Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Cleetus]

So Saturday is a good night for ESPN…

I suppose but monday night football brings usually brings 20 million viewers, thats nuts

Rangers/Hurricanes is so wild! Very fast up and down action!

[thinkblue]

Canes very undisciplined...might cost them

 

[3blizzard4]

A PP with a 1.38 left? What world is this!

Holy shit the playoffs are fast paced. We got 1 Nylander with his skating, looks like multiple Nylanders flying out there for both teams. I can understand watching this game why Marner and Matthews haven't found a lot of success in this format over the last few years.

And we haven't been getting goalied either. This is just the standard now.

Imagine JT in a game like this

Carolina had more chances shorthanded on that Rangers PP than the Leafs did in all 12 powerplays against the B's.

What a player Sebastian Aho is...and what a big miss by the Leafs drafting Dermott instead of him...Aho was really the glue of the 3 Finns in that draft.

Playoff stats (not including 3 more assists tonight):

Unfortunately one of our highest paid players did not feel the need to play gritty. Case in point: Swayman giveaway should have been a wraparound but the fear of being Sheifled and self-preservation trumped the team.

Guentzel with the POS cheap shot.

I don't like Marners grit, but that wraparound is a shitty way to show it.

Trouba might as well just stay in the Box lol

Dallas up 3-0 in the 1st

 

[Superstar]

Dallas up 3-0 in the 1st

You mean teams actually score more than 2 goals in the playoffs?

Only means Avs will win 7-3.

But coach said playoffs should be gritty 1-2 goal affairs. If the burke days of tenacity and grit and pugnacity were the worst since he was replaced it's fair to say started from the bottom and now we here back. Not everyone will get the song reference. Idk what ppl listen to anymore.

Dallas riding high off the game 7, similar to Boston

 

[MSZ]

Looks like they will be heading to double OT. I used to love these endless OT games, not anymore with my old ass body.

Ever since Keefe's comment about the handshake line, I have a deep interest in Aretha Franklin's song "Respect"...I could even spell the word now...R-E-S-P-E-C-T...

Freddy with a couple of huge saves late in OT

 

[Cleetus]

bet there is some pizza waiting for both teams , double O.T

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Canes-Rangers game is great.

Imagine JT in a game like this

He has an autographed Jason Allison puck on his fireplace mantle

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Avs score 13 seconds into their first PP

Must be f***ing nice

 

[PromisedLand]

LOL Andersen nice tending there LMAO

 

[ULF_55]

Goaltender steals it for Rangers.

 

[TMLegend]

Rangers are a disgrace. They were flopping on the ice the whole game.
