Ferraro and McDonough are merciless on Tampa. How the tables have turned.
 
I love it. I am so tired of Tampa. They have some great talent, but the 1-3-1 and 1-4 trap is disgusting and deserves to lose, and Vasilevsky with his giant pads is overrated because of the defense/trap he plays behind. Also Tampa, as a whole is overrated - they won the bubble Cup and then beat Montreal in a “shouldn’t have ever happened Cup”.

Nischushkin is getting the bag this summer. Sucks because I'd LOVE him riding shotgun with Zibanejad.
Nuke with either line, but in particular being the RW for Panarin would be unreal. He has the skill to match the grind that the other players that have worked with him have.

Yeah. I don't think we would have stood a chance at all if we ended up beating TB. This wouldn't be fun to watch at all.
Got our experience and got out of dodge of the machine that is Colorado.

Drury will need in inject speed into the lineup as the young players progress. Luckily there are a few really good skaters in the system that should crack the roster soon.
 
Tampa is making the Eastern Conference look bad. They look worse than maybe every opponent the Avs have played other than Nashville.

Not really. The Eastern conference playoffs were a war. The Avs had a cakewalk to the Finals. Don't think for a moment all the rest they had isn't paying off now. They swept 2 teams....Tampa or the Rangers had to walk the gauntlet.

These playoffs are his coming out party. He's really never impressed me before, but he sure is now.

Can McDonough and Ferraro stop bring up game 3?

I'm going to lose my lunch and dinner if it happens again.

Yeah but playing 6 or 7 games every series isn't some badge of honor. Avs took care of their business with the double sweep using the minimum amount of games.

Nish as a UFA should be interesting. He's obviously in a perfect environment this season and playing accordingly - how many teams are willing to offer $$ and term in the belief that this is his level moving forward?
