    Round 1 rest of the east

    Hoping that the Battle of Florida will be a meatgrinder. I don't expect much from the Isles or Caps, however.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Although I don't put much stock into it, the Bruins did go 4-0-0 against the Leafs in the regular season. Two early season wins that needed extra time: a 3-2 shootout win on November 2nd, and a 4-3 overtime win a month later (which involved surrendering a 5v6 goal). Then a pair of 4-1 regulation...

    Panthers with the ENG. Battle of Florida and the next chapter of Leafs-Bruins incoming. Matthews stuck on 69 goals. Nice?

    2023-24 NHL Game Thread

    You really can't complain if you're hanging your playoff hopes on a team with -26 goal differential winning in regulation. Red Wings lost to the Caps last week, and given that Pens choked away a playoff spot to the Cats last year,, it's rather fitting that the Bruins essentially eliminated them...

    The Caps and their negative goal differential seem like a cupcake first round for the Rags, but stranger things have happened.

    4/16- Finale vs. Ottawa

    Tampa's the worse defensive team. But the way the B's are going at the moment I don't think it will matter much. Hopefully this is just the "phone it in" effort tonight.

    They seem to be skating well, but need to start making smarter/better possession plays.

    Ullmark with some big stops. Also fuck off Brady

    4/16- Finale vs. Ottawa

    In absolute agreement that this has been an exceptional "bridge" year for this team. They lost a Hall of Fame caliber possession wizard two-way center (and it does show at times) but the kids and role players have stepped up and the goalies have earned their hugs. They've got a tough assignment...

    Choose the opponent?

    I went with Tampa. Yes, the regular season record seems to suggest that the Bruins fare much better against the Leafs (4-0-0 vs TOR, as opposed to 1-1-2 against TBL). But the regular season is weird, both in terms of teams meeting each other at weird times (uneven rest, injuries, slumps, etc.)...
