2025-26 Playoffs Thread

Getting caught up. But the female and Twitter/X community might meltdown if Carter Hart wins the cup. And then Leafs Nation will be on suicide watch if Marner not only wins it, but takes home the Conn Smythe. Ohhhh boy.

I'll post on the off-season thread, but allegedly Matthews is on his way out, and all these Americans might follow suit. Tkatchuk the obvious one to me, but apparently a ton of teams are inquiring about Hellebuyke.

Ive hate most star wars lol. Not even sure how many i missed now. Might see this one streaming or something since i did see half a season of that show

The whole franchise ia hit or miss, mostly miss. More of a cult type following, for me I just remember my dad taking me to Return of the Jedi as a kid which led me to go back to Episodes IIV and V and then watching the others as ai grew older.

For the Mandalorian, S1-2 were good, S3 was a bore fest. Seems like all series have one or two dud seasons.

I can't think of a single show where it was good from S1 to the end and that includes SOA which I could watch over and over again.

VGK robbed and then give up the shorty, Hart looks bad.....

Not sad

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Avs rolling over, they lose this game the series is over.

Thats the Hertl we know and hate

Avs get a 3 goal lead and blow it.
I told the coaches not to watch Kings film. Nothing good to be learned there.

Good game 3 between Canes Habs, 2-2 second intermission. Goaltending has been outstanding, pace is really good, lot of exciting plays. You know, anti Kings hockey.

Walker just went end to end, blew past folks and barreled into Dobes who tried to sell a call (it was goaltender interference for sure and was called) but Evans responded and punched Walker in the back of the head when he was down and it was evened up. But Evans responded for crashing their goalie, also anti Kings hockey.

Walker would probably be the Kings RD1.or RD2 were he still here, solid player who can skate and defend. Another Blake masterpiece to get out of the Petersen contract he dished out in the first place.

Ridiculous.

Dobes is MVP for Canadians every round.

Dobes is MVP for Canadians every round.

He's a good goalie, reminds me a lot of Quick with his attitude and big game saves, not to mention the fiery behavior.

He wasn't the reason why the Habs lost although I love that nonetheless.

 

[Kings4OT]

I always say, if your not interested in winning....put Burns on your team

 

[xis]

no cup for you, Burns

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Another year of being the OGWAC.

Damn, did not see this coming let alone a sweep. At least Robitaille can't say they lost to the Cup champs which you know well he would say.

Hoping for the Whalers to win it all

Last hope for me, needed Edmonton, Anaheim, Vegas and Montreal out.

If it came down to VGK vs Habs, i would have to pull for VGK. Still cannot have Canada get a cup.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Canes with a huge win, git er done tomorrow night and then take Vegas out.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Anyone realize former Kings HC John Stevens is back in the Cup Finals as an AC for Vegas?

Reminds me of Kompon and how somehow he ends up on Cup teams.

 

[PuckinUgly57]

Bye Canada
You're getting your ass kicked
There will be no Cup
For the 33rd straight year

Canes opening a can, 5-0. Just need Vegas out now.
