We're back and hungrier for the Cup than ever.

Dobby's gone but we got former starting goalie Halak as our new backup in his place.

Hoping this year we get a repeat of the flatlining Habs and another Leafs playoffs collapse.

Already got tix locked down for the Habs on 10/27. I ended up going to 6 games last (pre- to post-) season, hoping to hit even more this year.

That's OK, my gal has two.

I haven't been this optimistic in a Leafs' team since CuJo was on the team.

Game 1 down, Leafs victory, goals by Matthews and Tavares.

Not so thrilled that 2018 Montreal took us to overtime, but eh, a win is a win.

I mean is it really the smartest thing to do to pick a fight with a dude who's built like a human tank, threw fucking Chara over the boards and has had like four fights in his career and therefore doesn't really know how to fight properly (i.e. so that he doesn't KO the other guy in a second)

Well, at least it ended well for their team.

Marchy didn't even land the worst hit of the series.

skullstorm · « **Reply #44 on:** May 22, 2019, 06:37:39 AM »

Okay now really, since the Isles swept the Pens but got swept by the Canes, who then got swept by the Bruins, will the Bruins now get swept by the Blues? Will the sweep circle of ~~fuckery~~life be complete??

Tasty · « **Reply #45 on:** May 22, 2019, 09:25:50 AM »

No, because: the Bruins are good, Tuukka's on fire, and the universe doesn't care about "rhyming like poetry" shit like that.

The Bruins were one of 10 NHL teams with more Americans than Canadians this season; only Pittsburgh had as many — 19 US-born players, to 12 Canadians.

The Penguins were the first to win a Stanley Cup with more Americans than Canadians, in 2016.

This year, the Bruins have to go through the Blues, whose old-school roster includes a league-high 20 Canadians, with only five Americans, three Europeans, and a couple of Russians.

Should they prevail, the Causeway Street skaters could become the most American of all NHL champions.
