Man, what a roller coaster of a season. This team has come together eerily similar to the Kings back in (2012?). I never expected them to beat the B's, never mind the Leafs. Never been so happy to have my bracket blown to bits.
Can we take the Hurricanes? Should be very interesting to say the least. Either way, I'm happy. Go figure.

I think this might be the Cat's year. The path to the finals looks pretty smooth. Tampa is gone. NYR are gone. Bruins are gone. Avs are out. As long as Bob stays dialed in, I think the Cup is Florida's to lose.

Edmonton has McJesus and Dry Saddle, but nothing else. Dallas, nope. Vegas, nope. Carolina, god I hope not. Seattle just doesn't feel like it yet. I think the Cats beat any of these teams right now they way they are playing.

The only wildcard is Bob.

Going to be a tough series. But Bob and the Cats are riding the wave.

I keep reading about the Leafs complaining about their big guns not scoring. They had plenty of shots. It wasn't for their lack of effort. It was BOB !

They built a little animosity for each other over the season in the covid division.
Usually pretty hard fought games between them. This is going to be good.

What Florida Cats have done so far is nothing short of amazing.
Keep it going!

Reminding me of the ‘12 and ‘14 season as well.

Little bit of both from those years

Is Eklund trolling the Leafs?..... The advert on the Leafs’ blog page is for leaf blowers don’t see that ad popping on other teams’ pages

Absolutely a wild and scam filled game 5 and I couldnt be happier. The Leafs salty tears taste amazing. Carolina took us pretty easily in game 82 so lets hope we dont revert to that mess. We need to win some damn faceoffs for crying out loud we got blown away in that round especially on draws. I am more worried about the West than another user pointed out. I dont know why or how Vegas is rolling with Hill in net but its working for them. Hot goalie at the right time I guess? Similar to the Cats

This is the series that worries me the most...
Carolina has always seemed to have the Cats number, but this is the conference finals.. anything can (and likely will) happen.

Buckle up!

Bingo are you in the Carolinas? I have noticed that so far the ban on everywhere else still seems to be in tact not just a 24 hour ban like the Florida/Toronto fiasco

Does Carolina typically sell out? I just made the trip to Florida but thought about possibly going half the distance instead to Raleigh but I guess not if they never release the ticket restrictions

Nah I live in Saskatchewan.

This year the Canes sold out every home game and have been on a sell out streak since late last season.

Winning culture can do that. However CAR struggled to put 6000 asses in the seats only a few years back. Pretty fickle Hockey culture there. Florida is lucky to get 5000 per game regular season unless it Habs or Leafs lol.

If Bob stays dialed in and steals some games, I think Cats win. Regardless of who wins, I think this series goes long. 6 or 7 games.

Aho and the Skjei/Pesce pairing will match up against Barkov.

Staal and the Slavin/Burns pair against Tkachuk and Bennett.
