    Game 1 - The Payback

    Are you in a time warp, talking about Cassidy? Knock him all you want, but to say this about Montgomery, in particular, seems like quite a misread. I mean, the guy pretty much exudes some strong Ted Lasso energy all the time.

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    Indeed, but that situation is even more to my point: there is never a situation where you want your team with six skaters on the ice, even when it is not also an indication of your collective heads being firmly up your collective asses.

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    I'd like to see fewer situations where the Bruins decide to let six skaters out on the ice at the same time.

    Game 1 - The Payback

    While foolish, it is totally unsurprising that media people are all picking Florida: 1. They all picked Boston last year and got burned. 2. They don't care about this year's regular season games. 3. To Florida's credit, they did just demolish a Tampa Bay team that probably isn't terrible, even...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Not that it really works this way, but maybe Leaf fans can take some solace in watching game 1 vs. Florida -- it sort of suggests that the Leafs played a pretty damn good series defensively and ran into a very hot goalie. I mean, all along I had a suspicion that Toronto was playing out of...

    Did some of the guys miss the flight? Forbert?

    Game 1 - The Payback

    I'd like to see Ullmark for the reasons stated above and elsewhere: Give Swayman the rest, since he's not going to get many other chances at rest. It keeps Ullmark sharp, and to win the Stanley Cup, not just a few games, you'll likely need him at some point, not as a luxury. Ullmark has been...

    Round 2 rest of the east

    Already a pretty exciting game 1 with NYR and CAR

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    I also think there is an understandable tendency to forget how repeatedly, inexplicably lucky Florida had to be for all the stars to align for them to win the series last year. If that series were to be replayed 100 times starting from the Bruins being up 3-1 I don't think Florida wins it more...

    Game 7 - We Win

    Adding a fourth panel with Maple Leafs Square would be sweet!

    Game 7 - We Win

    How do they feel about Samsonov staying home on that puck? He had the best chance at breaking up the play. All he needs to do is commit to it once the bounce comes his direction.

    Game 7 - We Win

    The Brandenburg Concertos do tend to leave a nice afterglow.
