Around the League XXI: Playoffs & New Coaches Everywhere

[AmericanDream]

Love Tyler Johnson...kid plays with all heart and was such an unknown stud for team USA at the 2010 WJC team that won Gold...all of his goals are earned the dude crashes nets as if he was Bickells size

 

[AmericanDream]

Stepan!!! 3-2 now Bolts...come on Rangers vs Hawks for the cup

 

[No Fun Shogun]

The end of the second period was just bonkers. Great game in New York tonight.

 

[clydesdale line]

What's even more insane was that he was undrafted.

And he was very close in signing with us.

Small, skilled, and gritty...like Gaudreau and Johnson I hope Bowman doesn't pass up on the next version Conor Garland...kid will be the next WTF player who either went undrafted or drafted wayyyy later than he should of.

 

[ndgt10]

Lol at the "King," 6 goals allowed at home in the conference finals. Pathetic.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Still only one game, though.

Best of five now in the East.

How many small forwards can one team have though. Panarin, Teravainen, Kane, Versteeg. It would be interesting to see what a whole line of small guys do out there. Can they retrieve their own pucks?

 

[BrianE]

I honestly feel bad for Ovechkin.

why? no reason to.....what a player sows is what he reaps.

 

[G0AT]

Tyler Johnson is a damn stud.

 

[Bubba88]

Green can only stay with the Caps if he accepts their Price and it will be less than now. He'll hit the market

Best line in hockey has continued its dominance

Tyler Johnson = 11 goals + 5 assists for 16 pts (4 GWG)
Nikita Kucherov = 6 goals + 8 assists for 14 pts (2 GWG)
Ondrej Palat = 4 goals + 6 assists for 10 pts

May be best group line since Legion of Doom IMO

Another guy shining these playoffs is Alex Kilorn

5 goals + 7 assists for 12 pts

Tyler Johnson is a damn stud.

When he didn't have his stick and kicked the puck back towards net.....kid is a great performer these playoffs. Doesn't get rattled or down.

Hopefully that line is cold when we face them in the SCF.

Hey, seems to be working out just fine for Tampa...skill above size nowadays

 

[HawksBeerFan]

Do people still really care about size in 2015?

It's all a myth.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Babcock to the Sabres, maybe?

 

[Bubba88]

Babcock seems to come down to Sabres or Wings. Leafs seem to be out of the race

 

[G0AT]

I hope the Sabres land Babcock. One of my best friends is from Buffalo so I've always followed them. I like that team and wish them success. Plus **** Detroit!

 

[Sevanston]

This is about to get interesting.

 

[Blue Liner]

Toronto continues to clean house. Removed their entire AHL coaching staff.

STL I bet. That is what I am thinking.

 

[UsernameWasTaken]

I'll be happy when this is done. Tired of hearing about Babcock. No doubt he's a good coach, but this whole circus has been ridiculous.
