NHL Playoffs - First Round

[The Oracle]

Does Pierre Maguire still have an active stick.

Maybe we can use Chucker to get rid of Ron McLean. If The Round Mound of Rebound tells him to fan culo he cant hide behind Don Cherry.

Guaaarneteeeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sir Charles is more knowledgeable about Canada's game than I thought...

In the current political climate, wouldn't a Washington/Ottawa conference final be interesting?

Not really, I think that'd be dull.

I don't know about that, he used to be a GM. But as a color commentator he was a tad hyperbolic lol.

Check out how long Maguire lasted as an NHL coach/executive...he doesn't last long.

I know he wasn't very good at it. It didn't help that his team's talent was meh.

Chucker picked the Oilers to win the Stanley Cup. If they get eliminated in the first round his prognostication skills will be called into question. Shaq will ride him hard. The Oilers defense may be too timid to advance.

From what I was watching prior to the playoffs stating, many were taking the Kings over the Oilers. Chuck must not watch much hockey.

Leads are in the drivers seat right now. Sens now have to win 4.Leafs will take the series 4-1

Last nights game between the Blues and the Jets passed an NHL record for most hits in one game at 131 total hits: 68 Winnipeg, 63 St. Louis.
131 hits in a game that’s only 60 minutes.
The last record was 120 hits set in 2019.

Neither team is going to survive this series easily.

Kudos to whoever hired Derek Lalonde, the Red Wings coach, as a guest analyst on the playoff panel. He has been insightful and entertaining.

Mikko Rantenan single handedly won this game for the Stars. 8 points his the past 2 games. 12 points in this series and 113 in his playoff career. This right here should tell Brad Treliving that keeping Marner is a big mistake and to let him walk into free agency.

Some interesting tidbits from last nights game:
--Rantanen becomes the first player in NHL history to score a hatrick in the 3rd period of a game 7.
--Dallas coach Peter Deboer's record in game 7's is now 9-0.
--Colorado's coach Jared Bednar's record in game 7's is now 0-4.

Most interesting.
As an Avalanche fan I was devastated that Rantanen came back to haunt us. Its too bad they couldn't have kept him, he's a top 10 talent in this league.

I'm not sure if you saw his interview after the game, but a very sincere tribute to his former teammates.
