    a bus carrying a junior team, the humboldt broncos was involved in a crash with a truck on their way to a playoff game.  really, really horrible
    Awful. 15 now dead.
    One of the kids killed was subscribed to a hockey channel on youtube that I follow as well. He just posted a comment on one of the videos the day before the accident, on how excited he was to see the Jets make the playoffs.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    That is a terrible event. 

    Stoked for the playoffs starting this week.  Like the Kings vs. the Knights. 
    One team (Predators) to rule them all, though.  (And win me a nice return on my bet)

    I'm just happy that the Bolts didn't wind up playing the Bullies in the first round. 

    Rangers 2.0 can definitely handle Dirty Jersey.

    Interesting that the top two seeds in East have losing records this season against their playoff opponents.
    I still like Tampa and Boston's chances but it does open the door to think about realistic chances for an upset.

    Also, I guess I get to root for the Leafs? I wonder if Babcock lets Martin play to prevent Marchand from taking too many cheap shots.

    Round 1:
    Bolts
    Ruins
    BJs
    Penguins

    Preds
    Jets
    Kings
    Ducks

    I think it is Preds and Ruins in the finals and Preds lift the cup.

    Bolts will beat the B’s. 

    But I would also relish seeing the B’s make the finals and lose—as long as it’s not to the Kings.

    Fuck Vegas.  they got a great season.  they can wait awhile for a cup

    They're a 1st round loss IMO anyway.

    Hearing they will be exempt from the next lottery draft pushed me over the edge on them

    Why are they exempt from the next lottery draft?  Don't get me wrong I'll be rooting for an early exit by Vegas but I will not be able to pull for any other team from the east in the Finals other than my Jackets.  Maybe New Jersey but no one else.

    Their expansion fee was $500 Million.  The expansion rules were created to make it easier for them to start out on the right foot.  Them not having to expose players is part of that.

    NHL Playoffs are so hard to predict. almost anyone can win the 1st round series.  If I had to choose I'll say Tampa Bay over Anaheim.

    I meant expansion draft, sorry...

    https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/nhl-gm-meetings-wrap-vegas-spared-seattle-draft/


    Vegas off the hook in possible Seattle draft

    The GMs were informed that any potential future Seattle expansion draft will be conducted under the same conditions as Vegas, and there’s an interesting caveat: The Golden Knights aren’t likely to be part of the Seattle process at all, according to a source.

    There’s no reason to expect them to be put in position to lose a player because they’re not going to be sharing in the $650-million fee the Oak View Group will be asked to pay if/when the NHL accepts its expansion application. That was part of the deal the league struck with Golden Knights owner Bill Foley when he was granted the 31st franchise.

    Thanks.  I understand your point now.

    Good game....game 1 to the Knights.
    Everyone knows Knights bow to Kings.  It'll play out that way.

    So happy about this. If my Habs aren't in this is the next best thing. I remember how happy I was when the Jets came home to Winnipeg.

    What did you think of their cheesy Medieval Times pre game show?  I wasn't sure if I was watching hockey or cirque du solei

    I thought of that Cable Guy scene.

    I made text jokes with some Kings fan buddies from SoCal about Blue Man Group silliness....and sure enough, they had the Blue Man Group there.

    It did fire the crowd up.  For the first ten minutes or so they were bonkers out of control.
