If Ottawa makes it to the SC finale maybe I'll be able to grab some tickets since Ottawa is having trouble filling their arena. :joy:

Ottawa's been doing a better job of filling their seats than Pittsburgh has. And it doesn't look like Game 7 in Pittsburgh will be a sellout either.

Well, Ottawa lost but they still did an amazing job. I for one wasn't expecting them to go this far. Let's see if the Preds can take on Pittsburgh.

None of the "experts" expected them to make the playoffs this year. So all in all I'd say it was a fantastic season.

But, ya, I'm jumping on the Preds bandwagon right now. :thup:

No shots in the second period for the Pens. That's not something we see often!

I can't believe how cruel Hockey can be sometimes. Preds deserved the win. New NHL record of some sort. Penguins didn't have a shot on goal for 37 minutes. :doh:

Yeah it's frustrating! The comeback was real until that late goal in the third. I hope this game will not affect Rinne for the rest of the serie.

If he was due to have a bad game in this series it was good that it came in the first game. :-D

Not looking good. :\ Good thing is the Preds are back in Nashville and Rinne needs to get his pants together.

If he keeps this up the Conn Smythe will go to a Penguin. :-(

Who'd actually get the Conn Smythe for Pittsburgh?
The award should go to the most valuable player. To me Crosby and Malkin are pretty much equally valuable and they swapped goalies so it's hard to give it to Murray.
Guentzel?

Guentzel has some chances IMO but Crosby and Malkin always have a step ahead.

It's shame their trailing with 2-1. Could be Preds leading the seriers. Overall been the better team. But this is hockey. :-D

If the Preds can steal Game 5 and have a chance to win it all at home.. That's going to be an even crazier crowd which I thought wasn't possible :-D

Omg good job Nashville again! Good job Gaudreau too!! =D> Now they could've lead 3-1 if it wasn't from that first game...

Also I've read a weird news. The Canadiens will meet Nolan Patrick alongside the Devils and the Flyers. :-? I dunno if they're planning something huge but that could be interesting.

We’ll listen,” Hextall said. “I’m not doing my job if I don’t listen. You never know what’s going to come along. As I said initially, I don’t anticipate trading the pick but you never know what comes along. You gotta be open to making your franchise better. If something comes along that makes us better we’ll consider it. But I do anticipate making the pick.
I really hope Flyers don't trade away this pick, getting either Nolan or Hischier would be a significant boost to the team and I don't think the Habs could offer something better.

That's what I'm thinking too. They're not McDavid or crosby but they do have a good potential. More than any Canadiens players at the moment IMO. Personally I'll go with Hischier over Patrick since he seems prone to injuries.
