That was always my understanding as well, but if it hadn't been for COVID, the Penguins were comfortably qualifying for the playoffs that year, so in this case I don't really think it would've been in the same spirit, saying their playoff streak was snapped because of some once-in-a-century nonsense.

Sport Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 I was hoping the Isles would lose so the Pens would have something to play for tonight against the Blue Jackets. Our last two games are against Pittsburgh and Buffalo and it'd be such a CBJ move to win both of them and drop from 32nd to out of the bottom 3. On the other hand, the worst people alive missing the playoffs for the first time since forever is very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glover Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 None of the Pittsburgh sports teams made the playoffs in the last year. This pleases me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Just now, maz said: Remind me again where your personal vendetta against Pittsburgh came from? Seriously, who hurt you? My personal vendetta comes from having met a large sample size of Penguins fans and witnessed boorish behavior inside of Nationwide Arena that I've not seen out of any of the other visiting fanbases. If it makes you feel better the meaningless win last night elevated us out of the 32nd spot so the Penguins got one over on us. Again.

habsfan1 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 With 5th last now a lock, it would be incredible, if Montreal pulls a New Jersey with a little lottery luck. It's been a long time the Canadiens have had a player of his caliber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unocal Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 So instead of one last Penguin run or the up and coming Sabres, we get........... the offensively challenged Islanders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiK Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Man, ESPN's hockey coverage is just awful - I'm desperate for a 'commentary free' broadcast option. Just gimme the sounds of the arena and ice!

habsfan1 Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Leafs very briefly gave fans hope, when making it 3-2 to overcome the 3 goal deficit. Instead, they totally collapsed. Tampa wins 7-3 with an onslaught of goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
