Around the League XL: Games 7

[BobbyJet]

I love that they defeated Preds and will likely be cheering for Dallas in the next round but I don't think they can handle Blues.

 

[Rick C137]

I have to question if the Preds window has already started to close. RJ and Turris don't look good. Subban might be on the way out. Josi and company are not getting younger.

Been thinking the same. RJ really hasn’t been good at all for the Preds outside of that one playoff run where he got his money. This is his third full season with the Preds and his career high there is 15 goals. This is someone who in the two years prior in Columbus scored 33 and 28. Turris has never really looked good in Nashville. Josi is entering his last year on a sweetheart contract aswell. Got to imagine he hasn’t been thrilled about Subban making over 2x what he’s been making.

With so many teams being on the rise in the central, and Nashville not having much else coming through the pipeline besides Tolvanen... just I don’t think they have that much more time left as being one of the central elites.

It's the fans fault, it's all their fault.

The sooner the Nashville fans straighten out their act the better.

I would think it would have to annoy even their own players. In fact I think it's the fans fault they lose each year!

so who has who winning these game 7's????

Caps vs Canes??? I say Canes take it, haven't been the better team, but Stanley Cup hangover I am betting on!

Leafs vs B's??? I hope and pray the B's win, but even if I didn't hate the Leafs, I still like their (Boston) play better this round

Golden Knights vs Sharks??? I just can't see Jones making 45-50 saves again, Golden Knights will win this

Right in line with my predictions.

Canes, Bruins, Knights.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Caps Bruins Knights.

Think Ovi has him a game.

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

Caps
Bruins
Vegas

My picks have been horrendous though.

 

[BK]

Caps
Bruins
Vegas

 

[AmericanDream]

just in case Fiddy missed me shouting him out-
What Happened to Kyle Turris?

 

[ChiHawk21]

Canes Leafs Knights

 

[Putt Pirate]

I am picking the Bruins just for the Toronto salt factor.

Caps to beat the Canes

I hope the Sharks win but Vegas is tough and stacked. Still pulling for the sharks....but would bet on the knights if it came down to $.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Toronto to losing against Boston in game seven again would be so perfect.

 

[b1e9a8r5s]

Toronto to losing against Boston in game seven again would be so perfect.

 

[Hawkaholic]

What would be perfect is Toronto blowing a 3 goal lead in the 3rd, and losing in OT.

 

[Bring Back GLR]

Preds, Bolts, Flames, Jets...The Great Pretenders! Hawks Cup wins get even sweeter as the years go by!

 

[CanadianHawks]

Canes Bruins SJ

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

I had TB def NSH in finals before playoffs ,, Yikes

 

[Rick C137]

Jets' Ehlers played through leg fracture in Game 6

Well that’s something.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

What is excuse for his crappy playoffs last year?

21 NHL playoff games at this point with no goals and 7 assists

Preds, Bolts, Flames, Jets...The Great Pretenders! Hawks Cup wins get even sweeter as the years go by!

It certainly does. I figured the other Central teams would be taking advantage of the Hawks downslide the last 4 years. Seems like the Preds should’ve won by now and if the Jets were ever going to do it it would’ve been this year or last.

Instead, the Preds get to raise a “Made it to Game 7 in the First Round” banner and the Jets have no clue what to do with Laine.

Actually Laine showed up. Can't say the same about most of the other top 6 players. Buff was criticised around here but he was one of the few Jets players trying to make things happen. The team relies on him to lead the offensive charge far too often.

Oh no I meant more in regards to Laine’s regular season uncertainty we saw this year. He was actually pretty good, at least in the first 4 games, against the blues

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Let's go maximum chaos.

Canes
Bruins
Sharks

 

[Styles]

So hyped for this game.

 

[BobbyJet]

I'd like:
Caps
Bruins
Sharks
