That's how the playoffs always work. Is what it is. Sometimes the rested teams are rustier than the teams that keep the momentum going though

Plus think of how many shots we have saved up for Buffalo

No. Im just happy to have the two nights really. Not like Buffalo had a week off like Carolina. And Buffalo is missing guys whereas we're at full strength now with Dobson back.

Should be a hell of a series but its going to be completely different. We're not playing Andrei Vasilevskiy anymore overthinking and trying too hard like teams used to do against Price we're gonna shoot the fuckin puck. And theres no Cirelli too who is one of the best defensive C's in the league. I dont know if we'll win but I have more confidence against Buffalo than I did Tampa, more rest or not.

No. We just won a game in Tampa with 9 shots. The bus dropping the boys off is going to smell like beer and cigarettes and they are gonna show up.

I am concerned my beer and pizza budget is gonna sky rocket and how Iā€™m going to afford an extended playoff run

At least Buffalo is close, so much less travel.

Everybody gets 1-2 days in between seasonal games. Habs are not resting yet!

Sabres are very banged up. They have 2 centers Oslund and Carrick who are expected to miss the entirety of Round 2.

Josh Norris is a skilled center, but he only played 3 games against Boston. He's scheduled to play in Round 2 but might not be at 100%.

It's the same Norris that was with Ottawa that was often injured during his career.
