2020 NHL playoffs

Nobody picking Boston. Huh.

Boston 6
Flyers 6

Stars 7
Canucks 7

Halak playing against his former team has lots of motivation. I dunno...hard to bet against the Bs, but the Isles were playing very well. It should be a great series.

Vegas and Vancouver should be great as well. Both are SUPER fun to watch.

Dude picking Dallas over Colorado probably ain't smart.

Just a gut feel. Their players are more experienced and they play excellent defensively. They're also way better than arizona

I’m not entirely sure if being disqualified from Round 1 allows you to enter the 2nd round. Grey area.

Also I only picked the Canucks because I can’t stand Vegas

Mark Stone for the win!

Dallas coming out strong.

this is going to be quite the series.

Maybe you're a genius!

Markstrom going head to head with Lehner, both goalies playing for their next contract. Not a great night for one of them.

And it's also hard to win when you score...(checks notes)...zero goals.

But yeah, I did not foresee Vancouver getting worked like they did. Nice to see Stone and Lehner playing big roles.

It's amazing what a player like Reaves does for a team. I watched a highlight package of him more or less chirping everyone and being a physical force. Something the Sens desperately need. I know Tkachuk can do it but his focus needs to be on scoring goals, not hitting people.

Vancouver was pretty bad. Markstrom want then at fault for most of the goals, stopping the first and second and sometimes third shots. Maybe they partied after they beat the champs. They are a much faster team than they showed last night.

Vegas is the most dominant team in the league. For the last 3 months of actual games, they’ve been starting in the offensive zone for something like 73% of their shifts. Just a perfect team.

I think they breeze to a Cup this year and that will make me independently wealthy.

Dallas is a team that is built to give them the most trouble.

Don’t let commentators or highlights sway you. Reaves line was -9 for scoring chances. That ain’t good. He’s useful, but that’s it. Gimme Brady’s package all day over Reaves role.

And poor Colorado is now without their starting goalie. Francouz takes over, whoever that is. Yeah, I like Vegas' chances.
