Around the NHL - Part XLII - (Playoffs Edition)

[CasusBelli]

But was there really any doubt?

 

[ReddestRum]

No we wouldn't have. We really don't destroy anyone.

Lol. I don't know what people are thinking. Outshot in two series and acting like the SCF would've been a cakewalk with our no-show forwards and gimp D.

 

[Megustaelhockey]

Desharnais is a moron. Get him out of there.

 

[Graves97]

Panthers are so f***ing unlikeable

 

[CasusBelli]

Based on that reaction, all that was missing was "et tu, Brutei."

 

[zlev]

Mika Draisaitl out there.

and K'Andre Bouchard

Oilers are not a top 10 team in the league

Florida going to Paris next month to go for the gold in team diving?

 

[DoTheBlue]

Right in the jiggly puffs

 

[CasusBelli]

Please tell me whyyyyyyyy ....

My car is in the front yaaaard

And I'm ...

Sleeping with my clothes oooon ...


Best part of the game, sadly.

But was there really any doubt?

Not really. I did think that EDM would have more than 1 goal in 2 games, and also thought McD/Drai would have more than1 point between them by now

 

[JRinNYC]

I hope the fans just jinxed FLA with that chant.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Panthers are so f***ing unlikeable

That’s how I feel about the Oilers and that joke of a face of the league

Oilers hoping they'll lose the fan vote portion!

He’s one of the most skilled players of all time. Panthers like to muck it up and take cheap shots but dive worse than soccer players when the opposition does the same to them.

That's because they're busy destroying our hopes and dreams.

 

[RangersFan]

Do the Rangers win the Cup over the Oilers? What about with Tank and Mikkola? Damn I wish the cap wasn't so mismanaged, should have re-signed both.

Catch 22. We resign tarasenko and Laf probably doesn’t break out this year because of the diminished opportunities.

100% agree on mikkola though. He was really good for us

Not bashing his skill, I’m saying he’s awkward AF and honestly an embarrassing ambassador to the sport. He is an unlikeable diver and never gets called, and idk what game you were watching when the Oilers literally injured half of their team lol. Panthers play a physical game, sure they’re a pain in the ass to play against but I’d love our team to play more like them.

and even then Mikkola isn't taking minutes away from the Trouba/KAM pairing

Was he that good? I remember him being just a guy. I definitely don’t remember him having the mean streak he’s shown in this years playoffs, I think he’s taken on that Panther identity

 

[17futurecap]

Just words in the long run, but at least he said it.

The cap wasn't mismanaged. Just like every other team in this flat cap league teams can't sign everybody and many of the top teams have little cap space. Those players make a combined 7.5 mil a year.

 

[17futurecap]

Dead puck hockey is back, what a sight for the sport.

 

[PuckLuck3043]

You can't win many games if you score 1 goal in 2 games. People bitching about how the Rangers couldn't score against Florida. Newsflash, It's hard to score against Florida. This is part of the reason I picked Panthers in 5. Only way this series goes longer is if Barkov is out.
