Wasn’t the hand pass game 6, where Ullmark was giving up everything they came his way? Even if that goal is allowed no doubt in my mind the Bruins lose that lead. Swayman should have come in after the 2nd in that game.Or the fucking “hand pass”.

I think the 2012 LA Kings run was more out of nowhere and more impressive. They were the 8th seed in the West, went 12-2 through the western conference playoffs, taking out the President's Trophy winning Canucks in 5 in the first round, the 109 point President's trophy runner up St. Louis Blues in a sweep in round 2, then sweeping division winning Phoenix in the WCF. They were +19 through the conference playoffs, had an 8 game winning streak mixed in.I can’t recall anything like this Panthers team.
oh, and eff them too.
Yes. Non-stop motor, constantly, aggressively, almost recklessly applying pressure. And not in an overly dirty way.On the plus side of variance with a hot keeper, but you know what? They outwork you. Hockey more than the other three sports is one where you can overcome a lot by just getting in the fucking corners and digging and grinding.
But Bob is the difference.
Or Pastrnak in an elimination OT, faced with a yawning blocker side of the cage, hitting only the shaft of Bobrovsky's stick.Or the fucking “hand pass”.
They still didn't have to take out a juggernaut like this year's Bruins. Though having that happen to the Canucks right after the 2011 Finals is well, something.I think the 2012 LA Kings run was more out of nowhere and more impressive.

Florida is 12-4, +7. They are 6-0 in OT and 9-1 in one goal games. It's a ridiculous run of luck. That Kings team legitimately destroyed everything in their path. The Panthers are flipping coins and having a ridiculous run of having it come up heads for them.
UGHOr Pastrnak in an elimination OT, faced with a yawning blocker side of the cage, hitting only the shaft of Bobrovsky's stick.
On the flip side, I don't think Florida is a typical 8-seed. They were the juggernaut last year, 122 point Presidents Trophy winner. They lost some of the fringe/deadline guys (Giroux, Chiarot, Marchment) and made the big Huberdeau/Weegar for Tkachuk deal but otherwise ran back the same team. I think their true talent was probably closer to 105-110 points in the regular season than 92. After their bye week they played the final 30 games in a 104 point pace.They still didn't have to take out a juggernaut like this year's Bruins. Though having that happen to the Canucks right after the 2011 Finals is well, something.
So you’re taking the under?After Tkachuk scores two OT winners in the finals, Ill take him over anyone.
It would have put them up two. I would take my chances on them holding the lead. The call was a HUGE momentum shift.Wasn’t the hand pass game 6, where Ullmark was giving up everything they came his way? Even if that goal is allowed no doubt in my mind the Bruins lose that lead. Swayman should have come in after the 2nd in that game.
I just checked and you are correct. I was misremembering. I'd still take it.No, It would've put them up 1. It was 2-2 when that happened. Tkachuk scored a few minutes later to make it 3-2 which is where it was until all hell broke loose in the 3rd period.
Hmm. Think Ill take the over actuallySo you’re taking the under?
Brian Noonan scored that goal.Has anybody in the history of hockey ever been as clutch as Tkachuk? And don't come at me with Messier.
Was just telling my wife the same thing. He's really good.Sean is great calling hockey.
He looks like hes committing down way too early.If you want to feel better about the Celtics game, watch this Knights-Stars game. Oettinger isn’t at fault for tonight, but he ain’t helping either.
