He actually had slightly less TOI than last season. So define 'completely overused'? If we're saying the new standard for starting goalies is 55-60 games, he was only a handful of games more than that. It's not like he was in the 70+ game territory. I would describe his workload on the upper end of the average scale but by no means overused. He was actually semi-decent in their 1st round exit last year (which was due to a multitude of factors), but just doesn't strike me as the kinda goalie that could lead a stacked team like the Avalanche to the promise land. If they somehow do it, it'll be inspite of Georgiev.

What a colossal collapse by the Islanders. Not sure if they'll mentally recover from this one. Way to sit on a lead ya dumb fucks.

Refs definitely should definitely get the primary assist on that first Boston goal

- @Phil better? - Statistics and probability aside, it's still not really all that ballsy considering the context of this thread. Tweety would've probably made a ballsier prediction mate. - No certainly not by my definition, considering my prediction in this thread and the near-success of my take in the regular season ballsy thread Perhaps you were thinking of some of the others and their parallel universe predictions

Looks like a lot of people missed the 'Ballsy' part and just went with any likely prediction they could think of And since when is a Presidents Trophy winning team sweeping the lowest seeded playoff entrant considered ballsy?

Toronto got smoked by Tampa Bay 7-3 in Game 1 last year and I think we all recall how that series turned out...so let's not count them out yet. Although tonight's going is going to be key. Even if they don't get the win, they absolutely need to look more competitive and show they can hang with the Bruins.

Vintage Kreids.

It's that extra gear French Canadians tend to have in the playoffs

CHARLIEEEEEE A bit premature if you ask me

Wtf how did that go in?

I didn't see no elbow there. Good sell job. Sit down pal.

VESEY!

Rempe checks so hard, he even managed to break Phil's board server.

THE REMPINATOR!

Oh for fuck's sake, come on...
