Apr 08th 2012

Apr 09th 2012
9
                     i'll say this
Apr 09th 2012

So we all know Tim Thomas is a tea party asshole
Apr 10th 2012
17
Thomas not going to the white house still kinda bothers me...
Apr 10th 2012
19
what bothers me is when he claimed it wasn't political
Apr 10th 2012
20
      it wasn't about politics, it was about race
Apr 13th 2012
88
Barry's a Hawks fan
Apr 10th 2012

Kings better take advantage tonight... DANIEL SEDIN OUT!
Apr 11th 2012
30
Won't matter if they can't score
Apr 11th 2012
32
the Canucks went 8-1 with Sedin out this season
Apr 11th 2012
33
It doesn't matter that Sedin is out really
Apr 11th 2012

Preds - Red Wings
Apr 11th 2012
31
Very intersting series
Apr 11th 2012
44
it would probably get overlooked anyway, especially since nsh leads
Apr 12th 2012
50
watching Preds hockey
Apr 12th 2012

Apr 13th 2012
102
Did not see Philly coming back and taking that
Apr 11th 2012
34

Apr 11th 2012
36
I knew they would tie it but thought they'd run out of gas and lose
Apr 11th 2012
39
Schenn is a beast
Apr 12th 2012
54
      good deal for both sides

Awful awful. Should be 10 games at least.
Apr 12th 2012
53
      10 games at least?
Apr 12th 2012
56
      does the league care about concussions or not?
Apr 12th 2012
57
           he'll get one game, and i'll agree with it
Apr 12th 2012
59
                There's no logic
Apr 12th 2012
60
                     it's essentially a fight move, not a hockey move
Apr 12th 2012
61
                          what kind of "move" it is? lol.
Apr 12th 2012
62
                               it would be a three-to-five in the regular season
Apr 12th 2012

Apr 12th 2012
70
I was thinking about that
Apr 12th 2012
71
      of course they looked good...
Apr 12th 2012
72
           there were reports of Sedin being at a medical center today
Apr 12th 2012
73
           i thought their forwards were pretty weak
Apr 13th 2012
85
                confirmed out for game 2...
Apr 13th 2012
98
                     if the Kings go up 2-0

Apr 13th 2012
95

Apr 12th 2012
75
Game 1: better than I expected

Apr 13th 2012
87
Cant believe we needed OT to win that game
Apr 12th 2012
77

Apr 13th 2012
100
                     just last night he got caught not hustling...
Apr 13th 2012
103
                          yeah his level of competitiveness has taken a big step back
Apr 13th 2012
114
Just so I'm understanding this...
Apr 13th 2012
104
I am blown away by that decision
Apr 13th 2012
105

An intriguing match up to say the least. I expect a lot of hitting.

Bruins are favored, obviously. But one day the Caps will put their shit together.

One day.

In response to Reply # 4


  

          

They get scoring from all over.

Caps have some tough decisions to make every night for who to scratch.

Jay Beagle, Knuble, Ward, Halpern, Aucoin

Plus Erskine & Scultz on D

Also we might be starting our third string goal tender. I love Holtby, but he's very inexperienced.

6. "scratching Erskine & Schultz is not a very tough decision"
In response to Reply # 5


  

          

Those guys shouldn't play a minute.

Scratching Aucoin shouldn't be tough, but Hunts seems to like him, even on the PP. The question is, if Aucoin plays, who of Ward, Knuble, Halpie sit. Ward looked good against NYR yesterday so I bet he gets the nod in Game 1.

He's a pretty good passer...probably the fourth or so best natural passer on the team. But he's way too easy to knock off the puck. Way too easy.

but not against Vancouver. We do not play them well at all. But we have every on healthy. Carter should be back. We had good momentum going into the playoffs if you dont count the last 2 games of the season. Prepared for the worst but hoping for the best.

14. "I actually think LA will win this series..."
In response to Reply # 8


  

          

In my mind, LA matches up really well with the Canucks... Plus, the Kings remember the series 2 years ago... Time to get some revenge...


Whats up with Gagne?? He still injured??

42. "yeah gagne is not coming back"
In response to Reply # 14


  

          

he's basically been a favored spectator since he went down. he's in the same spot as latendresse, just hoping he can come back next year. i've seen him around a little but he's not doing much of anything with the team. i get the feeling like he and sutter barely know each other.

196. "la tendresse = tenderness"
In response to Reply # 192


  

          

the Otis Redding 'try a little...' kind of tenderness, too, not the tenderness that can come from an injury

so, in a macho sport like hockey, it's a funny last name

im not a fan of the 2003-current color scheme and logo. not sure why both the DBacks and Coyotes went from their original, 'that makes no sense' color schemes to just another off-red generic.

when i was younger and they played at America West Arena (RIP) those games were so fun to go to. people howling the entire game, but the team wasnt that good.

hockey games live are pretty damn near unbeatable. went to a game a few years ago at the new jobing.com arena and we beat the Sharks 8-2, and there were so many fights. pure entertainment.

