the biggest upgrade in my eyes is that we have gotten healthier and seemingly stronger as the playoffs have progressed, which is the exact opposite of the last two seasons. by the time we hit the wcf, we were out of gas. EDM is plenty rested too, so it'll be a good matchup of talent this time.
exactly. we're deeper, younger, and all of our top talent is available. I expect those on the Stars who have been quiet so far to make more noise this round.
well, the west is the demonstrably better league and the Stars have had to go through two cup favorites already. I'd be sorta surprised if there are any blowouts left. Maybe Skinner has an off day and let's three in a row in or something, but I expect both series to be tight and the games close. I wouldn't be surprised if multiple games go to OT
Not really sure the reasoning, but kinda crazy the east gets started tomorrow after just finishing yesterday. extra rest for the oil and stars.
who you got for the finals?
Stars in 6
Panthers in 7
Compelling matchup tonight. Will FLA continue their cup defense and get the home crowd to boo their team again or will there be a canadian team in both conference finals for the first time since 1994? Part of me wants to see the home crowd have to eat crow and mea culpa on the whole booing thing, but the other part of me says fuck the leafs, go cats!
the fact that either of those clowns has seen a shred of classified information is beyond infuriating. it's like the class idiots getting an advance copy of the test and the only ones who score 100 on it. fucking imbeciles
well, he can stop enacting pointless and vindictive tariffs, for starters. there's plenty he could be doing to help jolt the economy. the problem is he's doing the opposite. don't give him a pass on this shit
I think most people forget Steel was a first round pick; he's also 0-48 shootout attempts so your inclination is correct
Not a pretty route, but beautiful result. Go Stars!!!!!!!!!
agreed. I hope one day it's transferred back to capable hands, but I suspect that won't happen. musk purchased that platform to help control the narrative and sure as shit succeeded at that. the only way I see him giving it up is if he decides to shrink away from public life, which I could actually see him doing. he's wildly unpopular right now, from all sides
it really is pretty incredible. I mean, he must think he looks like an adonis. every time I think we have seen the depth of his delusions he reveals a new level no one was even aware of. I can't wait for the news we're all waiting on. every day. until it happens.
in the mild cope department, the mini stars won game 1 of their second round matchup with the Predators' affiliate Milwaukee Admirals. Texas Stars have 5 players averaging more than a point a game, lead by AHL ROY Justin Hryckowian with 9 points in 4 games. regardless of what happens this season this club is set up very well for a while.
