Is it too much to ask for the Leafs to choke? I believe that'll they get in. Sadly.

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

Me too. I want the Leafs to lose this game, preferably in regulation. I don't want them in the playoffs.

I don't care if they get in, I just want them to have to play the Caps. They'll probably manage to beat Ottawa,and more than one round of Leafs fans in the playoffs will probably drive me over the edge. Too bad the Bruins got injured and choked away their last 2 games.

I want the Caps to play Boston. Because Tuuka's getting good and I think Boston is a sneaky dark horse pick.

Did you watch the game today? Even if Krug and Carlo are healthy (doubtful) they're gonna get destroyed. And they still haven't figured out how to play against Ottawa's trap either, so I'm predicting a first round exit either way. Everybody's saying they're a dark horse pick because of underlying numbers but the depth just isn't there, especially on defense.

I think they dealt with the trap decently on Thursday against Ottawa. They were way better about getting through the neutral zone and into Ottawa's zone than the previous game. Plus on principle any team playing the trap should just not be allowed to make it very far. I despise this Senators' team's brand of hockey.

God, it's so mind-numbingly boring to watch. You're right, but it's a little disconcerting that it was pretty much a must-win game against an injured Ottawa roster and they couldn't figure out how to win. I have some hope they'd be able to make it work over a 7 game series, but my playoff buzz is a little dimmed considering the prospect of either a boring Ottawa series or a Caps series that they'll probably lose in 5 games, ngl.

Tuukka* Sorry it's just pain to see his name misspell so many times

Sorry that's my bad for not proofreading to see what auto-correct effed up for me.

Goddamn it, Pens, you had ONE job and that was to keep them out.

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

SERIOUSLY

The one time I actually wanted the Pens to win, they couldn't pull it out for me (and for Tampa...who I really wanted to make the playoffs)

GOD I'M SO SAD FOR TAMPA, THE LITTLE INJURED TEAM THAT LIVED.

AYRT

the only possible silver lining to this would be if Drouin gets to play at Worlds with Mackinnon (can someone please make this happen?

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

ayrt
ohhhh, I hope he goes. I'm also super scared he's going to ask for a trade again this summer and end up on a team I hate but for now I hope he has fun with his bf at Worlds.

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

MacKinnon already agreed to go, so hopefully it'll happen.

Stupid Pen I hope you lose somehow. Boo.

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

The Pens sat a quarter of their roster, in addition to those already out with injuries. I wanted us to win (ideally off that own-goal, because that was hilarious), but at least Phil scored a great goal!

And I think Toronto is still out if they lose in regulation to Columbus tomorrow.

Re: Game Day Thread: April 08, 2017

No, they're in. If they lost tomorrow they'll have to play Washington, iirc.

No, Leafs are in, with tonight's win they have 95 points, even if the Lighting and Islanders win tomorrow can only get to 94 points.
