Caps, Kings, Preds, PDO Canucks - can’t remember the last time we saw this many terrible teams in the playoffs
Would really rather they didn’t. Rags are not a likeable groupWashington is using Dylan McIlrath in a playoff game in 2024. I mean... what the f***?
This Capitals team is so bad The fact that NYR aren't beating them by 3-4 goals each game is also a stain on them. Figure it out you bums.
Edmonton has a good chance this season. Very easy path to conference final. We have to stop them.Caps, Kings, Preds, PDO Canucks - can’t remember the last time we saw this many terrible teams in the playoffs
Only way they don’t make the WCF is if big Z blows up McDavid to the moon and backEdmonton has a good chance this season. Very easy path to conference final. We have to stop them.
I agree. We can hope.Only way they don’t make the WCF is if big Z blows up McDavid to the moon and back
Oof... Rittich in net for LA? Yikes.
Not if the Rangers play the way they did in this series.Rags vs Canes round 2 should be interesting
On the other hand, having easy path to conference finals can back fire for Edmonton because the other team is gonna be more battle tested. One of Dallas, Vegas, Avs assuming Avs do advance to 2nd round and if relatively healthy, they’re gonna be more ready for a tough battle than the OilersEdmonton has a good chance this season.

That's actually true, as long as we don't lose every key player to these battles.On the other hand, having easy path to conference finals can back fire for Edmonton because the other team is gonna be more battle tested.

Interesting. That series was too boring to pay much attention. Was under the impression the Rags were not a particularly good 5 on 5 team during the regular season and that doesn’t seem to have changed in the playoffsNot if the Rangers play the way they did in this series.
At 5v5 Washington actually outshot (79-73), out-chanced (78-59), and had more high danger chances (29-22) than the Rangers.
NYR scored 6 PPGs and 2 SHGs this series. Over half their goals on special teams. Against Carolina they will have to be MUCH better.
I personally have long thought the Rangers are not as good as their regular season record.Interesting. That series was too boring to pay much attention. Was under the impression the Rags were not a particularly good 5 on 5 team during the regular season and that doesn’t seem to have changed in the playoffs
Only two contending teams in the division. And due to wild card seeding Vegas plays in the other. Its not that much of a change. In 2022 the Oilers had a bye into the semis and hadn't been tested at actually playing defense in the post season.On the other hand, having easy path to conference finals can back fire for Edmonton because the other team is gonna be more battle tested.
