Around the League | Round 1: FIGHT!

[Petey O]

You can’t actually believe this. If I was not a Canucks fan I would not watch this series because the games have been boring as hell.

I'm not interested in any other team but the Canucks tbh. I don't have much interest in watching them. Maybe here and there, but the moment the Canucks are eliminated I couldn't care less.

The series is entertaining to me because it's the Canucks, and I've always been a fan of low scoring grindy games with lots of shot blocks.

Jets deciding to go run and gun against the Avs is the most surprising thing this playoffs

i mean, maybe it's second to winnipeg colorado, but the games have been really tight and physical.

i fully admit it might just be me being blinded because I haven't seen playoff hockey in so long but it feels like an intense series aside from game 2

Both of the East WCs should have been golfing. The Blues would have been better than either of them. The Pacific is only 2 teams deep while the Central is 4 teams deep. I'm not writing off the Stars series for entertainment. Getting swept by Vegas would be entertaining in itself. Every first round needs a big upset, lets cross our fingers it isn't the Canucks.

Which 2 teams?

 

[Jyrki]

Absolutely comedy of errors by the Jets just now, they're pretty rattled

TB is WC1. NYI with fewer points finished 3rd in the Metro.

 

[Hammer79]

Which 2 teams?

I meant brackets, like the Central bracket is 4 deep while Vancouver and Edmonton should win their series. VGK is honorary Central right now

 

[DFAC]

Jets imploding

Right, I forgot that the NYI weren't a WC lol how did they finish 3rd

 

[canuckking1]

Jets overmatched. If Georgiev wasn't a sieve this series would be 3-0

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Can you imagine if the Canucks played the Avs instead of the Preds in the third period tonight. It would have been a massacre.

 

[Red]

Hellebuyck has been blah

 

[EpochLink]

It’s really unfortunate,

Playoff Hellebuyck reminds me of playoff Luongo

 

[arttk]

Jets complete meltdown

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Avs pretty much guaranteed to get 5+ pps a game. They play a style that promotes high event action and the refs are more than happy to go along with it and hand out PP like candy at Halloween.

You pretty much have to stay even on special teams to give yourself a chance of beating them.

He moves so slow. I don't know if he's just tired but he's moving around like an old JS Giguere.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Winnipeg won Game 1 but I knew it wasn't a good sign going forward when Hellebuyck allowed 6 goals.

Monahan sucks and Toffoli hasn't been good either. These two are just too slow for playoff hockey. Buyer beware this offseason.

 

[bbud]

Colorado gets rolling look out western conference.

 

[EpochLink]

He moves so slow. I don't know if he's just tired but he's moving around like an old JS Giguere.

He’s about to win his second Vezina, I think he’s just tired or he’s been figured out.

 

[RussianRacket]

Was about to complain the Jets don't even have the dignity to goon it up at the end. Glad they proved me wrong.

 

[bbud]

Lowrey looks like an idiot let's fight when I'm getting my ass kicked on scoreboard lol.
Jets lost composure in this one

 

[bbud]

Winnipeg losing their sh.t after game just dumbass

 

[Jack Tripper]

More fights in the past 10 minutes than the past few weeks.

 

[EpochLink]

15 goals against for Hellebuyck in 3 games.

That’s horrible

 

[RussianRacket]

That was a lot of blood

 

[bbud]

Lol refs padding coilers there win next one LA I want Edmonton going 7 win or lose
