LV and Dallas last night never went long in to OT less that 2 minutes
Interesting to see how Carolina and Florida recovered after their marathon the other night

Man this playoff gotta suck if your a Flames fan. Tkachuk is running the show without a police man to keep him in check.

I'm actually really enjoying watching Tkachuk, Bennett, Reinhardt and Lomberg having a great playoff run on this surprise underdog team. It has been probably the best playoff hockey to watch. The whole team has been amazing, Barkov and Bobrovsky (having already mentioned Tkachuk and Bennett) especially. Sadly they aren't Flames anymore, but I don't have to be bitter about it.

Last night when they went to OT I thought here we go again but the penalty and the Florida PP made short work of it.

No surprises.
Everyone knew the winner between Vegas/Edm was taking the cup.

I hope Vegas takes it but there can be an upset in the making....when it comes to playoff hockey there always are surprises/upsets etc
The momentum swing can change just by having a few injuries.

The Panthers have the momentum at the right time. They will be hard to beat down the stretch.

Now that, fine Sir, is some inventive math.

Very inventive, and based totally on baseless assumptions.

I think Bobrovsky is the one word for the Panthers’ success in these series. I haven’t gotten a chance to watch a single game, unfortunately, but replays and recaps. It like watching a machine in the net. Damn… The guy is playing with the money they are paying him and probably a little more; and they are paying a lot of coin there. Too bad I am missing all these games. I may get a chance to watch the next (last?) one.
I’d say I really couldn't care less who wins at this point, but if it is Florida and Bob, I am all for it. I had though it would be the Canes, but it doesn’t look like it.

They say in any series your goalie has to steal at least 1 game, well in Florida Bobrovsky has just stolen 3 games in a row and unless he get's injured they will be hard to beat. He has a .981 save % in this series, that's just wow and Carolina has had a couple bad bounces or they could be up 2 - 1 in the series but they are not and that's why they play the games, awesome to watch

Once FLA defeated the Bruins I figured they would be tough. It is some run they are on. Often said the first round is so tough.

Vegas is rolling
The stars are in trouble 8 minutes in and they are down 3 - 0 on just 5 shots

Goaltending wins in the end.
Look like a couple of sweeps may be coming in the semifinals.

Dallas has a few fans that need to be invited to an after hour on ice scrimmage...Benn needs to sit the next game as a repeat offender of cross checking...Vegas just needs to finish them off.

I have no doubt that Benn will get at least 1 game for that cross check, that was nasty, he has probably played his last game of the season, Dallas seems to have no answer for LV, I think this one is over tomorrow night.
Florida well can't count the kanes out just yet but it's just a matter of time before the panthers are home cooling out for the final push, LV and the panthers should be a good series

I hope before Vegas kicks arse again to end the series that Benn gets a good beating. Cross check a guy on the neck when he is down. What a POS.

Maybe someone on Vegas, maybe their captain, could two hand him. Show Dallas they aren't gonna take that kind of shenanigans.

Pietrangelo would be a good guy to do it, he practiced up on Draisaitl

Benn gets 2 games for that nasty cross check. So Vegas will be on to the next round before he is back. No retribution necessary.

Yes, of course. Unfortunate landing point. Extending both arms forcefully while grasping stick and landing unfortunately right on a vulnerable Captains neck.
Benn playing the Din Doo Nuffin card.
And for the record, I think Panthers win the Cup.

Calgary playoff spot nets 3rd game winner of the series.
And Bobrovski playing lights out.
Golden knights will sweep.
Edmonton will remain second best in the league.
