Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

Canucks.

Vancouver really didn't have any business winning game 5, their luck has obviously ran out.

Canucks dominated that game. They deserved to win for sure

They've been pure ass since the start of period 2 of game 6

Go to bed Kyle.

You quote me a lot for not wanting to talk to me... Is there a reason? Is it just you wanting to up the point count? Doesn't look like a lot to live for outside of the forum judging by the post count.

Glad we could over pay our core four so we couldn’t pay a heart and soul Hyman. I recall so many “okay maybe we over paid a little, but what’s 500 grand here, a mil here”. It’s room to keep Hyman, zero sum game maroons! Said it then, proven now, we blew it.


Go to bed Kyle.

We probably could have gotten him for 4.

Basically just needed to ship Kerfoot out of town instead (same with the McCann thing)

How’s Lafferty looking lol.

About as bad as Reaves... just cheaper and not signed until he is 40

 

[BallardEra]

Canucks will have the firmest handshakes of all and gain a lot of respect in a few more minutes.

For sure, he desperately wanted to stay too. Love that guy. He was pacing for 30 goals here twice as well.

Loyalty to Kerfoot and Holl is the second main reason the Leafs lost out on actually good secondary pieces. The primary reason being the overpayments of MNM.

Probably sucks at the back end of the deal but obviously would have done well for a little.

We add him to Dubas's best pick up in Bunting and we're actually deep

Rick Tocchet's body lannguage on the bench has been depressing. I know they are getting badly outplayed but the coach is so quiet back there. Show some emotion so you team can get something going.

Some history happening tonight....

They showed the second goal again. My goodness that Lafferty turnover was worse than I thought. Tried to make a move inside the blueline instead of playing it safe

Canucks have shot themselves in the foot with dumb plays like that

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Pretty feeble effort from the Canucks. Had them on the ropes after game 5 then proceeded to shit the bed.

Never forget that we spent 2.5 on Ritchie and 1.5 on Dermott as well right after getting rid of him...

I'm sure he'd love to have that off season back

Meh. More time for scooter rides:

Probably could tell from the gun. Not really too much you can do

Not for nothing Reaves has more points this postseason than Lafferty in half the amount of games. Granted it's 1 point, but it's 1 more point than Lafferty who actually got to play alongside an elite talent for a good chunk of time.

Canucks fans are the most obnoxious in the league when they’re winning and always have that “never been there” vibe.

I am curious who is directly responsible for more goals against...

Reaves was fine, and I even said as much, but he was directly responsible for 2 against.

All I ever want out of a 4th line is to not be a liability.

We went from Matthews vs McDavid to vs Draisaitl to now vs RNH

Oilers likely with their 2nd WCF in 3 years. Dallas will be a tough match

If they beat the stars they take the cup. They match better vs rangers or panthers thsn vs stars

 

[JKG33]

EP40 looks like such a Leaf. Milk the team for all you can just to disappear in the playoffs. Just like MNM

 

[notbias]

We went from Matthews vs McDavid ti vs Draisaitl to now vs RNH

Oilers with their 2nd WCF in 3 years

As of today, they still have won as many games in the conference finals as the Leafs... not like they have been super successful.

They can thank Bettman and his shitty playoff format for that one
