*****Official 2017 NHL Playoffs Thread With Contest*****
I thought it would be cool to have a thread for the best postseason in sports, the NHL Playoffs.
Even though my Kings are out, I love watching the playoffs and wish the best to all of you with your teams. Here's the link for the bracket predictor. https://bracketchallenge.nhl.com/leagues/chiefsplanet The password is Lonewolf and I hope we can get some of you in there with a bracket. Enjoy!

I'm so happy that the Leafs won....Big Leafs fan here. I honestly didn't think they were gonna pull that off.
Washington didn't have the killer instinct. They failed to close the game. They had a 5-on-3 for 2 minutes and didn't score. They even had another powerplay after that;after the Leafs took a delay of game penalty and didn't score. Those were their opportunities to bury The Leafs but the Caps failed to do it. Great penalty killing for the Leafs. Those were momentum shifters and the turning points of the game imo. |

The Flames are done after blowing that lead at home.

I went to bed with no expectations of my Ducks winning and I woke up to see they won.
Honestly, we looked like shit but Elliot looked worse and that's how we won.....OOF.

You can probably just stick this into the Blackhawks....

On a non-related note that nobody other than Kings fans care about, I'm intrigued by the fact that John Stevens hasn't been named head coach yet. Blake was zeroed in on him last week as the only person he was looking at. The fact that he hasn't been named yet indicates to me that they might be moving in another direction. And really, since Stevens is a defensive-minded coach (as I understand it), I think it would be a rough sell for a team that is so goal-starved. |

Three Pens in the crease, you'd think one might help out Fleury a bit on that one....

IMO, it's a bit much. You can look to Steve Yzerman, (GM TB) and Brendan Shanahan, (Pres. TOR), as successful examples of former players filling these type of roles, but, the list of failures is a long one. Joe Sakic, (GM CO), and Trevor Linden, (Pres. VAN), are 2 prime examples that are still employed. |

I'll be in the house as STL tries to break out the brooms...
Which likely means a 4-1 Minnesota win. I'll stay this - if the Blues can come out tonight and take care of business, I'll become a believer again. They've lacked the killer instinct in years past. |

Interesting news out of Barffalo. The Sabres have fired head coach Dan Bylsma. This comes after Jack Eichel allegedly said that he wouldn't re-sign with the Sabres if Bylsma were still the coach. Jack Eichel = Coach Killer |
