Andersen would have beaten the Bruins in 5… he absolutely owns them. 15-3 lifetime against them with a .937. It’s common knowledge that he is Boston’s daddy.

As for this next series, it’s Raanta’s net until he loses. I suspect we won’t have a game until Wednesday (maybe Tuesday at the earliest). Raanta will be ready to go by then.

I’m guessing Tuesday. But dunno those with tickets already probably know more.

Tuesday would make sense. Guess it just depends on who they want to put up there first. With all the series’s basically ending at the same time, someone is going to get an extra day of rest.

Word from my account manager it’s Tuesday but the NHL may delay one day and start Wednesday. 

Ya I figure someone starts on Tuesday. Probably the Florida teams and Colorado/St. Louis since they will have had the most rest collectively.

If I had to guess… Colorado/St. Louis and Florida/Tampa starts Tuesday while Carolina/New York or Pittsburgh and Edmonton/Calgary or Dallas starts on Wednesday.

Pittsburgh and New York both are in the top three in raw viewership (along with Boston) so they won’t mind giving us the the first Sunday game. Especially since that first Sunday game will either be in Pittsburgh or New York. We’ll have the home games on Wednesday and Friday.

Both of these teams are a four or five games series against the Canes in my opinion.

Five games sounds about right. Shesterkin is good for one game where he steals one and Pittsburgh is good for benefiting from the officiating for one game. Six games would be the absolute max. Neither one of these teams can take us to seven. Neither also has the ability to take Aho out of the series like Boston did.

At the end of the day, Bergeron is still a 4x Selke winner and did a good job on Aho. Both the Rangers and Penguins should be concerned that Carolina won the series while not getting their very best from their 1C.

I still feel that 1C may have been concussed after game 6. He made terrible decisions and I have never seen Aho play that bad. It wasn’t just Bergeron.

    • So we are all supposed to bow now? Or can we wait until after the season?  The fear is not that he would prove me wrong, it is that the people in charge are fooled again and accept subpar results as enough progress to make a new commitment. And of course, we get the same start to next year as this year and the previous two years.  I am not afraid to be wrong. I have consistently said let’s let these games play out.    I am just unwilling to accept one or two nice games a year or three or four and the rest working around him like we have to do, as proof of success.  IOW I am afraid you are wrong to crown him, the FO will be wrong, etc… And screw you too calling people miserable old fugs. 
    • Maybe it depends on how the logo is tweaked.   Kinda looks college-ish    (yes, this is official NFL merch)
    • Okay, whatever. Some people can't resist taking a crap in another man's cleats. Even after the guy set the new franchise record for passing yards in a game, won that game and won it against our division rivals. Yeah, he's still a frog, warts and all. A lot of you are tired of kissing him. A lot of you just keep seeing the frog and want it gone, for your own good reasons. Truth is, though, the franchise is going to keep kissing this frog in hopes of finding a prince through the rest of this season, no matter what happens. We've got Andy Dalton on the bench, just keeping it from flying up in the air and basically no one on the active roster behind him. We have the veritable murderer's row of opponents coming up, including half of the game vs division opponents, including two versus the division leading Bucs. There's really not an easy game ahead of us unless New Orleans decides to pack it in early and just phone in a contractual obligated effort. The only way, the EFFING ONLY WAY, Bryce comes out of this turning into the prince is if he wins four or more of these games and somehow gets the team into the playoffs. And you can read it here, there are a lot of people here who are actually afraid of that because they could be proven wrong about him, that we could be saddled with a QB they don't like because of it.  They'd fuging rather lose games and shorten the season to see Bryce fail, even if it means their team fails. Man, that's fuged up.  Root for the team or go the fug on. If that means you've got to pull for the little guy in the fight, then you  do. Hell, the odds are certainly stacked against him. But it sure would be nice if we hit a patch of magic after years of futility. But you guys would crap on that, too. Miserable old fugs.
