Back north (Minnesota is in fact the farthest north team left in our playoffs) for game 6 and Tyler Seguin tried to quiet the crowd early on, scoring less than a minute into the game. Evan Veirling got the fans loud again less than two minutes later, but former Conservative PM Stephen Harper did what he does best, crushing the dreams of thousands, scoring five and a half minutes in.

There were no goals for the next ~23 minutes, but Alex Turcotte's 8th of the playoffs evened things midway through the second, leading to what promised to be an exciting third period.

A dumb penalty by Mark Jankowski just 8 seconds into the third allowed Nico Hischier to make it 3-2, then Alexis Lafrenière added some insurance. Tyler Seguin made the fans nervous, but Hischier re-established the two goal lead, before Lafrenière iced it with his 8th, continuing the Alex fight for the playoff scoring lead.

The series returns to Nashville (yes I fixed the schedule) for game seven on Sunday.

Alex and Alexis 5eva.

Two game sevens ought to give these kids some LE, but alas.
