Wow, Tampa swept, Penguins crushed, the only game going to form seems to be Bruins v Leafs. Even St.Louie gave The Jets a bit of a scare in 1st 2 games.

I agree, Stamkas is solid. .And I would have swapped O`Reilly for Cucherov .... But not Tarsasenko, he is a one man team..

[Fraggy]

Tavares is really good and Matthews will step up a level once play offs start. But would swap The Leafs #91 for Tampa's #91

[Shania]

Like you have said on some occations they haven`t won since 1967, but Tavares ie. looks the part more and more. Make no mistake about it: Tampa seem to have the best team overall. Their players are so fast and their interplay immensly slick-like when it clicks. QPR should have watched their matches...

[Fraggy]

Building being the key word.
They have a chance at getting past Boston as long as they don't try to match them physically and use speed instead.
However, I can't see anyone beating Tampa, they have been outstanding this season.

[Shania]

Thanks, Fraggy. But Nashville wouldn`t have been much better to be fair. Not sure how Toronto will do, but I feel that they are building a quite good tournament team.

[Fraggy]

Jets on Wednesday will be tough, but home ice advantage should help.

Good luck

[Shania]

It really is!

[Fraggy]

LOL, yes there are quite a few similarities

[Shania]

And even without Zuccarello.....The Blues tend to switch-off far too often. A bit like QPR, in fact...

[Fraggy]

Fully agree, Tampa have had an outstanding season so far.
Surprised NYR beat the Blues last night though.

[Shania]

Yes, They did. But I can`t see them going all the way. The have beaten Tampa twice this season, but like you, I would think they will win the play-offs. Toronto can do it, but Tampa is probably the better team of them two.

[Fraggy]

Blues really turned their season around. Can see them making the conference finals.
As much as I want to see The Leafs get their first Stanley Cup since 67, I think Tampa is the team to watch.

[Shania]

Ok. Thanks!! ^^ I will look it up.

If you get a chance to watch a reply of last nights game, its worth it just for the noise level.
