rxmc89 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Kings get a nice 4-1 win in Calgary. Why couldn't they play like that 2 weeks ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem is the Blue Jackets can't score right now. I'm hoping it's just post-clinch boredom and not a sign of a bigger problem. If Bobrovsky continues to play on God-mode and the offense/power play come back there is no ceiling for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Last year's playoff teams in the East: Penguins, Capitals, Rangers, Lightning, Red Wings, Panthers, Flyers, Islanders Really good chance the Atlantic Division has entirely different representatives and that 5 different teams will be in the dance this year on the East side alone. The West is a little more stable to last season's field. The Stars and Kings are out, Oilers and Flames are in, and those are the only differences. The playoff cutoff race in the West is dull as dishwater. Nashville the current WC2 has 10 more points than LA and Winnipeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMac Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Since the Flyers will be out, I think I'm rooting for Columbus and Minnesota/Edmonton for the Cup final. It would be great to see teams that have struggled in recent history would be great to see. Plus, that would stick it to NBC and the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dubnyk leading the NHL in almost all goalie categories before March? Maybe if I said this after they had a good 10 games during the season, but after 65 games, I think I can safely say that this team is a good team, but something mentally isn't clicking right now... I mean, you'd figure that I would know after watching every game this year, but I guess you're the Minnesota Wild expert Admiral...

The_Admiral Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 No, my issue is that "fragile mentality" has no empirical value. "Yeah, they've been getting their asses kicked for the past two weeks, but try to imagine a scenario in which they don't!" What's your point? It's a good-not-great team that had a lot of luck and overworked the goalie, and also, the coach is an idiot. There are better explanations than "fragile mentality." ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except, the Wild ARE a good team, they have very skilled players and a great coaching staff. Just something isn't clicking. What else should I call it? I'm not even the only person who says this. And saying that the Wild had a lot of luck is ridiculous. So for 60 games they had one of the best NHL records based on purely luck? You can win a game on luck. Maybe even two, just look at the Avalanche... But you can't go 40-14-6 in 60 games ALL on luck. That's ridiculous. What did the Hawks win 3 cups in 6 years on luck?
