OK OK OK. Now I hear chatter that @edmontonoilers.bsky.social are contemplating having Soup as a backup goalie in game 4. Crazy to think his first game back in the NHL after months could be in round 2. 😳

VAN pull out the win in Edmonton last night 4-3 to take a 2-1 series lead. Lindholm and Boeser lead the way with a pair of goals each. Lindholms first was originally credited to Boeser giving him a natural hatty, some hats were tossed in the process.

Here’s a Pro Tip for both Vancouver and Boston: don’t take penalties.
You’re welcome.

Was not expecting the Bruins to go down 3-1 in the series. When a team plays tentatively vs FLA they’ll get eaten alive. The Bs took it to them when aggressive but eased up as the game wore on.
Also the drop pass speed entry on a PP isn’t working.

Back to New York!
It’s a real pain in the ass to come up against a really good goaltender in hockey. One who can steal a series on their own. The Canes have been up against it for 4 games. Broke through tonight. This could easily be a tied series.

If Carolina loses this game it will be a shame. They’ve outplayed NYR for the most part. Definitely 95% of the 3rd.
Kuznetsov tried the Michigan too. In the Stanley Cup playoffs. 😂

CAR up by a pair in the first vs NYR. The way these playoffs have gone no 2 goal lead seems safe though.
Great news too. Trouba hasn’t tried to elbow anyone to the head. Yet!
Keep the pressure on boys and get this to game 5.

Back and forth battle in the late game last night saw the Canucks trade goals with the Oilers. Regulation couldn’t solve it so off to OT they went until five minutes in Mr. Game Time Decision makes a pass to Evan Bouchard for the winner. Series tied 1-1

McDavid with a high stick to Hughes goes uncalled. Of course, can’t send the golden boy to the box. Shades of Gretz and Dougie back in 93. But I’m not still holding a grudge for that high stick. It’s been like 30 years. I’ve let it go. Honest…. 😡

After a lacklustre first 45 minutes, the Bruins have come alive. 1:30 left, down two but buzzing around the FLA net.
Empty net, extra attacker, FLA wins a defensive zone faceoff, clears the zone and scores the empty netter. Onto game 4.

Boston is looking very un-Boston like lately. Swayman doesn’t seem to have the same swagger, puck control is shaky, and they’re really tentative on the PK.
They’ve doubled their shot output though with a minute left in the 2nd.
Down 3-0 now.

Boston is playing like they’re facing the leafs. 17 minutes in and only 3 or 4 shots. Don’t win many games with stats like that.
Down 1-0 up to now

Dallas holds off the Avs in game two with a score of 5-3. It seems like no lead is safe when you’re vs the Aves. Stormed back game 1, almost come back last night making it 4-3 before Dallas gets an empty net goal.

That didn’t take long. 😂
NYR take a stranglehold on the series with an early overtime winner by the bread man. Rangers up 3-0 in the series.

Carolina ties it up late in game 3. Game 2 went to double OT, with the NYR eventually taking the W. Does it go more than 20 minutes tonight?
Game saving poke check by the Carolina goalie with a couple minutes left and the score tied. Nerves of steel!

Front runners for the now vacant coaching role in Toronto are:
Craig Berube
Joel Quenneville
Bruce Boudreau
Not a fan of a coach who helps cover up sexual assault, but I like the other two.

And there it is…
After 5 years, the #torontomapleafs have fired head coach Sheldon Keefe. His next stop I’m sure will be Pittsburgh, reuniting with Kyle Dubas.
What’s the next move? Marner traded?

So is today the day that major changes start in Toronto Maple Leaf land. We have the executive media day tomorrow so I’m guessing if Keefe is out, it happens today.

WOW, VAN rally’s back to win it in the 3rd last night over the Oilers. Based on how that game started I really didn’t give them much of a chance. Good on them.

Bit of a street fight in FLA tonight. Talk about being conflicted. The Marchand took out Tkachuk with a great check but I hate both of them. The 3rd was crazy with penalties.

Back to back OT games last night. Almost an extra game played in the end.

Bold prediction: both Marner and Keefe end up on the Pittsburgh Penguins next year, and in Camp Dubas.

Game 1 and the FLA Panthers got spanked by the Bruins. This isn’t going to be the series we thought it would be. Boston dominated after FLA went up 1-0.
FLA is still dirty as f#<k though.
