Re: Ice Hockey - Stanley Cup Semi Finals

houston  . Tampa Bay Lighting keeps striking the NY Islanders.  Losing at home now.
Your prediction of the  NY in the final looks a shaky . Losing last night 2 to 1.

I only started watching the  Montreal / Toronto  Hockey playoffs  series .
Montreal has a lot of young guys , good passing , quick , a good goal tender  and the guys give  each other 'high fives' after crashing   some opponents into the boards. lol.

Anyhow tonight in Montreal ..... win it at home Habs.

Dancer, don't forget that Tampa is skating a player that puts them $18 million over the salary cap. Not considered cheating, as they did use a legal loophole, but it does give them a huge advantage.
Interesting development with the Habs. Head coach Dominique Ducharme has tested positive for Covid so he will be out for at least 10 days. If there are any further positives before tonights game they won't be playing in Quebec and possibly out by default. Let's hope they can carry on.
As for the Maple Leafs, I did like the way the Habs sent the overpaid, underachieving bums to the golf course early.

Did you see the overtime goal .
Montreal fans blew the roof off of the Center .   At 'bars' and people's  homes also.

Did you notice the shots on net differential?
Price stole another one but there is no way Carey can carry that on for the rest of the series.
Strange that only Ducharme tested positive for Covid after the trip to Vegas. No other positive tests on the entire team including players, assistant coaching staff, trainers and equipment personnel.
