In general I hate the Habs more but a Montreal win would clear us from playing tbay for sure if both bruins @ bolts win so I say go Habs

TB is the only team in the East that worries me so I wouldn't mind if the Habs won. Normally I would be pulling hard for the Flyers. Would be a shame if Boston and TB meet in round 2, the two best teams in the East if not the NHL.

I write this knowing that as soon as I post it, someone will score with the man advantage, but both the Flyers and Habs have terrible PP units. Slow, hesitant, passing is poor, positioning lacks cohesion, don't work hard enough in front of the net, just weak all round. No big deal giving up a penalty to either team, in fact you'd almost consider it an advantage as there are more chances at shorties than PP goals.

The Flyers are extremely fortunate to be leading game 3 and you could make an argument that the Habs have been the better team in all 3 games, thoroughly unimpressed with Philly, we would roll them.

Nah, your only likely putting it off for a latter day, your gonna have to face the Bolts at some point if you wanna make it to the SCF I would think. I say the sooner the better, if the Bruins are gonna lose to Tampa the sooner it happens the better, I don't need to go through another round only to lose in the next. Let's get it out of the way.

I don't see the Caps winning 4 in a row against the Islanders so the Bolts would be the only real roadblock I can see for the Bruins on the road to the SCF. Vegas and Colorado are gonna be tough outs getting to the finals as healthy as can be will be key for all teams.

Habs lose! Haha

Any day the Habs lose is a good day.

So a co-worker comes up to me yesterday after a kind gesture and says "You're really a man of the people"

I say "Yes I am, I love everybody"

Being a Habs fan he raises a brow because he knows that's not true

I acknowledge " Ok , everyone except the Habs"

And we laughed

Binnington dropped and replaced by Allen for Game 3 against the Canucks. Probably the right call. Binnington's been horrible. Hard to say if it's just a phase or him reverting to his 'normal' level. He was ok in the regular season, but not great - probably neither good enough to silence the doubters nor bad enough to completely validate those who thought his 2019 was a flash in the pan.
