    Playoffs Round 1: Toronto Maple Leafs (A2) vs Tampa Bay Lightning (A3)

    I think they suspend to the injury and significance of player somewhat. Cernak is an important player for the Bolts, he had to leave the game, and it sounds like he could miss the next one. I'm not sure if Wingels missed a lot, or any time after Kadri's hit. Anyway, I've got no time for anyone...

    can you imagine dumping out your wallet to see this? Ouch.

    I think Marner and Croc are the only plus players tonight.

    I think that even at 4-2, there was still half the game left, and a reasonable chance. Bunting really screwed the team, imo.

    I thought the situation room called it a goal, not the ref?

    Better to lose big than by one goal in OT. Mission accomplished!

    Yeah, I'm with you there. You're conceding the game

    I can't see how that's over the line. I'm also bored and want some chocolate pudding

    That was really stupid of Bunting. That's the right call.

    That's a good way of looking at it. From my perspective, the management group has put together an entertaining, competitive team that has been fun to watch this season. Sure, I hope they do some winning in the playoffs, but I'm satisfied with the plan and the product regardless.

    Playoffs Round 1: Toronto Maple Leafs (A2) vs Tampa Bay Lightning (A3)

    Heh, I know what you mean. IMO - there's two ways that the leafs lose this series. Vasilevski, or the leafs core beating themselves by not being able to let go of their demons. It'll be a wild ride regardless.

    Round 1: Edmonton Oilers (P2) vs. Los Angeles Kings (P3)

    Ekholm was the ideal add for the oilers. They're capable of outscoring their problems, even in the playoffs, and now they have less problems to outscore. Oil in 5.

    Coaching and management changes around the league

    They've got a surprising amount of cap space in the offseason. I would think Dubas could be appealing for both sides. People keep talking about how Dubas is the one sweating; I think that narrative could shift very quickly.

    The "Mr. T" Man of the Match 2022-23 Edition: Once more into the breach

    Agree. And Holl, like nylander in the past, is the hero of the counter-narrative, so that tends to move votes. Reliable, well regarded defensive minute eating players aren't going to stand out generally. It's almost like two votes are needed - top6+goalie and bottom6+defense. This was fun...

    Lots of places for Dubas to land if he doesn't get an extension/doesn't accept an extension. I imagine he'd be a pretty hot commodity.

    Lightning vs. Maple Leafs - Apr. 11th, 7:00pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

    Dubas misfired pretty badly on Mrazek (I hated that move immediately after the signing was announced) and Murray, but he hit the mark on Samsonov. And he's been adept at getting rid of his mistakes, so hard to get too down on him considering mid-range goalie guesswork is just that.

    Lightning vs. Maple Leafs - Apr. 11th, 7:00pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

    I don't think Murray's stats are particularly good. .903/3.02 isn't exactly lighting the league on fire.

    Yup. But Woll is at least as good an option as murray.
