I hate the Leafs but they could have easily won the series. They played the 2-time Cup champs to almost a dead heat. Thank God they lost, because I feel if they had got the monkey off their back tonight they could have gone on to win the Cup.

but they failed, cause theyre the leafs.

i thought the lightning were done.  and then they lose palat.  and they STILL BEAT THE LEAFS.

will the leafs clean house?

Not expecting much from the Kings tonight.  It’s been a great run for a young team.

Shanahan will stay, so will Dubas. Keefe out as coach? Possibly. But I don’t think they will do much. Losing to Tampa not as bad as losing to Montreal or Columbus or even Boston again.

Very quietly had a really strong season.

But I would love to see a Battle of Alberta. It would be the first one since 1991.

He's a popular pick on talk radio, anyways.

Say this about the Leafs, they do care. When was the last time Lions fans brawled with each other, we're just numb to the world.

Maybe they can get another overrated big time free agent to sign so their fans get pissed at each other next spring.

 

And there’s always a rigged draft lottery.

You don’t normally see a 1-0 asswhipping but that’s what’s going on now in Edmonton

Edmonton absolutely dominating but still a one-goal game. I could totally see AA tying it for the Kings against the run of play. 
 

Update: that’s 2!

[lordstanley]

Mike Smith with a Game 7 shutout. Who the hell saw that coming?!

[lordstanley]

Heat off Kenny for now. For a week or two anyways. 

[lordstanley]

McDavid with 4G 10A in series. Six multi point games out of 7.

They played like an entirely different team in front of him tonight.   This series would’ve been over 3 games ago had the Oilers showed that kind of defense earlier.    Too much for the Kings to overcome especially down a top 6 forward in Arvidsson and of course Drew Doughty.

I guess I need to root for Edmonton or Calgary because I really want a team from Canada to win it all.   

 

If the Panthers win it's  "Stanley Who?"

If the Stars win it's  "I wonder what this means for the Cowboys"

If Carolina wins it'll be  "that's a cool drinking fountain"

if Tampa wins again they'll still not go to Rays games.  

 

[lordstanley]

Crosby cleared to play tonight after the concussion scare, and the Pens have just taken a Game 7 lead 3-2 over the Rangers on a short handed breakaway late in the 2nd. The Rangers have had nine lives in this series, so they aren’t dead yet.

Colorado is a buzzsaw.   If anyone can beat them and win it all, they won’t have to answer anything else.

See. Zibanejad ties it up with 5:45 to go.

Laser with great placement so I can’t say bad goal but you’d hope Jarry would’ve made a big save in that situation.  

[Hongbit]

Game 7 Overtime!  

Nice

[lordstanley]

Rangers win it on the powerplay. 

[buddha]

whoo hoo!!!!!

[sagnam]

So happy to see the Pens out.  Another of the must go teams.

[lordstanley]

So now seamlessly into Flames-Stars. Dallas 1-0 after 1. Stars’ goalie Jake Oettinger has had a hell of a series. 

[lordstanley]

Backbreaker. Flames dominating, they fight like hell to get one by Oettinger, and Markstrom lets in the very next shot.

cal-gary is so much better than dallas.
