As far as I can tell on social media apps, many young people only follow sports for the gambling angle. Look at the chats on the Score app - it's only about whether the next goal affects their bets.

I have 763 other posts that have nothing to do with gambling. Not really sure why your trying to embarrass me with your post.

I'm a young person who only follows sports for the gambling? Sorry I guess I should've kept my comment to my self I just thought that was a very exciting last 90 seconds with great defence by the jets to protect the empty net

The score app chats talk gambling because the score has an online based gambling site in the unites states. That would explain why the chats are all gambling.

troutman is just jealous because he is, like, 274-years-old.

Looking back, I'm not as pissed that the Habs made it over us. The more they're in the playoffs, the more they're justifying their playoff qualification.

I didn't read it as a putdown.

I read it as just an observation

If the Habs sucked just a little more down the stretch and the Flames got in instead, right now we'd be watching Toronto fans being overjoyed at finally getting over the hump instead of getting to see yet another historic Leafs collapse. I'm very thankful Montreal made the playoffs instead

I always find Montreal to be such an anomaly in the league. They seem to make the playoffs randomly/inconsistently. They have not had what I would call “gamebreakers” in a long time. And their overall talent level has not been that impressive to me in decades.

Despite all that... they seem to always give “superior” teams a hard time when it comes to the playoffs. Over the years, they’ve upset teams like Pittsburgh and Boston... and now Toronto. No matter what version of the team is on ice over the years... it feels like they have things just go right for them in the playoffs... remember the insane run Cammalleri went on in the playoffs for them? Now they face Winnipeg whose big strength is depth at center and what happens? Their center-depth disappears.

One of the big reasons for Montreals phantom playoff success over the years I think is Price... he has whole seasons where he’s very mediocre or often-injured and then, all of a sudden, he gets into a zone. And when price is in that zone, I think he is the best goalie in the game and could even be considered one of the best players in the game. Having that kind of goaltending can be more valuable than anything else in a playoff run.

It would not shock me at all to see this exact same team finish bottom 5 next year and then squeak into the playoffs the following year and win a round or two... and then miss the playoffs again the following year. They are just such a weird team to read.

A Habs sweep is a pretty great scenario. It further proves that E=NG, and maybe makes TOR feel good enough that they just stay the course.

COL sweeping the Avs will then also be funny.

Don't forget the 121 pt Pres Trophy winning Capitals team. (4th highest reg season pts since 1978)

In 1993 after getting by the Nordiques, they played teams that had upset the favorite the round before in every series. A really pedestrian team but they had Roy.

After they get swept in 4 straight 7-0 games next round I will be happy the Habs won that game were the Flames hit 4 posts
