The optimist in me says if we can upset Tampa, we can win the Cup. The realist says it's good to get an extra four games in the season.

If Columbus somehow gets by Tampa Bay would they play the winner of Bos-Tor?

Correction: I guess we do.

 

[Doug19]

happy we made the playoffs, but can't say I'm all that excited for this series. Seems like a mountain to climb to beat the best team seen in a long time.

Yes.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

No. We'd play a team from the Metro.

Not true. We wouldn't play a team from the Metro until the conference finals. We're going through the Atlantic.

of we could only get Hedger to ask Torts that

Lose in 5 realistically!! If we win 2 that would be huge accomplishment. Tb only lost 16 games in regulation all year!! That 80% regulation wins.

Will be fun! Hope for huge upset!!

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Reward for being one win under 100 points, a marker that used to win divisions, is a date with the best team in the salary cap era and modern hockey. How fun.

It's easy to look back now but various late game goals against that cost us OT games were just killer. In Winnipeg comes to mind. In Montreal as well. Also getting spanked twice by Edmonton. They earned everything they got coming to them.

Anyway, go Jackets. Shock the world.

 

[Maylo]

If we win 2 score 2 goals that would be huge accomplishment.

Here, fixed.

 

[Doggy]

If we play Boston in Round 2 I might get to a playoff game

Since the new playoff format, has a WC switched conferences and been the representative in the conference finals?

 

[EspenK]

I hope we don't get swept. Best I can see.

 

[Maylo]

Yay!!!

[Doggy]

when does the schedule drop?

when does the schedule drop?

Tomorrow is when it'll be announced but it will likely be leaked tonight

 

[spintheblackcircle]

PLD, Anderson and Foligno have to play that dangerous game of being physical without putting Columbus short-handed, the Lightning will romp if they get 5 or 6 PP's a game.

 

[Jaxs]

Safe is death will be death if defenseman are playing up on every play up ice. Tampa will feast on that if as many odd mans are given up as in recent games. Hope Shaw can put that into the game plan.

question for you guys, what happened exactly to Bjorkstrand all of a sudden? Dude is on fire!

line changes? was dealing with a injury before? just something that happened...? what? anyone knows?

 

[MAHJ71]

The beauty of the matchup with TB is the world expects them to easily crush us...So the pressure should be on them more than us.

Have fun, play relaxed but hard, get a few breaks, Bob stands on his head while juggling 5 oranges... who knows what happens ... that’s why the games are played

Freed from Dubinsky as his center.

 

[rfournier103]

Do the rest of the NHL a favor and beat the bag out of those a******s, okay?

Sincerely,

EVERYONE.

 

[WashedUp]

Bob needs to be better than he has ever been. He wants $10 mill? Everyone knows he sucks in the playoffs, he reverses that and he’ll get it!
