Usually I enjoy watching the playoffs when the devils aren’t in because it’s stress free, but I just can’t get into it this year! I don’t even particularly like the NBA and I’ve been watching way more of that.
RIP Philadelphia Collins, I'm sure he's enjoying a great burger in the sky.

Will never get tired of watching the Leafs or I’m sorry, the Passion, consistently fall on their faces year after year.
You should really see a therapist about that to explore whey you hate yourself
I should've been more detailed. I hate the f***ing Lamiorello's and have enjoyed watching them lose in every manner possible, especially Game 1.
I was worried you were actually enjoying watching the games for the quality of thr hockey.
That’s because the series and the hockey so far have in fact been incredibly dull.
Unlike other years there really has not been a decent or entertaining first round series yet, at least not in the East and available at a decent watching TV hour.
Washington may get swept today. If not, every series will be 3 -1 and three of them will have started out 3 - 0. There have been next to no overtime games and the play of the games, subjectively, has been almost totally lacking in drama.
Game 2 in Raleigh where the Canes dominated and the Isles held them off until giving up 3 goals in the final 2 minutes was about the most absorbing one in the East, but only because they were getting the shit kicked out of them and the question was whether they could possibly stumble to the bell on their feet.
This hardly makes for absorbing TV watching. And within these parameters the hockey has been pretty dull, except for maybe some 5 or 6 minute spurts of the first couple of Tampa against Florida games.
Edit to say that the Nashville - Vancouver series has potential and seems like it will continue close. But half of it has happened at 1:00 a.m. eastern time and there’s also a limit to how exciting a game can be where one team gets all of 12 shots on goal.

nah, usually the first rounds are the most exciting but with so many shitty teams in the east and the leafs being the leafs there’s no drama and very little intensity. it’s a down year for sure
The East, especially the metro, being pretty non competitive hasn't helped perspective here in NJ.
Personally, I've never really gotten into a non Devils playoff series.

Sheldon Keefe is another shit coach.
Reaves and the 4th line out there with just 3-4 minutes left in the game when down by two.
I’ve never had much of an opinion on him before, but I’m pretty sure he isn’t good.
And he’s definitely getting ganked after this. Especially with the new GM that didn’t even hire him.

I find it funny that Tavares is part of what the Leafs call their ''Core Four''.
He's got only one more year left on his deal now and he's gotta be about 33? 34 next year?
I wouldn't be surprised if he's a cap dump this offseason.
Anyone think it's possible they'll go after Stamkos if Tampa don't re-sign him, then dump the last year of Tavares? And Stamkos replaces Tavares just as a bit of a shake up? Especially if they can get Stamkos for every cheaper than what Tavares's cap hit is next year.

Avalanche/Jets probably
But Lightning vs Panthers has been really good.
Capitals vs Rangers is by far the most boring and unwatchable because of how terrible the Capitals are. That series is significantly more boring than Islanders vs Hurricanes.

It’s a good thing NJ dodged the bullet on that sieve Hellyebuck. His extension starts next year and he’s 32? No thanks.

Live look at Winnipeg
They’ve been doing it the entire series. All they need to do is get a few saves and they have dominated the whole series.
And literally not much more than a few saves, because they don’t really need more than a few against Winnipeg right now. They’ve barely generated anything.
The games in Florida-Tampa have been good, it just the first three games fell Florida’s way (Florida is better but Tampa could have won any of those three).
But the first round kind of needs Dallas to come back to save it.
And wow, Makar!
