I'm having a really hard time caring to watch the Rangers and Caps.
Only reason for me to watch the Ducks-Flames is to hope to see the Flames get destroyed.

Kinda unhappy with the way the first round went down. So many matchups going forward i don't give two shits about.

Hawks-Wild looks like it might be the series to win the Cup really, but this year it's so hard to tell.

I think the rangers have to be the odds-on favorite, but you can't count out anyone from the west, hawks, ducks and wild could easily, easily take it.

Oh Rangers, why not just move the puck along the boards with 4 seconds left?

Ducks lit the flames up though, let's hope that this streak continues for another 11 games.

Ducks crush the Flames.

Caps surprise the low scoring Rangers.

Go Habs!

Hahaha Flames last night. ^_^
I will be disappointed if the Ducks don't sweep.

Really curious to see how the Hawks and Wild match up. Should be a war.

And the Bolts should expose Montreal's shoddy D and light Price up, but who knows.

Don't care too much for betting odds; they tend to be pretty behind on what actually makes good teams.

I don't really see any clear favorites this year. Not entirely sure Rangers will even get thru Capitals, and if they do, then they have to go thru Lightning (yes i'm guessing they will beat Montreal).
So don't think Rangers even make it to the Eastern final.

But with this year's parity, it's hard to predict.

Capitals goal scored by #42, Joellllllllll Ward. Assist to #8's wicked blade curve.

Amazing they didn't let off with 5 seconds left. Even I said to myself... ahh crap OT - when will this game end tonight...

Hey, how do you say 'I'm open' in Russian, anyway, Ward was asked. He smiled and said: "Ovi."

hah.

 

[rh71]

This wasn't even from his knees... it was from his... nothing. Brute strength.

That Ovechkin guy is kinda good, eh?

Yeah, he's good on the offensive side, but he's far from stellar in his own zone.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Come on Habs you can do better than this! I have a feeling they're done though. :/ Unless a miracle happens. It's still early though.

The Canadiens should have fired their coach last year.

Montreal has taken so many dumb penalties tonight. I wonder if that was by design, goon it up a bit to get Tampa off their game and hope the refs don't call them for it, and if they do hope that the lightning power play stays cold. Obviously neither is working out for them.

 

[cpacini]

Another pp goal, that was just too easy

 

[n7]

Haha, love watching Montreal lose.
Great to see Lightning up 2-0 going back home. :thumbsup:

Lol

 

[Rudee]

My Flames are getting scorched by the Ducks.

 

[Michael]

Lol

Not 100% sure what is funny. He is terrible.

Michael

 

[PingviN]

Holy powerplay

I know it's gotten kinda cliche at this point because you hear it everywhere, but Ovie has grown on me a little this year.

RIP Corey Crawford's new mask, 2015-2015.

I have no clue how he wasn't taken off the ice for a concussion check after that puck to the head. Guy was stumbling around like he had downed a bottle of vodka immediately after that shot.

Correct. If not sooner that that.
However, i don't really like the Canadiens, so i hope they keep him around forever

Because........I agree, play should have been stopped and he should have been evaluated. Guess the rules are different for goalies?

Holy shit, buzzer beater. Stick a fork in Montreal
