Hell yeah!!! Rats everywhere!!!

 

This final's gonna be really really good. Vagas and Florida are both ripping through teams. They're both good at pretty much everything. And Vegas has got some timely goaltending (out of nowhere). Also looking forward to seeing Eichel and Tkakuk go head to head. Both those guys are playing like beasts right now.

Those are three pretty significant things to get right tho. So kudos to you. You've clearly demonstrated that you're able to think about the game more intelligently any almost every single one of your countrymen.

I don't think these things were difficult predictions at all really. Tampa/Toronto was really close last year, and this time around Toronto got better and Tampa got worse. 

The Oilers are just not as good as they are made out to be. They are stacked up front, but they don't have a championship-caliber defense at all. And their goaltending? Woof. 

Boston faced zero adversity all season and coasted into the playoffs. They were ripe to get upset like many President's Trophy winners do. As soon as the Panthers pushed back, they had nothing. It didn't help them that Bergeron is always two steps from the ICU every playoff run.

If anyone has a clue as to who wins between Vegas and Florida and if it goes 4 or all 7 games.... good on ya.

 

Both teams traded for their engine's, Tkachuk and Eichel, and at the time I thought FLA was crazy to give up Huberdeau, Weegar and a 1st pick to Calgary who HAD to trade him or get nothing.

Agreed, I have no idea how to handicap this one. They're both playing so good. I guess I'd take Florida, by a hair. They just seem to get better and better. Last night's game was absolutely dominant. And I've got more faith in Bob than I do in Vegas' goaltending. But I think it's a really close, hard fought series. Florida in 6. BUT every game is going to be a nail biter.

She keeps refering to "the bad man" who "stole her passport" and "was trying to F her". 

It's looking more and more like Nichuskin is involved in human trafficking prostitutes. 

It's sadly not that surprising honestly. These Russian guys who come over get hooked up with the Russian Mafia super quickly. The Russian mob likes to rub elbows with big time athletes, and Rusky mobsters are usually the only other guys who can speak Russian that are around for these players. 

Even Datsyuk got hooked up with Milstein as soon as he came over. Milstein wasnt even a sports agent back then, just a shady Russian banker/loan-shark who was getting raided by the FBI 3 or 4 times a year. Now Milstein is a multi millionare and agent to many Russian players. I can almost guarantee Dats spent time with with some big time Russian mobsters whether he knew it or not. Especially as the Russian mob has a huge presence in Detroit.

I don’t care about the cynics, if people don’t wanna watch because it’s Vegas and Florida then that’s in them. I’m absolutely pumped about this series. This is going to be a barn burner.

tkackuk is the only reason its interesting
