The only team I care about in the playoffs are the Sharks.

Series could be over by next Thursday. Oil in 5, maybe 6.

Hey Schecter. what does everyone up there think of Lucic?

It's mixed. Most fans like his play, but loathe his contract. Worst oilers contract since K-Lowe backed a dump truck full of greasy bills to Horcoff's house. I think his contract will put this team in serious cap trouble in about 2 years when Leon and McD's new deals kick in.

His size is nice for playing in the pacific.

I'm looking forward to that Blue Jackets and Penguins matchup. Columbus's defense is excellent, and it'll be fun to see Crosby try to score on them...if he doesn't hack someone with his stick first

How the hell are the B's favored against the Sens?

Hitchcock to be named Stars coach.

Their D is beaten up - Karlsson isn't at full health. However, I have a feeling that Anderson will steal a game or two.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #503 on:** April 12, 2017, 10:41:24 AM »

We have 2 starting D-men out as well (Krug & Carlo) and they are starting a rookie from BU with no games played in the NHL.

Rangers, Pens, and Bruins all win/winning, ugh, what a terrible night.

Rattlehead · « **Reply #509 on:** April 12, 2017, 07:48:42 PM »

I was literally just about to post something to that effect; every team I wanted to win has lost so far (or will lose)

Columbus just looks totally outmatched by Pittsburgh... this series will be over quick.

SystematicThought · « **Reply #510 on:** April 12, 2017, 08:17:39 PM »

In a game where the Bruins don't even get a shot on net in the second period, the Sens somehow manage to lose the game

I only saw the 1st period, but Columbus totally outplayed them. Looks like the 2nd period was the opposite, except the Pens scored when they dominated play.

Let's Go Blues!!

I actually missed the 1st period, go figure

They didn't look very good from what I saw, aside from a nice goal off of a bad Pittsburgh turnover and a few decent chances in the last few minutes when they got desperate.

gmillerdrake · « **Reply #513 on:** April 12, 2017, 11:06:58 PM »

Can't remember the last time a St. Louis goalie legitimately stole a game in the playoffs. Jake Allen did tonight.

KevShmev · « **Reply #514 on:** April 12, 2017, 11:10:06 PM »

Damn right. I am going to be tired tomorrow, but at least they won.

Rangers looked solid last night, that was a fun game to watch

Nick · « **Reply #517 on:** April 13, 2017, 06:46:38 AM »

And the night ended with a full ugh. Only one match I can be happy with either team winning (Blues/Wild), and every other game went opposite of what I'd like.

Two things.

Ottawa needs the win more.

Yeah, they basically put on a clinic in the 2nd and 3rd last night.

If Lundqvist keeps playing the way he did last night, the Rangers have a legitimate shot at making a run.

They played a great game, but I see the likelihood of the Rangers lifting the cup this year about on par with the Flyers lifting it.

He saved them in the 1st for sure, but didn't have too many difficult stops after that. IMO, Price out-played him, just let a bit of a soft one by.
