Ah the playoffs. Anything after the first round is gravy. The Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadiens were both the lower-ranked seed going into round one as the implied underdog. Now, the Habs won in the most hilarious fashion and only finished their first round series on Monday. The Jets are rested and ready for games. We shall see if rest or having a steady rhythm from playing more recently works better tonight.
Until then, I leave you with the infinite wisdom of Stephen A. Smith:
βJust failures. On an epic level. Every year.β
