Theyd be exactly where they are right now? Now imagine if they put some effort into finding a competent goaltender. But hey why focus on your teams real issues.
Would love to see Hagel win with the Bolts, and honestly don’t really mind anyone one else on their team except scum Perry, but that is enough to nullify everything. Unfortunately don’t see Avs having depth defense or goaltending to make this one close. Bolts in 5
I said it years ago and it's been true ever since but this has been by far my favorite team I've ever rooted for.
Man when is the last time we’ve had a finals where both teams were legitimately great? Pens/Sharks? This feels like an ideal matchup for an impartial third party hockey fan
Perry already has one, and Maroon already has 3 in a row so rooting for the Av's on this one as far as former Ducks go.
This is a dream final. Should have happened the last 3 years. Heart says Avs but I can see them outshooting the Bolts 40-20 every game and losing 2-1 every time.
I honestly hadnt looked at any stats from this playoff...you would think that the Rangers "kid line" was putting up elite numbers or something from the way they forced it down our throats they IN TOTAL had 23 points between 3 guys over 20 games...and one of them was a healthy scratch in an elimination game lmao
I think these teams are as evenly matched as it gets until you get to goaltending. Kuemper is just not on Vasilevskiy’s level and that will ultimately be the difference maker.
