Welp.

 

[silverwheels]

What a collapse. "Let's Go Rangers" chants being heard, LOL.

[silverwheels]

Unexpectedly HARD NOSED win by New York. Have to hope that Tampa is over rested. Home ice helps.

Just let Tampa lose, please, fuck.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Man, gonna be hard to root for Tampa next round.

 

[Irishman]

I just don't see #88 giving up goals. Looking forward to the games though.

 

[silverwheels]

Yeah Vas just hits another level in the playoffs, especially the further Tampa goes.

 

[silverwheels]

I think Colorado's forward depth and better overall defense win the series, but Edmonton will push them pretty hard as long as Smith doesn't shit the bed.

 

[silverwheels]

FUN

 

[Irishman]

Smith is already a BUM.

 

[silverwheels]

Kuemper hasn't looked much better so far, though. I'll take it.

Also Kulak has been a great value pick up.

 

[silverwheels]

Avs starting to take over. Oilers just have too many guys who are worse than their Colorado counterparts.

 

[silverwheels]

Ten minutes without a shot, LOL. Avs are rolling.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Send in the clowns

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Have another donut Koharski

 

[silverwheels]

How was that onside?

 

[Irishman]

That was a bad call.

 

[silverwheels]

If that explanation from the rules dude is true then okay, but what a shit rule.

 

[evil1]

Oh crap. This series is going to be awesome.

 

[silverwheels]

My adult son McLeod finally got a goal!

 

[Irishman]

Trash game.

 

[silverwheels]

I can't believe Kassian thought he was good enough to try that.

Part 2

 

[silverwheels]

Mike Smith really hates Game 1s

 

[Irishman]

This kind of game is just not fun. Fucking broken record over here.

 

[evil1]

Having an immediate answer after a goal is pretty exciting, but 9 goals before the end of the second period ...

 

[silverwheels]

Woof

 

[goblue96]

 

[silverwheels]

Ma'lady is developing a crush on McDavid.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Fuck Michigan

 

[Irishman]

What a trash game.

 

[silverwheels]

Smith is old AF and got chased. Of course you rest him Thursday. Keep him in an ice bath until then.

Or you treat him like Ol’ Yeller, take him behind the woodshed and put him out of his misery.

 

[silverwheels]

If only they had done that instead of signing him to a two-year deal at the age of 39.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

Sounds like something the Flyers would do.

 

[silverwheels]

Let this game finish 8-6.

 

[Rutgers Mike]

FUN

 

[goblue96]

SAD

 

[Irishman]

The fuck, Tampa?

 

[silverwheels]

LMAO Eastern conference, babby!

 

[silverwheels]

Kuemper out with an injury tonight.

 

[goblue96]

Smith out with Space AIDS?

 

[silverwheels]

Smith out with Space AIDS?

Unfortunately he's starting. He rebounded about as well as he could against Calgary so we'll see, I guess. Koskinen played well the other night but he's still not reliable.

 

[silverwheels]

Maybe Hulu live is just way behind satellite/cable but I had to turn off ma'ESPN app notifications because they've been spoiling games. Assholes.

 

[goblue96]

SPACE AIDS

 

[silverwheels]

Get him out. Defense sucked but those weren't impossible.

 

[goblue96]

Smith has given Duncan Keith SPACE AIDS. WTF

 

[silverwheels]

Keith already had it

 

[silverwheels]

I mean, the Avs are just better.

 

[silverwheels]

Nurse hasn't played well all season and he's hurt so not sure what value he provides. Just shut him down.

Francouz playing above expectations = good night, Oilers. gun2head

 

[Irishman]

I'm at a Tori Amos' concert tonight, but it doesn't look good from the box score and extended highlights.
