Bruins are struggling hard but I’ll believe they’re truly down and out when I see 8 Eastern Conference teams with an “x” beside their names and Boston isn’t one of them.
IMO, the top 7 teams for the playoffs are likely set in the East. Carolina, Washington, NYR, NJD, Florida, Toronto, Tampa.... So it's just down to who the final wildcard is.

It's between NYI, Boston, Ottawa

Not ready to bury the Bruins at all but I'll enjoy it for the moment

Leafs took the starch out of the Oilers, they were unable to get up for the Habs now go beat the Sens and it will be a perfect little East Canada trip for the Oil

Showing the Corey Perry career highlights immediately after the Hyundai commercial with Bedard and his mom in it had to be a troll job.

But the height of stupidity is making the French broadcast of the Canadiens game only available outside anywhere in the country that speaks French. How many people do you think watched that game? Wouldn't surprise me if I was the only one.

Here's hoping Ovechkin isn't out of the lineup long after that weird collision.

Two tickets to two Capitals games and an Ovi snow globe cost just $199. I think that's American dollars but still cheap. That's pretty much standing room only prices for a single ticket to one Leafs game.

You don't get a snow globe with that either.

I feel like there's too many penalties being called these days. Almost a third of the game is being played on special teams usually. There's other ways to score than by increasing the number of power plays.

Just ask Corey Perry.

Its honestly going to be such a shame if McDavid spends the majority of his career and prime in Edmonton. My god they might be the most incompetent franchise out there and thats saying something considering the team we all cheer for.

Jeff Jackson completely tanked that team in a 2 month period. The ironic thing is that majority of Oiler fans were ready to make a statue for him based on those 2 months.

I tend to agree, and I think Boston probably makes it as the 8th seed, but they won't survive the first round no matter who the coach may be. Their only hope is that Swayman rounds into form midway through the season as a result of missing training camp.

Man the delusional talk on that TSN 690 station is surreal, I don’t listen as much as I once did, but most of the on air people there seem to have studied at the McCagg institute of Hab evaluation.

Yep. In what stratosphere is Arber Jackass worth a first round pick?

Boston cancelled their scheduled practice today. There are some rumours that Montgomery might get fired. I don't really think it's his fault though, I just don't think the signings were the right guys, and father time catches up with everyone at some point. Lindholm is more of a 2C, and in over his head, and they overpaid for Zadorov... Honestly, I'm not sure this is anyone's fault, just time finally caught up with them, no prospects, time to rebuild.

Yeah not sure it's on the coach at all. I feel like the GM probably deserves a lot more heat.
