He's a real Mark Messier all right. Minus, you know, all the championships. (It was a great goal.)

Here we go again - uneven officiating 90 seconds into the Habs/Bolts game.

Hedman crumbles from a blatant crosscheck. No call.

Carle, a mild rough of a Canadian. Same level of obviousness - up goes the arm.

Greatest goaltender in history, shoe-in for the Hart gives up 4 on 18 shots in big game? In the same year that goal blocking genius hero Tupspa Rapsp doesn't even make the playoffs? ? ?

What manner of sorcery is this?

This may be the stat of the playoffs thus far: After going 0-for-23 to this point on the PP, Tampa scores on four straight PPs -- on four shots.

This was spread out during game rather than one PP after another, but still.

The Hab-a-rific goalie lost all five games against the Bolts in the regular season with a stellar 3.47 goals against.

Tampa Bay's forward depth is just insane.

Blackhawk's too. Excellent teams both. IMO Chicago is the most complete team in the league despite Crawford.

Chicago is starting to remind me of the 08 Wings. Lots of experience but not too old to win again, and when they're at the top of their game they look nearly unbeatable in a best-of-seven.

I'm so glad that Calgary pulled out a win in OT last night. that goal with 6:00 lleft in the 3rd should've counted. I'm not sure how much more evidence the War Room needed.

I'm rooting for a Tampa Chicago final. That would be fun to watch.

Rangers haven't scored enough all playoffs. Now with 5 goals in 4 games against the Caps. Not good enough...See how it plays out...

Is this the right thread to be mad at how Tyler Johnson went undrafted, and the one of the deepest teams at forward in the league got him? I dont know why it makes me so upset that the Pens didn't give him a tryout, i know how crazy it is to play "what if" and focus on a player like Johnson, but I just can't help it. Watching these other teams every night and seeing what their forwards and create in a playoff atmosphere and i get really jealous. And sad for Geno and Sid. The only forward that can make plays on our team are Horny, and even he doesn't have the best creativity/vision (he's outstanding at net front and forecheck tho) and Bennett, who is and prolly will be forever injured.

UGH

Michal Rozsival suffered one of the worst looking leg injuries last night....I am not even going to put a gif of it here. Feel for the guy, not sure he can come back from that, at his age.

Be strong

Certainly looked like he snapped his sh#t. Maybe a knee but it looks like it most likely is both the tibia and fibula IMO.

I guess the caps look like the team of destiny this year. Holtby has been unreal

Caps have been dominated but the second they get a rush they score.
