SwampD Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 1 hour ago, Thorny said: Ya, it honestly annoys me a bit too. They have an asterisk, to me. There's no doubt the entire situation still required a Vegas collapse to happen, so in that sense Vegas still blew it, but there's no question that without that botched call, the Sharks don't win that series. It was over. Maybe it ultimately comes down to, "well, SOMEONE has to win it", and they've been winning since, but still. They should have been eliminated in the first round. Who ***** cares?! The entire Vegas existence has an asterisk. All two years of it. Welcome to the NHL. You got screwed. Get used to it. Go Sharks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 I’ll say it. When Milbury isn’t doing a Bruin’s game, he’s a pretty good color guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pimlach Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Well I slept through the second period and half of the 3rd of Blues-Sharks. Getting old I guess. Sharks have lots of skill. Blues have to do more than hit Karlsson or this will be over quick. They also need to stay out if the box. Timo Meir is really impressive as is Logan Couture. Binington - they need more from you.

Wyldnwoody44 Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Yep, even though the penalties in the first racked up, SJ was clearly the better team throughout. St Louis appeared to get off their game and just tried hitting, and only hitting. At this point, I just want the team that will smash Boston, to win.

Thorny Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 (edited) I think my order of "want to win" is: 1. Boston 2. Carolina 3. St. Louis 4. San Jose It's rather a mark of the teams left that I have the Bruins at 1. Edited May 12, 2019 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude_Verret Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 My order of want to win Sharks/ Blues Bruins Effin Canes. It's a huge mark that I've been forced to abandon my doctrine of never rooting for a team to get their first cup because of the two vomitous teams left in the East.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 It will be interesting to see how the Carolina home ice hysteria impacts the team. It was significant, I believe, in turning them around against the Caps after being down 2-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 WTF, Blues. I guess, if they take this series, at least they'll liberally apply hits to the head of Bruins as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 The East was better than the West all year, and has been dominating in the finals the last several. I see no reason why the Bruins won't steam-roll whoever comes out of the West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwampD Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Man, I really hate the Bruins,… but I have to admit, they're a pretty good team, and I like Brad Marchand,… and I really like seeing R'd Br'nd'mor' squirm in the podium after the game. ***** that guy.
