Preds vs. Sens, LET'S DO IT.

Edit: And let Caps beat out the Pens only to be steamrolled by Karlsson & Co.

The Bruins and Rangers should be ashamed. Also, gently caress Eugene Melnyk.

Will the Sens finally sell out their home games now or does that require reaching the Stanley Cup finals?

Don Cherry just favourably compared Erik Karlsson to Bobby Orr.



That may be the single nicest thing he's ever said about a foreign-born hockey player.

I thought that if the Sens were to succeed it'd be by by stalling them to death. I was half right.

when's the last time one skater was as directly responsible for his team's success as Karlsson is? Bure on those putrid Panthers teams? I definitely can't think of any other slightly good teams who were that dependent on one non-goalie

It's okay they'll get destroyed by the Caps or Pens. It's good and funny that EK playing on a broken foot dragged the Sens past the Rags.

Oilers-Sens SCF would probably get Bettman in deep poo poo so we should all be hoping for that outcome.

e: Sens winning would be even better because Bettman cant use McDavid as a distraction either :unsmigghh:

Rangers have no one to blame but themselves for losing this series. This is the first time in years where I think the Rangers shot themselves in the foot one too many times and lost a series instead of just finally running into a better team. Congrats to the Sens. Would have been interesting to see how badly Karlson would have ripped the Rangers apart if he wasn't playing on one foot.

If the east was 1-8 Ottawa would have played Columbus, and if Bob had that kind of performance it wouldn't matter what team Columbus played. Then they would have played the Rangers.whoops reseeding. anyway maybe they could have murdered Ovechkin or something

It's because collectively they're bad and also boring, with all due respect to Erik Karlsson who is a god on ice and the opposite of those things

I picked them to make the ECF over the Rags in the NHL bracket challenge but I didnt put any money on it because lol like that could actually happen.

The sens are not good. Neither are the rangers, canadiens, bruins, etc.

Erik Karlsson, however, is very good. Anderson is sometimes good
