Sweet. Only another 10 hours until the game starts. Yes I’m exaggerating but seriously, these start times are ridiculous. Lol

The Oilers really want to test the hockey gods...First that country midget and now Campbell back ughh.
The hell for? Pikard is more than capable. That’s some bs right there. I don’t want campbell anywhere near this team.

This is my thought regarding Nashville fans after their collapse. They should just call off work on Monday in Nashville. That drive or walk to work would be dangerous.

Exaggerating but hooboy. Wouldn't want to be in that drive home after the game.

ps how is this different than other mondays?

I hate to say it, but it's kind of the only way a Canadian team can get far. Extreme luck. You'll never get non biased officiating. Or any other intangibles.

This is pretty false. The Habs went deep a few years ago.
McDavid winning a cup is good for the NHL. It's ludacris ppl think there's some hidden agenda. Just nonsense

To play Devil's Advocate, would the Habs have gone as deep if they weren't playing Canadian teams on the way to the finals?

It was the first finals appearance by a Canadian team in 10 years or something, no?

Well the math says something is OFF, so maybe its the weather then. The chances of a Canadian team not winning for 30 years straight, all things being equal (if they are), is approximately 0.1%. And getting lower every year. (Actually lower than that even, as that is based on 32 teams).

Canadian teams have made the finals a bunch of times though

I'd even say the pre cap years shouldn't really count because of the currency and spending discrepancy

That might hold some weight if every Canadian team weren't poorly managed in some way.

I really don't think its some grand conspiracy. Look at how most Canadian teams have been run over those years, defintly not some of the best managed teams.
