales Kotalik available?

Terrible.

That’s not a penalty

Freaking New Jersey.

Matthews has 11 shots on goal thru 2 periods.
