Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[Stephen]

Bad night for the Rangers.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

This is usually the hardest part in a 3-0 comeback. Winning game 5

Canes now have some momentum to take into game 6

 

[Darcy Tucker]

Bad night for the Rangers.

And for Russian alcoholics.

Unless you are the Leafs. Game 5 we can win in a 7 game series

It's the other games we have problem with

we only lose game 5 when it's soul crushing

Guy just can't get it together. Avs might be cooked, and you gotta wonder if they move on from Nuke after this.

That's a series changer. Not sure how the Avs will overcome this loss. I'll also be surprised if they don't terminate his contract this summer.

On the flip side, that will free up cap space for Landeskog when he returns next season lol

Much respect to Canes. what a fight back.

Nice story lines too.

Rod the bod has something to prove
Freddie has something to prove
Canes have something to prove

Imagine if Canes come back to win the series that would be legendary!

Literally only a handful of teams have done it in pro sports history (0 in basketball) so yeah for sure. But I have a hard time betting against Shesterkin in elimination games.

I doubt Carolina will win game 6. Their goaltending will inevitably let them down again.

freddy won't let it happen

 

[napoleon in rags]

Skinner is really bad

May as well go with Campbell, lol

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

The Avs looked awful in the first. It's like that Nichushkin news demoralized everyone

 

[Cleetus]

Wyatt Johnston is a player, dang is he good....

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Dirty pass by Robertson

 

[fahad203]

He's done in NHL
This is happening way too often

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Wyatt Johnston is so good

With him, stankoven, Robertson, hintz Dallas has a really good offensive core that’s versatile as well

As long as they don’t pull a leafs and fumble the contracts they’ll be in a good spot for 5+ years

 

[Squiffy]

Yup

They already nailed the Heiskanen contract, and Hintz's isn't a home run but still fine

 

[LaPlante94]

Probably safe to say he's done in Colorado and possibly the NHL. Question now is will Colorado be stuck with that contract on the books for the last 6 years of it.

"Makar and MacKinnon are unstoppable!"

No, they will move to terminate the contract with cause and they’ll get it. You can see a dispute by the PA, rightfully so, it’s their job, and they’ll settle, no cap hit.

Which is all fine.

 

[1specter]

I thought the second round would be more competitive but it's been pretty lopsided to start as well just from a series score standpoint, outside of the Canucks-Oilers (though Canucks could make it 3-1 tonight too lol). Again every series that has made it to 5 games so far has had one team up 3-1.

Can they do that with an addiction?

If they can’t That would be a nightmare for them.

6 months would be November. So you can’t plan your opening day roster and can’t rely on him to keep it together. Brutal
