Boston is missing their #1 and #3 d men. That's why it won't change my opinion.

Chicago is pretty healthy and got stomped

why ya raining on our parade?

Sorrrrrry
We could still potentially trade Lehner though
Maybe go after Bishop, Elliott, Darling, Fleury, etc
Idk that I'm psyched about those options...
but 3 are proven starters & Darling is up & coming

I'd probably just stick with Lehner
2yr extension?

Holy!! Business in the front, party in the back

that series came down to Rinne bc hes a roller coaster of a goalie. He was good Rinne and not .887 rinne

i'll bet they never mentioned that...goalies don't matter any more

Chicago outshot them in every game but 1
And the 1 that Nashville led in shots was the one where they didn't call the Goalie interference that let them tie it up late

People take these advanced stats as the end all, be all
But obviously they don't tell the full story

Answer my question...

Nashville. When it mattered. Chicago started to get more shots around the 35 minute mark when they were down.

Look for yourself man. If you hate them, why ask about them?

I just got hosed in my draft...I went with Logic and went hard with Hawks but my heart wanted to take the Preds bc I like that roster so much more.

Yeah goalies aren't important or you put up a .979 sv% in an sweep of the top seed in the west

I read in the Buffalo News that Bada Bing declared bankruptcy around 10:30 today.

According to some, they're almost all the same
Their overall numbers may be,
But in a playoff series u can see exactly why the Goalie is still (and always will be) the most important position on the ice

Rinne was great, Crawford was mediocre
That equals a Nashville win
Even though the Hawks were better all year
Even though the Hawks had the better possession numbers

Advanced stats aren't worthless...
but they don't tell the whole story either

Chicago outshot them in every game but 1
And the 1 that Nashville led in shots was the one where they didn't call the Goalie interference that let them tie it up late

There is the old saying....show me a good goaltender and ill show you a good coach. One of Dons before he went bat poop crazy.

Goaltenders can mask so much, making a team seem like a juggernaught

Or you don't know what you are looking at.

At 5 on 5 Nashville was a 62% possession team. Better than Chicago.


They also were much better when the score was within 1, or close and they weren't sitting back with a lead

whats the Rangers Habs series looking like. Bc those games are really coming down to which probably Hall of Fame goalie is more locked in

Down by 1 goal halfway through the game doesn't mean Chicago got their shots when it didn't matter

I asked, to prove you wrong

Chicago led in shots for the series, but got swept
Not bc of possession stats...
which you say determines what team is better...

They lost bc Rinne FAR outplayed Crawford
