NHL Playoffs 2017
Bruins cutting it close but playing well. Big win over the Hawks in Chicago today. 5 wins in a row after 4 losses in a row.
Fired up about the B's right now. Do you have anything to say about your pitiful teams?

Wild limping in, hopefully Buds breaks from tradition this year

Flames are in! Still a rebuilding team and a long shot to win a round, but will test anyone they play.
Not a fan of the Greasers, but they have the most exciting player in hockey right now and are on a tear.
Ducks are veteran-laden team in top form.
Hawks are playoff money.
The west should be fun times this year.

That my Wings were pitiful? Or perhaps whatever is just a little worse than that?
I'm sure they'll contend again, but there will never be a 25 year playoff streak again post hard-cap. Fun while it lasted. Caps have always been my #2 team, we'll see how that works out. Hopefully they don't win the president's cup...Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there's a fit about to get thrown
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
It's the same old shit that I ain't gonna take off anyone.
and I never had a shortage of people tryin' to warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.

Yeah my son loves the Caps, that's obviously a good team and I kinda like them. Fuck 'em though, let's go B's.

Not looking the best lately but the 'Hawks are my favorite to win it all. The core has crazy skill and experience, 6 D-men with rings, clutch goalie, and the youngsters have played really well all season. The Ducks and Caps are scary but both have a habit of shitting the bed in the playoffs.

Here's to Blue Jackets whooping the Penguins! Take care of the Caps kryptonite for them. Please.

Marchand's hearing is today. Sure would rather lose him for these last two games than the playoffs.

I don't think he thought it was gonna turn out anything like it did but it was stupid and he does deserve punishment, and he knows it too.

Yeah I figured that would be what happened. I hadn't seen the video of Crosby's spear that wasn't even a penalty, wtf? Seemed more deliberate than Mrchand's to me. I'm a homer but still.

But no.

That taint no spear. That's a friendly nut tap. If these guys weren't hockey players and say maybe soccer players, that guy would still be lying on the ice or stretchered off. The amount of slashing and stick work that goes on in hockey is crazy but everyone plays through it. It's alot better now than 10+ years ago. That and players are even more skilled at hiding their dirt.

One of these years will be the Blues' - no reason this couldn't finally be their time. Seems like the script of scrappy team from nowhere works as well or better than the President's Trophy path...

Wild coming out of their rut finally. Two meaningless games left. Can't make too much of the outcomes. Wild / Blues matchup is intriguing. Yeo back coaching the Blues. Some irony in the making...I hope not. Stop Terensenko. The Wild killer. Just secured my Wild tickets for the playoffs. Hockey in late May would be nice this year.

Damn, heartbreaking loss for Harvard. Go-ahead goal by Minn-Duluth with 26 seconds left in the 3rd, then 3 solid bids - with the goalie pulled - including a post with 3 seconds left for Harvard. Ugh
ND-Denver up next

That was a good finish. Crossbar. So close. Rooting for the all old WCHA final.

Then the next day they'll suck again.
