Did you check Meyers by chance? How did he fair in the limited amount of games he played in the regular season

Just one goal in five games but he is tied for the scoring lead on Team USA at the World Championships, helping them contend for a medal when probably most people thought they had no chance of anything.
Not sure I've ever seen a guy play in the WC versus the Stanley Cup playoffs btw. Curious how that worked out.

Meh, looking for the highest quality finals, without the Avs winning the cup.
And let the most obnoxious and entitled fans in the game get anywhere near a Cup? Hell nah!Meh, looking for the highest quality finals, without the Avs winning the cup.
Newsflash, they've already been there.
Also, newsflash... Oilers fans would be beyond insufferable. I remember the last time the Oil got close... thank goodness they went through a decade of terrible hockey after.
The Messier Finals (EDM/NYR) is the finals the NHL needs. 2 huge fanbases, both Canada and the US.

Oilers fans are much more obnoxious, entitled and anoying than Avs fans and its not even close to me. They are the Leaf fans of the west and even they are much better to me than Oilers fans.
I have tuned out of the playoffs. Three of the teams I dislike the most are now in the Finals; Edmonton, New York and Colorado

I'll probably tune out now, as well. There's nothing at stake for the Wild (draft position was still, this last round) and I don't really love any of the remaining teams. I'll watch highlights of the Avs-Oilers, just for the high end guys on both sides, but that's about where I'm at now.
Because of the fans. The Av fans and the Oiler fans are going to be insufferable.

And what do they have to do with watching? Turn the tv on, have it somewhat low volume and just enjoy watching. Unless you’re there or on a GDT you won’t have interaction with either fan base?

Could not give less of a shit about the fans; I just love watching Colorado play when they’re on.

It is really beatiful to behold, like a hurricane just off the coast. They're going to ruin your day, but they'll look incredible while they do it.

I'm not super provincial, but K'Andre Miller being good is pretty cool.
Just further proof for me how crap Tony Granato is at coaching. He looked awful his sophomore year at Wisconsin.
Holy crap, the Lightning had two cross crease opportunities to tie it.