JK, I am kind of torn on them, I wish they were playing a team I hated, then they'd be easy to root for. I'd love to see them go real deep but I feel like they'd be one of those teams that did so much on effort and luck that they'd fizzle out in the Final. They kind of remind me of Anaheim in 2003 when I think of them as a Finalist.

They put together a nice year. Smith obviously worked out famously. I was a pretty big fan of his. I always thought he had the makings of a good goalie but obviously his health was a question mark and no one could have pictured him getting this hot.

They have a nice mix of players, I have always really liked Yandle and Hanzal. Hanzal is a legit shutdown guy. I wonder if Doan will be back next year. If night I bet he signs with Winnipeg, that'd be kind of sweet to, in a weird way, keep him in the franchise for his whole career.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

38. "RE: Picks"
In response to Reply # 29


  

          

NYR beats OTT in 5
BOS beats WAS in 5
NJ beats FLA in 6
PHI beats PIT in 7

It's kind of hard to look at the later rounds. Part of me wants to take the Pens to win it all but they have their hands full with Philly. Neither team seems like a great bet to advance beyond what will be a brutal series but maybe. Flyers match up really poorly with the Rangers if they have to play them. If things go as predicted above, I think the winner of the Bos-Phi series will win the conference.


In the West well I already have these on record places so I cannot change them, right?

Canucks over Kings in 6
Blues over Sharks in 7
Chicago over Coyotes in 7
Preds over Wings in 6

I see you went with the reverse jinx pick on SJ. They are a weird one, kind of like Philly I think that even though they will be beat up after this series, they have a great chance to go deep if they win. Sometimes they look unbeatable but usually they just wobble around aimlessly. I haven't seen too many teams as inconsistent as they've been.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

41. "It doesn't matter that Sedin is out really"
In response to Reply # 30


  

          

As Rob pointed out, they won without him. I didn't expect him back for either of the games in Vancouver and honestly my (mostly random) prediction of a Game 3 return isn't looking so hot either. Tried to skate today, had symptoms, left the ice. That doesn't sound like an imminent return. They have a weird schedule with some extra days off, that may not even matter.

Kings need two guys to get it going and they win this series, Doughty and Richards. Both have been very good playoff performers in the past, neither really soared into the postseason though. If both guys get it going, they win, those are their dynamic guys. Everyone else, even Kopitar, is more the steady type.

Vancouver does a lot of things well and they have versatility if their game plan doesn't work. Even though a lot of the faces have changed, the matchup is pretty similar to the last time these two teams met.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

a win right out the gate. Boy that feels good. shit was not easy though. We played great but Luongo was lights out for those first 2 periods. That skate pass by Carter and Richards annihilating Burrows in the neutral zone at the end were fantastic. Its good to see the boys coming out to play today. Richards looked great. Carter did well, he was skating a bit slow though. Quick performed. great start to the series. Father inlaw asked for tickets to Sundays game. Would be nice to get to my first playoff game *crosses fingers*

It is a shame the NHL schedule makers dropped the ball so bad and put both the 4/5 seed matchups at essentially the same time every game through the series, cause this Pred/Wing series is going to be awesome but get overlooked cause of the Philly/Pittsburgh series

Off to the arena, ready to rock

In response to Reply # 31


  

          

should be a great series though, looked in on it where i could and watched the end.

i wonder what will happen with weber. my gut feeling is one-game ban but the discipline standards are such a moving target that i wouldn't be surprised by anything from 0 to 3.

it's a weird thing because his team had to pay NO price for it during the game, since it happened literally at the horn. had it been mid-game, i'd lean toward no suspension, as it is, eh, lots of talk, kind of a cheap play with the head involved, yeah, probably a game.

bob mckenzie said he would suspect byron bitz will get a call before weber. that would really confirm that there is one standard for stars and one much harsher standard for role players.

They played so goddamn flat in the first period that things couldn't get any worse, add to that some bounces they didn't get that were bound to even out.

Of course it was Danny Babyface Edmonds, er, Briere with two big ones. He is one of the best playoff performers and has basically justified his grotesque contract by 1) playing in the playoffs and 2) mentoring a lot of the kids.

It was also fitting that Schenn and Voracek got theirs, too, they were the only guys that came to play early. Schenn is starting to really throw the body, which means he's around the puck. He will be a good'un, we won that trade big time and I loved Richards.

