NHL: Around the League 52

[Hawkaholic]

It's crazy, he's such a solid player, just can't bring his game up to that next level when it matters.

A legend. One of the greatest voices of hockey.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Marner is like bizarro Kane.

My prediction for the Panthers/Lightning ending:

Game will be tied late.

A stick will come up inches from Kucherov's face and he flops his head hard in agony. Ref raises his arm only he calls......embellishement! Florida scores on their power play to take the game.



Just kidding, that would never happen.

 

[Joemoe]

Lightning looking like a team who had a lot of playoff success and the effects of that are starting to show.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Panthers win 5-3 and take 3-0 series lead

TB by looks is in that Islanders post dynasty era (85-88) of being playoff team but not good enough to contend before bottom fell out as core aged/depth depleted

I wont be shocked if TB falls apart in 2-3 years

Trading an entire draft for Jeannot has been debacle and one of the worst trades in recent NHL history

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Hurricanes won 3-2

Now up 3-0 on Isles

Two years after the Hawks were last in the finals, they got swept in round 1. Two years after the Bolts were last in the finals (where they lost to Colorado), they are on the verge of getting swept; obviously depends if they lose game 4.

The season after that for the Hawks, we missed the playoffs and drafted top 10 (Boqvist). Does Tampa follow that pattern and draft top 10 in 2025?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Rangers won 3-1 and now lead 3-0 in series

Preds lose 2-1 despite outshooting Nucks 31-12, Nucks up 2-1 in series

DeSmith has been awful this year but he really answered the bell tonight

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Georgiev is gonna sink the Avs.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Georgiev is gonna sink the Avs.

Avs seeming like they have more than enough firepower to overcome Georgiev.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Avs seeming like they have more than enough firepower to overcome Georgiev.

Avs can certainly score but man did the Jets shit the bed tonight.

 

[x Tame Impala]

Hellebyuck got torched again huh? Missed the game but another 5 goals against game from him. No good.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

The first round is not living up to the hype at all. Blowouts all over the place, multiple teams about to be swept, lack of overtime. Only good thing was a couple of line brawls tonight but even then.

I feel like the only series that’s been half decent is Boston/Toronto.

 

[Pez68]

The Avs just outtalent everyone.

 

[x Tame Impala]

The Avs just outtalent everyone.

Even without Landeskog. Lehkonen and Nichuskin have been killing it for them, Mittlestadt was a great TDL pickup as well. Ballsy move trading Byram away but they needed forward depth and they certainly got it.

I hope they kick the shit out of Vegas and wouldn't mind them winning another Cup

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Overtime in Long Island.

 

[Backyard Hockey]

Damn I wish Hagel was still on the Hawks

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Domi takes a dumb penalty and Marchand makes it 2-0.

 

[BobbyJet]

Domi takes a dumb penalty and Marchand makes it 2-0.

Leafs looking very much like a defeated team.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Leafs looking very much like a defeated team.

Samsonov biting way too hard on both goals doesn't help.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Briefly gave Leafs/B's a look on HBO Max as my cable has gotten freezy for some reason

No thanks on HBO Max version, Seems darker and audio is not as good

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Pasta makes it 3-0 with 41.6 left in 2nd

Leafs look broken

They also have no answer to that B's big guns

Leafs boo'd off ice
