My guess is Leafs in 2.
The caps will forfeit the series after Lou himself comes out on the ice and decides to bust

Also to be followed by mega jersey sales for Duchene, posts of "best team since 1993!" and "oh my god Duchene - Radulov unf unf unf!"
Man we need a Habs/Leafs series.
Won't happen this year with the Leafs having to beat 2 Metro teams to get there. Maybe the next time the Leafs make the playoffs
in 2030

Has there been any updates on Andersen after that hit?

Apparently he has no concussion symptoms. Doesn't appear to be injured. Learned this from yesterday's Overdrive, which also features some of the worst hottakery you're likely to hear this week.

Listening to Toronto media yesterday and I'm convinced now that the Caps have no chance.
Leafs in 4.

Yeah I didn't understand ODog's take that Andersen's reaction in the Pittsburgh game ensured he came out. He almost insinuated that Andersen wanted to be pulled from that game for some reason and wasn't actually injured on the play.
Except the ones that do.

Reminds me of the time the Kings color guy was reflecting on the fact that the President's Trophy was kind of meaningless because no winner had ever gone on to win the Cup in gosh, how many years? Decades? Has it ever happened? I don't think it has!
And then ten minutes later he had to correct himself because the Blackhawks did it two years prior, in 2013.

No it wasn't, you were talking about President's Trophy winners in general. You never specified the Capitals in any way, shape, or form.

Plus, Pres trophy winners usually do advance passed the first round.

In addition to that, the Capitals themselves have advanced to the second round in half of the years that they've won the President's Trophy, the most recent time being last year. More President's Trophy winners have gone on to win the Stanley Cup in the past 30 years than have been eliminated in the first round over the same time period.
Line_HTX, you must answer for your crimes.
Its no secret that Jim Fox is a complete fucking idiot. I felt bad for Bob Miller for having to put up with him.
Blues fan...hmmm.....go eat shit.

Line's bad day gets worse! I had some great calamari last night, succulent and sweet! Are you going to re-order?
I have to say, 8 AM is an iffy time for fried seafood.
Can you even re-order food in prison?
Well, he's never run Price before, so that seems about right.

Careful Marvie, Line has an anime army on the outside ready to carry out hits
What about the time he baited Emelin into tripping him into Price? Even more evil if you ask me.
I dont give a fuck. Pikma paid for it.

He did insinuate that lol! It was one of the dumbest bits of O'Neillism I've heard since his 'I wouldn't trade Matthews for anyone' tweet.
astro you crazy son of a bitch, the Leafs have future Finnish Star Kasperi Kapanen in their roster, you have to support them now too.
I haven't seen Dopey's predictions yet
I can't think of a reason why Oilers can't make it out of their division...
Everyone in that division looks beatable. Whether they can do it... who knows.
Is he busting what I think he's busting... "a fruit composed of a hard shell and a seed, which is generally edible"
I'll be sad when Duchene leaves

Yeah it was really bizarre even for O'Neill. I was starting to think he was the one who took the shot to the head there.
How can we not be? Nobody even expected the Leafs to make the playoffs this year, this is all gravy.

I knew AV would take the bait. Jeff Gorton shouldn't have even left the option on the table for him. This team is designed to be fast and skilled. That's how they're going to have to deal with "physical play" from Ott and co. Putting Tanner Glass is does absolutely nothing to address that and removes one of your fast, skilled players from the lineup. It's letting the Habs intimidate you into voluntarily making your own team worse before you even start playing the games.
We're going to get annihilated out there. It's going to be last year's first round all over again, just the Habs aren't as good as last year's Pens so the scores probably won't be quite as absurd.

He seems to believe that Andersen frequently checks out/misses games. Kind of weird, given that Andersen had the second most games played in the league this year (66).

That's what I mean, its refreshing.
I feel like in the past the fans had always had such huge hopes when we were anything better than mediocre.
