Around the NHL: Part XLIX (Playoff Edition)

[Clowes Line]

Hilarious. Nets and Bulls went 3 OT last night which is only 3 more minutes than a regular NHL game, and they get 6 timeouts per half and 3 (?) per each OT, NHL gets one a game. NBA fans are some funny people to listen to.

So Ottawa or Boston tonight?

I am torn, I would love to see an Isles-Pens 1st round matchup, but I don't want to see the Habs win the northeast.

 

[Clowes Line]

Pulling for the Bruins to win. Dying to see a Habs-Leafs matchup.

Who holds the tie-breaker between Isles/Sens if the Sens lose in OT?

Points and ROW will be equal.

Ottawa won the regular season series and thus holds the tie breaker.

 

[JohnC]

I'm curious to see how Ottawa's gonna fare against the top 2 seeds, whichever one they'll play

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Ottawa won the regular season series and thus holds the tie breaker.

So... If OTT loses in OT, Boston finishes 2nd and the Isles still play Pitts

Correct.

 

[KRM]

Good fight, Niel vs. Lucic.

I think the Sens match up better with the Pens, I would love to see them pull the upset off. I'm rooting for Boston!

 

[The Gloaming]

Is wade redden playing 2nd pairing minutes for the Bruins?

 

[truebluegoalie]

I was hoping with some of the hate between the pens/isles over the past few years the Isles might at least put a bit of a physical hurting on the penguins.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

I want to see the Isles face the Pens.. Their fans were talking about how bad the Pens would make the Rangers look in Rd 1.

 

[member 116805]

Sens making Bruins look stupid. 2-0

 

[JohnC]

So if Ott wins it's

1 v 8 Pittsburgh vs New York Islanders
2 v 7 Boston vs Ottawa
3 v 6 Washington vs New York Rangers
4 v 5 Boston vs Toronto

Correct?

 

[silverfish]

So if Ott wins it's

1 v 8 Pittsburgh vs New York Islanders
2 v 7 Montreal vs Ottawa
3 v 6 Washington vs New York Rangers
4 v 5 Boston vs Toronto

Correct?

Fixed, even though I'm sure that's what you meant

And yes.

 

[NYR94]

1 v 8 Pittsburgh vs New York Islanders
2 v 7 Boston vs Ottawa
3 v 6 Washington vs New York Rangers
4 v 5 Boston vs Toronto

Correct?

You wrote Boston twice. Montreal is in there somewhere.

 

[JohnC]

My dream of cloning Boston is dead now

 

[Kakko]

I'll be pulling for all the lower seeded teams in the east. Top four are the four teams that piss me off...

nothing would please me more than the Isles taking care of the Pens.

Most arrogant franchise in the league
