I think they’re the best in the West, and the Rangers are the best in the East.

Can’t decide who’s better between them though. Thought the Hurricanes might’ve put up more of a fight against the Rangers but who knows.

Folks are going to be very pleased with Grushnikov when he makes the show as early as next year.

That was Edmonton.

The catch was that they send a piece they didn't like with the 1st.

Believe that was Ceci. Or so the rumor says.

I hope we get to find out the proper way.

Can’t stand Colorado, so after losing game 1 after being up 3-0 in the first period at home, Dallas did what they needed to do.

Definitely a dominant performance and excellent road game yesterday.

Not a Dallas fan, but between these two teams there’s no doubt which team I want to win…

When is Calgary going to be done with their retool?

Colorado is a weird team to hate.

You might think that if you haven’t lived within close proximity to the Colorado Avalanche and their fans for a long time.

I could give you a laundry list of things to hate about them, but instead I would just the high percentage of their bandwagon fans that could care less about the team unless they are winning and honestly deep in the playoffs.

Used to be known as the Divealanche back in the day…

I kind of hate the Avalanche and the way they were gifted a SC team and also ruined some of the best unis in the NHL.

I don’t really mind their fans, I’ve found them to be hospitable.

I’d agree that for the most part their fans are hospitable, except for game 3 in the first round of the 2019 playoffs… yeesh that was a rough experience and too many drunk a holes attempting to rub it in and gloat.

Regular season in the lower bowl is fairly benign.

The best road team is showing its strength over the best home team so far.

Georgiev has been unusually great so far. Avs could easily be down 2-0 already without his play tonight.

Oh man Makar just got robbed like he was a blind toddler by Johnston. 1-0 Stars. What a coming out party for Wyatt Johnston.

Avs are clearly rattled. They are without Toews as well.

Avs aren't focused thanks to the Nichushkin back in the substance abuse program. This could be the series here.

I guess Nichushkin was supplying the whole team...

Can't blame the goaltending for the Avs trailing tonight.

Avs look out of sorts, definitely not looking good for them right now. Everyone thought Georgiev would be their Achilles heel, but he's been their best player in this series.
