Kadri and doughty showing the DoPS is actually being sensible and remotely consistent. Surprising.

Bouncy boards in Las Vegas!
Boing!!!

John Stevens’ comments re. DD’s headshot suspension were amusing.

If MAF stays healthy then the way he is playing its time to start taking vegas very seriously....like all the way seriously

It's the old triplets scoring again for Tampa. Palat set Point for the first, and one each to Johnson and Kucherov.

Interestingly, they said Kucherov (24) and Johnson (23) are the NHL's highest goal scorers in the playoffs over the last 5 years. Palat isn't that bad either with 15 playoffs goals in that same period.

 

[Mningasimisonda]

5-3 win to Tampa.

A lot of fighting at the end. Palat thought Taylor Hall stopped a bit close to Vasilevskiy and grabbed him at speed to clear him out.

 

[catters078]

Tampa bay, Winnipeg, Nashville all take strong 2-0 leads. If boston follow suit and win today the top 2 teams in each conference are in a strong position to all advance and face off against each other in rd 2

Fleury was impressive, but Quick was unbelievable. Got hammered with good shots all night (54 saves) and Vegas still took until late in the second period of overtime to get a second goal past him.

 

[Great8]

Boston 1 shot, 1 goal

 

[Great8]

Make that 3 goals from 4 Shots

 

[Great8]

Andersen gets yanked after the 3rd but Boston score their 4th not long after.
4-0 after 1

Bergeron-marchand-pastrnak flexing their muscle in these first 2 games. 20 points between them.

 

[catters078]

Pastrnak 6 points (including hatrick )

Youngest ever player to do that. Younger than when gretzky did it.

hatty goal was an absolute beaut

And normal service is resumed. 5-1 Pens. Elliott is a sieve again. Murray is a wall. Crosby continues to be the best player in hockey.

As you were.

 

[Great8]

To say today is massive for us is an understatement.

What an odd series. Three absolute stompings so far.

 

[Great8]

Once again we dominate Columbus early and jump out to a 2-0 lead only to give up a poor goal from defenders being flat footed and showing no awareness

 

[Great8]

Wild putting on a clinic, 6-2 now

 

[jdz101]

Cam Atkinson being a pain in the Caps behind.

 

[Great8]

3-1 lead into a 4-3 deficit in the blink of the eye. Only the Caps could do that

[Great8]

Ok, OT again here we go. 52 shots in regulation and couldn’t get it done, here’s hoping for a bit of luck

 

[jdz101]

Caps in the gun a bit now. This one shouldn't have really been OT either. Just a dumb penalty by the jackets spooning it over the glass.

 

[Kakkle]

Crapitals keep on crapping on.
