Around the NHL - Part XLI - (Playoffs Edition)

[KOVALEV022473]

Thank you it just goes to show you what a pathetic waste of space NHL DOPs is. YES, I did the lower case s on purpose.

 

[hackeyman]

Uh, The cup favorites lost.

I've been saying they would exit the first round since 20 games into the season.

 

[broadwayblue]

Are we though?

Well we are also the Vegas dogs if only slightly.

 

[jerseyjinx94]

Tampa and Boston eliminated. Time for new blood

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I will throw someone through a wall if Seattle tries to turtle in the 3rd.

If they do, they're going to lose.

 

[Machinehead]

You know who had a garbage roster and won a bunch of playoff series? The Islanders during covid. That team was good at precisely nothing.

But they had Trotz so that at least made some sense. Maybe Hakstol is better than we thought and Jesus Christ couldn't coach the Flyers. That I would absolutely believe.

There goes Tob.

 

[Filip Chytil]

Colorado absolutely needs a PPG here

I’ll put it in terms you might understand.

Picture a team full of Veseys. And 3 of those Vesey excel in goal scoring

 

[CasusBelli]

almost like it's a team game.

Flashes of Leicester

That sounds like absolute diarrhea and you couldn't pay me to watch it, all due respect to Jimbo.

These particular Veseys also skate like the wind.

I've been saying they would exit the first round since 20 games into the season.

They were considered cup favorites by many including myself. I would much rather play Toronto or Florida if we ever get there.

 

[17futurecap]

What a shot, tough not getting to the room 2-0.

 

[B17 Apricots]

MacKinnon is f***ing awesome

 

[Filip Chytil]

MacKinnon wow

 

[Machinehead]

Here's an actual hot take: it's up to us to take out the team to beat in the East tomorrow.

 

[Priorae]

Goal with seconds left in the period to change the game. Sounds familiar

 

[Machinehead]

Rantanen is another one who scores a bunch of goals doing nothing.

Reminds me of Draisaitl.

 

[will1066]

Colorado absolutely needs a PPG here

Prophetic

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Here's an actual hot take: it's up to us to take out the team to beat in the East tomorrow.

Yeah I just burst into flames reading this one.

 

[Machinehead]

Yeah I just burst into flames reading this one.

Because you know they have a really good chance at it and nobody wants to admit it.

Although, I will say this, if Ruff keeps coaching the way he's coaching, they're a legless man in the middle of the ocean.

I could very much see Toronto beating them. They were under the radar really good all year.

 

[xsniper11x]

We're trading Panarin there.

but they have great role players. Each player has a specific role/talent and it comes together well. The sum is greater than the parts.

McCann and Dunn had great seasons.

If Bread were open to being moved, I def see SEA as one of the few teams w/ enough interest and cap space to do it. A nice PO run likely makes them hungry for a big move.

 

[hackeyman]

I don't see Colorado losing this game other than Georgie losing it for them.

 

[duhmetreE]

Here's an actual hot take: it's up to us to take out the team to beat in the East tomorrow.

This is deep.

We are the team to beat.

We are the only ones that can beat ourselves.
