unreal...

Re: The NHL Thread
 

missed that last one by a centimeter.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I was unpacking an old box today and found a Caps clapper and the cup from an early 90s playoff series with the Islanders.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Couldn't believe it. That was as close as you can get.

That 5th goal by Dallas was so crazy, too. What the hell is Dubnyk thinking?

Home from work, belly is full and it's time for hockey. Big game. Let's do this !!!

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This offseason will be huge for the Flyers. A lot of waste to be cut from this team. Hopefully some of our young players can come up next year and have an impact like Ghost bear did

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Have I mentioned how annoying it is that all of the Panthers/Islanders series and all of the Preds/Ducks series have been unavailable on the nbc app.

Islanders because they are never on nbc or nbcsports and so it gets blacked out. I just want to be able to watch ONE game of that series.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Finally have time to give my two cents

I'm proud of this team and the effort. This wasn't a playoff team at the start the season and probably not going in. They need another scorer though. They have nothing on the second and third lines. But this team is ahead of the schedule and in Hextall We Trust.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Who the Sharks gonna play next round?

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Guessing the Ducks will win on the road tomorrow against the Preds and go straight into a round 2 series with the Sharks.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Hate the Ducks. I'd love to see the Sharks take them down.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

I really had hopes the Preds were gonna take down the Ducks.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Yeah, I would love to see SJ beat up on the Ducks too. I hoped that Nashville would knock them out when they took a quick 2-0 series lead nut the Ducks have most likely shook that off.

On another note, it is relatively annoying that I have to watch some commercial on NHL.com just to see video replays. I did pay them over a hundred buck before the season started and now I still have to see a damn commercial every time I want to watch a goal, save, hit, etc, etc.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

i wish they'd play something during the regular season during commercials instead of the stupid static screen.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Just wanted to say again how happy I am they got it done today

Perhaps it's sad I take so much joy in a round one win

But today felt great

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Never fucking easy. Jt baby with under a minute ties it up after Leddy (thanks hawks) makes a 200ft rush. Brooklyn erupted when he scored.

Off to OT.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Cats are screwed haha

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Enjoy it! They got it done with a well earned win. Now the real work begins for both of our teams.

And the Isles tied it up with the goalie pulled! Crazy games today.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

It's not sad at all. Winning any playoff series is always an amazing feeling. Part of what makes the Stanley Cup Playoffs so fucking great.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Man,my heart rate is elevated.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

This is why it's the best playoff system in sports. Absolute grind for four rounds.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Playoff OT is just the best. Especially when a series is on the line

I wanna see that building explode. I had NYI in 6 in my bracket anyway. Go Isles

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Man, Quine had the best scoring chance there in the first OT. Imagine the storyline there if he scored. Back to back ot game winners to send the islanders to the next round. They'd erect a statue tomorrow in his honor.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Special play by a special player. Can't believe we are moving on. Monkey off the back. Going back to Florida but to Tampa.

Want to hug someone but everyone in the house asleep.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Congrats Sal! First playoff win since 1993. I can't even imagine how good that must feel after that long.


I do feel for Florida and their fans. Young team though. This should only be the start.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Beautiful stuff from JT. The guy's a legend now

Congrats, Sal

Re: The NHL Thread
 

That was awesome by Tavares. Looking forward to the Islanders series, dads a big Islanders fan and grew up in the early 80's during their run. Happy he got to see them win a series for the first time in 20+ years.

Cooper said Stralman could be back for game 1 which would be a big boost for the defense. I'm hoping Drouin continues to play well and keep the offense afloat without Stamkos. Obviously Kucherov and Johnson have played great too but Drouin really added something against Detroit, especially on the PP. As long as Bishop does his thing I think Tampa should win in 6.

Re: The NHL Thread
 

That JT man. Fun to watch!

Re: The NHL Thread
 

Tavares has been so good lately. My bracket is absolute shit at this point, I think the Stars are the only correct pick I've made :lol
