(1/) You make some interesting predictions, Espen. I certainly hope that a team from #Canada
(particularly other than a #Habs team that has won 24 #stanleycup
|s [10 of them since the #leafs last won such a
]) manages to in 2020 put to an end such a trophy-winning #drought https://twitter.com/espenstrand/status/1290288856026107905



(2/) that has now persisted for over 20 years (26 as of the end of the #StanleyCupPlayoffs, but 29 if the #Habs are excluded). I now will try to address your predictions:
“ #letsgooilers
and #flames
will advace!”
The @NHLFlames, between the #Alberta teams, managed to
“ #letsgooilers


The @NHLFlames, between the #Alberta teams, managed to
(3/) convincingly win #Game1 of the relevant conference #8thfinal; the #Oilers, @ 1 point during the same game of their 8th final, almost got manhandled by contrast and would end up losing by two goals.
#gohabsgo
will get the #1 pick!
My initial impression of the
#gohabsgo

My initial impression of the
(4/) #Habs- #LetsgoPens
series was one of a near-sweep by the @penguins
of the #GoHabsGo
crew. Although that outcome may still happen, the Habs have #momentum, via a #game1 win, that the #Leafs ( #shutout by #Korpisalo
& the #CBJ
over the weekend) & #Canucks
(also shut out






(5/) but by #Stalock
& the #mnwild
) do not yet have and may not even get even during #game2.
#oilers go out in the conference finals vs. the #avs!
I would like to believe that the Oilers will even make it to the #westernconference final but I still have my doubts

(6/) because of how #atrocious #defence & a lack of timely scoring in #game1 of that conference #8thfinal doomed their chances to win a rather crucial game. The #NHLJets in the 2018 #StanleyCupPlayoffs appeared in a conference final although no team from #Canada
became a

(7/) conference #semifinal|ist last year ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NHL_franchise_post-season_droughts#Canadian_droughts). 2011 was the last year during which a Canadian @NHL team appeared in a #StanleyCup
final.
