OOT Scoreboard 2023 playoff edition

[Blackjack]

Vegas was in a weak conference and got an eastern team in the finals that goalied their way there. Florida was a Marchand breakaway in game 5 away from being done after 1 win, and they had an absurd overtime record that got them here.

Sucks to see Vegas win, they’ve been insanely reckless with their roster moves, treated players like shit, and have zero prospect pool. They’re going to more or less luck their way to a cup.

Agree with all of this. Vegas probably gets beaten by half the teams in the East. Florida plowed the road for them.

They will be bad for a while in the bot too distant future, I definitely don't agree with how they've gone about building their roster.

But outside of the Fleury thing I don't really understand the treating players badly point that always gets brought up. And if Fleury hadn't had a fluke one year renaissance he would have retired already and no one would have blinked.

Ok now it's probably over

I hope Spencer Knightvfinds his way back .... they need to put Bob out to pasture

Vegas is leaving no doubt. Hats off to the players and their incredible effort.

Their management can kick rocks however.

does philly hold the record for quickest expansion team to win a cup right now with 8 seasons?

(not going back to the early 1900s to check any of that)

Ya Philly was like 7 or 8 seasons. Vegas will now surpass them, barring an epic collapse.

 

[njdevils1982]

thats a goal

Karma can be a bitch, right Matthew? Eichel's still playing and will hoist the Cup. You're not and won't. That being said, I'd still want him on the Devils.

i almost want to bring on a main board infraction upon myself.....holding back for now

This may be one of the most lopsided cup clinching games I can remember since the Kings beat us in 2012.

I can’t remember the 2021 clincher, was that a big blowout? The 2021 Canadiens were one of the worst cup finalists I’ve ever seen, so it wouldn’t surprise me if they were blown out of the building.

Edit - Nope. Even that was only a 1-0 win for Tampa.

Synonyms for embarrassing?

This is def pathetic

Blues-Boston was pretty decisive from what I remember but that was a weird ass series anyway with almost every road team winning
