Carolina, NYI and Boston is about as easy as it gets (compare that with Columbus, Pittsburgh and Tampa last year). How long have you been following hockey? Cause your posts are getting more nonsensical. There is no such thing as easy in the stanley cup playoffs. Obviously Carolina and Boston are both damn good hockey teams. (Can't believe I have to defend a Boston franchise) Teams don't accidentally make it this far. Wait, are you Michal Kempney?? That is the only way what you are saying makes any sense even though it would still be loud wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 I think the NHL NEEDS Boston in the finals. Carolina vs either SJ or STL is a giant snoozer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You realize they barely made the playoffs this year? And you realize they hadn't made the playoffs since 2009? If anyone is displaying hockey ignorance, its you my friend.

Warhead36 Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Didn't Carolina have like the second or third most points in the league since January 1st? Could be like Pittsburgh in 2016 situation where they were just ridiculously hot in the second half of the year and rode it to a Cup. I don't expect Carolina to get past Boston though.

Carolina not having made the playoffs in 10 years doesn't mean anything other than some high draft picks. Aside from Carolina playing great the last 3 1/2 months of the season (third most point in the NHL), if they barely made the playoffs they also barely missed winning the division. The team that barely made the playoffs was only 5 points behind the first place Caps. To put it another way, Carolina had two less regular season wins than the Caps. Anyway, you can keep complaining. You can also keep being wrong about the quality of the teams in the playoffs and how tough it is to win a cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskin4ever Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 That was a bad missed call. Pretty obvious it was a hand pass. But in the 2nd period, Perron cleared the puck over the glass from his own zone. The officials got together and didn’t call what should have been an automatic penalty. Perron scores about a minute later, when he should have been in the box. The missed call in OT will get all the attention, but there may not have been OT had they not blown a call in the 2nd.

Fergasun Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 That type of call is one the commishioner needs to be available to make. It was an obvious handpass. He was even given an assist.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except one blown call is a penalty and the other is a goal to win a game in overtime. These are not on the same level of missed calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a poor job by the officials on missing what should have been easy and obvious calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the next NHL All Star game, one of the skills competitions should be have some of the skaters dress as a goalie and have the goalies dress as skaters and then do a shootout.

Redskin4ever Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I just got back from the game because if playoff hockey is in my neighborhood, I want to go. Carolina was just outplayed all night by Boston. Just complete domination from start to finish. My friend who is a big Hurricanes fan said he sort of wished it had been the Caps playing the Bruins because they wouldn’t let Boston push them around. Obviously I wish that were the case too, but from a hockey stand point he is right. They also called about 8 hand passes during the game. Including one late that wiped away a Boston empty netter. Clearly the NHL told both the refs to be on the lookout for that call. I did run into Doc Emrick at the game. I literally almost ran into him before the game as I was heading to the concession stand and he was heading back to the booth to get ready to start the broadcast. He is so small. But you know who is not small? Mike Millbury. And that guy was eating between every period. We were just one section over from the makeshift booth they had. I swear every time I looked up there he was eating something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskins_SF Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 For the past 2 seasons, the team scheduled to play the defending Stanley Cup Champion at the start of the regular season on the night of the banner raising ceremony, has at least made it to the Stanley Cup Finals, such as Washington last year visiting Pittsburgh and Boston this year visiting Washington. If Boston wins it all this year, then it might be tempting to place a wager in Las Vegas next trip on whoever their opponent is during the banner raising ceremony next season to win it all.
