Around the League Thread - Playoff Edition

I hate Marchand so much

 

[tantalum]

Had to check thenCanes jerseys to make sure there were no maple leafs on them. Complete annihilation by the Bruins in the third. Canes not even a shot with 3 minutes left.

 

[PG Canuck]

Yikes

 

[CanuckleBerry]

Damn Bruins.

 

[Blue and Green]

Colorado is loaded for a real run over the next few years. Boatload of talented players in their prime or younger years, and in a good cap situation.

Makes me sad knowing we could be in a similar position.

team is probably best off tanking the next few years and picking up young talent while we wait for the bad contracts to come off the books.

Retool the retool to catch Colorado. It can happen, maybe.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Nathan Mackinnon is the complete package. Watching him rag doll that Coyotes’ player was a sight to see.

And they haven't been afraid to move on from bigtime players who weren't a fit. Duchene/ROR/Barrie deals ultimately benefited the team

Im still salty that Kerfoot chose them over us he would have been a massive addition to our 3rd line

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

Not sure why Canucks fans have such a hard-on for Kerfoot, they’ve had basically the same player in Sam Gagner the last few years ...

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

RIP Dale Hawerchuk. Gone to soon. f*** cancer.

sad day for hockey

 

[BB06]

Pens won't be spending to the cap

RIP Dale Hawerchuk. Gone to soon. f*** cancer.

My fondest memories growing up in Winnipeg, he was truly the first superstar the Jets had.

Rest well Dale.

sad day for hockey

Overshadowed by legit generational players like 99 and 66; he nevertheless was a legit HHOFer. Will never get credit for how good he was; I will always have the following hockey clip in my mind when I think of him:

 

[BB06]

Flames are like the anti Canucks. Get so much depth scoring.

 

[Grumbler]

Complete domination by the stars. It’s funny people think playing the stars would be better when they’ve basically dominated their series against the flames more than how st luois dominated us and the flames are a deeper And more defensively solid team than us. If we had been playing the stars we’d be down atleast 3-1 in the series and taking blowout losses in some of those.

 

[deadinthewater]

People are just too wishy washy, IMO. One week so and so is awful, the next week that same team is apparently going to the Finals.. I only caught the third period of the CGY/Dallas game, but no way was Dallas dominating.

Also, WSH is about to get swept.

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

Islanders are exhibit A why we need to bring in a real coach. Trotz could turn this years Red Wings into a playoff team.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Calgary isn’t very good

 

[VanillaCoke]

The flames are ass. We would not be losing to khudobin and the stars 3-1 with blowout losses. Thats so f***ing ridiculous.

Completely disagree..even though the Stars owned us in the regular season, I think that we would have matched up to them quite well in the playoffs...I don't see Dallas blowing us out at all.

 

[deadinthewater]

Ovi keeps the Caps alive.

 

[EpochLink]

Lehner - ehner + uongo = Blackhawks opportunity.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Blues or Canucks likely playing Vegas.

Reminds me of 2015 when either the Flames and Canucks were duking it out to get destroyed by Anaheim in round 2.
