More like watching a movie.
Yeah, this is relaxed as I've been for the Cup playoffs in a long time. The Blues were never in the running, so I got over the disappointment before the playoffs began.
I've just been watching to see playoff hockey, and it's been fun for the most part. Though the blowouts aren't that much fun when it's not your team doing the blowing out part. [Reply]

I'm as tight with the Flyers as I am with the Chiefs as far as fandom can go but wow the Flyers are in Scott Pioli and Matt Cassel years that it's tough to watch.
Gotta say, IDGAF except for good hockey.
I grew up a Sabres fan...I'm in Browns and Lions decades :-) [Reply]

Florida forgot how to play hockey in the 3rd, couldn't even complete passes. Hard to root for them when Montour is skating into guys after the whistle and flopping in a way that would make soccer and NBA players call him a clown... and Tkachuk's antics and sucker punching dude in the face..
The Leafs outplayed Florida for a lot of that series and just got goalie'd by them. Doesn't surprise me that Vegas is getting it done this easily. [Reply]
