Safe to say just about every single qualifying and playoff round so far has gone the opposite of how we would have wanted. Unreal.

Beagle is a terrible player.

How the hell did he get signed for that many years?
Benning not only gave Beagle a 4 yr/3m deal in 2018, he gave him a modified NTC even though he’s worse than anyone not named John Hayden on the Devils. Beagle really cashed in on very briefly being the Capitals 3rd line center with Tom Wilson three seasons ago. Typical savvy move by Benning.

Bos over TB in 7
NYI Over Phi in 7
Col over Dal in 6
VGK over Van in 5

Given how everything has played out, I’m fully expecting Vancouver to beat Vegas so our pick goes down to 28 and then proceed to get swept by Colorado in the conference finals.

The Vatanen games played did, but it also bumped the Rangers Skjei 1st round pick way up. Would have preferred Carolina going to the conference final and that pick sliding to 28. We still would have gotten the 3rd for Vatanen.
I don't weigh what happens for the Rangers in regards to our fortunes. Regardless, I'm pretty sure that pick is still like 23 or 24.

I can see caring about the lottery because that’s legit annoying but this seems a bit excessive. Be realistic, every game Vatanen played was also a chance for him to get injured and not play 70% of their games.

Bos over TB in 7
NYI Over Phi in 7
Col over Dal in 6
VGK over Van in 5
TB over BOS in 6 - Got to favor TB with no Rask
NYI over PHI in 6 - Trotz is a master
COL over DAL in 5 - Mackinnon too good. Grabauer playing really well.
VGK over VAN in 6 - Vegas too good and DeBoer is the right coach for them.

Welp, it's up to another former Devils coach when it comes to our 2020 draft picks. Fortunately, this time it's actually a GOOD ex-Devils HC. DeBoer and Vegas should put a beatdown on Vancouver. It goes 6 at most.

Goals against review for Friday’s games

Flyers vs Canadiens: 2 goals against Hart, no chance on either. 3 goals against Price, no chance on any.

Blues vs Canucks: 4 goals against Binnington, 3 stoppable. 1 goal against Allen in relief, no chance. 2 goals against Markstrom, no chance on either.

So that’s 12 goals scored on goalies, that’s 25% of the goals scored were stoppable. Combined save percentages were .891%.

Yeah. We rag on him with the "Tough Building" meme but at least he's proven to be an actual Head Coach and not a gong show like that moron up there in Nashville.

I also think Vegas in 6.

deboer went to the finals with two different teams in short amount of time. he wore out his job here like all coaches do but he was still a good coach and we shouldn’t forget that.

hynes has no success and was hot garbage the entire time unless you count a short playoff appearance that required a historic league mvp performance just to eke in. we were a lottery team 3 of his 5 seasons.

Honestly, Islanders have a legit shot this year. Montreal <<<<<<< Islanders. I am not entirely sold on the Flyers’ defense/ goaltending. They took advantage of veteran lineups to get the top seed. Boston/Islanders are the winners. I want to say Colorado but my gut says Dallas. If Vancouver moves on, Vegas wins. If it’s the Blues, Blues will beat Vegas.

The Flyers were also playing much better than the Caps and have no significant injuries.
