I know this will sound really homerish, but is this really the best the East has to offer?

Every Eastern playoff game I've watched this year has led to me coming away absolutely certain that any team in the conference apart from the Caps would get waxed by the top 6 in the West and obviously we saw what happened with the Caps.

Watch the Eastern rep get to the Cup finals and sweep it. And I'll acknowledge a bias, but I just have not been impressed by the East. It seems that each of these games are just an exercise in sucking a little less than your opponent. Poor puck movement, intermittent effort, backup goalies kicking ass. I mean c'mon, the Lightning are without their TWO best players and they're just marching bravely forward - are we really to believe that they're just that damn good? No way; the whole conference just seems weak as shit.

Eh we'll see. The west has been strong for years in terms of cup wins. I just want to see my Pens have a shot and we'll see where it goes.

I'll take your word for it.

The 10 playoff hockey games I've watched this year, doubles the previous amount of hockey games I've watched in the last 30 years.

I don't watch hockey as much as I used to (although it's hard to avoid when you live in Toronto), but this is my impression whenever I do.

The Penguins won.
Good for them.

Blues PK better be up to par because all of the crying from the Sharks about penalties. 3 PP chances isn't enough, anything short of 10 chances and they got robbed.

Pasta Little Brioni 05-17-2016 12:07 PM

Blues had what 1???
