Ours is small, usually only 5 people or so at meetings (of the 25 or so members). But those numbers can only be made smaller by a lack of punctuality!
I was disappointed how Edmonton was out of the gate in game 1, but I see what you are saying.
Haha well it’s different for you, sir!
I was first introduced to the passion of Oilers fans in Beaverlodge, Alberta in 2005. A night I’ll never forget. Got wasted in a (the?) bar with some drillers (I worked in the oil fields in AK at the time too so we bonded over that, and hockey).
We then left and smoked some non tobacco products. Later that night my GF at the time and I almost set our tent on fire cooking beefaroni on the sterno and I ended up drop kicking flaming propane canisters all over the campground. It was amazing. Good people.
Sounds a bit like a few of my college days camping trips...
Well game 3 has been fantastic, with 20 left to play.
Calgary's first line looks flat and directionless.
Mike Smith looks to be back in his old form.

Canes/Rangers was interesting. Despite the Canes dominating stats, Igor won the game (At even strength, the Hurricanes had 75 shot attempts that included 20 high danger scoring chances. The Rangers had 56 shot attempts and 11 high danger chances) . I'm sure they can do it again. The Canes are 6-0 at home in the playoffs.
I was working on the MGB, so I listened to the game in the garage, on XM radio. I love hockey radio.
Biddington gets knocked out of the game, I guess the Blues are toast.

If it was any other player that fell on him, I would just be sad for Binnington, but given that it was Nazim Kadri -twice suspended for playoff game violence- I'm a little more angry.
I also prefer hockey on the radio. The Blues guys are a great duo the last few years.
we will see. It was an incredibly reckless play.
Smith had to leave the game for a bit due to concussion protocol as well.
guess not
Report: Flames' Lucic will not face further discipline for hit on Oilers' Smith
The NHL will not issue further sanctions on Calgary Flames forward Milan Lucic, who received a five-minute major and a game misconduct for colliding with Edmonton Oilers goalie Mike Smith on Sunday, according to ESPN's Emilly Kaplan.
Lightning will be well-rested for the Rangers-Hurricanes winner. The challenge there is to not get rusty during the downtime. Colorado showed this by pouncing on the Blues in Game 1 after their post-Nashville sweep rest.
Joe Thornton must be frustrated beyond belief, poor guy.
And in the west, Blues are off to an early lead. We'll see how they fare without #50 in the crease.

Vasy is just amazing in the postseason. I think he has closed out 5 of the last 6 series in shutouts. I could be wrong, but I think he closed out every series last postseason with shutouts.
He made some phenomenal saves tonight.
