2018 NHL Thread

Caps being the Caps.

Yeah, but they dominated that game. Two dumb penalties and that was that.

The BJ's 2nd goal was sick.

I also took into account playoff experience, streaks. But mostly it was just gut feeling. I've watched a few games with both teams this year and felt that they were fairly even but the experience will pay off for the Lightning. Wouldn't hurt my feelings to see the Devils pull off the upset though.

Well, Tampa Bay is up 2-0 as the series moves to NJ. Devils are just not playing good defense. Kincaid's luck has run out. I think Schneider will get the call in the net for Game 3.

Looks like Jersey got thier win

And they were sloppy in doing so.
They need some defensemen in the off season.

So Tampa Bay was down 3-2 with about a minute and a half left AND on a power play. They decided to pull the goalie to get a 2-man advantage. Then came two empty net goals by the Devils.
As good as Tampa Bay is, and as terrible as NJ defense is, I don't know why they pulled the goalie while on a power play.

I've NEVER been a fan of pulling the goalie a man up. Free icing makes it just way too easy to get a goal.

Yeah that's one of the weirdest things I've seen.

My LA Kings are torturing me to death, I don't see them coming back from 0-3

[Wildcat Ryan]

And again the LA Kings make a quick (no pun intended) exit from the playoffs.

[Gil Dobie]

Jets are 1 game away from winning the series.

[Ivytalk]

Flyers look like shyt. Cindy Crosby has castrated them in this series. No offense, no goaltending, no defense.

Fire Hakstol.

[Ivytalk]

Flyers postpone the inevitable with a 4-2 win in Pittsburgh last night.

Fire Hakstol.

Hockey is over in Minnesota and the ice isn't even off the lakes.

Lots of praises for the Jets fans compared to the Philly fans.

Hopefully the Linc prepares care packages for the Vikings fans who come to the 2018 regular season Eags-Vikes game. Tissues, comfort foods, cheese for the whine, etc. Maybe turn down the piped in music and have violinists play during breaks. Anything to calm their fragile souls.

Flyers with an early exit, once again owned by the Pens.

Flyers with an early exit, once again owned by the Pens.

They had a 4-on-3 advantage and I think they only had 2 shots on goal in the third period and down by 1 goal.
They kept passing up shots. Not that I care about the Flyers but I wanted to see a Game 7.

I watched the whole game. The Flyers defense and goaltending were equally awful today. The refs didn't help either. I forget the score, maybe 5-4, but Sean Couturier was blatantly tripped along the boards, then the Pens banged the turnover right home. Killer.

Fire Hakstol. And get a real goalie.

You're going to have to wait another year before Carter Hart comes up most likely - so get ready for more Elliott & Neuvirth filler next season.

Cindy and Alex dancing again. Will Cindy leave Alex behind for the 10th time in 11 tries?

Now Ovie is responsible for playoff losses in the 80's and 90's? Man, you sound like Mike Milbury.

No, Alexa is just the current dance partner.

Then how is it going to be the 10th time?

10th time the Pens beat the Caps in 11 tries. Cindy and Alexa are the current stars.

I’ll say either Vegas or Winnipeg against Pittsburgh in the finals.
