GDT: Around the League: Playoff Edition Part IV

[Coffey]

My personal favourite from over at HF Flames: the user "JGaudreau" leaving behind a novel about how it was really the refs fault all along that the Flames lost the series.

I seriously thought it was one of you guys trolling, but unless that person created like a years long persona, it was an actual Flames fan. Hilarious.

Poe’s Law definitely applies to salty Flames fans.

After a 2 month stretch to start the season where Hanifin looked like a good D, he since regressed back to usual extremely average self and got absolutely pumped in the playoffs

Meanwhile, Hamilton has been the complete opposite, average to start the year, and #1D level play since December

Whole flames team was red hot those first 2 months. I think all their top guys were rocking 20%+ shooting %'s 1-2 months into the year, which obviously requires a crazy amount of luck. Got a lot of confidence from those good fortunes and rode it through the year. Happens now and then to team, but I'm doubting that all happens again for them next season.

Another year where we are told the flames defence is top end, but it always crumbles.

EVERY YEAR.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

The next thing they'll be bitching about is that they didn't get two days off like Dallas/Nashville, Washington/Carolina and SJ/LV all got.

New leaderboard.

EVERY YEAR.

As usual, it just ends up being all up to Gio to carry the load. Fingers crossed next year is finally the one where age catches up. They are so screwed when that finally happens.

Nashville is MIA in such an important game.

Nashville is MIA in such an important game.

I was just thinking this year has the potential of seeing all four wildcards moving on to the 2nd round.

Columbus and Colorado both punched their ticket.

Dallas and Carolina have solid opportunities to take 3-2 leads today.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

3-1 Dallas.

Anyone who took Radulov in a pool will be smiling, couple of goals so far.

3-2, Johansen scores.

 

[Cloned]

2 goals on 11 shots. They’re lucky.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

I wonder if the Stars owner still thinks Benn and Seguin are horseshit.

I wonder if the Stars owner still thinks Benn and Seguin are horse****.

Clever motivation ploy?
It certainly does look like the owner will be benefiting from a lot more playoff revenue now.

Just ask her to pass the salt at Easter dinner and when she does, say "You're now tied with Johnny in assists".

I might just use that.

I might just use that.

Then look at your wife after like the boy in the middle with the glasses looking smug AF.

Someone needs to post the gif of the chubby guy in pants trying to beach surf (?) who does the hairy naked ass lip stand and superimpose the Flames logo or No Show’s head on the body.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Smith with some scathing words...said something along the lines of "You can't expect to move on when you play just average".

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Every time they talk about Warren Foegele. This is all I can think of...

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Dallas making the Preds look like the Oilers.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Least I've been right on the Stars being a darkhorse (I was wrong on Colorado, so wrong)

Stars are a hard team to deal with, improved, and finally with some added scoring depth. Plus the brilliant contributions they get offensively from D.

The series should be over. Game 3 was all Stars and Rinne just stole that one for the Preds.

Preds getting all the luck. Rocky Grimaldi (who he) is their leading scorer in this series having scored as many goals as he ever has just in this series.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Nashville gets a very fortunate bounce

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Dallas was the team I wanted to face the Flames instead of the Avs.

They're no ordinary wild card team. Might be the best in the Central.

 

[Section337]

I might be a bitter, old curmudgeon because I struggle to like any team or want them to win. Just want certain teams to lose more.
