Huge sigh of relief, what a win

That was beautiful

Wish there was an option to love a post tbh

WHAT IN TARNATION IS GOING ON WITH DALLAS

Screw this I'm going back to sleep

Umm... what?

Whew glad that I actually stayed awake.

When I read this I was confused ...

Then I remembered you guys were down 3-0 lol

Islanders fans understand

I'm currently aroused by the Stars game.

Well that was unexpected.

So next Dallas challenges Colorado. Oh boy.

The performance against Calgary wasn't exactly bad, but it wasn't really good either. Calgary just was much, much weaker than I initially thought.

We really need to step up our game to do this. But I'm hopeful. If COL underestimates us, then we might have a chance.

you dont have a point. one play was a solid clean BIG HIT. EVERYONE gets juiced up a little when something like that happens. The other was a cross check to someones jaw that literally broke it and wasnt called a penalty.

My brackets dead lol

I wasn't even talking about that. It was just a joke that had to do with the comment you made earlier about the McAvoy hit on Staal ... it wasn't even as much a joke about your comment as it was about the debate that started lol.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Did it go to a commercial break for anyone else during the handshakes?

Wow, the Canucks have looked way better than the Blues so far tonight.

Blues getting absolutely manhandled there.

well...

??

My picks for round 2:

vs.
NY Islanders in 6

vs.
Boston in 7

vs.
Vegas in 6

vs.
Dallas in 7

Isles in 7. Gonna come down to a play or a call. Super close series.
Tampa in 6. 5 if Kuch actually rocks up.
Vegas in 6 though I wanna see the Canucks win.
Colorado in 5.

My predictions:

Flyers 4-3 Islanders
Lightning 4-2 Bruins
Golden Knights 4-1 Canucks
Avalance 3-4 Stars

Bit of a homer maybe but still happy that my both fav teams from each conference are still competing

Well, I guess I'm not the only person picking Dallas.
