The Los Angeles Kings for potentially blowing a 2-0 series lead against a team they haveost 3 straight years to as they now trail 3-2

Or

The Toronto Maple Leafs for reasons we shouldn't talk about that may make BBB go postal

I'd say the Leafs, but they've been in this position so many times before that it probably feels quite comfortable by now

Conversely, the team with the LEAST amount of pressure has to be the NJ Devils

However, the Senators’ confidence likely got a shot in the arm given that Toronto is not exactly a lock when it comes to putting teams away. After Tuesday’s loss, its current core now boasts a less-than-sterling 1-13 record in elimination games since the start of the 2018 playoffs.

Leafs -> Jets -> Stars -> Oilers

All for the same reasons. Way too talented of teams that have very little to show for.

Big Head Hockey has never been more on point :D


Figured it was not good, but that is remarkably bad. Not just him though, losses are on the team and a number of guys have been there for most/all of them. Man, that's rough though. Chance to make it 2-13 tomorrow.

Overall, it has to be Toronto. Huge market, memeable levels of trouble for years, massive contracts that aren't delivering so something has to change if they don't pull it off. Honestly, even if they do they have to face roster change.

Second is Winnipeg, IMO. Absolutely blitzed the league all season and struggling against a wild card.

Not feeling that the Kings are under as much pressure when they are playing their nemesis and have to compete against McJesus and the whole of the NHL marketing budget. I'd like to see them pull it off, but don't think it's dead end if they don't. Plus the division 2v3 format should mean hockey that is closer to coin flips.
