I'll never say never but it seems the only way back will be if Makar suits up tomorrow night and makar/nuke combine for 6 points. (Which they've done plenty of times, even 8 points) but I highly doubt Colorado risks injuring makar before the playoffs.

Fun series. Congratulations.

3 finals losses in a row :?

I was watching parts of a few games last night but always kept an eye on Bruins-Habs boxscore since I knew Swayman was playing. When I saw Montreal score a third goal, I immediately checked the matchup to see if it put Toronto ahead. These matchups can come down to a single game or one extra goal that can flip it.

A very close and competitive final all the way through. I was already planning to watch Avs-Predators...gotta keep an eye on what Nichushkin does. The Avs definitely have motivation tonight to win since they can win the division. I think you'd rather play the Kraken in the first round than the Wild.

Man, what a wild ride. Fell asleep, kid woke me up at 2 in the morning so I was able to check in on Kempe's heroics. Not over yet, anything is possible. Either way, its been a whirlwind of a finals, great matchup all around Matthew.

Congrats

Kept the championship in the East and showed it’s possible to win with 24M paid to two players.
