It's a big blow to a Cup run, but it's loving Carolina.

Halak is better than both of their goalies combined into some kind of horrid ungodly chimera mound of twisted and tortured flesh that screams in constant pain.

Speaking of Boston, I looked it up and Zdeno Chara received one (1) cross-checking penalty in the last year. He got his money's worth. He also has one minor penalty so far in the playoffs. What a disciplined warrior!

Another thing: I'm not bitter. Don't say that I'm bitter.

I don't see Strome as a long-term part of the Rangers, nor is he effective in a bottom six role. Anything over two years for him seems like a bad idea, as does any salary that prevents them from signing anyone else.

Yeah, truth be told, I'm not terribly disappointed they're out because they defied expectations in spite of injuries/no Bread/no Bob, did win a series to get "in", and, if nothing else, it's a test run of what they need going forward (which, to no surprise, is scoring).

At the very least, both Jackets series were hugely entertaining with enough highlight reel saves to fill the offseason. Mostly upset because blowing a 2 goal lead is a lovely way to lose an elim game.

Plz god no. Panarin will be fine playing with another center is swear.

Unfortunately not a great center UFA class

But let Gorton work some trade magic or put Chytil in the top six or anything but give Ryan Strome that amount of money. And I love underachieving-former-high pick guys like Strome because you can get them cheap and they have great potential and pedigree, but when you start giving them massive term (after playing with elite talent) you are piling on a ton of risk.

HOCKEY OWNS
FUCK YEAH


I think one of the things we're seeing with this format is that the teams with depth issues are crumbling a bit earlier than they would have in the previous format. The play-in series added just that little bit of extra wear and tear to them and made them rely on their depth earlier than they normally would. Teams that might have broken through with a surprise win in the first round before are out of gas halfway through the round now instead. I expect to see the Canucks in this thread after two more games because of this as well.

The only exception to this I've really seen so far is Washington but that appears to be a coaching issue more than anything else and the Islanders are probably the deepest of the "less deep" teams.

Keeping Anderson was the right call at the time knowing what we knew then. Wild Bill looked like he was a bottom 6 center who could play on the PK at the time. In hindsight, it's ugly, though.
