tavares rounds out the top three in my books. but, yeah, price probably wins it.

Prediction: winner of Blues/Wild is in the cup

Too bad one of these teams has to be eliminated

Canucks are straight up bitchmade. Seriously the least likeable team in the entire league.

Edmonton wins the draft lottery. AGAIN.

The question remains, how will they manage to fuck up McDavid?

Obviously the biggest game of the season for the Sens. It'll be a sad day when the Habs close this series out, but I can't express how happy I am with where this team is and where they are headed. Our core of young players (Karlsson, Turris, Zibs, Stone, Hoff, Pageau, Lazar, Ceci - though he fucked up in Game 1) and older folk like Meth and Clarkie have me really happy. I don't know what's gotten into Bobby Ryan (even though I'm a big fan) and I've got no time for Michalek - but those guys need to start producing TONIGHT.

Question for us in the offseason will be what to do with our goaltending. Hammond was good in Game 2 (except for the weak OT winner) and he's worth keeping. I think Lehner will be the odd man out and it'll be Hammy/Anderson as 1A and 1B next season.

Srsly tho, fuck Montreal and especially Subban.

Christ what a 1st period. Need to sack up for the 2nd unlike the previous 2 games.

Looks like Peter Chiarelli gonna take over the ship in Edmonton. If this is true it's finally a step in the right direction to hire someone with hockey smarts as opposed to ex-oilers.

Wings just blew their series. 5 mins away from going up 3-1 in the series to this garbage...

Had to go to bed about 6 minutes left in the second (i'm too old to stay up late nowadays). Shortly after that filthy Doobie save with his foot. But best believe I'm pulling for your boys.

LOVE what I'm seeing from Dumba this series. I said a couple of years ago that he was gonna be a gamer for Minny and he's elevating his game in this series. Giving Ott the gears constantly.

Holy Shit at that comeback. I thought The Canucks would come back and win the series. Shows what I know.
Anyways, congrats Kiran!

Don't know why Ottawa has been so flat through 40 minutes here. Completely abandoned getting traffic in front of Price like they did in Game 5. Power Play is useless and essentially just killing time for Montreal to close this out. Don't like where this is headed.

Positive A · Post by **Positive A** » Sun Apr 26, 2015 9:16 pm

Just a crazy couple of months for the Sens but just didn't have it tonight. Disappointing end to the story.

I don't like a whole lot of teams beyond Ottawa, but three teams I do like are still alive. So I'm hitching my wagon to Calgary, Minny and Hockeytown.

Fairly accurate.

Crazy that Ottawa went all year without getting shut out, then gets shut out in an elimination game.

I only managed to catch bits of the third period, but the Sens had some excellent chances. I'd have loved to see them make a deep run, but it was not to be.

One of my buddies is a Sens fan, and he was actually rooting against a deep run. He felt like that would justify Melnyk's penny-pinching in his own mind, and lead to continued "budget-conscious" teams. There's so much cheap, young talent on the Senators. Hopefully the front office will pony up to keep some of it around.

Kiran187 · Post by **Kiran187** » Mon Apr 27, 2015 12:33 am

Fuck what a weekend of good hockey. Too bad the Sens are done. I really thought they were going to tie it up in the 3rd. Props to Minnesota too. I have a feeling that this is the year they finally knock off the Blackhawks. Fuckin' Flames...I really don't know what else to say. Even when they were down 3-0, I wasn't too worried because of how they have come back so many times. As soon as Ferland got that first goal I knew we were going to come back.

Positive A · Post by **Positive A** » Mon Apr 27, 2015 6:47 am

What's crazy is that Montreal didn't have a two goal lead in the series until paciorettysempty empty empty netter as time expired at the end of game six. Their stars didn't show up (except price obviously) and their power play was atrocious. 1 for 20. If Ottawa had won game three, the sens would have won this series.

you have no idea how much i hate the Blackhawks

Doobie should have saved that winner.

Bishop should have had a shutout on Pacioretty's goal in the other series.
