Exactly the way both the Blues and Jets have been playing over the last few months.  Jets seem to be incapable of holding on to a lead.  This result just might give them a continued case of the yips.

And wtf CBJ.  That was an impressive comeback.  Vasilevsky looked .... human.  And beatable.

The Islanders/Pens game was awesome!  Those fans are fucking rabid.  I heard the announce crew say that this is the first playoff series the Isles have had home-ice advantage since 1988!?!?!?   :omg:

I hope Vegas gets swept.

It's SO much fun to watch


Exactly the way both the Blues and Jets have been playing over the last few months.  Jets seem to be incapable of holding on to a lead.  This result just might give them a continued case of the yips.

As the game wore on and the 'fresh' feel of the playoffs at home started to wear from the Jets play.....the Blues settled in and started to play their game. The third period was really fun to watch....Jets had zero answer to what the Blues were bringing and were it not for their goalie making three or four incredible saves that score could have been pretty lopsided.

Binnington made a handful of saves as well that I'd bet my left arm Jake Allen would have just watched go into the net. Kid has been fantastic.

Oh I agree, the Pens really need to not make stupid mistakes and play patience against NY. They failed in that last night for sure.

The team is letting Rask down tonight.   The Leafs have that long pass play all the time. You know the coaching staff planned for it.  The players are letting playoff hockey get to them.

We got some high scoring games right now in the West.  Jets/Blues is at 3-3 and have been trading leads at the end of two.  Golden Knights had the Sharks 3-0 and could have gotten them off-balanced for the rest of the game/series/life, but now it's 3-3 at the end of one.

Blues take game 2. Up 2-0. Outside of the (2) PP goals Winnipeg had to keep them in the game Blues stifled the Jets all night.

On one hand, if Tampa wins the Cup, the Rangers get another first round pick. On the other hand, I will be so elated if Tampa gets swept out of the playoffs by a team who has never won a playoff series.

Tampa ain't getting swept.  I think their overconfidence is what is doing them in so far, but I expect them to get it together in game 3 and get back to being the team they were all season.

I hope so but I would have expected them to rebound in Game 2. They looked lifeless again. You can see that CBJ wants to win AND play.

Kadri again took himself out of a series.  Nevermind the Leafs had momentum being down 3-1 with his goal.

DeBrusk took out Kadri with a dirty knee to knee hit earlier in the game, so I say give them both a suspension and move on.
