GDT: The 2017 Playoffs Bandwagon Thread - 3rd Round

[LightningStrikes]

No Hornqvist, Rust, Schultz for Pens though.

 

[VoluntaryDom]

The Pittsburgh Band-aids.

Not to be confused with the Tampa Bay Crutches

 

[Stormbreaker]

holy **** Sens

 

[LightningStrikes]

Sens are steamrolling the Pens so far!

 

[Stormbreaker]

Here comes Matt Murray

 

[LightningStrikes]

Go Sens!

"No Adjustments"

 

[Iceman]

Would love a Nashville Ottawa SCF.

Since we didn't make the playoffs I want a first time winner.

As long as it's not Pittsburgh, I am good with it.

"No Adjustments"

Yeah, déjà-vu from our 2011 playoff run with Bocher:



Lightning up 2-0. Listen to Pierre at 1:02 "this is where we'll see the 1-3-1..." meanwhile the Lightning continue their relentless forecheck and make it 3-0. Totally caught Boston and Pierre off guard with their obviously adjusted game plan. Everyone was expecting us to turtle after the early lead. Instead it was all run and gun hockey. Boucher's underrated and wrongfully labelled as a one trick pony.

 

[Steazy Doo]

Boucher actually plays to his team's strengths and they won. Who would have thought.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Laviolette sticking to corporate design, chewing yellow bubble gum.

I miss Downie.

 

[LightningStrikes]

I miss Downie.

Is he even playing anymore? 2015-16 was his last professional season (Arizona / Springfield). Last thing I remember was his big rant on Twitter in December. Still out of work, apparently though.

No one probably wants a guy with as much baggage as he has. He also hasn't been very good since he left.

Brett ****ing Clark, shot blocking machine and sniper.

Sucks to see things like this

Pretty sure they won game 1 as well, could be wrong.

And a team whos coach makes adjustments, must be nice.

That's a huge shame and a huge shot to the Preds' chances.

Staying healthy is more important than being good in the playoffs most years.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Go Preds!

 

[The Gongshow]

Nashville has been a fantastic playoff building this year. I haven't watched much of their playoff runs in the past but this year I've been watching quite a bit, the energy in this building has been great.

Hate the dirty ducks, really hoping Nashville ends it tonight.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Hat trick for Sissons. 4 goals on 16 shots for the Preds.

 

[AlphaCatalyst]

Congrats Preds

 

[The Macho King]

The Ducks are just so unlikable.

 

[Steazy Doo]

Gotta love the Sens right now, they can be a fun team to watch when Boucher doesn't trap all night. It's no coincidence that the games they've spent more time playing aggressive are the games they've been winning.
