The conference semis are going to be interesting in the East with Tampa, Boston, NYI, and Philadelphia all playing well.

Colorado off to a quick start against Phoenix 2-0 is the 1st period. Colorado was my pick to go all the way when the bubble tournament started.

Like many have said how the heck did the Preds lose to the Yotes. They have been awful in this round. Sheesh. Should have been swept but got in a lucky win.

The Jackets fought valiantly. Pretty awesome series to be honest. I hope there are others that are just as good.


It was a great series, high pace, intensity, and I love the Jackets. Will miss Seth Jones. But they will improve their offense over the off season and be back. They are such a hard team to play against, like stick handling in a phone booth.
 
FLyers post season power play now 1-30, the 'couturier to giroux to the point to Provy and shoot," is stale and everybody with video knows that is what they are going to do., end up blocking it and going the other way or shooting it dow nthe ice.
Provorov is a good young d with a bright future, but lacks the IQ to quarterback a PP. He shoots, period. He doens't konw to move, east or west, etc.

Local media saying 'Giroux has to get his offense going'
Not likely in the playoffs.
thru Game 4, he has 1 goal, 5 assists in last 19 playoff games.
Not a money player, nor does he have impact shifts for the most part.

Love Myers, a top d in the making. Size, speed, skill, reads the zones/defense well. Just needs seasoning. THey need to get him signed, he is half of their 1st pairing with Provy

Not sure what the situation is with Nolan Patrick, Chronic migraines have prevented him from playing. Something he's suffered with since juniors. He's only played 26 games in 2 yrs, and his contract is up. It's a shame, a chronic illness like that, is hard to gage as far as his future.

The Flyers at the end of the game reminded me of when the Ducks would lose. Just gooned it up, cheap shots all over the place, especially after the EN goal. That crosscheck to Gallaghers mouth has to be called, especially when the ref watched it happen. I mean , you can't call a major penalty late in a 1 goal game, right?


The in the glass guy said it best, " there's so much blood on the ice, it looks like a homicide"

The Flyers invented this stuff. It's unreal how low the glass is though.

I feel for the lad, I really do. He’s a real talent and the prognosis seems really worrisome for him. After what GV went through it’s easy to empathise with the situation. Hopefully he sees how Vilardi has kept going and gets some inspiration from it.
