Long way to go but my initial thoughts the morning after are:
1. The rangers were pretty bad/soft/poor yet only 1 goal down until 3 mins to go. They mostly handled everything the Cats threw at them.
2. Florida looks to have far better depth
3. How many calls did the refs miss last night? The standard of officiating has been pretty poor in the post season - the high stick and bloodied nose suffered by Lindgren was particularly egregious.
4. Igor wasn't at his best. You can give a pass for being mostly unsighted for the first but the second was a dreadful error.
5. PP was limb but PK strong.
6. ESPN might offer the worst production of any sport I follow. The commentators are simply dreadful, the camera cut aways to close ups are ill timed.
7. It's game 1 and there's a long way to go. So I'm not going to panic but Friday is absolutely huge.
8. But they have to find a way to spring that forecheck.
