I was a bit late, but I did cancel my cable. Shaw internet install is Saturday morning. For anyone interested, they've got good deals on now. $43/$58 for internet 300 over 2 years. I think TV was like $103 for the first year with small tv if you're interested. My bill drops from $207 with Telus to $43.

Niiiice.

back on topic, I have literally no interest in any team anymore except with possibly the winner of the St. Louis/Dallas series. Everyone else I either hate, disinterest (Colorado), or be kinda awesome if it would happen but no chance that it will (Carolina).

It's a good time to go outside.

Man this feels like a Canucks series. Go in with so much hope only to lose the next 2 games and give up a weak backbreaking goal in the elimination game...and watching it turn into a blowout on home ice...

Annnnd thats it for Columbus

Going to lose their UFAs and and have mortgaged their future. It's going to be a rough few years for them.

Not winning the cup isn't necessarily a failure. They won a round against the best #1 seed in a long time. This will help them sell season tickets for next year.

Marchand and Krug are just unbelievable players. Everything runs through them.

Don't know what CBJ does now with Panarin and Bob likely leaving.

Holland is a dinosaur too with his best days behind him. He’s made some questionable trades and hands out terrible contracts as well. “Huge upgrade” is a hyperbole
He sold out the franchise to keep the playoff streak alive for Ilitch. After the streak ended he's been better, but not great, which should be a huge improvement over Chiarelli but probably not what they need to contend, hence mediocrity.

He knows how to sell at the deadline when rebuilding though so that puts him a step above James Elmer.

Sooo.... the Canucks had 1 year run under Gillis in 2011 but lost in round 2 the 2 prior years and out in round 1 the 2 years after that.

You can’t sit around just collecting assets. Sooner or later you make a push.

The 2 Russians are likely gone. Duchene up to him what he wants to do. I think Dzingel signs with them.

I do not hate the Cuthbert/McGuire combo calling the Sharks/Avs on NBC. Not bad.
