Around the NHL - Part XLI - (Playoffs Edition)

That doesn't mean he was bad WHEN they won the cup. Guys end up like Jim Carey, Cam Ward, etc where they go from top 10 goalie to barely scraping a backup job. The idea is, don't let the notion of "any goalie in net can win a Championship" when you spend years building a contender only to fall flat because you neglected 1 position which can single handedly win or lose you games.

So then you might say they got hot out of nowhere?

Bunting not in Leafs lineup following suspension

Leafs forward Michael Bunting has finished his suspension, but he will not be in the lineup for the Maple Leafs, who have won three straight games.

Interesting decision - not sure it's the right one.

Playoffs have been lackluster so far.

Last year the 1st round was great and it fell off after that. Hopefully it picks up soon.

Panthers game was pretty good last night. David and Goliath and all that.

Emily Kaplan is "trapped on a desert island for 10 years" hot.

It was one of the first back and forth games I've watched..

Haven't stayed up for the West Coast games, it seems like LA/EDM is the series to watch

Somewhere along the way I got too old for that. I used to love staying up and watching everything but now that's a pipe dream lol

Toronto has the opportunity to advance to the second round for the first time in 20 years and you can hear a pin drop in the arena.

Tampa's tank is on empty. LOL! I'm such a jinx.

How come we could never face this shithouse quality Vasilevskiy?

And the Leafs pull a Rangers and give it RIGHT back.

We did in games 1 and 2.

Serious question at this point if vaz is hurt or something is up with him. He has looked way too meh

 

[duhmetreE]

Vasi looks like he booked his vacation already...

Sources say Bora Bora

 

[Ori]

Leafs is serious this season 3-1 lead

 

[Filip Chytil]

Vegas taking care of business so far vs WPG

Howden with an assist!

 

[Megustaelhockey]

At least we will not be the first team eliminated.

 

[17futurecap]

Changes coming for the Jets this summer I’m guessing?

Islander fans are some of the douchiest people on the planet, but at least they show up & make a shit ton of noise for their team. Win or lose, they give their team a ton of energy throughout the game. Can't say the same about our building.

that's the one thing I noticed when my pops and I went to go see Ducks vs Isles during Selanne's farewell tour (he didn't play. it sucked.). they're really friggin loud.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

Granted tda wasnt great in his own zone, he was a great offensive pmd dman and a total prick on the ice. 2 things this team could desperately use

Untrue.

They were pretty dead in Game 3 (Except for the offensive outburst), definitely were quiet Game 4.

At least our fans would have booed them.
