Yea, Canes vs Avs looks like a safe bet.  :-\ I'd love to see the Canes knocked out before the finals, because mainly, Brind Amour's face offends me.  :snicker:

* Buffalo just tied up the series with the Habs!


Oooookaaaaaay.

Ducks lose in OT.  PFffffffff.


Guess who was out of position, missed coverage on his man (the goal scorer) for this GWG?  John Q Dylan Carlson.
His offensive instincts to abandon his position and prematurely head up ice, left his area of ice wide open for the GWG.
All 5, well at least 4 Ducks failed to do their job or recover, but JC is the right D here and the crease and left corner of the net is WIDE open for the guy to stand there alone and score from.  It's not like the man snuck in behind the D from the blue line either, this man comes from the low right corner, across bottom of face-off circle, across the crease and turns and plants by the side of net and waits on the puck.  JC is up between the top of face off circles heading up ice.  Not Johnny's fault, but sure was his responsibility and postiion.
This of course happens to the best players on every team, and when i first watched this I did not know who was on the ice and though..Oh, that's terrible coverage by the Ducks and the D man is way out of position....then i watch the replay several times and thought...that's our Johhny.

Bummer they caught JC (and the rest of the Ducks) out of position.. I don't think anyone in the playoffs plays/has much Defense? Least not from what I've seen. Lots of offense and let the goalie handle the D. lol


And it's official. They are now the Minnesota Toast!  ::) Up 3-0 and lose 4-3 in OT.. Gave up 2 late in the 3rd.. Guess I'll pull for Vegas now, to help our draft position. Cause neither one is gonna beat the Avs. (Unless Makar is actually hurt? That may make it interesting)

yeah this playoffs has been a drag.  Nobody i wanted to win is winning.  Maybe Buffalo can pull it out, but not sure i really care, other than they have been so long without success it'd nice to see.  They just don't look all that inspiring to me.  I have little interest in watching Canes beat up on whoever the next victim is.

Habs win 6-3. These scores are nuts. Does anyone play defense anymore? 6 ga's in a game 5 of the playoffs and I don't think any were empty net.


Now Vegas scores a minute into their game. These teams aint serious. lol

Colorado scores with 3 -1 /2 minutes in the game to make it 3-2, then again with 80 or so seconds left with the goalie pulled to tie it and force OT, then taking the prize in OT is a painful way for Minnesota to go out, especially when they were up 3-0 in this game.
Colorado just looks like they don't want to go away.

Yea, leading 3-0 in a playoff game and lose 4-3 is weak af.. But the real story should be the condition of Makar? He left that game holding his arm/shoulder. Straight down the tunnel.. Haven't heard or followed up on his status, but if he's out it could get interesting in the west finals. Though, I still don't think VGK are much threat.

Habs got smoked in game 6, after being up 3-1, at home. Now they're mad.  :rofl:  The scores of these games are a trip.

Was hoping the Flyers would catch em' rusty, but that didn't happen. Maybe one of these guys can. I don't think they've lost a game yet, in the post season, have they?  :(

Nope. Carolina made NHL history by sweeping back to back rounds.
