Series Talk: Stanley Cup Playoffs 2024

[pont]

My first NHL game was in Boston. I was stationed up in Porstmouth, NH at the time. Was really impressed by #77 and that goalie from Montreal wasn't bad. Patrick something...

I HATED, I mean HATED Patrick Roy when I first moved here to Colorado. Less than one season later he was one of my favorite players. Portsmouth? Cool. My sister still lives in the area in Dover, NH.

Meh, no one covered in glory on either of these teams

Don’t think Troube, Rempe and the Olympic Diving team are any better. It’s bleak if the Avs don’t make the SCF

Bahahahahhahahahaa way to take a dumb penalty early Canucks

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

LOL. Oilers gifted a PP just :40 in

 

[MacKaRant]

Canucks off to a brilliant start staying out of the box

Keys to the game for Nucks, don’t take penalties. 40 seconds in they take a too much men penalty

 

[GeoRox89]

That was fast

 

[MacKaRant]

Canucks off to a brilliant start staying out of the box

Also off to a brilliant start not allowing easy cross-crease passes

 

[the_fan]

Playoff rocket race Highman vs Nuke

 

[wayninja]

Welp, that's game

 

[The Abusement Park]

At least the Canucks aren't playing to the Oilers strengths or anything.

Yeah, my boat was the first sub to undergo a refueling operation to double it's life. The shipyard was awesome. Mostly because it was like shore duty for a year and a half, but I did fall in love with the area. Been trying to get my wife back that way as she's never seen New England in the fall.

I was just a fan of hockey in general for the first several years. I loved all the good players and all the good teams. When Quebec relocated, that was when I decided it was time to commit to a single team to call my own and they became it. Few months later when they got Roy went nuts! Missed the playoffs though because we were underway. We only got news that Sakic won the Smythe so that's how I learned the Avs won in '96.

Wouldn’t mind Zadorov knocking Kane’s head off

Wouldn’t mind Zadorov knocking Kane’s head off

Thinking too small, Zads smash Kane’s head into Perry’s

 

[BaconNater]

Who had the Canucks breakaway? What a horrible attempt

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I haven't really followed Z since he was traded. I heard that he was getting more consistent under Sutter, but he's looked really good tonight.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

How was that not boarding on Heyman?

 

[wayninja]

Quinn "tissuepaper" Hughes isn't exactly built for playoff hockey

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

This series isn't gonna go past 4

 

[El Travo]

That was baaaaaaad from Cole.

I know right? Where is Boeing Security when you need to take care of whistleblowers?

 

[Mighty Makar]

Nucks look nervous as f***.

 

[Bill Peckerskull]

That was baaaaaaad from Cole.

With respect, you do realize there is a problem with the refs judgement right? The refs are actually having an outsized influence on the outcome of games because they are essentially handing out completely random power plays. They will allow a hook by one team and then call a hook that was actually less on the other team. It's complete bullshit. If you want to defend anything to do with officiating, that's up to you. It's a choice. Not one that I would make, but it's a choice.

I'm not arguing for today's ref's The current crop of officials are garbage. And the replays and challenges that plague them make them more inconsistent and hesitant than ever.

NHL officiating was much, much better IMO in the past. Players and coaches knew what to expect.

 

[Vk1ing]

Quinn "tissuepaper" Hughes isn't exactly built for playoff hockey

Hes build for playoff better than Makar ok

 

[NOTENOUGHRYJOTHINGS]

Vancouver facing a team that has nhl level forwards. Which means the series is over. Zadorov Cole Myers on your blue line. No more needs to be said.

McDavid with 12 points in 4 games.
