Eh, most of us are pretty consistent with what we consider a good team vs a not so good team to be.

Buffalo was junk. Tampa was not. But I don't think many would argue that 2026 Tampa is quite the same beast as 2020-2024 Tampa.

I think we gave the habs credit for beating a still good but not quite what they were bolts team.

But treating the sabres like a tough opponent ain't gonna happen i don't think.

But we're facing one of those elite teams and if we manage to pull off the upset, we probably have to face the more eliterest team after that. Nothing lucky about that.

Ya they were good enough to win with a little luck vs Tampa and Buffalo, but to beat Carolina and Colorado back to back, they're gonna need to play realgud, well beyond their capabilities.
 
The stats are hilarious because they don’t fucking matter. That’s not how they keep score. That’s not how they determine who goes on those stats of metrics performance, but they do not determine who the better team is. It’s a pretty fucking simple thing. The team with the most goals is the better team.

The better team won


Just like they did in the first round of 2021

Losers

I do not think anyone was disputing the outcome of the series. Just quality of opponent
