Yeah it’s a bummer.
-
Didn't even know there was a game last night
-
The Habs booked their ticket to the Cup Finals. Isles/Bolts tied 3-3, so it's a coin toss who the Habs will be facing off against.
-
The Habs throughout history are the team with the most experience winning Cups, so if a team is going to do it then it's probably them! I'm just happy the Isles knocked out the damn Bruins. I'd be happy to see any of the four remaining teams win the Cup.
-
Fleury was a Vezina finalist this year and won the award (well, co-won it with his teammate) for fewest goals allowed in the regular season. At age 36. That's pretty impressive! I wouldn't have expected Fleury to stick in the league quite this long, or to continue to be this effective this late in his career.

Habs are up 3-0 on the Jets
-
-
Leafs gonna blow game 7, I can see it coming a mile away Bruins up 1-0 on the Isles
-
Thanks for nothing, Minnesota
-
Just two more first round series left to finish: G. Knights / Wild going to game 7 (c'mon Minnesota!) and Leafs lead Habs 3-2. The Avs and Jets are going to be well rested by the time the second round series get going.
-
EDM and WSH down, PIT up against elimination I hope the Isles knock out the Pens, but I will of course cheer for either team over the damn Bruins. I'm happy for the Jets Didn't watch any of the games, but it looks like they were mostly close ones. They didn't win many regular season games vs. the Oilers, so it's cool to see them turn around and sweep them in the playoffs.
-
Ugh, the clip of the knee to the head of Tavares was not easy to watch. Brutal. Hope he’s alright.
-
They might have treated some playoff teams differently, but it looks like the Canucks had games against a couple playoff teams in this final busy stretch... so maybe the league wouldn’t have treated the other teams differently? I guess it helps that a chunk of these seemingly meaningless games were against the Flames. Neither team was playoff bound. Most of these guys are probably hitting a beach or golf course tomorrow
-
Why are they even bothering with those games..? The Canucks and Flames aren't even in the playoff picture. Unless there are draft implications, regular season games are pointless now
-
Oh, I didn’t know about the re-seeding. That could be an interesting wrinkle.
-
We got some playoffs going on now. (It was news to me ) Because of how the divisions were rearranged this year, this could lead to some Cup Finals match ups that normally would not be possible. That's interesting. Imagine the Leafs finally making it to the Cup Finals, only to be devastated by the Bruins yet again It's also cool that a Canadian team will for sure make it to the Semifinals (and then probably get whooped by the Avs or Golden Knights ) I have almost zero interest in the right-hand side of the bracket. Carolina, Nashville, Florida, Tampa == But I would cheer for the Caps if they make it out of their division. I like Ovi.

Games against the Canucks are good for what ails you Just for funsies I checked Auston Matthews' splits. He's tagged the Canucks for 9 goals this season, but only 10 points overall. Guess he likes playing the Sens a bit better (9 goals, 16 points overall).
-
Wow! 1 PPG is still considered a benchmark of a good (very good? or at least very consistent?) player, right? Or has thinking on that changed in recent years? I'm so out of touch with hockey. But anyways, he's 1.85 PPG on the season so far according to hockey-ref. That seems pretty impressive to me.
-
Wow, that's pretty damn impressive. #1 in assists and points, #2 in goals. #1 in hockey-ref's goals created stat (can't recall having heard of that one before). McDavid and his teammate Draisaitl are #1 and #2 in PPG. But I guess none of it matters much if they don't have some success in the playoffs.
-
Leafs... win the Cup? That ain't happening any time soon. They always find a way to lose
-
The Panthers and Lightning are #2 and #4 in the league-wide standings Also the Leafs are #3, I'm not used to seeing that. In recent years, #3 in the reverse standings would seem more appropriate... (that's the Sens right now! )
-
Just took a look at the standings for the first time in weeks (maybe the first time this season for divisions other than the North) ... since when were the Panthers one of the best teams in the league!? I barely recognize any of the names on the roster, though I'm sure that would be the case for many other teams as well at this point. If I sort it from youngest to oldest then I know a few of the names at the bottom of the list, that's it.
-
Are the Canucks going to survive the season?
-
I haven't been following the Leafs but I guess they're doing OK because my Leafs-fan-friends aren't crying everyday Just took a quick look at the standings and despite being in second place it doesn't look they're scoring a ton (eg compared to Edmonton, Vancouver, and Montreal). I kinda thought they were supposed to be a more powerful offensive team. Their goal differential is positive and they're winning games though. My Jets are right behind them
