Around the League - 2022-23 Season Edition

Sheesh. Bettman gets his dream outcome.

Vegas, Carolina, Florida, Dallas,…… This is the most southern US Final 4 ever.

I mean power to them, they’ve earned the right, but that grates doesn’t it? One city where it at least accumulates snow, please?

At least Havana missed the playoffs.

Good riddance, Chaz Kretins

 

[Leaf Rocket]

If Oettinger has eight more good ones in him, Dallas has a great chance of closing the deal.

If this is the goalie we saw tonight, he can definitely steal the games from everyone.

I still think Vegas will go to the finals though.

I can't stand Domi as a character but Ill give it to him he played well this series.

 

[Buds17]

There goes my WCF "dream". Since I do like the idea of a first-time winner and don't like the idea of rooting for a divisional rival, VGK!!!

Sheesh. Bettman gets his dream outcome.

Vegas, Carolina, Florida, Dallas,…… This is the most southern US Final 4 ever.

I’d prefer Nashville or Tampa over MiamI……

Elvis sang it best….Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton….

 

[weems]

Cheering for Dallas the rest of the way.

Really like the way they play and they've drafted very well the past few seasons.

 

[Squiffy]

Gotta pull for either the Whalers or the North Stars here I guess. I’ll go North Stars.

Unless Carolina brings this back:

Now I want this final instead of the Canes Vegas Finals...Dangnabbit

 

[1specter]

I'm glad Dallas made it past Seattle, hopefully Pavs gets his Cup. God damn though this is a very uncompelling final 4. Might be the worst in a long time.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Think CBC will switch over to Murdock Mystery re-runs to boost their rantings? LOL

Same. I had Dallas players in my regular season pool so I watched them fairly often.
Didn’t take long to realize not only were they entertaining but also a well constructed team.

To make it worse: I'm pretty sure three out of four are teams that qualify for financial assistance. Which means the Leafs, the Rangers, the Canadiens, the Red Wings, and a few other rich teams are basically paying for these guys to make deep playoff runs.

 

[Menzinger]

Dallas vs Vegas should make for probably the best remaining series

Canes should beat Florida. And then I think it'll be a fairly forgettable cup final.

 

[Peasy]

After such a crazy first round, what a dud the rest of the playoffs will be.

Following the leafs drama will be more entertaining than watching these 2 series.

 

[Nineteen67]

Numbers 2,4,8,17 in standings are in the semis. 17 won the Presidents Trophy last year and were on pace for over 100 points since the beginning of the 2023. Pretty good field.

 

[Burnie97]

At this point that's a pretty shit final 4 but I guess a Dallas vs Carolina final with Dallas winning would be alright.

Be funny if a west team won to be honest after how much better the east is but it just takes a team getting hot.

 

[Warden of the North]

I guess Vegas is my hope for the Cup.
Don't really care to be honest though.

 

[kb]

And still looked more imposing shift to shift than our overpaid "franchise" centre.

Not even remotely close.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Nah, Dallas.. Vegas doesn’t deserve it

 

[Gabriel426]

The Oilers game is the last game I watched this season. Don’t think I will even turn into the Finals unless Vegas makes it due to Phil.

Replaying the games that the Canadian teams won in full..... all 12 of them. Will get better ratings.

I would rather watch the 4-1 comeback game in full than Panthers vs Canes.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

I've got Vegas winning the whole thing and Eichel winning the conn smythe which will shut up a lot of people, if he hasn't already. That being said...won't be watching, onto the jays

 

[Trapper]

Just saw the stat that Golden Knights reach conference finals for the fourth time in six years. That's stupid crazy for an expansion team.

And here we are trying to figure out our excel sheet formulas.

Build a team that can play in the regular season and playoffs.
