So who is everyone cheering for in the 2nd round? Mine are:

MTL - Duh.
VGK - I like Colorado. However, they’re going to be contenders for a really long time. They have a massive window to win, and can easily win the cup at any point in the next decade. Vegas’s window is not nearly as wide. Vegas has Pacioretty, which makes me like them more. Plus Vegas would be easier for the habs to match up against if it gets to that.
CAR - I really like the Hurricanes, and I’d be cheering for them anyways. But that is really emphasized now that they’re playing Tampa Bay, who almost all of their players have won the cup. Carolina would probably be the 2nd team I’m cheering for that’s left.
NYI - I like them a bit more than the Bruins. Plus Bergeron, Marchand, Krejci, and Rask already have a cup ring.


Habs, Avs, Canes, and Islanders.

Jets - I like their team colors
Lightning - Their stadium is nice and Coleman/Marron
Avs - I like Mack
Islanders - Palmieri, Schneider, Zajac, Greene

Yeah, whoever comes out of the North will play the Avs, and Carolina or Tampa will play Boston or New York I. If the Canes advance, we will be facing one of the teams we faced in 2019. CAR vs NYI would be much more interesting this year though. Tampa is also familiar with both teams from their cup run last year.


Or Golden Knights lol

Yes, them too, but with the way it's going right now the Avs are looking like a lock. But hey, you never know.

That’s how you score goals in the postseason. Take notes Maple Laughs

It only works in the second round so the notes wouldn't be much use.

Did you know if you look up relentless in the dictionary, there not words. Just pictures of the Hurricanes' penalty killers. Sheesh.

I am very disappointed by the Canes. We just haven't been able to generate much. If we lose this game, we're toast.

Yeah we can't generate any good scoring chances (ahem... we forgot how to receive a pass, so we need a bit of Gordon Bombay teaching here.), but guys like Slavin on the penalty kill are relentess.

If you were rooting for the canes, there was nothing. We spent most of the time playing defense and screwing up on the few chances we got. They can't handle the dang puck under pressure 😬

Holy Cr*p...
Leafs big guns have their chances yet can't buy a goal.
Then tonight, Killorn wheels/skips one from 70ft-out and gets his 5th of the playoffs.

Hockey Gawds is a real thing!

Ned has been good but if the Killorn goal stands do you look at Mrazek?
