Series Talk: Stanley Cup Playoffs 2024

[Freaky Styley]

Florida and Carolina are the only teams I can see winning in the East, and it's all dependent on who they play. If we get there I'd take us, and I'd take Vegas over them. Edmonton is the one team I think they'd beat. Basically I think it's us/Vegas/Canes/Panthers hoisting the cup.

Let's give him 7 years @ 3 million AAV. Surely someone can convince him if this no?

Who? Ullmark?

 

[The Abusement Park]

Was east better than west last year? I don’t know if it was

I mean as a whole yes. Obviously west won the cup, but from top to bottom the east was way better than the west last year.

Coop is such a smooth, charismatic speaker...

Hes going to be great for TV whenever he decides to stop coaching.

Karma for all the shit talking from those fans. Hilarious actually.

Kirk McLean talking about this injury suggesting part of the problem is that goalies are too tall now is one of the strangest things in a while

Canucks vs. Predators: Kirk McLean can feel Thatcher Demko's playoff injury pain

McLean had two knee surgeries in one year. He can relate to Demko's career struggles with several injuries.

I have the Panthers winning regardless of what happens, but I never expected it to be around a sweep. Pretty brutal since I don't think Lightning has played all that poorly. Some defensive mistakes sure and missing Sergachev hurts a lot, but not the Islanders level bad.

I'm with Hench, out of all teams I've seen play the Avs this year, Florida was by far away the best team easily. If there is one team to break the SCF loser curse, it would be them this year.

Roy tends to get his gut instincts right almost all the time, but he lost it with the goaltending today. Varlamov was far from perfect, but he was not even close to the reason why they were down 0-2 in the series.

Well, he was a lawyer...

Pretty brutal, no? Who would want to play in this market?

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Start the riots

Pretty brutal, no? Who would want to play in this market?

11 million solves a lot of issues apparently.

 

[Chiarelli]

Sorokin

2 goals on 6 shots

If Roy stupidly forces him out this summer we should be all over that

Edit: wrote this before knowing his contract. I do think he’s better than this years stats tho

 

[Chiarelli]

Kucherov’s body language is how it was at the allstars. He knows they don’t have a chance at beating Florida so he’s not even trying out there. Just lazy, slow, giving pucks away

Bro this is him on good behaviour

I doubt Sorokin would want out. He's Russian, the only other place he would probably want to go is Florida. Well they already got two Russian goalies. The other New York team has a Russian goalie, too.

He'll stay on the Island.

New Jersey?

 

[dahrougem2]

New Jersey?

Don't no Russian wanna go there

Are they afraid they will end up in Pine Barrens?

Maybe Varlamov can tell him nice things about Denver.

 

[Balthazar]

It would be quite funny to try to make cap room for a 8M+ goalie.

Acquire, LTIR, use min salary backups until the playoffs.

[missionAvs]

Congrats to the Oilers.

Who? Ullmark?

yes, would need to get him to terminate his current contract but surely he would right? I mean, it is the Colorado River we're talking here.

 

[JLo217]

Couple of thoughts from last night. Kucherov doesn't care and man the Lightning just look cooked. Panthers are REALLY good.

I also don't really know if Roy is going to make it as an NHL coach. The team defense looks a ton like what the Avs did when he was coach. I'm curious if he can get the management to retool a bit. The Islanders have had the same boring team identity since the 90's. I'd love to see if Roy can make that roster a bit more fun with management.

Congrats to the Oilers.

I don't even think they'll get past the Predators.

Amazing that Ovechkin has been in the league 40 years and still seems to have no idea how to skate backwards or play a 2 on 1.

 

[Metallo]

Rempe is a dangerous player.
