Habs don’t impress me.

As long as they don't take it lightly, this should be a quicker series, 5ish games, but they're going to have to execute at a high level like they have for month long stretches.

Now we know. Get some, Caps. Eliminate and move on to rd2.

 

[notDkristich]

So when does the playoff schedule come out?

earliest possible game 1 is Sunday. after that <shrug>

 

[Liam Smith]

Gonna be a fun one

Three very spicy first round match-ups IMO. LAK/EDM, TBL/FLA and COL/DAL. Meh to the rest.

Daaaaaaamn those are spicy.

Stars are done for. Avs are going to skate circles around them without Miro. Jason Robertson left the game in the second period tonight, could barely put any weight on one of his legs. Things are getting really bad in Dallas.

Brace yourselves. Habs fans are coming.

hopefully the mods are ready to clear the clowns out

 

[RedRocking]

LAK/EDM round IV is kinda meh to me. Tho I like the Kings this year. Rantanen’s revenge isn’t looking so hot at the moment.

Battle of Ontario could be fun. Battle of FL should be great.

Hope we dispatch the Habs like the young Leafs in ‘17

We should absolutely bully this Habs team. There is no excuses, we are the far better team

Think Toronto Ottawa is intriguing too.

 

[SherVaughn30]

CBJ's have a good young goalie in Jet Greaves. I expect them to make the playoffs next season, as their goaltending was their biggest issue throughout the season.

 

[SherVaughn30]

It certainly is. Leafs were 0-3 vs the Sens during the regular season!

 

[twabby]

I think the series is going to come down to whether Washington can score more goals than Montreal 4 out of 7 times. I think if they can do that they'll win the series. If not? I think they could be in trouble.

If we play the right way, then I have good confidence in the Caps. I think it's very important to win Game 1, especially after being swept against by the Rags last season!

Been reading a lot of takes that it could instead come down to whether Washington can allow fewer goals than Montreal 4 out of 7 times.

 

[Silky mitts]

Vrana’s numbers on Nashville are horrifying, outscored 0.5 to 5.7 per 60 5 on 5 with him on ice, -11 in 12 games 1 g 1 a going into tonight

if you'd said "much" I would have asked you if you were doing a Shania Twain impression

She was quite a honey back in the day

 

[EroCaps]

At least they avoided CBS. The Blue Jackets were a wagon.

Heard they have a good golf squad this time of year...

 

[pman25]

I wanted no part of that Jet Greaves. Surprised he wasn’t playing sooner, his stats seems pretty steady. Might just be the real deal

 

[PlushMinus]

ooh not nice!

I did use this on a couple of Boston fans a week ago though and it was very satisfying
