Interesting that the last two expansion teams Vegas and Seattle could meet in the conference finals and both with Head Coaches that were axed from their previous teams one of which Flyers are a mess and Bruins who choked badly. Hmmm..

I really liked the 1996 Panthers team. That was the grittiest team you could imagine. Mike Hough, Bill Lindsay, Dave Lowry, Brian Skrudland, Jody Hull, Tom Fitzgerald, Terry Carkner, Ed Jovanovski... even their top guys were super gritty like Scott Mellanby, Rob Niedermayer or Stu Barnes. Add in a hot goalie playing possessed, like Vanbiesbrouck was, and it was amazing to watch. Zero skill, to be honest. But grit, and pure heart. Too bad they lost. It sucked. I always hated Sakic and Forsberg. And that ass-wipe Adam Foote. Maybe now it's time for the Panthers.

I can't believe I forgot Claude Lemieux.
Damn I hated the Avs in the 90's.

I sat through 5 periods just to watch Sakic score and Colorado celebrate on Chicago ice in those playoffs.

Salkic is the guy that didn’t end up in the HoF?

My favourite part was Ken Holland believing Stuart skinner was good enough to win a Cup with.

Can pick up the Latinx viewers with cock fighting at the intermissions. I'd personally go with the LBTGQ+ segment and have gay porn at the intermission. Also known as cock fighting

The playoffs from here on in, regardless of who wins between Dallas and Seattle, will be a case of who?
...and who cares?
Nobody will be watching

Nobody will be watching Well…who, outside of the markets playoff teams were playing in, in the USA, has been watching so far? It’s a niche sport down there, and thats not going to change. The numbers are the numbers.

You’d have to think big changes in both EDM and TOR are coming. KD should be sitting pretty with all that cap to take in some dead weight for future draft capital. I’d have no problems taking a 2026 first from TOR because the likelihood is that they could be awful by then since the core will be old and busted up by then.
