Yeah, now I'm concerned...

Someone really smart in the game reached out to me last night and was like, "all right, now I officially don't get it" and I agreed...Carolina has dropped three straight and Florida has won 10 of 11 against Boston, Toronto, and Carolina? With Sergei Bobrovsky...

Carolina is something like 0-11 in the ECF since they won their Cup.

Obviously, organizations and personnel change over the years, but I thought that was an interesting stat

Yeah. It’s an interesting stat, but like you said, it means nothing. Pretty wild though

I distinctly remember 4 of those Ls. :shock:

I can't help to think what the playoffs would have looked like if the Pens hadn't **** the bed in those last two games. I doubt they would be able to go on a run like the Panthers, but probably set up Boston or Toronto to breeze through to the Cup finals.

I don’t think Toronto and Boston breeze through Carolina. Two do the three losses this series came in OT and really could’ve gone either way

Carolina has played pretty evenly with Florida but is down due to unfortunate puck luck. If one of those 4 OT chances goes in the net for them (they had a few open nets) then the series looks a lot different

Hot goalie. Don't overthink it.

It's really hard to get to the Cup.

Great series between 2 evenly matched teams

Players at the Charles Schwab Pro-Am today were given personalized Stars jerseys. No truth to the rumor yet that they will start 3 shots behind once they put them on.

All this knuckledragger had to say was that his emotions got the best of him and he reacted poorly. Instead, we get this:



Nevermind the fact that he refused to speak to the media after the game. Real captain material there.

Benn been suspended 2 games. That’s a big number in the playoffs.

I don't get it. He cross checked a dude in the face with the intent to break his jaw and got two games.

This is an easy, slam dunk 10+ gamer. I don't care about the playoffs. You cannot legislate extrajudicial assaults on the ice like a fcking slewfoot.

Man, I am loving these playoffs from afar. It's nice not going to bed anxiety or adrenaline filled every night the Penguins were playing. With our move and new jobs, I basically have to be in bed at 9:30 to get up at 5. Last night, as I was getting ready for bed, I checked the Canes-Panthers score and it was only the second period.

This would have been misery if the Pens were still playing. Tossing, turning, checking my phone every night, risking the wrath of my wife. :lol:

I think I had read that previously the team with the least amount of time in a playoff spot to win a cup were the 2019 Blues. I wonder if it’s just randomness or if there’s something different about the game in the current era that makes this more likely
