Around the League '15-'16: The Final Countdown

[TonySCV]

I don't buy that, a lot of you guys are underestimating the Sharks this year. They're hungry and have quietly been one of the best road teams (if not the best) in the league. Get their act together at home and I really don't want to play them again in a best of 7, especially since their starter is our ****ing old backup, and beating the Kings is pretty much the biggest item on their to-do list.

Nashville isn't a pushover either though. Lot of competition this year, unlike last...

Sharks have worse goaltending than Nashville (sorry Joner), and a worse defense.

Sharks D is actually really solid, and their forward depth is easily better and more consistent than Nashville. I could even argue Rinne hasn't been great in the playoffs, but we haven't seen Jones yet either.

Bottom line is neither one is going to be a cakewalk.

3-0 quacks after 9 minutes.

Hiller doing his old team a favor

The Ducks Round 1 and 2 match-ups last year were NOT hard. A little luck helps too.

Might've been the easiest 2 rounds to the WCF in NHL history. Basically they played two wildcard teams and it showed. The Jets choked at every opportunity when they got the lead , and Calgary's magic died .

Which mean we're in trouble Thursday.

The Kings got a bug in their butt when the Ducks took over first last time. Hoping for a repeat.

I'm sure Sutter won't care. He'll put Cliffy and King on the top line just to see what happens and take the loss.

Spoiler, Kings either scratch and claw for a one goal win or they lose by one goal. We know how they don't "get up" for these type of games. See the Oilers games as an example.

I expect a very angry GDT tomorrow if we don't score more than two goal and get beat.

I'd be more upset if they allowed 3+ goals again and the usual suspects have another crappy performance.

I'm kind of waiting for them to show a pulse in one of these remaining games where Sutter has openly stated that he's looking at individual performances after they clinched.

 

[The Night King]

Kings have a very winnable schedule remaining, but it'll be difficult anyway. The ducks game is an automatic loss.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

I wouldn't be too shocked at this point if we just lost out the rest of the schedule.

 

[Minor Boarding]

3-0 quacks after 9 minutes.

The best defense in the NHL according to some smug Flames fans last year...

Put up a snowman on the elite defense. How about that Dougie Hamilton and Brodie with a -5 combined.

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

I would be shocked if you guys dont get at least 4 goals on this team.. They are horrible defensively..

But when will they get the respect they deserve for making the playoffs?

We've lost the Raccoon!!! Just hang in there!!! Only 10 more games to go.

Aaaaaaand there is the kiss of death.

can they play Hiller again not Ortio? Team is much better in front of Ortio

Prepared to be shocked.

Incoming 'best game Calgary has played all year'.
