Nobody missed him in Leaf land, that is for sure.

Glad to see the Preds going to the Stanley Cup. Should be some great hockey with James Neal playing his old team....and yeah, I think Pens, unfortunately, are going to get by Ottawa.

Sucks Fiala and Johansen are out, but they, surprisingly, have some depth.

GM 7 all depends on Craig Anderson.

Congrats to the Preds... I'll be rooting for the Penguins if they can knock of the Senators, if Ottawa wins then I'll pull for the Predators.

You're a 100% right, and being as it is game 7, anything can happen now.
What I wrote yesterday was before the game, and I honestly didn't see Ottawa coming out on top like they did.
I really thoughts the Pens were going to put it to them something like they did the previous game, but Ottawa played hard and deserved the win.
I really want Ottawa to win, and now, like I mentioned, with it being game 7, they have as good as chance as the Pens do.

THANK GOD the Pens won because Sens vs. Preds would have been just AWFUL! Sens would just expect Craig Anderson to keep them in the game night after night; in other words, it would be the same sh*t all over again. Now the best team in the East will be taking on the best team in the West and it will be a very exciting series to watch!

never had a doubt pens would pull it out, even going into OT where anything could happen. the hockey god would not have let that happen and the pens were way more talented.

i thought wash was better than the pens the last 2 years but with their luck you know how that goes. i don't really like the pens, a wash/edm matchup with ovechkin/mcdavid would've been nice but i knew it was most likely gonna be preds/penguins. some really good game 7s this year that a bounce here or there could've rewritten nhl's history.

Anything could have happened last night, especially with O.T. thrown in the mix.

Obviously, I am disappointed Ottawa didn't move on even though I never expected them to, but I am looking forward to seen the Preds and Pens series with, hopefully, the Preds winning their first ever Stanley Cup.
