Around The League: Playoffs 2026

They’ve played a fun brand in both these games, now they’re up 4-0, what’re they supposed to do?

This is exactly how they played, once they got a sizable lead in both 6-1 wipe out games vs Make Beliefs

Watching Fla, I’m reminded of how TBay simply shutdown the Habs in rhe Cup finals in 2021
Yep, good teams expose fraudulent teams as frauds. Tampa did it to us, and Florida did it to the Leafs.
 
Yeah, I was waiting for some goalie to step up, well into the playoffs. Looks like Bob's the one to do so and has found his game. When a goalie is playing like that, you don't get the situation where you play well and then get the life sucked out of you with poor goaltending.

Jones, Ekblad, Kulikov, Forsling, Mikkola, Schmidt are all big, mobile & offensively talented - Mailloux can produce some offense & possesses a mean streak w avg mobility, Xhekaj isn't very talented

Redenbacher is coming, he’ll be in the Slavin mold which is perfectly fine, but HuGo need to turn one of Struble, Xhekaj, Mailloux, Engstrom into an Ekblad or find one in the open market
Zito is the luckiest MOFO in hockey

Half his roster is made up from waiver eligible players and players who didnt pan out elswhere

Smart GM but horseshoes up his ass
 
You are if you weren't good enough to qualify for the playoffs in a normal season. That entire Cup run needs to have an asterisk put next to it. It was bogus and unsustainable, as we found out soon enough afterward.
Think of it this way, you had 3some with hoodrats from Oshawa. Never happened again. Does it mean you need an asterisk next to it because you never had one in a real city?

Who says that it never happened again? That was merely the first time and place. And unlike the Habs, even that first time I didn't fail like they did.
