Jackets look rusty, but Bobrovsky looks sharp. Bruins all over them early.
There is literally nobody standing in the Bruins way, if they don't win the cup, that's a massive choke.
All the teams who would have been a favorite to beat them lost in the first round, it's true.
And they are most experienced team left, this core has won the cup before.

It's Bergeron, Marchand, Krejci and Chara.

They've added McAvoy, Pasternak and Rask, which is an upgrade.

This is Boston's cup to lose.

There is nothing standing in your way.

The Bruins should be able to waltz.

This window is wide open.

It's your cup to lose.

It has literally been served up on a platter, everybody between the Bruins and the cup is so beatable.

The Bruins are of course beatable as well, but everyone else in their way is more beatable. Don't have to be Usain Bolt to win the Cup, just have to outrun the teams you play against.

I think the way is wide open for the Avs too.

Who is in the Avs way?

SJS, STL or Dal?

Bruins and Avs are the best teams left standing.

I hope Shanahan is paying attention.

His picks for coach and GM actually blew a relatively easy shot at the cup here.

Babcock is fucking useless, that we know.

But even Dubas screwed himself by being too timid to go out and get the pieces he needed.

Hopefully MacKinnon does that Crosby thing and drag the team to the Cup by leading by example. If there is anyone who steps up when the lights are brightest, it's Super Saiyan MacKinnon, he's done it his entire career, at every level. The Real Hart could go get dat Conn Smythe, let's go Big Mack.

Who is better than the Avs?

STL was in last place in January.

Dallas is a pretender, the Preds choked.

San Jose is San Jose.

Seriously. This is it. The future is now, the Avs can win the cup, right now.
