Running Stanley Cup Playoff Thread

Yea, I know. The other factor is big gaps in between rounds, with all teams sitting around idly. It's been what, five days since we've had any hockey now.

 

Seems Dean Lombardi has a little buyers remorse Dustin Penner.

The Canucks are hoping this becomes a special teams series. Despite what Smash will tell you, the Canucks want the game to be called tight since they have the best PP, PK combo in the league.

I'm sure Luongo will let in a bad goal or 4 and that will be the focus although he will make some ridiculous saves, similar to Thomas but IMO the Canucks are deeper than the Bruins and should win this series. You never know especially with how tight the Bruins play and they have that big horse in Chara who can always be the equalizer.

 

Vancouver's advantage grows when there is a lot of special teams, but I think they are better 5-on-5 too.

 

Somebody forgot to tell Alex Burrows, "We don't bite."

 

I would do the same if someone put their finger in my mouth.

 

Bruins have had the edge in play so far. Outstanding penalty kills.

 

We are watching 2 different games

 

Canucks look so much faster, especially in the neutral zone. Thomas is playing like a beast so far.

 

I'd rather lose in overtime than like that.
