Around the NHL: Part XXIV

[aufheben]

Washington’s feed is absolutely unbearable.

 

[aufheben]

the only team i could stomach going to the Finals is Tampa.

f*** them too.

VGK-PHI with Vegas winning is my preferred scenario.

 

[East Coast Bias]

The Flyers haven’t been all that impressive. The Isles could easily beat them. Flyers haven’t really controlled the play against Montreal much at all

Yeah AV has a habit of letting his opponents dictate the pace of play. If they pull a Washington and try to force the cross ice passes consistently, that will be a problem.

But the Isles will be facing a much better goalie than they've seen so far. Washington could have very easily won the first 2 games if Holtby wasn't horrible.

Montreal is honestly kind of a pain to play against. They carry the play against a lot of teams.

yeah I just don’t think Philly has been impressive. They’re relying on Carter Hart to make tons of saves nightly. Against a bad team.

agreed on AV. Always play to the level of competition in the playoffs. Never dominate bad teams.

This is also very true.

Idk, I just have a feeling the Flyers might have an easier time against the Lightning than the Habs.

Washington’s feed is absolutely unbearable.

Joe Beninati has an Emmy. Let that sink in.

 

[Tob]

Caps and the Islanders killing each other

 

[aufheben]

Oh thank god, I found a French feed of the WSH-NYI game.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Has to be a local Emmy, right?

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

Honestly would hate winning the Cup this year unless you’ve won it recently. Imagine winning your first cup in over 20 years or first cup ever and having no parade or anything?

 

[NYR94]

Yeah, you're right, Chesapeake Bay Chapter. He actually has a bunch of them.

 

[Edge]

Post of the playoffs right here folks.

 

[Richard Banger]

They just lost Tarasenko for the playoffs

To be fair he didn't contribute that much in their cup run.

 

[NYR94]

The inevitable Vegas-Colorado WCF is going to be awesome.

 

[nyr2k2]

Washington’s feed is absolutely unbearable.

I learned long ago that I could only watch Capitals games on TV here of it was on mute. Beninati and Laughlin are truly awful.

 

[Greg02]

I would have been very happy winning the cup this year.

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

I would have been very happy winning the cup this year.

Nahh, the Playoffs are lame this year. Rather wait till it gets back to normal.

 

[Thirty One]

Honestly would hate winning the Cup this year unless you’ve won it recently. Imagine winning your first cup in over 20 years or first cup ever and having no parade or anything?

I think I'd survive.

 

[TheTimTamSlammerMan]

I think I'd survive.

Same.

<3 AV

I want the Flyers to win the Cup with Hayes scoring the OT winner in game 7 of the SCF just to see this fanbase explode

You just made me imagine Giroux handing the cup to Hayes and my brain broke a little

 

[SnowblindNYR]

What a pretty goal.

 

[bl02]

This is also very true.

I'm not sure about that. The Habs have zero finishers. Zero. Gallagher is obviously playing at 50 percent if that. They are relying a lot on Suzuki and KK for offense. If Price lets up more than a goal they probably lose 75 percent at this point.
Chariot and kulak have been playing well but they are not top defenders. Mete/Ouellet not very good.
