    Crosby has won everything he needs to - Cups, Olympics, world championship, Jr championship, Hart, etc. He'll finish his career in Pitt and then likely move to management, and maybe even get part ownership of the Pens (if Lemieux is feeling generous)

    Choose the opponent?

    I said Tampa, but I don't care too much either way. To get to the conference final the B's may have to beat both anyway (Florida has some say in that). It will likely come down to Vasilevskiy vs Swaymark - may the best man/tandem win.

    Even more bewildering - the Oilers finish their season playing 3 games in 4 days, with back-to-back games Wed-Thu. The playoffs start on Saturday. Will McDavid rest or chase 100 assists and the Hart? I would think the Oilers wouldn't start until Sunday.

    Philly dumpster fire! Habs up 6-0 in the 2nd period.

    lol - After Cooper there’s Torts, Maurice, Roy, and Brind’Amour. You won’t be watching until the finals.

    Of the 5 teams vying for the 2 remaining spots (I’m not giving NJD or BUF a chance), here are the reasons I don’t want those teams to get in. NYI – 2021 playoffs. The B’s lost to the 84 pt Islanders in 6 games (reaffirming the mantra – “Just get in and anything can happen”) PIT – they lost the...

    Now that the Bruins have surpassed the Habs' hallowed single season points record, the NHL should be all for a new point scoring system.

    I think Carolina was quietly content taking a loss to the Bruins last night. It somewhat secures them 2nd place in the Metro - meaning they would almost certainly play one of PHI, NYI, PIT, WAS in the first round. Assuming the Rangers finish 1st, they have the same opponents in the mix but with...

    Interesting that Brazeau played 49 games in Providence this year. He scored 18 goals, but none on the powerplay.

    Bruins Acquire Andrew Peeke

    I mean what's not to like when the sum of a player's career point total and career plus/minus total is (-18)

    I'm OK with Sweeney standing pat this year due to cap and asset constraints, but a sneaky move I'd be OK with would be finding a way to land Tyler Toffoli
