Taking an extra week or so off for healing is very very beneficial this time of year, but then there is that "rust" that could form. Surprised that Dallas is clawing back a bit, they didn't look like they had a prayer after game 3 It could really hurt. I recall Danny Gare remarking that the Sabres had 10 days off in 1980 before having to play the Islander. He said it wasn't until game 3 that the Sabres has kicked off all if the rust. By then, the Sabres were already down 2-0, from which they never recovered. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hill doesn’t make 2-3 out of this world stops last night, it’s a 6-2 rout. He absolutely should have stopped the 3rd goal regardless, the flow of play was about even and the shots were close 5 hours ago, triumph_communes said: Eichel and Reinhart are both on stacked teams. Here they had to be THE guys. They don’t have that pressure now. Depth is everything. Eichel is their best player Like just for the record. He was in the regular season, and he’s the betting favourite on that team for the Conn Smythe right now you are definitely correct depth is everything. Anyone that has to be THE guy is set up to fail. No matter the team Edited May 28, 2023 by Thorny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lyon does have to play and he plays like he did when Bobrovsky was out with his illness they might not miss a beat. If instead Lyon plays like Lyon, then yes, they'd be in trouble. Lyon's play is the biggest reason that team snuck into the last seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida to mean seems to be another team in a long line of Cinderella teams we so often see who’s runs stall out come the final.

It was a fluke deflection off his d-mans stick, it didn’t even go short side, but found a way through his pad and his arm, so you can’t fault his positioning either.

Suppose we’ll see but I’ll take the West winner Not sure just how much of a Cinderella they are. Granted, it was with a different coach and with Huberduberdeux and Weegar rather than with Tkachuk, but this team was the top regular season team 1 year ago. They might be the poster child for the (official*) reason the league lets 1/2 of the teams into the dance; it gives teams that either have injuries or issues gelling an opportunity to still compete for Lord Stanley's chalice even though they didn't bring their A game all year long. And if Dallas can win this next game, we'll get to see if exhaustion is more of an issue than rust in that next round. Expecting exhaustion would be a bigger issue, but maybe not. Either way it should be a good series. * We all know that's a bunch of hooey and the real reason is playoff TV (and other) revenue is where the BIG money is at.
