Good stuff

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Well, that almost certainly means a Tuesday start for our series.

 

[Balthazar]

Good news: 7 games

Not-so-good news: we might face Vegas

 

[avalanche_country]

Happy to be wrong

GAME 7 BLOODSPORT SEPTUPLE OT BAYBEE

 

[HockeyFan100]

Dallas looked f***ing terrible in the 3rd

 

[sethro109]

So it's probably safe to say we'll play on Tuesday.

 

[Markster]

A couple more days for Drouin.

 

[AvsMakar08]

This will go to OT, because Dallas

Nahh, Dallas sucks.

 

[sethro109]

Good news: 7 games

Not-so-good news: we might face Vegas

I really don't think it matters which of these teams we play. They're very similar and are both very good. Vegas might be nice because of home ice advantage. Since that seems to really matter to our guys this season.

 

[BobRossColton]

So when is too much time off become a thing?

In the playoffs? No such thing. You get to rest all the bruises.

Vegas' style and physicality make it harder for us. Also they are like 12M over the cap.

Dallas isn't easy but we match up against them better IMO.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Give me Vegas over Dallas. I want home ice for one, but also I dont think Vegas is nearly as scary as people believe. For one they didn't decimate Dallas like some here thought. They have weaknesses that can absolutely be exploited.

If Drouin wasn’t injured, I’d want the 2nd round to start ASAP. Don’t really want too much time off

I agree that Dallas isn't nearly as physical, but Dallas always seems to injure our guys. I also think we can expose Pie in a series against Vegas. He looks really rough out there.

The only team that concerns me, is Florida.

 

[Muffin]

I don’t think one team is better than the other. Just take the home ice and hope for Vegas.

 

[RECKLESS]

What the doctor ordered.
Now let the game7 go to 5ot.

 

[NOTENOUGHRYJOTHINGS]

Wow. Canucks fans actually think their team is good. After barely squeezing out wins vs a putrid Nashville team. And playing their third goalie. Who admittedly has done well.

This is a bye for Edmonton.

 

[Balthazar]

It'd be a failure for the Oilers to reach the 3rd round in more than 10 games

Yeah it really is. Edmonton has had such an easy path this year. All other contenders in the West are coming through the Central.

There are no contenders in the pacific lol Edmonton loses to Avs/Vegas/Dallas

 

[katfude]

Game 7 it is.

It was Stone.

Remember that when the dickhead vegas fans try to tell you he's not 100% and definitely still playing with a LaCeRaTeD sPlEeN

 

[AvsWraith]

I'd like to see some more hitting in game 7. These two aren't busting each other up enough.
