This is your open thread for the two Game 7s happening tonight. At 7 p.m. EDT, the Boston Bruins host the Toronto Maple Leaves, with the winner moving on to face YOUR Columbus Blue Jackets. After that, the San Jose Sharks host the Vegas Golden Knights for the right to face the upstart Colorado Avalanche. Both games are on NBCSN.
While we wait, I’d like to talk about something I’ve been tossing back and forth in my mind for the last week, and I’m sure many of you have as well.
