It’s really a shame one has to lose. They are the best two teams with maybe Tampa in the mix.Definitely more of the series I was expecting since Game 1.

Winnipeg was a team I slept on in the first round for a lot of the same reasons they’re getting skinned alive this round: their depth below their top 6 sucks forwards sucks and their defence is Josh Morrisey and 5 other guys. The only reason it worked against Edmonton is they’re even thinner and Hellebuyck is at least a Vezina-caliber goalie.Still. Montreal is a garbage team. They're not good, and yet. They're absolutely smoking Winnipeg right now. And they knocked out Toronto who many (lol) considered a Cup contender.
Not the Oilers if they got to play with the usual CA teams, AZ and the two western Canada neighbors.It's quite possibly that with a normal season with normal divisions, Edmonton Winnipeg and Montreal all miss the playoffs.
What in the world is the goalie doing therePoint shot just went straight through Grubauer to the back of the net. Woof.
I've never played the game at all, let alone tended goal, so I have no clue what Grubauer was looking for there. Was he trying to cheat on a potential redirect and just got caught off-guard by a direct shot?What in the world is the goalie doing there
When you're watching a game on TV, it's constant back and forth; when you're at a game live, the speed of the game is incredible...................trust me, when you are actually on the ice, the speed is ramped up even more, I think he literally lost track of the puck.................it happens.I've never played the game at all, let alone tended goal, so I have no clue what Grubauer was looking for there.

Amen to that.Boy it's amazing what happens when you get pucks to the net vs making 900 passes.
And right on cue; pass, pass, shoot, goal Nordiques.Amen to that.
4 goals on 16 shots from Vegas....................Colorado could not clear the puck at the end of the period and it cost them after tying it up a few minutes prior.what the hell is happening?
Imagine the Islanders trying to go toe to toe with either of these teams with that grind it out style they play, I don't see a lot of juicy rebounds or goals down low outworking an overmatched defenseman.what the hell is happening?
It's incredibly entertaining; ie, playoff hockey at it's finest.oh, I'm watching. It's just madness
For sure. Hope it goes 7. Great stuff.It's incredibly entertaining; ie, playoff hockey at it's finest.
Think that’s gonna be tough now. Flower could gag it, but Colorado doesn’t look good enough right now.For sure. Hope it goes 7. Great stuff.
Given the travel restrictions to Canada, quite hard.When you're watching a game on TV, it's constant back and forth; when you're at a game live, the speed of the game is incredible...................trust me, when you are actually on the ice, the speed is ramped up even more, I think he literally lost track of the puck.................it happens.
I find it absurd that these two powerhouses have to play each other now, then whoever survives gets to play a team with 23 less points than them in the Stanley Cup semi final.
As tremendous as playoff hockey is, this league sucks at getting the playoffs right.
In a season cut short/played only within each division, they should have just lined the teams up 1-16 and go from there.............I mean how hard is that?
He’s 3rd all time in wins and has 2 Cups. He’s a lock.Is MAF a Hall of Famer or does he need another Cup?
It's almost like being an idiot can hurt your team. Weird. And Palmieri smirks.3rd time in 4 years Kadri is eliminated while suspended. That's impressive
I find Vegas's style exciting. They kind of remind me of the Big Bad Bruins from 10 years ago (shit that makes me feel old).I don't hate Vegas like I do the other 3 teams that are left, but man, it's getting kind of old watching teams that actually play an exciting hockey style get knocked out in the 2nd round to teams that man handle them.
Go Vegas, I guess.
