Rite of Spring 2018-“What happens in the playoffs stays in the playoffs”

[Crabcake]

I love Doc Emerick, but I’d take Forslund-Olczyk-Micheletti any day if it means not having to listen to Pierre McGuire. 

 

Also that was a bologna penalty on Seth Jones and I’m not afraid to admit it. 

[Dilbert]

Can not stand Pierre McGuire. He is the Joe Buck of hockey.

[Crabcake]

Chandler Stephenson with an absolute beauty of a shorthanded goal. 

[Brass]

David Pastrnak opts for a goddamned toe drag which gets deflected because this isn't roller hockey instead of taking advantage of his clear shooting lane to the net.

 

I wish Peter Chiarelli was still around to deal you to Chicago for Ben Eager and a handful of magic beans.

 

EDIT: Told you this series was going 7 games...

[ozzyman314]

This series should have been over in five. 

 

But Bruns are choking so hard. Toronto legitimately has no business winning this. 

[Crabcake]

Heart in mouth time now. 

[Brass]

I'm also pretty sure that the Bruins are just about .500 or under at home in game 7 situations. They are Bruce Boudreau: The Team.

[IceCap]

Game seven! Go Leafs go!

Those were some thrilling minutes before the empty netter. Hopefully the tempo of game 7 matches it (and the refs of games 1-6 stay at home).

please god leafs I already have to suffer through more of the penguins save me from having to deal with the f-cking bruins too

[Morgan33]

That was fantastic but I'm not getting my hopes up for the upset.  I still say Boston will the cup but hope to Christ I'm wrong

Just slightly under .500 at home in game seven still puts them ahead of Bruce Boudreau  

 

Should be a hell of a game.

You guys better ordain David Pastrnak for his contributions to the Maple Leafs victory tonight. Just don't give him anything breakable as a keepsake because he'll drop it and then accidentally step on all the pieces.

[Kramerica Industries]

As a Tampa fan, I approve of the Leafs and Bruins wearing each other out in a 7-game series.

 

Now make this even better and win on Wednesday, Leafs.

In other playoff news, congrats Pens on another bye to the Conference Finals. 

 

Make that a 3rd Straight Cup Finals if Leafs fraud out yet another win in Boston. 

[Dilbert]

"I am looking forward to another delightful round of Capitals-Penguins."

GG Jackets. Great series, you guys showed a lot of tenacity and are a really exciting, young team which are not necessarily adjectives I thought I’d use to describe a Torts-led team. If you’d played anyone else I would’ve rooted for you lot. Hope you do well in the future.

Sure thing, buddy.

The Washington Capitals advance to the East Semi-Finals and will take on the Pittsburgh Penguins.

 

Congratulations to the Pittsburgh Penguins for making it to Conference Finals. 

[AstroCree]

Penguins vs Capitals again for the umpteenth time. The most uninteresting "rivalry" ever.
