Summary
The Panthers mainly want to be better at maintaining their pace on the offensive attack and controlling the puck.After the Panthers scored a League-leading 4.11 goals per game on their way to winning the Presidents' Trophy as the NHL leader in points with 122 (58-18-6) during the regular season, they have had trouble utilizing their skill and speed against the Capitals' forecheck and structure through the neutral zone.Florida got off to a good start in Game 3, taking a 1-0 lead on Jonathan Huberdeau's goal 2:45 into the first period, but Washington gradually took over control of the game and its pace."That's just playoff hockey," Panthers defenseman Ben Chiarot said. This is going to be the most desperate game of the year and they're going to be playing as hard as they can, and we've got to match that intensity."Teams that take a 3-1 lead hold an all-time series record of 296-30 (90.8 percent) in a best-of-7 NHL playoff series, including 5-1 in the 2021 playoffs.Here are 3 keys for Game 4:The Capitals top players were their best players in Game 3 with Alex Ovechkin and John Carlson each having a goal and an assist, Nicklas Backstrom and Anthony Mantha each having two assists, and T.J. Oshie scoring a power-play goal. Florida needs Bobrovsky to bounce back, and to do a better job getting to Washington goalie Ilya Samsonov.After stopping all 17 shots he faced after replacing Vitek Vanecek to begin the third period of Game 2, Samsonov stopped 29 of 30 shots in his first start of the series in Game 3."I think we've got to make it harder on their goaltender, getting more screens, getting more shots and just make it a long night for him," Panthers forward Anthony Duclair said.The Capitals have been the better team on special teams through the first three games.
