Around the NHL: Part XXXIII

[CasusBelli]

Why did we trade McD again?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

What this series tells me is that we were 1 goal away from having the 2021 Stanley Cup Champions be *gasp* the New York Islanders.

The Canadians are the worst Stanley Cup finalists since (fill in the blank)?

I have to say since the 2003 Anaheim Ducks.

Edit: Maybe the 2002 Canes, at least those Ducks took it to 7 games.

Price letting up 5 goals a game in what will be his only final, you love to see it.

 

[Stugots]

Watching this series makes me that much more thankful Tampa beat the Isles. They were not losing to this shitty Montreal team.

 

[Machinehead]

So satisfying finally seeing this violently mediocre Montreal team not only losing but getting bodied

Corey Perry looks 80 years old. He looks like an aging cowboy or a hobo.

Rebuild. The trade tree ain't done. Wait and see. Lundkvist alone might make it worthwhile.

See what we can get for Hajek and Howden. Higher picks in order.

Would have been so much funnier if they did though

2007 senators

Respectfully disagree, that was a Sens team that was one season away from winning the east in the regular season. They just looked bad in the final.

I did forget about Vegas, I guess they're up there.

Last year lol

The Stars are f***ing terrible

 

[Irishguy42]

Pretty sure Coleman's goal in Game 2 has been the only goal this series that hasn't been a fluke/soft

Sounds dirty

Vasy's eyes always remind me of Khabibulin's stare.

Thanks. I really couldn’t remember why we dealt him. Must be getting old lol.

I love how our first and second overall picks weren’t trusted late in regular season games so that a non playoff team could try to eke out a few extra wins and here we’re seeing Cole Caufield thrust into the school of hard knocks during the SCF.

 

[Harbour Dog]

This is so lopsided, it's hilarious.

Ducks still had Kariya, Rucchin, Oates and I think Ozo. That’s some elite talent. The Habs have … three has beens in Perry, Staal and Weber.

Edit: thought Sykora and Fedorov were on that roster, but I think they joined the following season. Whoops.

and he should have been on the 4 on 3 early in game 2. One of the series turning points.
Suzuki was given the same opportunities last season in the bubble and you could see it was very valuable now hes on his way already to be a guaranteed terrific centerman (floor of 2nd C and probably a good 1C)
