You would think bylsma would be worried about his own job.
That's a funny statement from a team that employs Carcillo and just saw Keith suspended for a cheap shot. I know what you're getting at, but it's not entirely true. Hits are a very relevant stat but too many people relate hits to giant open iced collisions when in reality it just shows how physical a team is. The Penguins were very physical in our series at the beginning. The first two periods of the BOS/PIT series was a good example. They were hitting us so frequently we couldn't make plays or get the puck moving. Hits can be extremely disruptive.This series is hard to judge because of the east and west not playing each other this year. The big weakness that everyone likes to point out with the Hawks is that they always get out hit. Hits are the most overrated statbecause the Hawks play very disciplined and refuse to take themselves out of a play just to lay someone out. The Bruins are very good at killing penalties. Problem is the Hawks PP fucking sucks so that is kind of wasted. Crawford has been consistent through the entire playoffs and the Hawks just beat the widely believed best Goaltender in the game. The Hawks are also deeper and have 4 legit lines that can score.
Should be fun and don't rule out some weird bounce or two that could change the series either way.
You say that like it's an issue. What's the problem?Games 2 and 3 only on NBCSN? Seriously? Fucking NBC, you suck...
Awesome, another 50 win season followed by playoff hilarity!
Nothing ever needs more Jack Edwards. Top 3 worst announcers in my book. Guy drives me nuts.stanley cup finals needs more jack edwards
What makes Jack amazing, is that he knows he's being a Troll. He knows his over the top exaggerations are going to get a response but it's what keeps him employed because either love him or hate him but everyone listens to him.Nothing ever needs more Jack Edwards.

I never listen to him. Anytime I was watching a game involving the B's on Center Ice or a national broadcast and they had the NESN feed with Edwards I would either find the other team's feed on Center Ice or mute it and find a radio feed to sync up with the action. He's been shit since he did soccer back in the day.What makes Jack amazing, is that he knows he's being a Troll.

That's funny because I think the Caps radio guy is the worst homer in all of sports. That whole "GOOD MORNING, GOOD AFTERNOON, GOOD NIGHT" crap is the worst call ever. I think I heard they moved on from him or maybe I am thinking of his predecessor.I never listen to him.
