Why not? I'm starting to prefer the CBJ over the Flyers. Also, if we face the CBJ, then Philly would play the Penguins, who own them.

Just like what Dave said about the Rangers power play under Tortorella. It wasn't the power play per se. It was the brain dead hockey that killed the creativity and thinking on the ice. The Boar's system does that except much worse.

Bobrovsky alone wants me to face the Flyers alone, if anyone's gonna steal a series it'll be him rather than Mason.

The Devils shootouts losses are actually a statistical anomaly that almost any stat you can bring up in sports. Shootouts are a crapshoot, essentially. Flip a coin. Tell me the first time you get 16 heads/tails in a row. Might be a while.
Not sure why but I think clb could surprise while nyr has Phillis number .

Wow...the Blues need to get it together....Anyone see Rupp's hit on Oshie? Disgusting hit.

No retaliation from anyone on the Blues... Guess we're not the only team with physicality problems.
I find it amazing that we almost swept the 111 point (at least) Avs, winning one game 5-1 and almost winning another game without McDonagh.

It's amazing how predictive goal differential is - with the exception of Washington (-8) to Detroit's (-11) every team in the playoffs has a better overall goal differential than teams who didn't make it.

The thing is going to OT and the shootout so often just shows how mediocre they are especially on offense. To me the Devils are not a playoff worthy team.

They want to avoid us in order to play the Bruins/Penguins?...
Tampa just lost their starter and hasn't been so hot recently.

A team trying to move up the ranks is going to play their back up, who is a lot worse than the reigning Vezina winner... to do what?
Playoffs are about playing to your advantages. Explain how this move makes any sense other than in the context of trying to land the Penguins in the first round.

Have the Rangers ever done that when they haven't solidified seeding?
Hank played like 21 games to end the season one year just so we could get a better seed.
You get whatever advantage you can get. This move doesnt make sense unless they had already locked into a seed and wanted to give him rest then. Otherwise, you take whatever advantage you can get.
You don't just play a back up in this scenario.
