We’re well into the conference finals, having now witnessed over a month’s worth of playoff performances. For some fans, now would be the time to celebrate the best of the best, and spend some time admiring the players who’ve elevated their games when it matters most.
For the other 99% of us, there’s this column. It’s playoff disappointment time.
As always, some ground rules™:
- We’re building a 21-man roster, with 12 forwards, six defensemen and three goalies, because we’ll need that extra guy. Beyond that, positions don’t matter. We’ll also have a coach and GM, because the guys in suits deserve some scrutiny too.
