2021-2022 NHL Playoffs


T&C

Recommended Posts

Just put Tampa in the Finals already. Sweeping the Panthers and holding them to 3 goals the entire series is very impressive. Last night the Panthers had the better of the play but the brick wall Vasilevskiy stopped everything they threw at him. There is no doubt he is the best goalie in hockey. These past three years of play he has earned his spot in the HOF. If the Lightning win it again then they will be considered a modern day dynasty.

I know we still have a long way to go but a Lightning vs Avs Finals would be a fun series to watch. Unless an upset happens I think that will be your SC Finals.

That is my guess as well.


Im guessing a Tampa vs Carolina and Colorado vs Edmonton conference finals.

 

Edmonton vs Colorado could be a very interesting series, if Edmonton gets by Calgary. The way both teams play such an attacking offensive style could make for some really exciting games. I also think Edmonton has a better shot at besting Colorado than Calgary does.

 

But I’d still pick Colorado and Tampa as the two most likely Stanley cup finalists.

 Yeah, Vasilevskiy has really turned it up a gear starting with that game 6 against Toronto.


He’s just been a brick wall since then. The entire Tampa bay team has really seemed to flip a switch since that game 6 where they faced elimination. They were kind of up and down before that.

 

 

Boy, I bet Toronto is kicking themselves right now after watching that Florida series. Had they been able to close out Tampa I really feel like they would have been the best team left in the East. Their chances at making the ECF would’ve been pretty good (IMO).

Tampa will make it to the finals, but could lose to ANY of the 4 teams in the west still alive.


If I had to guess, I'd say it will be Colorado vs. Tampa in the finals, with Colorado winning the Cup.

This Oilers/Flames game is a freaking riot... gotta be close to the record of most goals scored in the smallest time frame. Edit: the fastest 4 goals in playoff history.

 

Wish the Rangers had won earlier but they are still hanging on by a thread.

I am SUPER Pumped for this!  This has probably been the #1 Sports Documentary left that I've been waiting to see for quite some time now.  I always had faith they would do one at some point...that rivalry was just too intense not to have one.  Some of the best and most intense hockey I've ever watched especially when they met in the playoffs.

This one is cooked... Tampa @ Rangers on Wednesday night. Better this way really, no way were the Canes going to stand a chance with what they now have for goalies. Go Rangers....................

F the Rags. At least in this series they won't have a goaltending advantage. Vasilevskiy may actually be better than Shesterkin. Go Bolts.

I think Vasi is better but to reiterate... I just don't want Tampa to win the cup, I live here and really don't want to hear champa bay ever again lol. So bring it Rangers.

Wow! I didn’t see that coming. The rangers won game one 6-2.

 

I’ll be interested to see how Tampa responds.

 

Weren't the Leafs up on them 3-2 in the 1st round before the Bolts came back and won in 7. I would expect a bounce back game. Usually when Vasilevskiy has a bad game he responds with a strong one. I sure hope so. F the Rags.

I hope they respond with another loss tomorrow night.

Hope the Rangers win this series... then I don't care what happens. I only have one dog in the race and that's Tampa not winning the cup.

As an Isles fan obviously I want the Rags out but I will be rooting for the WC to win the Cup no matter what the matchup is.

Edmonton would be rolling to a cup if they had a decent goaltender.

The Rangers are in the upper limits of where I hoped the Sabres would be in two years, but Levi went back to school.
