Ok, well I didn’t think TB would be able to score 2 goals in less than a minute so maybe that call didn’t decide the game.

 

Also, ESPN+ has an elevated view called Ice Cast and it’s awesome.

espn + is the best thing to happen to hockey in a long time.  its a god send to those of us who live out of market.

I know Nick Paul is talented but to me he is also the one NHL guy whose every motion resembles a beer league hockey player.

Holy crap, Pat Maroon dumps the puck over the glass with under 2 minutes to go in a 3-3 game.

Tampa with all kinds of pressure in the OT, then a turnover at the line, a lucky bounce of a blocked shot, one  great pass, a shot and it's over. Avs take #1.

Total dominance by the Avs. 

[lordstanley]

7-0. 
 

This could be a sweep.

The Avs steamrolled through the first three rounds and are clearly the best of the West. I never thought THAT highly of the Rangers, only that a 2-0 series lead gave them a fighting chance to upset Tampa. 

[lordstanley]

Big effort by Cirelli to tie it 1-1. Bolts needed that. 

[lordstanley]

Champs are fighting. Up 3-1. Last stand, or new series?

[lordstanley]

6-2 Tampa. Bolts in 6, lol. 

[buddha]

bolts not dead yet

 

[lordstanley]

This could have been a great commercial but how do you put in Brodeur but not Lemieux or Yzerman. fine, omit Lemieux if you feel Crosby already covers Pittsburgh, but I demand my our4 Cups be represented 
 

 

 

[lordstanley]

The ABC broadcast is so much better than the Canadian broadcast. 

[lordstanley]

Tampa picking up where they left off. 17-4 in shots but unlike Game 3 Kuemper is keeping it close. 1-0 after 1. 

[lordstanley]

Stating the obvious, this  is a pivotal overtime.

Tampa seemed to have the upper hand as regulation ended - but did they leave themselves gassed?

Av's with all the chances, can't put it away. Looking for a quick breakaway and win by Tampa.

[lordstanley]

Avs dominated and finally score in an odd ending. If the Bolts had stolen that I’d swear they’d have used up nine lives already.

LOL - pretty poor officiating on the goal. The puck was stuck there in the net, don't know why everyone but the referee saw it there.

[RandyMarsh]

Avs win in OT. Everybody thought the goalie had it at first but the puck ended up being in the top of net inside the goal. Colorado now leads the series 3-1 and can close it out at home.

It's funny a couple minutes earlier on the puck that hit the crossbar for the Avs I thought to myself watching live "That looked like it hit the top of the net and came out, oh well the ref is right there he would've seen if it did or not" then two minutes later this happened.
