Hey, Boston? I get the call sucked, but you're down 3-0. And it's to Florida. I can assure you, the refs aren't screwing you over to make sure the @#$%ing Panthers make the conference final over an original six team, so stop throwing shit on the ice.

It is 2 minutes into the 3rd period and the Bruins have 8 shots. How is that a real stat?

Nice they won't break the Leafs record of fewest shots in a playoff game

If Carolina can actually pull a comeback off, I'll drop $200 for a throwback Gordie Howe Hartford jersey and run down my street blasting Brass Bonanza from my phone.

The Rangers are on a nine game winning streak, 17-3 in last 20 games, 22-5 in last 27, 40-0-1 when scoring 4 goals and the only undefeated team in the playoffs so far at 7-0. Scariest team in the NHL for a reason! Last time they started 7-0 was in 1994, the last time they won the Stanley Cup. Pinching myself, between the Rangers & the Knicks it is actually a good time to be a NY sports fan?? Knicks are hobbled and the Rangers might be heading into a skid, so for me, No |

Stars are halfway there. They have to be the favorite against whoever comes out of the other West series with shaky defense and goaltending.

Didn’t take their foot off the gas and Stanky got his first playoff goal. No complaints!
Marchand is on concussion protocol and is expected to be out for Games 4&5. This Boston/Florida series has turned into a warzone.

Valid argument, sure, but this series has been VERY lopsided with how the officiating has been treating the two teams. |

Yeah this f***ing series is rigged. Refs must really want to spend more days in Florida this postseason.

Yeah this f***ing series is rigged. Refs must really want to spend more days in Florida this postseason. I do hate that they tend to do that with the better power play teams. You go against Colorado or Vancouver and they get a few PPs in a row and inevitably score, and then they try and even it up later in the game with some late penalties to make it look more even. But it's very different getting numerous power plays in a tied game, then getting a couple when you're down. It's blatantly the refs putting their thumb on the scale. |

I can assure you, the refs aren't screwing you over to make sure the @#$%ing Panthers make the conference final over an original six team, so stop throwing shit on the ice. Original 6 fans are always gonna be there. One could argue after the failure in Arizona that this is about making sure Gary's Sunbelt teams keep getting high profile games. I'm as big a Bruins homer as you'll find but I can readily admit Florida is better and should have won this series. (Picked Boston but that was a homer choice) That said, the officiating has been tilted to an asinine degree. 21-10 power play advantage this series, with Florida getting *12* in the last 2 games. Then there's the tying goal last night that gets called back 99 out of 100 times, and the Bennett sucker punch that both the on ice and DOPS officials missed. How exactly are fans not supposed to feel like the fix is in? |

Cross-checking a player while their back is turned to you isn't egregious at all? Sure, Paul.

There's a part of me that keeps waiting for Vancouver to turn into a pumpkin, but it's not happening yet...

Boston got screwed on that non-interference call. That shit was clear as day.

There's a part of me that keeps waiting for Vancouver to turn into a pumpkin, but it's not happening yet... The only thing that can slow down the Canucks is the goaltending and that right side of Tyler Myers and Ian Cole. Yuck! But their lines are very balanced, their power play is godlike, and they can skate. Quinn Hughes reminds me of Paul Coffey. Controls the game offensively. I know the league really wants a Vancouver/Colorado WCF because every game will be video game hockey and end like 8-6. |
