Did HBK lift the cup 2 years ago? No. But they were the reason they advanced Did MAF lift the cups at year? No. And he’s the reason they won that cup Right people at the right time. Again I’ll trade luck over skill 12/10 times |

As a Caps fan I hate the Pens. I also know they’ve been the kryptonite to the Caps
When Cosby went down last year I remember saying to myself, “I don’t want to beat the Pens down their best player”. Call it an ego thing or whatever you want but I genuinely want the Caps to make the run without any outside help As a Caps fan myself and our fan base have been hurting for a genuine run. I hope we can get it I want to win but I also don’t want it tainted |

The Caps really turned me off last year. That was a big one for me. Of course I'll always love them, but my willingness to devote significant time to them diminished big time after they got bounced last year. I cut my cable for good this season for the first time, so I haven't watched them hardly at all this season, but I'm back in through Sling for the playoffs. At this point, I just hope they make this fun and don't let us down again. I really don't care who it's against. |

I’ve always been an out of market subscriber so ‘Keeping Up with the Caps’ has always been a challenge I will agree that following them this year has been rough knowing the inevitable outcome. It was easier following them when they were the best team in the league Will I be there for the SCF’s if they’re there? Of course. Am I as invested this year compared to the previous 2 years? Not in the slightest |

But I couldn't help myself for the playoffs, I'm a true sucker for these guys. Ready to feel the pain again! :lol I'm actually really excited about the CBJ series. Tortorella is always a good time. Plus we've never faced them before in the playoffs so that should be cool. The Caps definitely shouldn't look past them. I know we all fantasize about Pittsburgh but Columbus is no walk in the park. |

Kings are not connecting on anything. Vegas has been the better team by far tonight.
And while Quick has made a lot of stellar saves, he’s not seeing the puck well tonight. |
Re: The NHL Thread (Avs are in the playoffs! 3elieve!)
If I didn’t have a flight in 2 hours, it would have been hella cool to watch this game at a bar in Hamburg; if hockey is even a thing here, idk. Love watching the opening runs of the playoffs.
I feel like 3lieve would have been better than 3elieve lol. I get that they’re saying the 3 looks like a B, but three can rhyme with the be in believe. Threelieve. Still pretty shitty tho lol |
Re: The NHL Thread (Avs are in the playoffs! 3elieve!)
The backread was fun. Only thing I wish to comment on was I think the two loudest reactions last year of Pens lifting the cup were MAF and Kessel. If my memory serves correctly.
Also MAF’s tribute video from his return this year showed him hoisting each cup and in the parade. I don’t think there’s any question both from fans and media alike that there would have been no cup without MAF last year. |

Twice Kopitar had the puck in the slot and fucked around trying to get it to his backhand instead of just taking the shot. That was frustrating. Brown missed a wide open net. If they work on getting the puck to the net they will be fine. The Knights are too fast to try to do too much. Keep it simple. Vegas was more physical, interested to see if they can keep that up. Kempe was the best skater, which surprised me. LaDue was terrible, they need Muzzin back. |

I most enjoyed the Jets v Wild game last night. That will be a tight series. Kings and Knights game was too late for me to watch. Vegas seems to really love their team though. I am still impressed with how quickly I have gotten used to them being in the league. They fit right in.

So either the Coyotes allowed this one time use or the Jets are really pushing that new logo. It looks as if the Coyotes still keep the team history of the old Jets and the current Jets keep the history of the Thrashers. This doesn't seem to be a case of when the Browns moved to Baltimore where the Ravens became a new franchise and the former Browns players became Ravens. In that case the league kept the Browns intellectual property and they retained their team history when they came back in 1999. |

*Did Doughty leave his feet? No. *Was he charging? No. *Was it a blindside hit? No. Carrier was looking down, but Doughty was not out of his line of sight. *Was contact made with the head? Looks like he mostly got Carrier's shoulder, with some head contact made as he skated through the check. *Was he targeting the head? I see no reasonable evidence to lead me to believe that Doughty was not trying to make a shoulder-on-shoulder check. * Did Carrier put himself in a compromised situation? Nope, not really. I mean, guy's gotta keep his head up when he's driving to the net but he didn't really do anything to put himself in a vulnerable position. IMO, no supplemental discipline should be assessed. |
