I don’t know what to think. I’d rather play Vancouver, who in all honesty had a tough time with Minnesota. Calgary kind of worries me. Somebody is going to benefit from this COVID Cup and Calgary might be that team. Winnipeg was fodder in 1st rd last year for eventual Cup Champ and the Flames looked awfully good in that first rd.

Blues lose and they get Vancouver
Blues win and they get Calgary
Personally would rather play Vancouver. Something about playing Matthew Tkachuk vs his hometown team just doesn't sound fun for myself or the team.
I wouldn’t say the Canucks struggled...they are a young team learning how to win when it counts. They took care of a veteran Minnesota team in 4 games. Be careful what you wish for.....they don’t know how good they are just yet. I’ll give credit to their fans...most of them over at their forum on HF want to play the Blues if nothing more than to Just play the defending Champs.BillP. wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2020 4:18 pmI don’t know what to think.

That was my prediction as well before it all started but I still think Colorado might get there. Flyers are about a year ahead of schedule and they’ve still got so much talent coming. We are talking possible multiple cups here.BlueinNy wrote: Sat Aug 08, 2020 7:46 pm From all the games I've seen, Vegas vs Philly is the final.

Something needs to change there.
They could use so grit up front. Maybe a guy like I don't know....Nazem Kadri.
Yeah, it starts with the guy at the top. Shanahan derailed a promising young nucleus.
I think it should stay just the same. I love Leafs fans misery.BillP. wrote: Sun Aug 09, 2020 11:34 pmYeah, it starts with the guy at the top. Shanahan derailed a promising young nucleus.
On the other hand there was no promising young nucleus until Shanahan arrived. Trade one of your forwards for D and take it from there.BillP. wrote: Sun Aug 09, 2020 11:34 pmYeah, it starts with the guy at the top. Shanahan derailed a promising young nucleus.
