The Official NHL 2023-2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs Thread

New jersey arrived in the mail Thursday. Money well spent, I'd say.

So this is the second time that 3 Canuck goalies have each won a game in a single playoff series (2004: Dan Cloutier, Johan Hedberg, Alex Auld). I would have to imagine that other teams have done this, though I can't think of any.

EDIT: Apparently the 1972 Blackhawks are the only other team to do so.

The...Oilers...just won a playoff game 1-0?

My god. The implications.

Is this their final form?!

I will laugh if the Leafs win this without Matthews, actually rooting for it to happen.

If there's a game they'll win, it's with Matthews out.

Remember that 5 game win streak when Rielly got suspended?

If/when they do lose though, they better not say Matthews not being 100% is why they lost. Enough excuses, take responsibility and go Raptors/DeRozan mode and do the unpopular move that needs to be done.

Not that there's a Kawhi level guy just available like that, but you gotta rip the band aid off.

Can you get called for a dive when the refs the one who caused a player to "fall"?

The ref came in to separate Holmberg and Marchand. Marchand had no idea the ref was coming, as soon as the ref put his hands on Marchand to skate him away from Holmberg, Marchand dropped as if he just got punched in the face.
