The only reason I’d be okay with Dallas winning is if Khudobin wins the Conn Smythe, that will be an ultimate Cinderella story
It they win it and he doesn't, that would be shameful. He's the real rainthey've made it this far.
In the last round and last game I'd say so. He wasn't that good before that. At one point in the Colorado series there was a storyline running about both teams struggling without their #1 goalies. At that point Heiskanen was doing the carrying.
I wonder, had we not played Tampa in round one, could we realistically have made it to the conference finals this year?
Im sure we could have beaten the Caps and Bruins. The Flyers would have been harder.
Regardless of what people say about Toronto, they are a great team and we beat them

I think we would have beaten the Capitals, because from reports it didn't seem like they were that interested in playing.
Bruins? Nah. They were basically the same team as who beat us last year, except we didn't have our big guns.
Pittsburgh? Nope. Big brother.
Philly? Probably not. They were really hot in the early rounds.
NYI? A toss up, but probably not.
CAR? We don't play well against them, but they're not daunting offensively. Probably not though, but not impossible.
Losing to Montreal? Not impressedI don't know about Bruins but I like our chances against all of the other clubs. F*ck "big brother". That shit lives in your head. The Penguins aren't close to being the team they used to be.

Congrats to my adopted second team. Watching them I'm still amazed we swept them last year. They are solid top to bottom. As to the fan biys who think had the Jackets beat TB they would have been in the final whatcha smokin'?
Im not playing, it lives in THEIR head. We’ve lost like what, 15 of the last 18 against them? Some teams just have a kryptonite. My chargers never beat the chiefs and the bengals don’t beat the Steelers. Just how it is.
I think that record might have more to do with the Penguins being really good, which they haven't been in either of the last two playoffs.
Well, I keep/kept hearing how we’ve been really good too. And we keep making the playoffs. Yet the narrative remains true that we rarely ever beat big brother.
Sid had a hard drop off this year. Not so much in points, he wasn't good defensively. If you catch Geno in one of his cold streaks the Pens are just a middling team. I watched the Pens-Habs series and it wasn't like the Habs stole one, the Pens were just vacant.
And yet, we still don’t beat them.
50% win rate in the regular season this year vs PIT, one game went to OT (1-0 loss). I'm with major on this one. Not the same ol' Pens.
