It's sad to watch McDavid waste his prime years in Edmonton. This organization keeps surrounding him with the same crappy players year-after-year and guess what? They still don't get it! They are not going to get anywhere with these guys!

Chiarelli didn't help matters by letting go, trading, not signing some of their previous acquisitions.

Hindsight is 20/20 but I bet if the original core of players in Eberle, Ryan N Hopkins, Hall, etc, were still there, things would be much better.

Chiarelli was a disaster and was kept on too long.

Almost as bad as Milbury. Not quite there. The Isles thank you him for Barzal...

Montreal/Toronto V Winnipeg

Boston V Isles

Carolina V Tampa Bay

Colorado V Las Vegas

Me:

Toronto closes out the Habs tonight, Winnipeg beats them in 6.

Boston sweeps the Isles, not even close. My Game 6 tickets go to waste.

Tampa beats Carolina in 6. Close series.

Colorado beats Vegas in 6.

As good as a prediction as any I suppose but I hope you're both right and wrong on the Leaf's/Montreal/Jets one.

Right: Toronto beats Montreal tonight. Wrong: Jets take Leaf's in 6.

Looking forward to the Mtl-Tor game 7. Habs showed character by not folding after Toronto's third period goals.

That had to be one of the most boring playoff games I have ever watched.
Neither team, imo, played like they wanted it and despite which team advances, if they play like that in the next round they will be finished.

I've honestly seen far more regular season games played much better, with more intensity, than what I witnessed last night.

Same with Carey Price in Montreal
