2017 NHL Playoffs

[Jason]

Strader is doing a series.

Spoiler:

[Troy McClure]

Looks like I won't be watching the Pens.

[Knives Out]

*shudder*

And it sucks that Kelly Hrudey won't get to call the Flames in the playoffs.

[B Kat]

Well, go hockey! I'm rooting for the Oil. I'd like to see Columbus do well, but they prolly won't get thru Pittsburg. And they fell apart down the stretch. Will be rooting for Jordie, of course. And our Anaheim draft pick, but only as a consolation prize. I think Washington is going to pull it off this year.

Tootoo is a shitty hockey player.

[Knives Out]

Tonight I've chosen to watch Rangers Habs and then Wild Blues.

I'm very surprised that the Habs pre-game ceremony lasted only 15 minutes instead of 30.

And LOL getting scored on by Tanner Glass.

Jordie -1.

[ScubaSteve]

Finally some good hockey to watch

Finally some good hockey to watch

It feels weird.

I covet the Habs and Rangers goaltending.
I covet it so hard.

It's weird remembering that I actually like this sport.

[Knives Out]

So Bob Probert's widow spread some of his ashes in the penalty box at the Joe.

[Knives Out]

LOL the Islanders might already be moving back to Nassau Coliseum.

[Knives Out]

Rangers win 2-0.

Jordie finishes -1.

If only Price could score goals ...

[ScubaSteve]

Edmonton's Cat Vomit Orange jerseys make me wish I was color blind.

Sucks NBCSN is showing that boring Wild game over the fun Oilers game.

Lundqvist almost came to Dallas. He wanted to play here after we drafted his brother. But we selected some other dude instead.

[Knives Out]

We also could have had Luongo for Turco straight up.

Jake Allen is having the game of his life as well.

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

Was. It really takes a total loser team to give up a playoff lead to Minnesota in the waning minutes of the game.

You don't know this story? We drafted Joel in the 3rd round, and considered drafted Henrik in one of the later rounds, but we decided we were good because we had just burned a 2nd rounder on Dan Ellis, so instead we proceeded to use our remaining five picks all on Russians, none of whom ever played a game in the NHL.

On the flip side, Tarasenko seems to be having a tough time scoring playoff goals against non-Lehtonen.

Oh I know it. Todd reminds us of it like 10 times a year.

I wonder if Hitch was the one who vetoed the original Nieuwendyk trade because he wanted to keep Todd Harvey's grit.

No way. Hitch hated Harvey.
