Agree, didnt want Colo at all. Dallas is a dangerous team when they get that supplemental scoring. Theyve been scoring all post season. Right now, I think they’re heading to the Finals.

Well Vegas got back on track and pummeled the Stars last night to even the series. Between Vegas finding its game and the all out beatdown that Tampa put on the Isles, I'm put the over under on total conference finals games at 11.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!

i just can't get excited about any of these games. i watched the blues games where i could but all the rest of this just seems kind of silly. i'm glad they are doing what they need to to keep the NHL viable, but it's all just sort of exhibition/scrimmage vibes for me.

The environment sure doesn't add tension to these games, but at least the hockey itself is pretty good. I actually watched a few minutes of an NBA game last night, and despite being the end of a close elimination game, I couldn't shake the exhibition type vibes (also the last 2 minutes take half an hour). I'll probably catch as much of the Cup Final as I can, but won't be cashing in any points with the wife to do so.

Brutal isn’t it?

That's the feeling of Cup Fever Withdrawal (CFW-2020). Or maybe you've just got The COVIDs. :?
