Series Talk: Around the NHL: 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs — First-round

[trilobyte]

How are the Leafs gonna get past the first round in the foreseeable future? tampa and boston just better

Lou Lams will be doing some stuff soon. Probably get Tommy to stop wearing that turtleneck. He hates that kind of rebel stuff.

 

[Mac n Gs]

Wouldn’t be the Leafs without a collapse somewhere. Brutal 3rd period.

 

[Siddi]

You must be looking at something else amigo.

They showed her while 'Pour some sugar on me' was playing. Very fitting

 

[bl02]

Tampa will be in cap hell very soon. Chara can't play forever.

Yeah but both of those teams have good young players too. Just saying its not gonna be a easy task especially considering they are thinking cup in toronto.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Now the real question is does 1967 break 1940?

Yes.

The league didn’t fix cups prior to the expansion for us when they’d weren’t fixing it for the Habs

Gardiner? Weird

Seriously though , schwiiiiinnng!

 

[Lion Hound]

Tough game for Gardiner.

Happy for long beach. McAvoy looks like a seasoned veteran.

 

[bl02]

Crazy game but Tampa is going to steamroll Boston.

I hope you're right

A video vixen indeed

 

[GregSirico]

Toronto's defense literally imploded and they get to watch McDonagh play against Boston LOL!

 

[LaffyTaffy]

Came here just to say that that was some of the most infuriating hockey I have ever seen from a player in my life. I can't believe Jake mother******* Gardiner just cost us a higher pick in the draft. He singlehandedly threw that game, was on for each of the last three goals. Despicable performance, he should be ashamed of himself.

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

The playoffs rarely roll in favor of the Rangers , even when they aren’t even in the playoffs.

Bruins in 4?

 

[trilobyte]

Heartbreak at the Gaaahden again for the Buds
Bruins not exactly great though

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

The “garden ice” eh????

 

[ReggieDunlop68]

Hey 1994! sorry Doc

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

So who do we want to win in the Tampa vs Boston series so we get the best picks?

Boston is impressive but is Vasi can be on his game I think he’s the difference maker. Plus Tampa can roll Hedman and then McDonagh all game.

We should want Tampa to win the Cup regardless this year. Secure the first round pick next season, and then hope that Tampa implodes.

 

[bl02]

Bruins had three consecutive first round picks in 2015 they sure hit gold with one of them. Debrusk is a beast.

 

[Doctor King Schultz]

Bruins winning this game only affects our draft pick if they don't lose next round.

He sucked and sucks! So happy we didn't acquire him. Thank goodness. That being said If tampa beats boston tonight is completely irrelevant. Also we need vegas and Wash to lose.

Tampa 100%

Tampa must win. Boston didn't win the division so their selection will be worth more. Also if tampa wins cup (which is far from a sure thing) we get their first next year

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Never forget:

And Boeser

 

[bl02]

Never forget:

Totally understand. Thats correct but At the time most thought all three picks were a disaster. Debrusk is terrific. What he did tonight in a game 7 was special
