The Caps spent the last half of the season focused on Ovi passing Gretzky, not on playing team hockey.
They are vulnerable.

Caps/Jets final. Jets take it over the good-for-nothing Caps. My call rn thus it is destiny.

No more than any of the teams you see come out of the Atlantic Division. Boston & New York come to mind. You hate ua cause you ain't us
Toronto has shown themselves to be able to play for keeps this season. This isn't the same team from last year.
Not so sure. Once the GR8 race was done and dusted, they fell off the rails. I would be interested to see if they still have the hunger that Montreal showed getting to that WC slot.
Anything can happen in the post-season

Last time Montreal was in the playoffs they were in the finals.

Dallas got absolutely owned by Colorado tonight (5-1). Not sure what that says.
The Stanley Cup winner is coming out of the West. I want it to be Edmonton. I can accept Winnipeg, in a pinch.
I want the other team to be Toronto.

One thing about Leaf fans, they are willing to pay to support the team, despite their performance.

Dallas was holding strong up till the third, but they crumbled hard in the third. The empty net goal near the three min mark I think crushed them. With a home rink loss, I don’t think they have much hope going into Colorado.
I’ll hold you to that statement.
I’d at least like one of those two in the SCF.
Was almost tracking you till then.

I was with you up until WPG/MTL final. I’ll need that to be Jets/Sens to see The Cup rolling down Elgin this spring.

The Sens are the Leafs of eastern Ontario, but at least they occasionally get out of the first round.I was with you up until WPG/MTL final. I’ll need that to be Jets/Sens to see The Cup rolling down Elgin this spring.
Like the Leafs, they will find novel ways to choke and break your heart, but still bring you back for more.

Bah. The only thing this Sens team has in common with Ott teams of old is Alfredsson being a part of the picture (and if you were gonna bring something from then back, he is definitely the best thing). For me, it all depends on Brady and Ullmark. If Tkatchuk comes out of the gate a more responsible and offensive minded monster (too often it’s just straight monster) and Ullmark is at his best (consistently, mind) I think they’ve got a chance to go all the way. I don’t have any qualms about the performance of the rest of the team.
MTL has been a majorly pleasant surprise this year and are feisty as all get out. Montambeault has the chops to be the next Price, IMHO, but the team I think needs a little more seasoning and maybe another year with the addition of a few older leaders.
Btw, a lot of my optimism is based on Green smiling on his way to the airplane. I’ve never seen that before (nor has anyone else) so I feel it’s like a major portent.

Charles Barkley (former NBA great, TNT commentator and actually pretty knowledgeable hockey fan) has Toronto vs Edmonton in the SCF with Edmonton taking it all. In his opinion, Canadian teams are extra fired up this year because of tariffs (that bit might have been tongue in cheek), but he thinks Edmonton’s depth (McJesus and Drai) and experience will eventually tell.
I feel vindicated…

Battle of Ontario followed by one of the most electric Original Six rivalries for a spot in the cup final? Dear God the country would shut down east of Manitoba every night.

At between $10K and almost $30K per pair next year, not many mortals are paying for that. A lot of corporately-owned seats that are used as either internal perques or client relations. MLSE doesn'r care if there are bums in the seat for every game or, if there are, if they are even watching. So long as the seat is sold.

I didn't want the westerners thinking I was being Ontario focused as there's a lot of chips on shoulders over that way.

So the victory over the Habs will be that much sweeter
