Yeah, absolutely. Tampa has been wildly inconsistent all season, they have the talent to win again but it's kind of a coin toss which team shows up each night. Toronto could do it, Campbell is playing really well. Don't think they could beat a more consistent team like Colorado though.

What’s Colorado’s history of choke artists? Only last year really. First year they made second round they were the 8 seed. Second year they were down to their third string goalie in a game 7.

Lost in the 2nd round 3 years in a row when they should be legit cup contenders?

Except, like I said, they definitely weren’t contenders that first year. They were the 8 seed who beat Calgary in round one and then lost to San Jose. Last year, I agree, they should have won.

listening to the local talk radio pundits everyone was saying how fast the rangers would be and what a wall igor would be. considering the pens scored a measly 4 goals in 4 games against him that part seemed legit.

even after the OT thriller it was still doom and gloom with us having our 3rd string in net we didnt have a chance and now everyones a complete 180

i realize talk radio does a hard sell on the doom and gloom but man

Winner of Toronto-Tampa wins the East.

Wild are done. They even look spent. Totally exhausted. Outworked. Out played. Poor choices. Our power play is an abortion. We should just start declining penalties at this point.

Yeah they look done. Something like 16 shots on net through two? You said it here, the Blues have their number. Not sure it would have made a difference since they can't score but benching Fleury is a bit of a head scratcher for me.

Yea. You can discuss whether he should have been given the nod to begin with but once that decision was made they should have stuck with him. Talbot is great but he's barely played in three weeks.

Ultimately, not goalies fault. D have been awful. Power play is abysmal. Fiala hasn't performed. Awful all around in the games we lost.

Unless we play absolutely perfectly we don't win. Games 2 and 3 looked as though nobody could beaut us but true of all Minnesota sports teams - can't keep that consistency. Can't play out of our minds every game.
