If my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle.
Stanley Cup is probably the most grueling tournament in professional sports.

Also, I’m over the Stanley cup officiating. They gotta fix it. The last three games of the series both teams were committing blatant penalties but sooo few were called. I understand letting them play but the officials took it to a whole new level this year. Maroon should have been tossed as well for his temper tantrum. Whatever, Go Bolts

Yes Fiala is a very, very good player and attacker. He will make that part of the Kings game instantly better; he's great on the power play also. Decent contract extension as well. He was great for Minnesota, but imo they just did not want to pay him what he's worth.

You might be right, however, some key Avs players were also dealing with injuries as well. Kadri still managed to have a huge impact on the series, but before he hurt his hand, he was having an absolutely stellar post-season so I can only imagine if he was 100 percent.
The officiating in the whole series was awful. I think my favorite was when Maroon, at least I think it was him, took Mack down to the ice after one play and the officials ignored it. On one hand, you could say that both teams were benefitting from the non-calls all series, but there were plenty of obvious calls that just didn't get made.
It was still a fun series to watch though and probably the best Stanley Cup we've had in some time. Tampa probably has an all-time great team right now and the Avs are finally coming into their own after they had multiple second round playoff exits despite obviously having the talent. I wouldn't be surprised to be see a rematch between these two teams in the next couple of years.

It’s still to early for me to dive all in to Hockey. I will say the bolts defense looks really suspect so far. Maybe we’ll trade for Roquan

Hopefully they get some of these guys back soon. They’re actually doing pretty well considering.

I just want Ovie to stay healthy and to get the goal record. Maybe 3 more seasons

Caps have had rough go of it with injuries but Ovie has held up strong.
Good article here…..
Alex Ovechkin wants to break Wayne Gretzky’s goals record the right way. Not as a ‘third-line guy playing 8-10 minutes a game.’
Alex Ovechkin signed a five-year contract extension in the summer of 2021, but according to Capitals' owner Ted Leonsis, there were conditions…

Meanwhile my Kings, who are mid AF this season, pulled a Ravens defense and allowed SIX GOALS IN THE 3RD.

It goes against my very being, but with Orlov and Hathaway in Boston I’m on the Bruins train.

A couple of times, you heard me saying that this past NFL season feels like a remix to the 2021 season. I guess that applies to our NHL season as well. Like 2021, we finished 3rd in the West playing the 2nd seed Oilers in the first. Won game 1 only to lose game 2.
