I still wish the Flyers won the cup with Michael Leighton and alternate goalie I forgot at this time. Reminds me when they were trying to do it with Hextall and Sean Burke.

Damn you Chicago! Heh. What a crazy year made the playoffs on a shoot out win.

Pens are cleaning house as they get rid of Hextall, Burke and Chris Pryor

welcome and expected. i didn't hate Hextall, but he clearly wasn't getting the job done. i definitely miss GMJR, though.

So our playoff draft has weird rules.

6 teams, we each draft 11 players.

We can only draft 2 players from a team, and ONCE we can draft 3 players from a team. Have to have a single goalie.

It really forces you to think if you wanna go depth on a team you think may go far (like the 10th best player on the Bruins) versus the best player on a team you suspect will lose. 2 points for a goal, 1 for an assist. Goalies get a point for a win, 2 for a shutout, and points for points.

I kinda like the Wild to beat the Avs if they face each other. The Avs are beat up and I feel like the Wild are pretty damn good.

last two games tonight.

Buffalo is clear to win without hurting their draft position, Columbus needs a regulation loss to stay behind Chicago.

Colorado needs two points to win the Central, Nashville moves down a pick order with a win. They'd also move ahead of both Eastern Wildcards teams in points, as meaninglessly disappointing as that may be.

tbh almost no one paid any attention to the Devils but they have a fun team with solid depth and a lot of talent. They might be able to cause a bit of a surprise imo

Canada getting the cup again would be nice. Kraken getting the cup in it's second year would be epic.
Indifferent about anything else, but it's probably going to be Boston. Can't be mad about an original-six cup.

I am Jeff, as one might imagine.

I'm going for some LONG shots, but if the Panthers can take it even to seven games, Tkachuk and Barkov will likely have 8-9 points each. I think the Wild can take on the Stars so.... sure?

At the end of the first round I'll either be crushing it or I will BE crushed.

Florida is that team that never took the step to the next level. Why do I feel like the Beezer backed team in '96 was the best one. It certainly wasn't but they did make the finals. Heck Beezer was on the cover of EA's game.

I counter with a bag of pucks, and a shiny, crisp Canadian 20 dollar bill which is surely more valuable than a 10 dollar US bill. Probably, a bit.

As a Canadian, im fine with any team winning as long as it isnt the Leafs who I despise or Vancouver and their Stanley Cup Final (on two occasions now) rioting fans.
