NHL Playoffs: Shark Attack

Written by

Timo Meier and Logan Couture dominated Saturday. Period. Speed kills and the Blues had no answer.
Take away Martin Jones's first five games (and his entire regular season) and he's a complete stud. Maybe he just needed the inspiration.

Passing the puck is far more efficient than carrying it. And faster. Right, Colton Parayko? Timo Meier's pick-pocket of him was Datsyukian.
Tuukka Rask for Conn Smythe. This is the best he has played in a long time.
Petr Mrazek didn't lose Game 1 for the Canes, but he didn't win it for them either. And he might need to.
Whose career will be judged the greatest when it's over -- Joe Pavelski or Brad Marchand? Interesting discussion.
Marcus Johansson's talent has never been doubted, just his health. No-one talks about him and Charlie Coyle, but they could be two of the savviest pick-ups at the trade deadline.
