Who's the MVP of the series, Tkachuk or Bobrovsky? that's a good question. no wrong answer i reckon. Bob. Florida loses to every team they've played thus far if Bob doesn't play like he has since entering the Boston series. |

true i guess, but there's a thousand other scenarios that result in the same outcome.
this one just happens to likely be the most direct (and coolest).

I must say, my absolute favorite part of this Florida run is the fact that Tkachuk is doing so well and he spurned the home town blows to go to FL instead...
sooooooo happy he ended up in FL and not st loo...

I misread what you wrote earlier. I would go with Bob for the overall run, but probably Tkachuk for this past round. it'd still be close, though... |

How pathetic....they just showed a commercial with teams winning the Cup through the years, showing Brett Hull, Brind'amour, Crosby, Ovechkin, several black and white clips too. You know who they didn't show? Toews and any of the Hawks videos of him getting the Cup Same thing last year when they were marketing the run to the cup. 1-year possible innocent omission, 2 years in a row definitely a pattern with a purpose behind it. |

Read somewhere that this is the third straight time the Canes got swept in ECF. I've been a 'Rod the Bod' fan due to a great career,being a great teammate, being a demanding HC and always icing a good defensive team BUT......is he the right man for the job? |

With 4 one goal games and 2 of them in OT, Cane fans will wonder if their best player, Svechnikov would have made a difference.
And Patches too.

A lot of offense on injured reserve with Pacioretty and Svechnikov, plus Teravainen just returned for the series versus Panthers. Necas and Aho were keyed and held in check. The lost 4 one goal games and essentially three in overtime with the fourth game less than 5 seconds left. |

I'm not sure either is the Tkachuk/Ovechkin/Kane type they really need, though. |

The lost 4 one goal games and essentially three in overtime with the fourth game less than 5 seconds left. I like Rod and I'm not saying I replace him but isn't there an 'explanation' every year? They do miss Svech's 23 and TT's 12 goals but Patches went out after five games,plenty of time and LTIR space to address that offensive loss. A sweep's a sweep and when we suffered ours two years after actually winning a few.......everybody had to go. I thought Maurice won the chess-match,'Chucky' won the cage-match and 'Bob' might have won a few 'Connie' votes. Anyone remember Alex Lyon.....WHO??? Carolina had plenty of space and seven picks in the 1st three rounds the next two years to improve their roster like most other contenders did at the TDL,they got Puljujarvi for next to nothing and they got next to nothing from him.....2asts in 17 games. I guess they got what they paid for from the 37yro Stastny signing too,9gls/22pts for 2M. |
