[Closed] NHL 2021-22 Season

Bye, bye Cindy…

Interesting reading about these American  and Canadian teams playing each other in the playoffs and their travel plans. To avoid Covid testing they fly close to the border, bus across and then fly again to their opponents city.

Calgary, take Dallas away.

Cool to see all the fans outside the arenas cheering & partying in ?? (during the playoff games) ?

Why do games go to overtime when you reeeeaallly need to try and get to bed at a decent hour? ?

Jake. Oettinger.

What a show. Only reason this game is still going.

Oettinger single-handedly keeping his team in the game.

Jake. Oettinger. What a show. Only reason this game is still going.

jinx. ?

Aaaaaand we cursed him.
Battle of Alberta will be fun to watch.

Round 2:

1. Battle of Alberta

2. Battle of Florida

3. Battle of two teams that can go F’ themselves.

4. Rangers and Canes.

A few days to catch up on sleep. ?

Battle of Alberta will be fun to watch.

And the best Province of Canada.

64 saves for Jake Oettinger, formerly of LVN, just unbelievable, but Dallas loses to Flames 3-2 in OT!

He was making saves that physics can't explain...

For the 1st Round...

Wanted all the high seeds to advance except Colorado... Went 5/8 (NSH, MN & TOR).

Predicted all high seeds to advance... Went 6/8 (MN & TOR).

Second Round:

Want St. Louis, Calgary, Florida and NY Rangers

Predict Colorado, Calgary, Florida and Carolina.

Only series I got wrong was rangers and if penguins don’t have a third string goalie scoring on himself or Crosby out that result prob would’ve been different. I assume Carolina/Florida/CO/CGY advances this next round, Florida series being the closest probably.

3 great series and one that I really don't care at all about (NYR vs CAR)

The EDM/CAL series will be the best for live in person rivalry and crowd enthusiasm.

NHL decided to schedule the Florida games the same time as Miami Heat games which is a big :facepalm:

By your own admission of how you cheer for NHL teams that is interesting considering the below.

NYR have K'Andre Miller. Carolina has Smith and Stepan.

I'm probably pulling for Colorado at this point, even though EJ is the 6th D.

The ASU logo will not be removed for Coyote home games and other agreements that the Coyotes must follow--

Any alcohol or beer advertisements must be approved by Arizona State.

Arizona State maintains the right to object to any advertisement that is “not in good taste or is otherwise not in compliance” with ASU’s rules.

Arizona State will receive the revenue from naming rights for the arena.

The Coyotes will not be permitted to sell any temporary advertising that is a competitor or in the same category as whomever ASU sells naming rights to.

In-ice advertising will be a revenue source for Arizona State, and the Coyotes aren’t allowed to modify the look of the ice surface – including the Arizona State logo at center ice — on broadcasts to protect ASU’s permanent advertisers in the building. It is noted that this doesn’t and shouldn’t impact opposing broadcasts filming at ASU.

Kucherov with subtlest fake ever to freeze the goalie on his assist to tie it at 1-1

Hard not to like Brunette as a coach plus he’s one of us.

Florida might be the most quiet crowd in the history of the NHL Playoffs.

Well the Panthers are going to be basically statistically eliminated now as Vas does not lost two games in a row in the playoffs.

Florida’s power play design is complete ass.

Talk about having no say in the game... LoL!!!

Vasilevski hitting his stride and the Tampa PP rounding out at the wrong time for the rest of the league. Theee-peat?

Tampa shows why they are defending champs. Brunette has work to do.

Vegas is fond of a 3-peat...

Current odds to win the Cup:

COL: +200

TB: +500

FLA: +500

CGY: +600

CAR: +600

EDM: +1200

NYR: +1300

STL: +1500

Tampa shows why they are defending champs. Brunette has work to do.

With their championship pedigree…⚡️will be a tough out. FLA has the ability to beat them, but (as of now) lacks the big game experience…however I predict 6 or 7 game series, we’ll see how it plays out.

Blues making a first period statement.

Curious question: Is Ryan O’Reilly the best forward left in the playoffs?

dude is a beast

Connor McDavid and Nathan MacKinnon are both still in the playoffs

There’s also some Kucherov guy that’s pretty good.

Bennington with the sick save to keep it even

I don't see anything about the 'yotes having to pay their rent.

The contract is pretty clear that base rent is due before the season begins

Just here in the last couple of hrs.

COL went from +200 to +190

STL went from +1500 to +1700

In response to the post showing Gophers still remaining in the playoffs  (edited to remove the long string of characters when attempting to quote a post with a tweet….)

i will not cheer for stl or col.  rangers or canes it is!

I noticed that all the series are every other day games except for the Florida series - they have a back to back Sunday/ Monday.  TV conflicts?

Binnington keeping StL in it

Not a fan of Schenn, but that was a garbage call.

Agreed. Interference, maybe; but your stick swings around, hits an opponent and that's a penalty? Okay.

There's a concert on Tuesday in Tampa.  Either they did Sunday/Wednesday or Sunday/Monday.  It's not the NBA so they chose the latter.

Super weird to see the Blues lose a game they deserved to.

I’ll let that one slide.  😉

My favorite feature of this years playoffs, is when they go to former NHL referee Don Koharski, and let him try to explain calls that were made during the game. At least once every night he spends 5 minutes explaining exactly why the challenge will go a certain way. It never does

What was the call? The swing clearly swung around and hit the player in the head...not particularly hard, but it did.
