Nerds.

I am shamelessly swiping this from Reddit but someone there pointed out that last night JVR scored his 34th goal of the season, after which #34 scored his 29th goal of the season, after which #29 scored his 16th goal of the season, after which #16 scored.

To bring it full circle, Marner's goal was his 20th of the season and after that Gardiner scored his 5th goal. 20+5 = JVR's jersey number.

The Panthers loss made this a nice 4-point game.

Also right now the #4 and #5 best records in the NHL are going to face off against each other in the 1st round.  Excellent playoff formatting.

This is starting to sound like that Lincoln/Kennedy ting!

I didn't believe this numerology stuff until Marincin scored for the Preds to make it 5-2. That was just eerie.

Too bad, I feel sorry for #4. *sad face*

3 vs 6, actually. Also, the winner will likely face #2 in the 2nd round.

Austin's goal, it's amazing how he corrals the puck like a lacrosse player. He has the ability to literally pickup the puck with his stick at high speed and shoot. His hands are unreal. Please stay healthy.

This is what Andersen had to say.  Re: Auston's gaol

?He doesn?t quit,? said Andersen. ?I think a lot of players would just try to whack at it and shoot it, but he had the presence of mind and dragged it over. That?s the type of goals we really needed to score, too, on a good goalie ? if not the best this year.?
