Teams are now 0-4 in this round in close-out games. I figured the Av's were toast after game #4, but tonight they went into Big D and won 5-3. So it's back on a plane to Denver for the Stars.
And out East, the Canes have averted crashing out of the playoffs with two straight wins.....and against all odds, the Bruins and Panthers are heading back to Boston for Game #6.
That's why we love the Cup playoffs though. Fans right the roller-coaster night after night. And you just never know.

Can never count out Mac and Mak.
Both seem to have John Wick kind of sheer will power to drag the team screaming and kicking back into the series.
Imagine if both CAR and COL force game 7, oh man...
It's one of the weaker years for contending teams. All the teams left are vulnerable and the Canucks & Oilers are undoubtedly the weakest of the bunch.

I'd throw the Bruins in there with us and the Oilers, FLA/DAL/NYR/COL all look pretty legit, although losing Nuke was a big blow to the Avs and they have the weakest goaltending out of the 4 as well.
It's amazing how the Oilers haven't been able to build just one stacked team during these McDrai years.
The Capitals and Islanders backed into the playoffs because no one actually wanted to make it.
I think the Bruins, with a healthy Marchand, are a step ahead of both the Canadian teams but below the others. Probably equivalent to Colorado now the Nichushkin is gone.
None of the teams are juggernauts. Oettinger hasn’t been that great, although much better in the playoffs, and their offense is more about a deep roster than dominating forces. As an example. Rangers, Stars, and Panthers are all very good, though.

Too bad none of men running the teams going for the last two available Eastern spots actually did anything about it. Hell, the Capitals actively sold off their players.

It really was.
Ovie very obviously did NOT put in the summer training necessary to be able to be an effective post season player and was an anchor for his line.
Agreed. Very up and down as he has been since the back half of last year.
not sure where else this would go, but man - dutchy and hedger were the sportcentre hosts growing up. too young.

No. But despite two points, Mackinnon was awful. One of the worst games I've seen him play.
Cale dragged them back to Denver.

he lifted weights and seemed healthy but that doesn’t matter when the enemy is cancer. Knew he took time off for his health and sad to see him lose that battle.
Feels like this could be Dallas' year. Just a deep team with youngsters like Johnston and Stankoven contributing. Tanev has been awesome. (With an on form Demko and Petterson, we would actually be competitve, but I don't think we're there yet.)

- she experienced sexual harrassment at the hands of a blackhawks employee, including inappropriate advances, unwanted touching, and sending explicit videos of himself on tiktok
- she reported two other incidents of other people being groped at blackhawks events by blackhawks employees
- after informing her supervisor, had her role changed and was moved away from her place of work (united center) and eventually was terminated
- says they made false representations about their commitment to decommission the logo "and other Native American initiatives” when she began working with them, which the article seems to imply was a condition of her taking on the gig
- says after she connected them with the tribe, which had previously been unwilling to meet with the team, the team made an end run around her to broker a deal that allowed them to keep the logo
