We Toronto tonight and apparently they're hoping to lose in order to get a better draft position. The Leafs have missed the playoffs 10 of the last 11 years(?)
I think. While the Devils have lost the last four years. Maybe I'll go to a movie instead.

Well, I need to amend the title to No Canadians OR BRUINS. :(

I have a feeling that Julian is toast and Marchand will be playing somewhere else next year.

That is the hockey gods getting even with you for starting a thread with that title!
They (the hockey gods) are from Canada after all.

Not only did Bruins lose when the playoff season was on the line. They lost big...

I hope we see Marchand playing in Europe next year! ;)

Yeah the B's got roughed up on that one. Oh well time for we real hockey fans to enjoy playoff hockey!

A buddy of mine thinks he'll be a Hab next year.:eek:

I can think of a few guys facing buy-outs or forced & premature retirements who'll be plying their trade/talents in Europe next year. It seems the so-called youth movement is first & foremost in the plans of the teams which failed to make the cut this year. There are a few interesting storylines in a couple of series - Hawks/Blues eg.

Still playing... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xB7YGXXNj8

Too funny. Actually, the video is pretty accurate since the Canadian teams all "went to the dogs" this year.

At least you can be proud that the big bad Bruins were not leading the race to the bottom!

The Bs had a shot at the playoffs unlike most of the Canadian teams that were statistically eliminated from the playoffs at the end of January.... Still I guess they (Boston) have a remote shot of winning the draft lottery! How is that for excitement!

I think you guys with teams still in it need to pay me not to cheer for your team....

Every team I like loses!

Cash or major credit cards accepted. No guarantees expressed or implied.

Right now I am on the Hawks bandwagon but I can be bought.

Hey Flat
Do you think maybe your man 'Ovie' might be booking some early tee times??

Momentum might well be with the Flyers, and there is of course the Presidents curse.

And how about the meltdown by the Rangers. Whew wee the king is dead?

How about Wire Transfer (my PayPal is dormant).

naa goodee...

Who will be next? I figured the Flyers would have been long gone but maybe the Ovi playoff curse will continue?

"Caps in the east - Kings in the west - Kings in 6." Prognostication has never been my strong suit. Well, at least the Caps are still alive(?).
Hawks & Blues tonight - should be a good home game for Hawks fans - especially now Kane seems to have awoken from his slumber.

I'm wondering if losing the last two has rekindled some bad memories for Ovi and the boys. I still think they'll make the 2nd round but not sure past that.

The Rags really shat the bed, 11 goals in two games!

I can't speak for any of you who may be Hawks fans on how you may have felt last evening, but it started to look more than a bit bleak for us & the boys at the end of the first period. Their comeback has become a team trademark of sorts. This obviously (& hopefully) sets the stage for one helluva game in St. Lou. on Mon. I think I'll alter my schedule for this one. Go Hawks! I just hope the Canadian network play-by-play broadcasters aren't those two semi-functional literates we seem to have foisted upon us far too often. Enjoy the game Gents.
