Vegas vs Kraken or Dallas, TBD tomorrow. Kraken in their second year, one of the 5 teams still in the playoffs. Vegas in the final 4 and in their very first season made it to the Stanley Cup final vs Caps in 2018. That is why I say the league rules on players expansion teams can take from other teams is a bit too generous.

ESPN must be using Oilers announcers - “we got another goal!”

Well so far looks like the Canes are going to have a really long break. I would be worried that it might be too long but the Panthas break will be long as well only one day shorter.

These teams are scoring machines and defense has left the building

Bennett has been called an “enforcer” by some but that’s being too generous, he isn’t paying back for anything he just targets players to try to take them out of the game or interrupt a play with dirty hits etc.

One thing the Canes will have to be ready for is the Panthers dirty play- targeting, head hits, stick grabs near the end of the game when the refs won’t call it, etc. They make the Islanders look like boy scouts. Panthers coach Paul Maurice brought this “style” to Florida with him from his time with the Jets. Names to watch - hit man Sam Bennett, and Matthew Tkatchuk. https://www.mapleleafsinsider.com/Sheldon-Keefe-takes-a-shot-at-the-Panthers-over-high-volume-of-dirty-hits-in-this-Round-2-series-233963 Canes have to be aware while sticking to their game. Here are just a couple of Bennetts dirt, he had lots more.

We go with Freddie. Playoff stats:

And the TNT guy keeps saying and the official blew the whistle. BS how does he know that, he’s not at the game, no whistle to be heard on video. Total speculation and no whistle to be heard.

Worst officiating I’ve seen in a while on that goal/ no goal. Never heard a whistle on all the replays they showed. Official behind the net looked from way up top and not under the body/skate. Maybe a goal maybe not but definitely a shitty job of officiating.

Latest Moneypuck odds - for what it’s worth. At least some aren’t underestimating the Canes now.

Then: Canes predicted to lose 1st round Now: Where erbody else at

All I expected with the injuries was to win a round and be happy with that. But this team, the whole team, rose to the occasion and they want the Cup. And I’m a believer that they will win it!

with the tip in by Quicky!

Done!!!! Whooooi!!!!

saw that

win a faceoff please!!

Aho just saved the game

TNT all 4 predict Canes win - my fuggin jaw dropped

We just couldn’t get a bounce out of all those shots. Take it in OT boys!

Bonus hockey woooo

2 good saves by freddie crowd getting loud

That’s it, and the TNT boys have doubts too don’t want to go down with the ship so hedging their comments haha
