from George Richards of Florida Hockey Now,
On Saturday afternoon, as the Florida Panthers were on their way to a Game 3 loss to the Washington Capitals, fans of the team flooded social media with messages of gloom and doom.

“Hopefully mad,” coach Andrew Brunette said when asked how he hopes his team responds to the loss. “I think the story so far is that they have out-competed us, out-willed us in every puck battle and in every area. We’re going to have to figure it out here.”
