I do enjoy a US v Canada final.

Stanley Cup Bracket 2018
 

Tonight's game seven in the Leafs vs Bruins matchup should be a must watch for any hockey fan. Both teams are round 3 contenders at least, but one is going to the golf course.
Go Leafs Go !!

Bos-toon Broons should prevail. Trawna doesn't really have that much of an answer to Bergeron's face-off dominance.
If Anderson doesn't stand on his head again - stick a fork into 'em.
I've never been a Leafs fan so I'll be cheering for them 'not to lose'.
The only time I've ever liked the Broons was in the days of Orr - back then when the earth's crust was still cooling & dirt was invented!
Hoping for a decent game 7.

Since my team (Hawks) are long gone, I'm going with tonites winner -Leafs-
for awhile at least then I siding with Pittsburg, until the final then EVERYONE
where I live go with Turk and the Vegas Knights.

And when ol' Pie Face was playing there?

Hopefully, in a few hours I'll be sending you some links to better dentists.

Bergeron scored the game 7 tying goal AND O.T. winning goal against the leafs the last time they met in a G7 playoff.
(Clicking my black and gold shoes)
"there's no place like round 2
there's no place like round 2
there's no place like round 2..."

In the meantime, I'm waiting for the meeting with Kadri.
Also, I hope the officiating doesn't SCREW UP the outcome.

Good news/bad news at the end of 20 minutes.
Good news: Bergeron scored a goal. When the B's #1 line scored in the first 4 games they won.
Bad news: Rask let in a soft goal and its a close game.

If this game doesn't get you excited you don't have a pulse.

Sacre bleu Joe what a first period. That back hand from Bergeron at that angle was a thing o beauty. That first goal was a stinker. It looked like Rask over committed to his left and couldn't recover for the long side.

You got any fingernails left Joe?!!

As much as it pains me to say this, the Leafs are going to take game 7.
Rask is continuing his track record of not winning the clutch games.
Anderson is hot.

If you ain't got a goalie you ain't got a prayer. :(

For us who don't have a dog in the fight this is a very entertaining game. But yes to your point Tuka Urass does not look good and Anderson has gotten hot. BUT!!! The Leafs already has started going into a shell. Ya got 20 more minutes Joe.

Will Rask be back? 4 out of 16 is not so good.

I see Buck that your king's english isn't so swell either... ;)

God I miss Tim Thomas.

Fear the 'stache was it?

Touche'!!

Boy that would take huge balls to yank him. Nope he's in.

Now who's leaky. Doesn't matter how bad Urass is if he doesn't have to face any shots he's batting 100%.
5-4 Brunes

That was a strong finish!

I am pleasantly surprised. Fortunately they don't ask "how pretty? just "how many"

The bottom line was that game was owned by the Leafs and theirs to lose. They gave it away in the third.

Some interesting stats:
Rask was drafted by the Leafs but they dumped him. He will have to play substantially better to get anywhere with the Bolts.
The Bruins #1 line scored points in every game they won this series. They games they lost that line had ZERO pts all three games.
Debrusk may become the new "Mr Game 7"?

Looking forward, the Bolts have better defense and more scorers but, the Bruins took 3 out of 4 regular season games this year. The only one they lost was at the very end of season when they were totally out of gas.

GWN7: There are many fine dentists listed in Google. ;)

Although the script isn't exactly the way I wanted, my bracket is perfect going into the second round. This could be the beginning of...

Bruins World Domination

Lets see if Ovi has anything for Cindy/Sidney, or whatever her name is, this year.
