So Hrudy said they had to play Binner even though he was playing like poop because of loyalty, but they should have pulled him after 2 goals. That's a rough scenario. Allen played way better, hotter hand gets the start.

They'll trade Reilly for an overrated forward on a retained salary to fit him in.

I don't buy that – play the better player. If you want to give him his chance, give it to him after your team makes it out of the round.

I think the Avs are going to beat the Stars in 5 or 6. Assuming we don't Leafs this game up, I think Vegas is a huge favourite against us. I'm hoping for another big upset.

Did anyone take the bet on the Nucks this round when the odds were all over the Blues?

Allan lost game 5, made sense to go back.

Not because of him, though. He also won the two before, after Binnington lost two.

Just saying, the goalie lost, the other guy has a history in big games. I can see why a couch would go there. Clearly it was the wrong decision for them, but it is what it is.

Props to Green for rewarding him. Glad to see him stick with that line despite putting the insurance line back together.

I think Green is a big champion of him, he just demands more of Jake that he can't always piece together.
