I posted this on the first page... and I know it's the opposite of what actually happened, but this is even better. I figured the Jets were more talented and had a better goalie, so if anyone would get the sweep it would be them... I should have just wished for the ideal scenario right off the bat.
This is so much more fun.
The Oilers get to realize that they're so bad at hockey they got swept by a team that then got swept by the Montreal Canadiens... who I believe will by necessity play the winner of Vegas / Colorado and get utterly
stomped into the ground, further emphasizing the no goodness of the Oil.
Meanwhile, the Leafs get to realize that they were one game, one
goal, away from getting what would have apparently been more or less a free pass into the semifinals. After all, they outscored, outshot, outplayed Montreal in that first round series, so surely they too would have beaten this Jets team. But they lost. And next year they go back to having to deal with Tampa and Boston. They'll never get this chance again.
It's all so
sweet.
