you know, if it does end up being Carolina and Vegas in the final here, like it's going to be really interesting to see how that plays out because as much as the teams are different, it has the same feel.
Like they play four lines, they've rolled them and it's four check after four check after four check and it's relentless pressure and they play really, really well.
Both teams do.
You know, I think that
for Carolina, the way that it can be a different guy all the time, and the fact, well, you know what, I'd say for both teams, for Vegas and Carolina, that a lot of times when you're watching the game, whether either team's playing in their series, like, you actually have to look at who the players on the ice are.
You know, like, of course you see when...
when Eichel's out there, but you do have to check the number because they play the exact same style.
Of course, there's some better little plays being made and all of it, but the forechecking style and the pressure that they can have and the way that they're able to hold possession in that offensive zone, both teams do that extremely well and they're physical.
Yeah, and I think that's where, you know, like it's a bit more of an old-school feel to the series, right?
Like Carolina, you know, not that any team should be, but they weren't concerned that they lost Game 1.
They knew that the work they put in there and the work they were going to continue to build or put in was going to build the series for them.
And you can see it now.
Like all those big hits that you saw in Game 1, 1, 2, 3 β
on the four check and all of that, like guys going back for pucks.
Now there is that split second of hesitation and it doesn't help that because the four check is so aggressive and, and they're on top of it and in position all over the place.
When those guys do go back for it and their shoulder checking, you can see them looking for their outlet.
There's nothing there.
Either there's a Montreal guy, an extra guy stretching or,
Because, again, they're not being able to find any offense, so now they're trying to cheat in some different ways and find that extra jump.
So those guys going back, options aren't there for them.
