The Official 2017-18 NHL thread

The final stats looked a lot better than the score for the Bolts, but they need to get a bit more from their stars. Boston can very easily win the next 2 and put TB in the dreaded 3-1 hole, a hole that could be hard to dig out from.

Meanwhile how do you explain the success that Karlsson has had in Vegas? He was a 25 point a year player in Columbus, for 2 years, and he goes to Vegas and all of a sudden he is a 78 point player and a playoff monster. What happened? Is Gallant’s coach-up good for tripling his point production? Is it the water in Vegas? Hearing Elvis sing “Viva Las Vegas” every night? How did this kid go from dud to monster so quickly????

...but never forget.....what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas....lol. Would curious to see how this new star Karlsson would perform in Montréal.....lol.

All 4 series are tied 1-1. No one team has looked dominant. Is it really anyone’s Cup this year more than ever? Are not all 8 teams “field horses”, as we will see in the Kentucky Derby Saturday?

 

[gaby]

Vegas leads 2-1.

What an onslaught tonight by the Jets, they go down 3-0 and then outscore the Preds 7-1. Winnipeg looks scary to me. Young, big, strong and good!

 

[gaby]

That's hockey....at his best. We can't ask for more.

Caps 4-3 on a terrific goal by OVI in the last minute sur une passe magique de Backstrom....WOW.

Jets....what a spectacular comeback with 4 goals in the second period.....Subban...what a bad penalty with 4 min. to play and Jets scored the winning one......same for Rinne......l'indiscipline a coûté cher aux Preds et ils pourraient s'en rappeler longtemps.

2 match malade hier!! Et dans les 2 cas très content des victoire des Caps (Ovi needs a cup!!) et de notre seule équipe Canadienne qui évolue dans un gosthtown, hats off to them!

Cheers,

Espérons 2 autres games enlevantes tonight......Stamkos-Kucherov come on guys plz........a must win for the Sharks,,,,it's now or......

 

[gaby]

IMHO...Tom Wilson should be suspended for at least 3 games for illegal check on Aston-Reese.....broken jaw and concussion.......that would also compenser for what he did to Dumoulin......enough is enough.

 

[gaby]

Confirmé....Wilson suspendu for 3 games......bien mérité.....un gros trou dans l'alignement des Caps.

 

[gaby]

Perfect evening FOR ME......Big big win for the Lightning.....ont plus de profondeur a l'attaque.......Big big win also for my Sharks...a must....and they played very well.

 

[EagerBeaver]

Vegas isn’t going to lose at home because Elvis wants to keep singing.

 

[gaby]

It's starts now with Pens-Caps.....go Caps go......later Preds--Jets....go Preds go.......enjoy.

2-2 in all four series

They will all go to six games at least!

 

[EagerBeaver]

I would like to see all 4 series go 7 games, with crucial high pressure game 7s!

 

[EagerBeaver]

This is called playing until you hear the whistle:

[gaby]

2-2 in all four series

They will all go to six games at least!

TBay leads 2-1.......hope it will be 3-1 tonight.

 

[gaby]

Pens won 3-1...good game ...what a stupid penalty in the two last minutes with too many players on the ice for the Caps..........Preds 2-1....Jets were flat....Subban i goal BUT again a bad penalty in the last 2 minutes and Jets scored....Rinne his best game.

 

[EagerBeaver]

Laine’s Goal was meaningless.......who cares about meaningless penalties and meaningless goals. Preds won the game, Subban PP slapshot cannot be stopped.
