Avs looked really good, it wasn't as close as the score would indicate. Blues had a few moments but I predict a blowout in game 2. Tough to win when you're out-shot 13-zip in OT, knew Binnington would be tough though...wish Avs had him. They would be unbeatable for sure. Blue line guys stepped up for Avs.

Pulling for the Rangers since my Bruins got eliminated but I don't believe anyone is going to beat the Avalanche. I don't like St Louis or Colorado but it's hard not give the AV's credit where it's due, no SC for Canada once again. lol Did you forget about the Oilers and Flames? which is about to start, right now... game 1...gonna be good.

Most boring game I have seen where 15 goals were scored, no hate, no real hitting, horrible goaltending. Hopefully it gets back to Alberta hate tonight.
The blues and avalanche was a great game last night, I like both teams, but the blues get the edge from me.

The panthers will not recover from that loss, it is one thing to loose but to loose with less than a second to go in regulation time is devastating.

I don't know what the numbers are here, but in Canada less than 8% of kids play hockey. That is not good for the future of the sport.

That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Maybe so, but the flames were 5th overall and 4th in goals against. I think the team to beat is going to be TB, even though their stats don't show much, they come in when its clutch time.

Anyone watch the Connor McDavid show last night?....He skates through the entire team with the puck about 5 times every game. Its hard to believe without seeing it, but he makes some of the best players on the planet look like fools. The best player I have ever seen.

Kadri is a prick, I can't believe nobody punched him out, Binnington looked like his knee was hurt pretty bad, not the first time Kadri has done that. Great game.

I was curious to others perception of that play. As a blues fan I’m going to say we were robbed with a cheap shot. But it is playoff hockey and things step up a big notch but I still think it was a cheap play. Reminds me of the year Cujo got taken out and had he not been injured I’m convinced the blues would have gone deep.

Thats Kadri's game, he will never escape that stink, great player though. That is the risk a team takes when you have a guy like that on the team, I would feel alot better if someone tuned him....and that is the trouble today, no consequences. Think Dave Semenko, or Bob Probert.

Reminds me of the year Cujo got taken out and had he not been injured I’m convinced the blues would have gone deep. OK, here's an Avs fan's take: Unfortunate result to a hockey play. The St Louis D (Rosen) and Kadri were engaged prior to the collision and were in pursuit of a loose puck. Don't feel it was intentional, just two players that ended up headed toward the net. This wasn't a cheap shot, the hit Kadri put on Faulk last year was. Kadri has a history, no question, and it will follow him for the rest of his career. He's an FA after this season and it will be interesting to see where he lands. I suspect any number of teams would want him on their rosters.
