Draisaitl scored 3 or more points in every game this series.

That totals to 17 points in 5 games.

Gaudreau will be a good golfer in CAL.

He'll be a GR8 golfer in PHILLY (they are done by Christmas seasonally)...

He’s arguably the best player in the league at making plays standing still lol


Case in point

Technically he did.

I can't find the words to express my excitement.

The Flames got jobbed but I cannot bring myself to care. I feel for the fans to an extent having had to live through Kessler yarding on Talbot's pad but my utter happiness is winning that game of tug-of-war.

Give me the Avalanche but not until that series sees seven brutal games.

Indeed.

But I am thankful you showed those Calgary Frauds.

They weren't that good against much weaker team in Dallas. And they were significantly worse against an even team in Edmonton.

I think DAL would've given a much greater challenge to EDM than CGY did.

Or at the very least I don't think Draisaitl would've gotten 17 points in one series against us lol

The Oilers are halfway through some of their historic demons. The Avalanche made fools of the Oilers in the early 2000s. Give me them and give me the Hurricanes for the cup final. Exercising all of the bad juju

I can't believe that is actually happening, for most of my life the Oilers were terrible but finally for the first time since I was in elementary school they Oilers are going to the WCF and it couldn't have happened in a better fashion

I...don't think you'll be facing Canes in the final.

There's some bad weather in the way of that...or to be more specific...lightning.

Not that Hurricanes can be associated with good weather either mind you.

I'm hurt that you have Canes over Bolts in ECF, but I would happily pull for an Oilers cup win as long as it's not them vs. Lightning in SCF

There's a canyon in quality between Carolina and Florida. It would be unwise to pencil the Lightning into the final already...

You're early.

I was a 1 year old when Stars won their Stanley Cup. I was 22 when they made it to the finals last time, in which they were decimated in.

On paper I'd say that Florida had more quality actually. For some reason they just were utter sh*t from the get-go.

There's just something wrong with CAR when playing as the visiting team. Luckily for them they have the home advantage against all opponents they face from now on unless they face Avs in the finals.

Bolts 16-0 after loss
Canes can't win on road

Hypothetical ECF:
Canes H1: Canes W (Canes 1-0)
Canes H2: Lightning W (Tied 1-1)
Bolts H1: Lightning W (Bolts 2-1)
Bolts H2: Lightning W (Bolts 3-1)
Canes H3: Canes W (Bolts 3-2)
Bolts H3: Lightning W (Bolts 4-2)

One of those streaks are gonna have to give in the ECF if Canes are to move on to SCF

doesn't biznasty have to shave his head now? because I am pretty sure that him and Whitney made a bet at the start of the season that if the Oilers made the WCF he would have to shave his head or beard or something like that.
