It’s going to be controversial, but I have bolts for the cup. They got embarrassed last year, not many left to compete.

Who’s your bet?

controversial? No.

Now if you would have said Leafs, that may have started some controversy.

Ok. Struggling to recall the name.

The one I’m Victoria was called Overtime. The one in Vancouver was Double Overtime.

Ok, I’ll say it, a fully healthy and rested Leafs team is going to tear the eastern conference a new one. They are going to score so many goals.

The Vancouver one was a cocaine supermarket.

Nils Höglander is loaned to his Swedish team for the first two months of the season. Will report to the #Canucks at training camp in November, or whenever it may be.

Hopefully he's just able to come over and stick. I wonder if those two months will help JB gauge if he can make the team/make more roster moves?

But how many will they give up?

Season stats were 237 GF 222 GA. That’s the highest goals against of any playoff bound team in the entire NHL.

Leafs will get past CLB but after that it's tough.

yup. very talented team but as the playoffs roll on (and this would have been more pronounced during a non-pandemic playoffs) they will struggle as the games become tighter.

tighter, more physical play that is characteristic of playoffs will be that team's undoing.

I have no idea what’s going to happen. Teams and players who can adjust quickly will benefit but who the hell knows until they play.

I think there will be a surprise cup winner this year if they actually pull this thingy off.

I always hope for a 1st round exit for them. It being humiliating is an added bonus.

Agreed. It seems the suitable outcome for a bizarre year.

That was one of my favourite hockey moments ever.

Does anybody else listen to 31 Thoughts Podcast and think Jeff Marek is one of the biggest douchbags in the history of earth??

Each week he suggests some of the most fawking stupid ideas i've ever witnessed - last weeks winner was suggesting the Kraken have GREEN ICE.....

just let that sink in for a minute...

I'm guessing a Flyers vs Canucks final with the Flyers winning it all

222 goals against is just more than 3 per game, so I hear what you’re saying, but it won’t matter, they’re going to win games 8-4. A healthy Andersen will win the Conn Smyth.

Go Leafs Go!

I wonder if Brad Marchand will lick anyone these playoffs, and what the penalty for that would be?

i like it. 2 riots for the price of 1.

the penalty would be on humanity as it would probably create a new tik tok challenge.

My boat doesn't have a radio, as in a music radio, 100K dollars for a boat and there's no frickin radio...can you believe that

I don't even want to get into how much money I've spent on my stereo in my boat. But it sure buys me a lot of one day friends all summer long.
