HF Habs: Out of Town Thread: 2025 Playoff edition

[holy]

Figs are winning tonight, to the displeasure of those here who celebrated too early.

Sounds like the other side is celebrating early now.

 

[CrazyBob]

Not yet. Stuart Skinner ain’t bringing him to promise land.

Skinner stats in games 4 and onward are actually pretty elite. They almost won it last year so hes not as bad as people say

 

[windycity]

Lol hockey is probably the only sport where you go from punching someone in the face to hugging him the next game

Next minute lol

 

[windycity]

How do you know about him being a bad person ?
Like I said I don’t like him as a hockey player , but what do we know as a person ?

He tried to hurt our Jakey Wakey so he's Satan incarnate

He’s a an open Christian that did ads making fun of his hit on Jake Evans. We do know that about him.

 

[Non Player Canadiens]

I hope the Laughs lose in triple OT after fumbling a 3-0 lead tonight, I want this to be the loss that breaks their clown fans for good. Irreparable damage that follows you your whole life type of shit.

haha yeah, except, they're already there. they've had so many heartbreaking game 7 losses already

He will put up the odd solid game but his consistency is not good

So will Oilers beat Dallas again and do a redo from last season?

If Oilers win against Dallas, and Florida beat Toronto, Oilers will face either teams they've last loss to in the finals. Florida last year and Carolina in 2006.

 

[The Great Weal]

I'm very much looking forward to a Dallas/Edmonton rematch. I feel like the best is yet to come for Drai and McDavid this postseason. Dallas's top players this postseason are Rantanen/Harley/Oettinger who weren't on the team or struggled in the post season last year. Oilers will win if Dallas' depth in Robertson/Duchene/Marchment/Benn don't play much better.

With the salary cap going up and teams like Anaheim tired of being bad it seems most teams are ready to spend.

The 4 legit free agents;

Like Gorton and Fitzgerald said, this will be the summer of RFAs.

hahahah and i was cursing the hell out of him and wh i dislike him on the ice.
But half the league does dirty hits, heck chara hit was 100 times worst .
That means nothing to their office personality.

I don't think you will see one offer sheet because the cap is rising exponentially.

Heiskanen is getting back in game shape and I think Dallas has a huge advantage in goal.

Well you could say the same for teams who are looking to send in offer sheets.

And matching is not just about having enough room. It's how much you value the player vs the cap hit that is being proposed.

1 - Not every team is going to necessarily be willing to increase spending.

2- One GM could have plenty of room and rather lose a guy than overpay him by 2-3M fo internal reasons.

Dallas had tons of trouble with the Oilers forecheck last year and it will probably be similar this year. Oettinger isn't so hot against the Oilers.

I hope Edmonton beats them and here is why i think they can- they have more than 2 players up front now...they have skill, size and grit. If goaltending holds up Edmonton has a good chance.

Not sure what to expect from tonight's game 7. On the one hand I'd maybe give a slight edge to the Leafs since they won game 6 and are at home tonight but on the other hand they looked like crap at home for game 5 so...

The Leafs did a great job of shutting down any high danger scoring chances and blocked a ton of shots in game 6 so Florida is gonna have to bring far more intensity and get to these high danger scoring areas far more tonight.

Woll had a fairly easy game 6 facing mostly perimeter shots without traffic in front so Florida is gonna have to get in his face and make his night far more uncomfortable tonight if they want to advance.

Should be a good game and I won't be sad if it gets to OT.

 

[Tyson]

I think Toronto wins game 7. The way they shut down Florida in game 6 tells me that Florida might be out of gas.

 

[vokiel]

Go Laughs Go! Brings us teh entertainment win or lose!

 

[McGees]

Florida looks tired but hope they have one last beat down in them.

 

[HabbyGuy]

f*** THE LEAFS!

 

[Tyson]

Florida looks tired but hope they have one last beat down in them.

Even if Florida wins tonight they won't get past the next round

 

[Stive Morgan]

Not the biggest fan of Biz (don't hate him either) but that was actually pretty funny

 

[McGees]

Ya I agree. But still hope Leafs lose. Can’t stand their fans and media bias.
