Pickard makes his playoffs debut, no pressure

No worries, they still have Jack Campbell as a secret weapon .

Boston has a putrid offensive group

I saw the crosscheck play that lead to Bennett scoring last game and I'm not sure if it was because it was in slow-mo, but it didn't look too bad, like Coyle shouldn't have fallen, but I think as he went forward he caught a part of Swayman and fell.

The inconsistent officiating is what I don't like. A penalty in the 1st isn't a penalty in the 3rd.
Refs generally have gotten worse and worse.
Imagine NFL refs not calling holding calls in the 4th quarter?

Case and point...they allow thuggery and then call a stupid penalty with an embellishment...

I'm not surprised. Bergevin does have flaws but I do think he was better in the last 1/3 of his tenure than he was in the middle 1/3. Some of our best pieces comes from Bergevin (like it or not)... Suzuki, Caufield, Guhle, Roy.

The real question is has he learned from his mistakes.

He was stingy. He didn't get fleeced as he never gave up a lot, but that conservative approach really made him waste prices prime years because he was always overly cautious. He could make a decent team in CLB but I doubt they'd be a cup contender.

I would love to see Nilan and Kordic in their prime against these punk ass Panthers

What in the world is this?

The rule book is out the window in the playoffs and that dictates how certain teams are forced to adjust in order to have success.

I didn't realize Nashville was that high. But they have 2 retained salaries Johansen & Ekholm, and 2 buyouts, Duchene & Turris. They have 5 years left for Duchene & 4 for Turris. Duchene could win a cup this year with Dallas.

And you just never know what will and won't be called

 

[Stive Morgan]

A very deep team like Dallas thinks otherwise

@ me when they win the Cup because they ain't

If Daddy scores a GWG in the Finals I will shove an entire Dallas Stars Evgenii Dadonov jersey up my ass

If Bergevin comes back I wonder who he brings back between Michou and Dumb-Dumb. Or maybe both?

that would be amazing.

Maurice challenging on goaltender interference

 

[Whitesnake]

That's just a bad challenge in my opinion. You could make a point about his stick touching Bob's skate...but enough?

 

[Maliki2]

Thats interference but you know they wont call it.

 

[McGees]

NHL.
where rules are as clear as mud.

 

[Maliki2]

Make up call from yesterday. Embarrassing.

 

[Whitesnake]

If Maurice would have been wise, you don't call it. There's no way they go against Boston for something that close. And now, they could lead 3-1.

 

[Apoplectic Habs Fan]

Dont think Fla should have counted and dont think that should either but NHL as always, the rules are pretty fluid depending on how hungry, or if the war room was fighting with ther wife, a late night, or if one had to pee badly.

I need a gif of Jim Montgomery doing the back flip pretend flop for the dive by Luostarinen
