Boston Bruins (A1) vs Florida Panthers (WC2) - | Series Tied 3-3

[dalewood12]

I feel like this series will be won by the Bruins in 4 or 5 games, but the games will be very close.

Your very narrow idea of adversity*

Also, why must a team face the adversity you consider adversity? What if they never have to? Or what if they face it the first time in the playoffs and surpass it?

It's not like this Bruins team is some up & coming team full of inexperienced players. 3 of them have played in 3 Stanley Cups.

Adversity is just a word used by those who don't want to have to give credit to the Bruin's record setting season. If they had multiple injuries, won a bunch of OT/Shootout games, and limped into the playoffs with a 100 point season, the mantra wouldn't be "look at all the adversity they faced", it would be "Boston's not that good, look at their record." The agenda is so transparent, it's a wonder anybody claims this nonsense.

Yeah not my fault if people who dont understand than facing difficulties and adversity are not synonyms, doesn't mean the same thingt

Ummm, that's literally the definition of adversity chief.

"a state or instance of serious or continued difficulty or misfortune"

So both a synonym and part of the actual definition.

I just hope the Panthers can make it interesting, hopefully 6 games, but I say Bruins in 5.

 

[Enniskillen]

Bruins will plunder and burn all villages around Ft. Lauderdale. Even flood won’t stop them from burning and pillaging.

 

[Mandar]

Bruins in 5. Panthers will manage to steal one.

why? Just because?

The Bruins wont be taking their foot off the pedal in any game....I see no way that Florida gets one ("stealing" a game somehow from a team that won more regular season games in history).

 

[nasero]

Too many people are underestimating the Panthers. As a B's fan I think this will be a fairly tough series.

It's less about the Panthers and more just about how consistent and dominant the Bruins have been from start to finish

 

[KnightCap78]

Bruins in 4. These guys are on a mission this year.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Go Panthers, but Boston in five.

Too many people are overestimating the Panthers and underestimating the Bruins.

While “anything is possible, blah, blah, blah” it is more likely the Bruins make this series a snore fest by grinding the Panthers into dust than for the Panthers to actually win it.

14% of people here have voted for the Panthers to win the series. Betting markets have the implied odds at around 30% for the Panthers winning the series.

I promise no one is underestimating the team with the all time NHL wins record here. 65% of people here have voted for them to win in 4 or 5

my heart says panthers in 7

If that isn't a sign for the OP to log off for the day I'm not sure what is

 

[Score08]

Bruins in 4, hampus is going to be the beast at the feast and devour the kitten meat.

 

[Gentle Man]

I don't like to bet/vote on these things.

I just hope both teams have fun and play hard, or something.

If you know you know

14% is too high, but that’s imo.

 

[NewtJorden]

Bruins in 5

[Leksand]

Could Tkachuck vs Marchand be an epic matchup?

Anyone has any idea if coaches will seek or avoid their respective lines being on at the same time?

 

[BlueSeal]

It's either going to be a sweep by Boston or the Cats take it in 7.

 

[Master P]

I think the Panthers could surprise some people. All they need is decent goaltending.

 

[BlueSeal]

If goaltending for the Cats shows up, they might steal one...or more.

 

[Number8]

Tkachuk hits 50+ PIMS this series alone.

I misread that at first and thought you said 50+ Points. Thought “Holy shit, this is gonna be a high scoring series!”
