NHL.

Like you have said on some occations they haven`t won since 1967, but Tavares ie. looks the part more and more. Make no mistake about it: Tampa seem to have the best team overall. Their players are so fast and their interplay immensly slick-like when it clicks. QPR should have watched their matches...

[Fraggy]

Tavares is really good and Matthews will step up a level once play offs start. But would swap The Leafs #91 for Tampa's #91

[Shania]

I agree, Stamkas is solid. .And I would have swapped O`Reilly for Cucherov .... But not Tarsasenko, he is a one man team..

[Fraggy]

Wow, Tampa swept, Penguins crushed, the only game going to form seems to be Bruins v Leafs. Even St.Louie gave The Jets a bit of a scare in 1st 2 games.

[Shania]

Who would have thought that The Blues would go this far? Dallas Stars have also surprised against Nashville I feel.

[Fraggy]

I agree and a winner 15 seconds from time is what playoff hockey is all about.

The winner takes it all.

[Shania]

Wow. TML are out and St.Louis Blues are through to the quarterfinals. But I have to endure cope with Zuccarello AND Solskjær for another few weeks unfortunatly...

[Fraggy]

Certainly a crazy 1st round.
I'm going for a Boston St. LouSt.final with St.Louis beating The Bruins over 7 games

[Shania]

Dallas will probably rise to the occasion. I hope not though...

[Fraggy]

Game 7 with home ice advantage, really looking forward to this and hoping St.Louis can do it.

[Shania]

I agree. They can do it. But I hope they can keep Zuccarello quiet,. And Tarasenko has to show his worth..

[Fraggy]

What a game, if it wasn't for Bishop, St.Louie would have won by a landslide.
Hoping Colorado make the conference final. That would be a good matchup.

[Shania]

I haven`t seen it yet, but I do indeed look forward to it now when I know the outcome.. Craig Berube must be a very good coach and what a player Zuccarello is in front of goal for Dallas...Happy days. Imo, Binnington is nearly as good as Ben Bishop. I do also fancy Colorado in the final, but their form is shockingly good..

[Fraggy]

Binnington made some great saves also, and considering he didn't have many shots to stop during regulation, he did well to stay sharp.
Bozak had a fairly good game also with an assist for the winning goal.
