    Dallas - Winnipeg is the first near-complete game I've watched in years. (on TV)

    It was nice the Refs let them play, and the game is sooo much faster than it
    was even 10 years ago.

    Two things I didn't like: why does one team look like they are wearing old
    Blackhawk uniforms, and the other team look like old Maple Leaf colors?
    There is no way I would have guessed that was Winnipeg just by looking
    at the crest on their sweaters (jerseys). I don't recall seeing 'JETS' anywhere...

    The 2nd is - I think there should be a ban on the computerized rolling billboards
    that are the boards now changing while the puck is in play, but if not that, you can
    only change them on one end while the puck is in the other end.
    To me it's a stupid distraction... but others may not give a darn.

    But it was a helluva game, where was Mike Modano? (LOL)

    those digital board ads are annoying but I saw somewhere it increased the NHL’s ad revenue by 20% so they aren’t going away any time soon :(

    Mostly certain that there are several million very anxious Leaf fans this afternoon and evening!

    Pretty excited myself and awaiting the 730p EDT start. :)

    I was not saying to ban them, I was suggesting NOT swapping images when the puck is in play.
    There are enough breaks in the action where that should be OK to do.

    One of his story posts is still up. They only expire after 24hrs
    You seem to be a good luck charm, keep going to the games!

    Panthers draw first blood :)

    And just now, SECONDING that motion. 2-0.
    See if Trawna has any answer.

    AND, another edit to reflect the third FLA Panthers goal.........

    Not looking good for the Leafs. Dirty ass Panthers will be moving on baring an absolute miracle finish by Toronto.

    Leafs standing around looking at each other as Sam Reinhart makes it 5-1.

    Trawna fans now booing their team.

    Marchand does it again. What an amazing playoff player. Toronto didn't come to play.

    Glad I didn't get premature with the this is our year. I forgot did I predict Florida in 5 or 6?

    Go oilers go!

    Not many from the states!

    Stars
    Colin Blackwell (MA)
    Jason Robertson (CA)
    Thomas Harley (NY)
    Jake Oettinger (MN)

    Florida
    Mackie Samoskevich (CT)
    Matthew Tkachuk (AZ)
    Seth Jones (TX)
    Jaycob Megna (FL)
    Nate Schmidt (MN)

    Edmonton
    Trent Frederic (MO)
    Max Jones (MI)
    Derek Ryan (WA)
    Cam Dineen (NJ)
    Ty Emberson (WI)

    Eric Robinson (NJ)
    Jalen Chatfield (MI)
    Shayne Gostisbehere (FL)

    Jaccob Slavin (CO)

    Strange how each team has almost the exact same number from the states! It is like there is a quota. When I was a teen I flew alone and guy next to me was a professional soccer player. I probably asked something stupid like are you good, he said he wasn't very good, but was an American and the MLS teams had a quota there had to be so many Americans.

    23 man roster, NHL is one of the few truly international sports (lots of Canadians, Europeans, etc), so 5-6 Americans per team sounds about right. maybe the bad teams have more :p

    I dunno. Vegas shut down McDavid and Draistail and still lost. They are tough.

    Dallas favored -1.5 Game #1, but Winnipeg had been favored over Dallas too.

    Let's not get carried away and put Oilers in the same bucket as the Jets. The Jets and Leafs just can't make it happen in playoffs.
