GDT: Second Round of the 2025 Playoffs

[CallMeShaft]

So it's looking like only 1 game for tomorrow, but 2 games each night for an entire week afterwards.

 

[x Tame Impala]

Wsh vs Car--> Wsh in 6
Leafs vs Panthers --> Panthers in 5

Wpg vs Dallas--> Wpg in 6
Vgk vs Edm --> Vgk in 6

official bracket is already set but this is what i've got based on our options now. Helleybuyck can't be this bad again unless he's got the first case of the yips I've seen in my life as a playoff goalie. It's obviously mental so maybe he snaps out of it. Otherwise Dallas steps right over them.

Never count on Carolina. Florida looked great against Tampa while Toronto isn't deadly this year. Maybe if Matthews was playing at his 70g Hart level but he's not. The Knights are better than the Kings and the Oilers are giving up 4 goals a game.

ah, but you're forgetting the most important game of all

Dallas getting Roberts and Heiskanen back... I take Dallas, and even without them I would take Dallas.

All game 7’s let’s go

 

[No Fun Shogun]

You know those videos of douchebags getting deservedly punched to their complete shock that make the rounds online every now and then?

That was the Blues loss in a nutshell for me.

That schadenfreude was so sweet I need to get a blood glucose monitor now.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I can't stand St Louis teams or St Louis fans. Chicken soup for the soul for sure.

except for Canes-Caps cause Strome is gonna sweep

 

[Mrfenn92]

Nylander en fuego

 

[JaegerDice]

It feels odd to cheer for the Leafs

 

[MTU34]

So as expected Florida goes Barkov against Matthews/Marner. Willy stys feasting on the matchup game here

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Welp Panthers and Bob look terrible

4-1 Leafs

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Stolarz out after hit to hed

Woll in

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Panthers cut it down to two

Would love for some absurd comeback

As for Stolarz

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

One goal game by that guy

Panthers pull within 1

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Stolarz is definitely concussed.

And Panthers cut it to one.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Woll isn't tracking whatsoever.

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

Bob has been huge in the 3rd.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Knies with dagger on breakaway

What a goal

 

[Hattrick Kane]

That goal wasn’t Bob’s fault but he hasn’t been close to good enough.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Well Ekblad is back next game and Stolarz is probably out. This series is gonna have some sloppy ass goaltending.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

What a fun one.

 

[Il Stugotz]

It looked like Bennett barely touched him. Maybe a combo of the first period shot that knocked his mask off and the Bennett elbow?

Yeah I didn’t think it was much. Concussions are weird. You see some guys get absolutely blown up and they’re fine within a day. And then you see some guys take a minor bump and it’s months until they’re normal again.
