Tampa wins until halak is back

Won't happen when halak plays. Well actually it might. The scrub backup did his damage already

 

[Christien]

Remember I wanted us to take Kucherov so bad back in the day. It hurts he's about to get paid

 

[JPE123]

Kucherov has been so impressive so far in playoffs

 

[irishock]

Yessss

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Yessss

I hope you don't hate the islanders in the future because they costed you 800$

Blues are coming out of the West.

Hopefully they win unless the islanders go there. But they won't without halak

Caps about to fight for their lives. I still have a feeling that series is going the distance. No matter what I'm not so sure the winner is going to the finals anymore, Bolts has "it" and they're about to get Stralman back. Stamkos could come back too obviously(but haven't heard anything).

Playoffs are pretty open at this point.

I think the Caps still win this series. Feel a little crazy to think that, but I just kind of sense they are not done.

If they pass the 2nd round they will go to the finals

If they choke. They will never pass then2nd round with this core

oshie would be such a good fit for the wings

Not sure if choking is the term I would use even if they lost in this particular series.

Yeah I'd love to have Oshie...
But why stop there how about their entire roster for our entire roster

 

[Bench]

A rare trade that benefited both teams at the exact same time. Brouwer is doing very well in St. Louis and Oshie has given a lot of spark for the Caps. Great hockey trade for both franchises.

We already have Oshie. His name is nyquist

They came out as favorites the entire year. They have never passed the 2nd round. Even if they lose to Pitt and they win the cup. They still threw it all away

If the Caps lose, it's a choke job.
Inexcusable performance by the Presidents Trophy winners.

In their defense they have had unbelievably bad bounces. Still they should be playing much better than they are.

umm thats not totally fair

crosby
malkin

when those two decide to play not a roster in the league could beat them(let alone kessel, letang, et al)

Crosby isn't the best in the league.

Benn and seguin are just as good if not better as a duo

Do you think Dallas is choking?

Pittsburgh has lost what five games including the three in the playoffs over 2+ months.

I actually think Washington has been the better team in the series. They have had a couple tough balances. We still have to see how they go out, but I don't think choking is what is going on here this year. It just fits the past, like the Sharks haven't choked every year they have gone out either.

Dallas isn't choking. They have a terrible d. And never had a lead usually


San Jose didn't choke? They outplayed la up until 3-1 and lost the series. Did they just stop playing because la was better or something
