Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Evilhomer]

Used to live in South Florida, the average January high in Miami is 78F.

This sounds so incredibly glorious. My God, I hate winter.

Yeah but from March to November it is swampass times infinity and from July to November a storm might wipe you off the map if mother nature is pissed enough

Just kidding, South Florida is pretty sweet...if you're in your 20's or if you're retired. I would not raise my daughter there.

Bob robs game 1 from the Oil who spent all their energy trying to get the W. Series now expected to be done in 6 for FL.

Goodnight sweet prince.

 

[RunItBackAgain]

GG.

On another note, we are not legit contenders. Not even close.

 

[hockeyes]

Oilers the better team, but can they adjust to the greaseball that is Florida? Gotta give Bob a Perry special and the cup is theirs. On the other hand, I know way too many annoying Oiler fans day to day so I am completely fine with them fading into the night.

Gonna be a Bob special. Roy style.

 

[weems]

Now that is getting "Goalied"

 

[mcleex]

How fitting is it that they panned to Corey Perry after the rats started getting thrown on the ice

 

[socko]

Bob wants that Conn Smythe trophy.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Welcome back to reality, LOILERS.

 

[MSZ]

Bob wants that Conn Smythe trophy.

I wouldn't mind that. McJesus had won enough trophies himself, I don't wanna see him to win another one.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Florida doesn't seem to play well after an extended break (see game 1 vs Boston). But they did limit Edmonton to only a few decent chances in the 3rd

I think they'll be better in game 2. Hopefully a short series!

 

[CuuuJooo]

Stupid double post. The gum in McDavid’s beard got stuck to my screen.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Great night for my hockey pool

Florida needs to be better though if they’re going to win the series.

Rough first two periods.

 

[CuuuJooo]

Our defence can be bad.

But it’s generally not Nurse-Ceci bad. There’s hope!

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Unless Bob is injured or forgets how to play net. Its over

Friedman was almost prophetic. He said the long break would significantly benefit Bob and here we are. He pitched a shutout in game 1

 

[Nineteen67]

Ok Oilers, fold up and get this over quick.

They just grind so well, Pat Quinn leafs come to mind to me. Oilers have the fabulous top end who produce, but putting Ceci/Nurse out 20 minutes a night in front of in and out goaltending dooms them (I hope)

This game tonight brought back memories and feelings when our Leafs nearly got swept by the Panthers last year.

Paul Maurice is such a good coach and like I use to say when he was ours .. "Never say never to a Paul Maurice coached team".

"Defense Wins Championships" and posting a Shutout to start the finals has Florida off to a great start.

 

[BallardEra]

you kidding me with that shit? 48C and they're on an island and this isn't officially summer yet? Woof.

Yep. It "dropped" to 37 today and this is the forecast for the next 5 days:

You mean when we were still a shit team and guys like Andy Woz got overplayed?

Maurice is a whinier but better coach today than he was in Toronto.

 

[Superstar]

Bennett was acquired for a 2nd round pick. That's the difference between a good GM and what Leafs fans have had to endure.

You mean you didn't like an injured Foligno for a 1st?
