Here's hoping. The good New York team isn't in, so you'll have to do.
- Woderwick

Just wanted to stop by to say I hate your team.

I hate your fans.

I hate you, I don’t even know you and I hate your guts. I hope all the bad things in life happen to you and only you.
- SimpleJack

I hope you find yourself living in Buffalo.

Couldnt live without this tidbit

For as exciting and unexpected as the first round has been this has to be the best overall series of the first round for a neutral hockey fan no?

I'll still take it
- Upstate_isles

Other than game 2 they have been great defensively and the better team overall.
- Santo_44

I don't dispute that. I meant . . . if they were capable of this, I wish they'd done it more frequently throughout the season.

Wtf

You read correctly.

Evil Islanders...BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Healy thinks it was interference. shocking. Kypreos looks ready to cry.

I suppose Marchand was onside also.
- Aetherial

It probably was, and I don’t care. Kinda makes the goal even better

They waited for the playoffs to reveal their true selves. Throw the Broons off guard. Just. As. Planned. hahaha hahahaha HAHAHAHA

Neutral fans don't watch the Leafs or Bruins for objectivity.

By all objective measures, it's interference.

Could Rask have made the save without the bump? Unlikely. He bought on the Muzzin shot. But he was clearly interfered with.

We've been on the wrong side of numerous interference calls, so it was bound to go our way.

maybe not as evil as Boston and Philly, but still...BOOOOOOOOOO!

This makes up for the Matthews no goal on the Avs. Now for the other 20 times...

It was. It was also offside. Evens out.

I've enjoyed the Flames Avs series as well.

I kept waiting for Phaneuf to play defense in that same way.

. . .true story: I was the captain of a "fun" softball team for years. We were formed in a bar, and we played on the field like we hadn't left the bar. We were terrible. Over the span of 3 years, we lost something like 36 straight games. But every year I still held out hope that this would be THE year that my teammates would just play capably, and we'd surprise someone in the tournament.

Hope springs eternal. It never did happen.

doesn't change the fact that he was outside the crease when interfered with!

36 straight loses? That’s Ottawa Senators levels of bad.
