OT: Around the NHL - Conference Finals N'at

[NewAgeOutlaw]

I don't see Vegas losing to anybody right now. They seem to me to be a bulldozer like the 2016 Pens.

They could always start playing like crap, but nobody is beating them if they continue to play as well as they have.

 

[Rossi Rat]

I think Orpeck died

 

[Clare2904]

Good lad, kick ass time now the game is done

 

[BHD]

That doesn't look good.

 

[LOGiK]

That's another goal that cup winning teams get stops on.

I originally called the Penguins the biggest paper tiger in the playoffs, I'm going to take that back. The Penguins had an ass defense on paper and it caught up to them in the playoffs. The Lightning have a stacked D on paper, and it's playing like crap right now. They're also struggling to score just like the Penguins offense struggled, while their offense on paper is just as good.

If it wasn't for the tampa power play this series may have been a sweep. Penguins played far better against the caps than the lightning could only dream of.
They stunk this series up bad.

 

[Rossi Rat]

The Vegas run could be considered somewhat comparable to the Kings’ run in 2012 I think it was? A team no one expected just Dominates everyone out of nowhere behind a hot goalie.

But I just feel the Ovechkin factor and the fact this team has been due for so long...

 

[USMC607]

Wow that's a no no Paq

 

[BHD]

Looks like Paquette went for the hit after he saw Orpik turn. That should be boarding/hitting from behind.

 

[LOGiK]

Orpik can give those all day but can't take one. Aww

 

[Gurglesons]

How is that not a 5 minute boarding call?

 

[NMK11]

Either Tampa is going to pull this out in dramatic fashion and the entire Caps fan base is going to pull a shocked Ovi, or the Caps hang on and then I will be forced to root for them because Vegas is a bunch of young whippersnappers who havent done their time in the league and need to suffer before being good.

Just kidding, go Vegas.

 

[DeSero]

They are legit not calling anything. Might have a makeup call soon though.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Looks like they bumped heads to me.

 

[Gurglesons]

That is absolutely dumb. That needs to be called.

 

[cookthebooks]

if tampa can score one i think they will score enough to win

 

[DeadPuckEra]

Still maintain that nobody who was coming out of the east, including us, is going to be ready for Vegas if Vegas plays like Vegas.

Showing up for the cup final games feels like a formality for them at this point. It’s theirs.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Lol you know when Bura scores your team is done

 

[BHD]

Game over.

 

[TNT87]

Go Knights Go.

 

[ColePens]

And i'll say it again. Caps are the most opportunistic team that I can remember. Tampa 2016 and Ottawa 2017 were both dangerous, but I give the nod to Washington.

 

[LOGiK]

LOL@Tampa and at home!

 

[Clare2904]

Off to the Dodgers game I go

f*** you Washington

Go Vegas

 

[Turin]

Washington and Vegas killing teams on line changes this year.

Tampa so underwhelming for an elite team. They didn’t play a good game this series.

 

[DeadPuckEra]

f***ing Rangers choking cucks

And what better team to lose to them than the Caps?
