Couple other thoughts from last night:
- some people are blaming Ovi for taking on a 19 year old kid, sorry but the kid went after Ovi; lesson learned millennial, don't challenge an all time great and a guy that has 50 pounds on you - that Leaf win was exhilarating, but Mitch Marner is a super stud, the dude blocks two huge shots with his face exposed; to steal a line from Teddy KGB, pey him, pey that man his mannney - didn't catch any of the late games, but see Avs debuted Cale Makar and he made immediate impact; talk about an xfactor, a hobey baker stud being plugged in to an already strong lineup

Good kid.

That's the most dead on draft profile. You even got the defense spot on: blocking shots, killing penalties, active stick. The defense is what continues to stand out, not to mention the magician part

If there's one thing I learned from the Columbus and Islanders sweeps, it's that I don't know anything and shouldn't make any predictions.
Also Crosby had no goals and just 1 assist in 4 games; who did Trotz give the assignment to? Adam Pelech.

Don't feel too bad, I don't think there is a person outside of Columbus, OH that picked anything other than Tampa in about 5.

Didn't know which thread to keep the playoff conversation going...so I chose this one!
Hurricanes man are a different team. They just find ways to win. Dallas if they can keep that offense out there every game will also be LETHAL. CBJ is going to be my pick to go all the way. Beating Tampa and Boston in rounds 1 and 2, it will only get easier for them after this series if they can pull it out.
Am I wild for thinking Avs and Blue Jackets in the finals!??

Carolina has been way better than expected, I was shocked they got past Washington, but to go up 2-0 against the Islanders as well, shit. I dunno what this team is on, but I want some.

Maybe they could give some hints to my JGHL team that'd be great I'd recommend you try a 1-1-3 strategy for your top 2 lines, you have some big boys, let'em take the body and create turnovers.
