So much of random hate for Ronaldo or Messi seems to stem from the endless debate between the two. At some point you'd think people would just come to appreciate what both are still continuing to do in their careers at a level that just...I mean you don't want to say shouldn't be possible, b/c...

As much as I'd love to see Jersey knock out Tampa, that Tampa/Boston 2nd round series would be just awesome to watch.

Read somewhere about Babcock making comments about 4th line playing against Bergeron. Is he trying to get swept?

Hornqvist actually getting called for all his usual bullshit warmed my soul last night.

I'm sure you agree with me about Wilson getting a game. I actually try to be objective, even when it is my guys. Surprised and a little disappointed the league didn't at least call him and fine him. Arguing that the hit on Kempny shouldn't have been a major is just crazy town.

you mean Juvy.

Yeah...Foligno and that fake fall completely deserved the penalty. He got bumped, then turned it into a "oopsie let me fall right on the goalie" moment. We've played Briere before in the playoffs to know exactly what that looks like. Major completely deserved, saw the numbers the whole way...

Liverpool can definitely score against Madrid's D.

Of course, we also had to play with only 5 D man for most of the game because of it. Kempny only had 4 minutes TOI when that happened. Columbus' only even strength goal in regulation came off a play in neutral where a stick on the ice in front of their bench deflected the puck up in the air to...

That was his fault for choosing to stay out longer earlier in the shift, until they were all completely gassed and needing to continue the cycle. If you're going to stay out late, you better not make that lazy change when they're trying to continue the cycle through you. Bura's penalty...

No easy matches but Liverpool definitely got the break with Roma over Bayern or Madrid. Madrid has has PSG, Juvy, and Bayern now in the knockouts.

Late lead...check. Take a bad penalty...check. Let them tie it up...check. Lose in OT...check. It's playoff time, baby.

Yeah when ref sees this from his angle, it's going to be a penalty every time.

I'm not as convinced Real pulls that out without a penalty or Ronaldo pulling something off. Just didn't feel like anyone else was going to score. Could have won in penalties, I suppose.

I think he made actual contact with the ref, not sure how serious I was too blown texting that ref actually made that call in the final minute of stoppage in a 3-3 tie.

Got up in the ref's face after the penalty call, no idea what was said though, but given the red. All credit to Juvy for making the tie as close as it was, on the road and with no Dybala.

Huge mistake on his part. Not sure anyone was saving that penalty, Ronaldo hit it well, but at least give yourself and team a chance.

Well I must say. Well hit penalty in a clutch moment. Not how you want to go through, and that call might have been pretty light.

Wow. What a call at this stage of this tie. Holy hell. I agree there's contact, but I just don't know. Great header down by Ronaldo to set that up. Clearly Ronaldo will take it, as well.

It literally feels like the only way Madrid wins this is if Ronaldo produces another bit of magic.

If Madrid had scored to make it 2-1 and carried that until about the 70th minute, I think the tone of the game would change a great deal. Only needing 1 to force extra time at 2-0 and needing 2 to win it definitely feel different. Now of course, they're on even footing in the tie, but Juvy...

Thought the 2nd goal kind of came against the run of play. Surprised Madrid hasn't punched one in. Sets up for a lot of drama in this 2nd half, though. If Madrid can hold the fort for the first 20-25 minutes and score a goal though, it becomes a big hill to climb again.

Can't do much about it. They've tried 4 times to set up Khabib and Tony. Shit is cursed.

Yeah, I'm saying he was broke before that ever happened. As far as that goes, his career shootout numbers are below average for a reason.

Um...I think the Penguins broke him in the 2nd round the last couple years. But if we play Boston I'd give him the start right away.

I can't believe Barca blew that agg lead. Roma seemed to deserve the result as well looking at the match stats. Barca slight edge in possession but you always expect that. Otherwise massive game and result for Roma. If Bayern go through, semis going to have 1 team each from Spain, England...

Man City and Barca both out. Can't believe Barca blew this tie, amazing job Roma.

Hahaha 2-1 now. And holy hell if Roma nick another goal here life will be crazy.

Grubauer has been the better goalie for awhile now. When he got the start in Pittsburgh with the division on the line and the game against Nashville, writing was on the wall.

There's the away goal. Pretty much done deal

Take my money.

There's parts I can enjoy from all of the movies. There's no avoiding that a lot of Episode 1-3 (mostly 1 and 2) isn't very good. Just as there's no avoiding the huge plot issues in 8, and the lack of any coherent feel from 7 into 8.

East Tampa in 6 Boston in 7 Washington in 6 Penguins in 6 West Nashville in 5 Winnipeg in 6 Vegas in 6 San Jose in in 7

Jared. All day. Still love this show.

Not sure I like the 4th and 10 option, could increase the conversion rate by quite a bit and while executing onside kicks well is a niche skill, it can be important enough for a good kicker/special teams unit to help sway a game. The 4th and 10 model just gives even more power to the teams with...

If you didn't like the lack of foreshadowing to sell certain possibilities, you won't like episode 8 very much.

So basically everything set save for if Boston can grab #1 seed in the East today. Battle of PA lives again, Caps get a Torts' coached team one more time in Columbus. Some good match ups out west as well.

Quite the 2nd half fight back. Pogba was great. Hopefully something to build on.

Pretty sure Dana will never try to schedule Khabib v. Tony ever again given how this has all gone. Cursed.

Sounds like the movie Draft Day. Move up to #2 overall when you could just pick him with one of their normal picks.
