I was kind of tilted Toronto got the pick, but then I realized they're going to screw it up anyway.

I missed the game. Still looks like your top line hasn't shown up but neither has Buffalos. Feel bad for anyone going up against Canes/Avs tho. I know Canes get hyped every playoffs but this really is the best team they've ever had, top to bottom incredible depth. But the Avs have depth an Mackinnon so I say Avs in 5 in the SCF against the Canes.

Our top line is not producing but they are generating chances. We are not winning the cup this year so I view it as a learning opportunity; playoff hockey is a different beast and they need to learn how to produce and this experience will make them better in the long run. We are also the youngest team in the playoffs and our core is signed to some incredibly friendly deals, so even if Buffalo wins the next 3 this year has been a success in my books.
The Canes have benefited from an incredibly weak division just like Vegas has. I would predict that when/if they face the Avs, its a 5 game series that will never be competitive.

Avalanche couldnt handle the elevation change. The atmospheric pressure at 823 feet above sea level was too great and it slowed them down.
