Predict your teams surprise/usung hero for the playoffs?

Ridly Greig. Has settled nicely into a shut down role this season and has come on strong down the stretch. Has always reminded me of JG Pageau in ways, and could see him having a similar impact in the post season.

Which is cool because we drafted Greig with the pick we got for Pageau.

This a thousand times.

I have a feeling that Greig is going to be a playoff beast.

#91 Jets has opened up room to take that next step

 

[Avs2022]

Ross Colton and Parker Kelley for the Avs.

I'd like to say Miles Wood, but I don't want to start laughing at my own post.

He was a mixed bag in 2023 for us, he was god awful in the Rags series and he got caved in the Canes series but he scored some goals in the latter. Wouldn't shock me if he had a random good playoff season for you guys.

Would absolutely LOVE IT if Alexander "Boom" Nikishin came to Raleigh and immediately had game changing impact.

A lot of that will depend on RBA's willingness to deal with his f*** ups which 100% happen for a player adjusting to the NA ice especially a dman. If he can shelter Nikishin and make his time be mostly on PP1 then Nikishin will flourish.

Uvis Ballinskis

No one gets his boys snacks from the press box like Uvis

 

[Master P]

Gage Goncalves. His confidence keeps growing with every game.

I think he'll have a big moment or two.

 

[Papamilo]

Jakub Dobes will replace Sam Dobes either injured or after a big blowout and never give back the crease .....

 

[MCR74]

Knies or McMann for the Leafs.

 

[Boud]

Greig-Pinto-Amadio

Someone on that line will score a big goal.

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

I'm gonna go with Tanev, Knies, Stolarz.

Hoping Rielly finds something, don't know if McCabe is healthy?

Guys that can dig deep when it matters is what I'm hoping for.

 

[Finnflash]

For the jets Nino

 

[LeafsNation149]

Morgan Rielly is about to go BEAST MODE

 

[OmniSens]

Ottawa - Perron

 

[Zerotonine]

Jeff Skinner goes off in his first ever playoffs

 

[SirJW]

Kings - Foegele

 

[Ghetty Green]

Alex Laferriere

 

[MrLunatik]

If we make it... Ryan Huska

 

[edevils]

Ross Colton and Parker Kelley for the Avs.

Miles is the fastest skater in the league.

Miles Wood proably won't see the ice if the Aves are healthy

 

[TatteredTornNFrayed]

I'll say Coyle

 

[cneely]

Perfetti is about to open some eyes I think.

He's a carbon copy of Marc Savard, who was a good playoff performer... when he got there.

The Godfather Claude Giroux

 

[VaporTrail]

Sabres - Zach Benson...People are going to be surprised how well the 20 year old does on the golf course in a week.
