North of the border both Leafs and Oilers lose game 1... Obviously still early but heads are going to fall if either team loses game 2.

Latvia up 2-0 on Canada early in the 3rd on NHLN.

Latvian fans are great, it's too bad that they aren't allowing any fans in the arena this year.


Also notice how they're waiting until really late on Friday to suspend Kadri? Typically, you bury news later on Friday. It feels like a relic, and it somewhat is, but the Mon-Fri sports shows are off at least.

Tavares injury was the scariest thing I've seen in a while. It's also kind of crazy/lucky that that kind of thing doesn't happen very often, the way players fall down in high speed traffic so often.

I generally stand by my belief that the West matchups we got were the ones most conducive to a potential upset, but the truth appears to be that Colorado and Las Vegas are simply way too good.

Colorado is fast but has no muscle they have like less than 15 hits a game I really think vegas will destroy them. Vegas is on hot streak and have a really nice top 6 amd top 4 d. That will be the team coming from the west

We will see. I think Colorado looks like the team to beat imo. Have looked very dangerous up and down the lines and d is good too.

Can someone contact the Nashville coach and ask him to stretch this out to 4 or 5 OT's?

Sad and unfortunate event, I wish him the best.

While zapping back and forth between the other two games and with the Avs/Blues game in mind that just finished, I once again realize how intense and awesome our series has been so far in comparison.

I only saw the stat for after one period, but the hits in that game were 8-3 Blues after one period. Literally, 11 recorded hits in one period. Duly noted that hits are at the discretion of arena scorekeeping, but that suggests low numbers regardless. The Avs are very successful without having to do much hitting in that regard, and the Blues aren't known for lacking physicality, either. Whatever it means moving forward, we'll just have to wait and see. Odds are, we're getting that Avs-Golden Knights collision course.
