GDT: 2022 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs

[Mr Rogers]

Leafs are a good deal better than the Panthers imo. It really is a mental thing with them

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

This is why a team like Florida won’t go anywhere. They are arguably the best on paper and metrics wise, but goes to show you need a lot more than that to win.

I really think it’s Colorado and Tampa in the finals

I don’t think they are, I think the Panthers just got Tampa on their A game where as the Leafs didn’t. Vasi didn’t really show up until game 7 against Toronto, Kucherov was sick half the series and Hedman was off. Now they’re firing on all cylinders again, specifically Vasi.

Pears has played 60 playoff games since the Ducks bought him out.

I think I have to disagree. The Leafs were forcing Tampa into a lot of uncomfortable spots. Florida hasn't done it nearly to that extent

Vasilevskiy is awesome. What a player

 

[Mr Rogers]

if that's it for Jumbo, what a fitting end to his career

 

[Sean Garrity]

Vasilevskiy is awesome. What a player

Wanted him to get the 50 save shutout.

I find it amazing that Jon Cooper has never won the Jack Adams.

It kind of proves that the league is more enamored with a coach that exceeds expectations than one that really does win when it counts.

Florida was a pretty stacked team and getting swept out would seem to indicate Burnette really didn’t exceed expectations.

Games over no Binnington means no way the blues win.

 

[dracom]

seems like Tampa's hardest competition coming out of the East is actually gonna be Toronto. They'll have an easy path to the SCF and probably beat whoever survives between Colorado/Edmonton/Calgary.

Manson or no Manson, I just don't understand how anyone could root for Colorado. They're just loaded with utter shitbags.

I love MacKinnon and Rantanen lol

Shitbags.

 

[Sean Garrity]

Blues making the most of their opportunities, but jeez Colorado can be so dominant.

 

[bsu]

We got a game apparently.... Why don't the Avs just keep Shooting Husso so shakey.

When you trade for Cogliano, you are announcing to the league that you are goon central.

 

[Mr Rogers]

Even if they lose, the Blues have been able to solve the Avs quite a bit and force them into doing stuff. Will provide some valuable video for the next teams up.

I'm not even sure I get the joke.

Cogliano - but he's my only reason.

Edit: And Kadri is making me waver on that.

 

[Sean Garrity]

That's backbreaking for the Blues.

 

[bsu]

Legendary all around performance by Kadri tonight. Literally living rent free in every aspect.

Legendary all around performance by Kadri tonight.

he's gonna get absolutely paid this off season lol

[Anaheim4ever]

Maybe Toronto should have kept Kadri lol
