Neither team is going to be an easy out. It’s always going to be scoring that decides (duh!), but I think the importance of no stupid penalties (stop giving refs a way to muck up a game), winning face offs, making the 2nd save, focus on the game in front of you and patience will be the key elements. I like the machine like focus, our depth and our team— top to bottom.

Probably figures if they beat “his” Avs so easily, then they’re gonna roll Carolina. More than a few Canadian-centric writers and presenters are thinking similar thoughts about Carolina.
In truth, I’m not sure we’ve ever learned less about a pair of Finalists in the Conference Finals than this year’s duo. After they couldn’t figure out how to win Game 1, Colorado was just kind of done. And they definitely were done after they blew that lead in Game 3. On the other side, Montreal was never really in the series with Carolina other than a great rust off of 2026.

Another piece in The Athletic today by Pierre LeBrun involved his surveys of 49 coaches and team executives. Overall, the picks went 27-22 in favor of Vegas, but there was a big divide between the groups. The coaches went 16-13 for the Canes; the execs went 14-6 for the Knights.
