MartinFF7 05/04/21 10:54:58 AM #6:	Emeraldegg posted... The hurricanes are the best team in the NHL, discuss This Nedeljkovic kid gave me Binnington-rookie vibes when he was playing pretty darn well in Mrazek's absence. And like Binnington, he bailed my fantasy team out on more than one occasion, so I like him. Yet even after Mrazek returned, they continued to start Reimer. WHY. Guy is a pending UFA and there's no reason to keep him with the Mrazek-Ned 1-2 combo. Also he sucks compared to the two of them. Every Reimer start (other than a back-to-back when Mrazek was injured) should've been a Ned start. Makes me so mad every time... he better be on the shelf for the rest of the year. Anyways, I do seriously like Carolina's chances of getting out of their division if their goaltending holds up, Tampa Bay/Florida are both scary this year, but I like Carolina more. Final 4 is gonna be more interesting: Fun playoff fact I didn't know until this moment: there's no conferences this year, the 4 division winners get reseeded based on points (I assume points percentage since games played are going to be all over the place) and it's a 1vs4 and 2vs3. Makes sense considering the current situation and all but could provide some semifinal matchups we'd never normally see. If the playoffs started today and all the current division leaders won their divisions, the semifinals would be Carolina vs. Washington (just like old times) and Vegas vs. Toronto (expansion season cup finalist vs. team that hasn't sniffed a finals in 54 years). davidponte posted...

MartinFF7 05/25/21 11:58:28 AM #24:	I still believe in Ned... I still don't know how he wrested the starter role from Mrazek either? I tried googling to see if anyone gave an explanation and came up empty. Very surprising (but good!) Back to back double OT losses and lots of goals let in during those games, not so good. of course the Lightning are looking more dangerous than ever with Kucherov back but if Carolina can get out of the division, they would have a good shot of playing the Leafs (assuming the Leafs win their division, loleafs). Advantage of the stanley cup semifinal re-seeding is there's no way Carolina can play Colorado or Vegas in the semis, at least. <cite>MartinFF7 posted [p:954281824] in No board 8...

MartinFF7 06/01/21 3:13:39 PM #44:	Plenty of takes are being thrown around on who's at fault - overpaid superstars, underperforming vets brought in, Dubas for not trading for Taylor Hall... I don't see anybody blaming Campbell but if it was Andersen that was the starter I'd be blaming him instantly, lol. But all I can think about is the regular season record-tying Lightning team that got swept in the first round by the Bluejackets, then won the cup the following year. And seem to have all the pieces to do it again. What changed for the Lightning between those 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons, really... the wiki article only claims they added Anton Stralman and Pat Maroon, neither of those are game changers. They had Kucherov, Stamkos and Vasilevskiy when they were swept. In which case the argument would be, the Leafs don't really need to change anything and maybe it'll all work out next year. Which I'm sure is what people thought last year, lol... <cite>MartinFF7 posted [p:954531564] in No board 8...

Crescent-Moon 06/03/21 7:54:47 PM #50:	The Islanders have given up a goal within the first 10 minutes 8 times in their 9 playoff games, and within the first 4 minutes 5 times. This is.. Not a formula for winning in the playoffs against competent teams. --- So a planet's somewhere out there, their history the same as ours is written. The only difference is that...
