It's crazy that one of those teams has to go in the first round. It's either Crosby and Malkin or the President's Trophy winners and last year's Eastern Conference champs.
 
I can't be the only one that thinks Jackman looks like a llama?

Good to see the Sens get one in the win column. That series could easily have been tied at twos. Hope they go into Montreal and steal one in a few nights.
 
You guys are missing out. I've watched just about every game. Have the Blues/Wild on my PC while watching the Ducks/Jets on TV.

If the Kings played like they did in 2014, they would at the very least reach the Conference Finals this year, but alas, this year's team wasn't the same as last year's team.
 
Watching the playoffs without the Kings ****ing sucks.

Indeed, I could give a **** about the playoffs this year. Don't really have a second team that I have any interest in, kind of the Isles but eh. This past year was probably one of the ********* ones in recent memory. Even way back when we were just starting to make the playoffs, at least there was the excitement of being in the show. To say I'm disappoint is an understatement.
 
You are really missing out of you aren't watching the Calgary/ Vancouver series.

Did you get to watch the Blackhawks-Predators Game 4 yesterday? That 1st OT was crazy.

That was definitely the best game of the playoffs. Despite not having Weber and Fisher, the Predators have nothing to be ashamed about. Their blueline is set for years with Weber, Josi, Jones and Ekholm. They're the backbone of the Predators.

I think we are sadly headed to a Ducks-Hawks WCF.

It appears that way. I don't know if either the Blues or Wild can knock the Hawks out, and Calgary would have to pull off a huge upset to knock the Ducks out (that is if both teams advance, which is very likely to happen).
 
Ducks/Blues
Montreal/Islanders
Blues/Islanders
Blues

Even if the Blues do survive the Wild (and I'd say it's 50/50) they will need to go through Chicago in the 2nd round and the Ducks in the third round. I just don't see them having the horses to beat both those teams in a Best of 7.
 
Ok, guys. So just out of curiosity...

What is the Kings worst loss since returning to the playoffs back in 2010?

Game 3 vs. SJ in 2011. Although a team with Jarret Stoll as the #1 center was going nowhere.

Game 1 vs. St. Louis in 2013. I was there, right behind the goal when Quick messed up. Kings were on a 4 minute PP in OT after tying it in the final minute of regulation.

Game 4 vs. Chicago in 2013. Knew it was over, Kings should have gone back to Chicago tied 2-2 and a realistic chance to repeat.
