    That was one fantastic game from top to bottom. Rooting for the Panthers because of the presence of Brad Marchand. The Bruins former captain. Big Bruins fans here with question.

     Marchand was traded to the Panthers this year, the players that left the Panthers, are they able to get a ring if the Panthers win the Cup?

    I think rings are largely team ownership's call.

    Honestly not sure they would want them.

    There's a variety of factors involved, including how many games they played for the team. 

    I think they care more about getting their name on the cup over a ring, which isn't guaranteed even for people who were on the team the whole season. Case in point:

    actually, he’s just one of many reasons to root against that group.

    The trio of Bennett / Marchand / Tkachuk might be the most hated one in recent history. If this was 80s playoff hockey you would have someone like Wendel Clark or Bob Probert quietly go up to the panthers and whisper: "if Bennett pulls any of that accidental on purpose elbow to the goalies head bs, we're taking out one of your superstars" lol Pretty sure it was Wendel Clark that said to the canucks in 94ish that if they went after Gilmour again, Bure was a goner.

    Fun game last night!

    I'm rooting for Marchand to raise the cup again, therefore rooting for FL, but man... every time Bennett scores I'm like

    Can't believe they allowed that first Fla goal. "Tripped" into falling on the goalie - total bullshit. Go Canada!

    Oilers scoring first in 9 straight playoff games is pretty darn impressive.  That's the way to play hockey.

    Not playoff related: Is there a Shoresy thread? I trust everyone here has watched... if not, fix that ASAP.  

    Easily my favorite show of the last few years.

    You have to be fucking kidding Bure could more than adequately handle himself!

    Check out this clip from the 2nd round in 94 before the Canucks faced the Leafs. Shane Churla (One of the toughest goons in the NHL at the time) learned the hard way getting knocked out cold at the hands of Bure.

    The Leafs were our bitch in 94 lucky to have won one game against the Canucks!

    Florida sure seems to run into goalies a lot and seem to get away with it.  I hate this Florida team.   McDavid and Draisaitl are so damn good together. what a combo.  Last goal was great.

    hot take: I still don’t love russians playing in the NHL. denounce putin; you can stay. otherwise, go back to the KHL until trump’s BFF ends the war.

    I disagree.  Russians make the game better.  If you are ardently pro-Putin, then GTFO.  

    Russians over here can't denounce Putin.  He will go after their families.  I don't blame them for lying low.  But you don't need to be a cheerleader.
