That's why no path is easy. You can't dismiss any team this time of year.

BTW, you're from where I grew up.

I'm not going to go pages and pages arguing with you today. But I didn't say that. I said I didn't watch all 7 games of the series, dude. Please learn how to read.

Obviously situations had to go Boston's way. They won the series, genius. One of the situations you stated was the media rumblings of Babcock being fired, which you have no idea what effect, if any, that had.

They didn't breeze through Toronto though, so acting like they had an easy path is one of the dumber things you've said in here. And that's saying a lot.

You’re the one who started this argument for a second straight day. I said there were rumblings of Babcock potentially getting fired because of how he handled Austin Matthews in the third period of a game 7. Babcock gave him three shifts against Boston, which is a bad thing. You’re making fun of my inability to read but I’ve said this clearly, maybe you should wake up.

Ftown, what does “I didn’t watch the games in its entirety” even mean? Did you catch six out of the seven games? Did you watch two out of the seven. Were you flipping back and fourth between games? Did you only see highlights? It’s like you’re giving yourself just enough reason to argue but you’re not giving any argument to make your case. Saying it went into game seven without giving any detail of what you saw, isn’t an argument.

Your buddy Claudefather is making an argument for you because I guess he watched the game but isn’t sure what argument he wants to go with.

Finally, if you don’t wanna go six pages of arguing with me or anyone else, don’t start an argument. It’s only logical adult thinking to know this.

Lol dude it was like 3 weeks ago, I watched the game, and was correct in my assumption that it was a 1 goal game going into the third. Pretty sure both those things happened in the third (Gardiner turnover on a reverse and a bad goal by Andersen)
- ClaudeFather


Claudefather....

You didn’t say which of the seven games you were even talking about. You also didn’t say “and”, you said “or”, making you sound uncertain of which play your talking about.

Claudefather...

I couldn’t possibly know what play you’re talking about, if you didn’t even name which game you’re talking about of the seven games Toronto and Boston faced off in.

At this point, I don’t even care about your opinion anymore.

What exactly do I need to offer? The series went 7 games. I've never heard of an easy 7 game series in my (frank)ing life.

For the sake of the board, PM me if you want to keep going. This is a dumb argument.

So this is the hill you’re gonna die on? It went to game seven. Maybe watched it or maybe not watched it, you haven’t said anything about the games themselves or how much you saw in your arguments.

How about this, instead of me telling you about games that happened like a month ago, why don't you tell me some 7 games series' that have been easy? Or was this the first one in NHL history?

I had nothing invested in any of these games. Didn't care who won. I watched all of game one though, and Boston lost. They "started slow" though was your reason. What about the other games they lost?

If it was clear, I wouldn’t have had to asked. Your boyfriend and I have been talking about the entire series the whole time. Plus, you only spoke of one goal heading into the third period, when it was a 2-1 game heading into the third, which you were correct on. Like, you brought up two plays that could have potentially have been one play, you were never clear and basically saying because Boston made it 3-1, they put it out of reach.

Does this sound right?

Hahahahaha

Well my original statement, while we’re correcting one another about what the other said was, I felt like Boston kinda had an easy path so far. Even if you do disagree about a game/series you did or did not watch, the Canes have showed zero life against Boston. None! Easy path straight to the Cup.

That last sentence I can agree with. Even though you were blowing Mrazek before the series started.

Well Mrazek got them to the eastern conference final, after we dumped him because he was so terrible for us. There are no easy series prior to the Canes getting to where they are now, remember?

I dunno. I think mcelhenney looked good, I probably would have stuck with him. He looked awesome in a losing cause last night.

Strictly speaking in the playoffs. I didn’t watch any of the hurricanes before the playoffs started. When Mrazek got hurt he came in and looked really good imo. I probably would have stuck with him.
