You hate to see it.  

Not that I didn't see this coming.  Our backups took them to a SO...

[Wyldnwoody44]

Thought Dallas would look better, both games were won by the superior team today and I didn't give the losers a chance... At least for today. 

Could care less about the 8pm game but playoffs are so fun so I'll watch

Dark

But funny

Car v Ott. Didn’t see the game, but couldn’t help but notice one stat.

Carolina had 57 Hits. Ottawa 39.

One physical game

Expect the Bruins will be doing likewise.

Looking forward to our response.

Game was very physical. Especially periods one and two. Things loosened in the third, and I expect that is how the series will ultimately play. Senators have the ability to take them to 6....but they have to win the next game. Carolina is do good at locking down scoring attempts. I don't believe there is any way they lose this series

I hate Dallas. But those jerseys scream 90's. I think they are either amazing or terrible. But they scream Koho.

They were really daring the Sabres to put the goat heads on.

Terrible.

The Wild, meanwhile, have the sharpest whites in the league, followed closely by Montreal and Buffalo.

Flyers/Penguins is starting to get intense

The Penguins' jerseys are not easy on the eyes

Someone saw what a bad look it was in Nashville and said “hey, let’s do that”

So glad we don't have a current jersey that I would dislike

Someone was paid actual money to make that decision. Crazy!

Just saw a Flyers' player get blatantly tripped in the background of the play with no call. Playoff hockey has arrived

I watch all of the hitting and am reminded about the elevated intensity of playoff hockey. It is no longer an 80% league at this time of year.

I am curious to see if Owen Power has a breaking point where he decides to hit back. It is not in his DNA but I wonder if at some point, after getting drilled for the 14th time by a Bruin, he says “F*** this” and starts dishing out some hits.

This is what he's waited all his career for...

Also looks like DeBoer was right.  I mean it's not ALL on the goalie, but he hasn't been good.

I’d love to play Carolina cause even though it’s 20 years later we can still beat this man 

Will take a win any way we can get it.  But it would be so incredibly special to go through Boston, Montreal, Hartford, and Quebec on the way to our 1st championship ever.

Buffalo whites are *chefs kiss* love them. 

Deciding between the below for tomorrow. Kinda wish I did the RJ in white, but blue being home these days shifted me. RJ and a blank slug are my only blues.  

White Hasek
White Tuch
Black Goat Head Dahlin
Blue Rick Jeanerette

Edit: I lied, I have a blue Mogilny I totally forgot about. I love that jersey.faaahck. decisions decisions.

Dahlin has been lucky this year. But my RJ was lucky for the Bills two years ago. IDK. Ugh

Pittsburgh Powerplay is making ours look like the 1970s Canadiens.  It is brutal.
