Stanley Cup Playoffs

A preview? :-)

Forget March Madness!

It is time for the Stanley Cup playoffs!

The ultimate in simulated medieval combat breaks loose in a couple of days!  Kind of like the Battle on the Ice in 1242 between the Russians and Teutonic Knights. My Pittsburgh Penguins won in 2016 and 2017 and come up a little short in 2018, but it was a great run. Why not three out of four?

The Penguins have the Islanders up next and that has an old-school 1980s feel to it. Hopefully not too much of that feels since the Penguins stank up the place back then.

Having to play four best of seven series to win the whole thing precludes "they got lucky" debates.  Whoever wins the Cup definitely earns it!

The first round usually has "sacrificial lambs",but in a best of seven, anything can happen.  It will be an upward climb, so strap in, its going to be like a whole new season.
