Wow Panthers keep rolling on the road!
Panthers are definitely pesky.
Watching Seattle and Dallas. The Krakken look good. Would like to see them in NJ in the final. The speed between those two teams would be fun to watch

Not sure if you saw this or not....
There were many reasons to be hopeful when Fenway Sports Group purchased the Pittsburgh Penguins in November 2021. They are a leadership group that has a history of building successful franchises and winning championships. But as the Penguins progressed through the 2022-23 season, fans questioned whether Fenway Sports Group was paying attention.
Fans acknowledged that general manager Ron Hextall had assembled a roster with obvious weaknesses. 'Fire Hextall' shouts were heard at several home games. Supporters were disappointed with Fenway Sports Group for allowing the team to flounder.
The same questions have been raised by supporters of other FSG-owned sports clubs. Some of them have grown more vociferous than others. In addition to the Penguins, FSG also owns MLB franchise Boston Red Sox and English Premier League club Liverpool FC.
During Liverpool's most recent match against Tottenham, an aircraft flew over Anfield with a banner that attacked the ownership group.
It's interesting to see this message originating from Liverpool supporters. The Red Sox and Pittsburgh Penguins haven't performed to their full potential, but the Reds have been consistently dominant.
Liverpool are currently ranked 5th in the Premier League standings. They also won the Champions League in 2019, Premier League title in 2020 and the FA Cup in 2022. Penguins fans are wondering whether the ownership group even cares about their team.
The Penguins' main objective is to compete for the Stanley Cup. Their search for a new general manager is now underway.
The Pittsburgh Penguins had the longest playoff streak in the NHL when FSG acquired them back in 2021. They finished at the top of their division during the 2020-21 season. Unfortunately, they haven't been able to keep up with the rest of the league's top teams since then.
FSG purchased Liverpool from American businessmen George Gillett Jr. and Tom Hicks for £300 million in 2010. The club won a sixth Champions League trophy in 2019 and its first Premier League title in 2020.
However, their relationship with Reds supporters has significantly deteriorated. This is due to lingering resentment over the European Super League fiasco, exorbitant ticket prices, and a lack of spending on their roster. They have fallen from title contenders to a club that is fighting tooth and nail to qualify for the Europa League.

They struggled getting out of the gate against the NYR too. Hopefully they still have something left in the tank. I'm ok with Carolina winning too.
Just one game ,they got blasted at home game one last series so we will see
Carolina is fast too. A lot of speed teams this year
Panthers win second on road,go up 2-0
Buff is on suicide watch!

Love the way the Panthers are playing. I think they are the most dangerous team left in the playoffs.
Carolina having their way with NJ . They're up 3-0 with 2 minutes left in the second

They did. Very fun game. Three shorties for the Canes, two on one PP.
I was talking about that second winning game for the Canes, not the whole team, etc. I do appreciate that they are the lowest scoring team in this year's playoffs, and knocked out the Bs, who were the highest scoring team.

The NHL draft lottery is tonight...in the middle of the playoffs. If this were the NFL, it'd be a month after the season and there'd be weeks of hype leading up to it with a special event that would be must-see TV. The NHL makes it an afterthought.
Habs have 8.5% chance at #1
The nhl lottery has always been around this time of the year lol
Habs get 5th pick,didn’t move up or down
Chicago gets #1
Chicago gets #1
