Matthews pretty much played a meh game. Didn't score, didn't get scored on. Not what you want out of your superstar for sure.

The Leafs should be much improved next year once we trim some useless fat: Komarov, JVR, Gardiner, Leivo.

That Bergeron line is fucking dominant

Well, that was stressful. Leafs owned that game till 2nd intermission. Matt Gryzlyk said Chara basically came into the dressing room and went ape shit and screamed in every persons face and that just got the whole room going nuts. Love to see that speech. I really do not like this seeding system. I just think what is the reward for finishing 2nd/3rd in reg season just to be eliminated first round. I am referring to the economic side of it. I mean the 2nd round is pretty epic this year with every team advancing having over 100 pts but i still dont like it. I like 1 v8 2 v 7 etc...

[hong57]

now im thinking.. which team has a better chance against pitts should caps lose to them for like 3rd straight year (fking seeding fk bettman piece of shit)?
bruins seems the tougher team for pitts..

I wanted to watch good hockey... SJ/VEG was not that.

[Shoalzie]

The Knights are a trip to watch.

Vegas succeeding this early is a little embarrassing for the league... they're my 1b and I feel a little guilty saying so, but fuck it. I've suffered for 27 years... new fans/locations have to pay their dues. I fear if the suck next year, all these new fans with unrealistic expectations will bail.

It really is an indictment on the other GMs. Imagine how easy it would have been for any team to acquire these players that teams were most willing to lose

Or it's just a fluke season with an extraordinary set of circumstances. They wouldn't be the 1st team in history to rally around the misfit mantra and put it all together for one year and then fade into the abyss.
