Sharpshooter

Matthews finishes the season with 69 goals. Nice.

Florida defeats Toronto to win the Atlantic.

Surprising, really, since Rangers fans usually don't do that sort of thing.

Is he just noticing this now? lol

I'm not looking forward to hearing that stupid horn again. Keep it to a minimum.

I'm sure their first round ouster is still fresh in their minds from last season. It should be a good series.

LOL Sam is going to have a field day with the Lindgren brothers.

Ah, I was just going to ask what their win means for those other teams. lol Eliminated three teams in one shot.

Yeah, true.

Washington takes the lead late with an empty netter!

Ottawa beat Boston, which means Florida can win the division with a victory tonight. They're up 4-2 on Toronto after two periods.

Yeah, I asked above if he's basically been black listed. It wouldn't surprise me.

Rempe and Tom Wilson?

One thing that just popped into my head that was special right off the bat was that 5-0 western trip they did early in the season. They started out 2-2 and go out there and do something this franchise had never done. That's when I knew they were all in with this coach and staff and as a group. They never looked back. Really only one bad month, two tops, all year. That was nothing. Insanely good and consistent.

Is Al Montoya playing anywhere?

Alex Ovechkin scores off a feed from Dylan McIlrath.

Not bad. Gallant officially black listed now around the league?

We joke, but they probably will hire Gallant. lol

Luca Del Bel Belluz scores in his NHL debut for Columbus. Out of all the names I've heard in my life, that is certainly one of them.

lol You beat me to it. He was never good in my opinion, and just so obnoxious and unprofessional. He definitely slipped this year I noticed, in the rare occasion I watched a Bruins game on the NESN feed.

Could we just have one playoff series that goes less than six games? Just one, I'm not picky. lol

Indeed. Also last season he got hit the head with that line drive there and really hasn't been the same since.

Correct.

He probably should have just retired in the offseason instead of early in the season. lol Unless, he just lost the passion overnight. He was always fun to listen and a big part of my childhood. He will be missed. They are honoring him at the Stadium on the 20th.

They absolutely nailed the atmosphere. It is perfect.
