Pekka Rinne (.976) and Jake Allen (.956) lead all goalies in the playoffs in save percentage, so I'm guessing we are going to see a lot of 2-1 games in this one.

Anyhow, good luck to both teams.

Seriously though this should be a good one. I say the winner goes to the final.

I got Nashville in 6.

The analytics crowd are experiencing Subbanfreude about Nashville being in the second round and the Habs being eliminated.

To be fair, I didn't really think the Blackhawks challenged Rinne all that much. Wasn't like he was standing on his head or anything. He didn't have to.

Not to say he isn't capable of standing on his head and playing lights out, but don't let the inflated save percentage in the first round fool you into thinking he was phenomenal.

I was worried the hockey gods were going to have Habs vs. Preds in the finals to have PK score the winner in the decisive game.

So is what I am experiencing called Tortsenfreude or Joeyfreude?

I had a similar fear but with Johansen against the Jackets.

GOOD THING OUR TEAMS BLEW IT, HUH?

Why does Kenny Albert always look like there is someone behind the camera pointing a gun at him?

A bomb from PK on the PP gives the Preds a 1-0 lead.

You're assuming that there isn't?

Well, that could be a valid explanation.



Oh man. Kevin Fiala just got ridden into the boards and his legs went in opposite directions. You can hear a pin drop in the arena.

Stretcher on it's way out. Looks really, really bad.

Vlad Tarasenko helps Arvidsson get the stretcher get there faster. Both benches look really worried.

Delay while they bring a backup ambulance. Of course we all agree its the safe & right thing to do but why is there only one at an event with 16000+ people at? We used to have two at the games for HS football?

On a happier note there is a very impressive cleavage behind coach Laviolette