The other thing that gave me some confidence is watching Pittsburgh lately. They have played well overall but have some issues letting up and getting a little soft in their own end. That's maybe one thing that could round out a team that's already good enough to win it all, a real tough stay at home guy who doesn't play the score. They had them on their first run (Scuderi, Gill).

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I love, love, love the way that kid plays. So solid in all areas, plus that mean streak. And of course Simmonds is awesome.

BUT

I think the Kings are happy with the deal too. Richards played great last night.

that said, i think schenn has a good chance to develop into an elite player, a true no. 1 center and simmonds was basically a 25-30-goal throw-in then.

is there a more intentional attempt to concuss a guy than grabbing his head with both hands and slamming it into the glass?

It was a suspendable offense, but 10 games is ludicrous.

Also, what's the beef with Shanahan? I think he's done an admirable job in what is probably the most difficult positions in professional sports. Yeah, we won't agree on every single one of his decisions, but I respect the transparency.

In response to Reply # 59


  

          

to giving fewer games for a naked head slam than for a hit that results in someone's head hitting the boards.

Boarding Ovechkin-style is 3 games or whatever but skipping past the hit part and just going straight for the intent to injure is fewer games?

That makes no sense.

I think he's wildly inconsistent. A lot of people agree with me. Next question.

Certainly dirty, certainly a penalty, but I take it you're against fighting as well? should every fight be suspendable by 10 games?

The other thing is that the league has already said—and I agree with this—that suspensions will be more conservative in the postseason.

Tell me where Shanahan has been "wildly inconsistent." See, that's where I have the problem. I hear this all the time with little to back it up. LOLZ at "a lot of people agree with me" as an end to an argument.

62. "what kind of "move" it is? lol."
In response to Reply # 61


  

          

why are head shots and boarding plays suspendable offenses?

b/c they're dangerous and the league is getting more serious about head injuries.

so a guy gives up the pretense of a hockey play and goes straight for the "smash the head into the glass" and it's FEWER games?

No logic to that.

In response to Reply # 64


  

          

i said on twitter yesterday that i didn't expect any suspension as soon as it happened.

number one, it's not NEARLY as severe as its being made out to be by some. the only thing that gave me pause that he'd be suspended was the timing. had it happened in the second period, they would have accessed him probably two separate roughing minors or something and left it at that. at the end of the game, his team sustained no real loss from the call.

i figured it would be a fine, although i think 2,500 bucks is nothing for a guy who makes $7.5M. i would have hit him with a big fine.

anymore it seems like a weird eye for an eye thing, too. if the guy isnt injured, it is not nearly as big a deal. there's also two standards of course, for role players and stars. just ask byron bitz about these developments, who probably just deserved a major penalty but wound up with two games.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

In response to Reply # 89


  

          

They couldn't hit him with anything higher per the current CBA, which will be a whole other issue this offseason.

He should have gotten at least one game if I am being honest. Reactionary or not, it was malicious and 100% not a "hockey play".

That being said, thank God he didn't with Hal Gill out yet again tonight.

In response to Reply # 72


  

          

defense had maybe an average game, luongo played well ... i dunno, they were flustered to me. took a lot of penalties. at the end there, burrows gets blown up on a clean hit and he's wasting his time chirping and retaliating. just whiffs retrieving the puck for what would have been their last chance to tie the game. they got to edler, too.

brown and richards are clean hitters who agitate in a way dirtier players could only dream of. richards was by far the best player on the ice for either team.

i think la's unraveling will come at home, pretty much how they do things in the playoffs.

daniel being out wasn't that striking except on the power play. sounds like his bell is still ringing, at this point i think out indefinitely.

you look at the kings at home in the playoffs the last two years and even in the regular season (that awful january homestand last year, end of 2011, etc) and i wouldn't be overly confident.

not saying it's a lock but i think vancouver could go down 0-2 and still win the series.

the kings havent just lost at home, they have had some terrible losses with huge blown leads at home.

He usually flanks a brilliant game with a stinker and a mediocre one. He's been painfully inconsistent although he does seem to be one of those competition goalies. Maybe it's the European style, all the short tournaments and shit like that.

Immediately following Havlat's PPG in the 2nd period, the Blues organ player started playing "Fuck You" by Cee Lo... I found it pretty funny... Just wondering if anyone else caught that...


Also, anyone else have any other stories of organ players playing "funny" songs after the road team scores??

In response to Reply # 76


  

          

holtby was obviously feeling it and i thought they did a pretty good job on defense overall. they were outshot pretty handily but it could have been a lot worse. i don't know the numbers but they seemed to be blocking a good number of shots.

that's tough, could have had a big road win, came away with nothing.

Almost lucky to get to OT, didnt play great in it.

Nice game from Hanzal, he got robbed early and made a strong play to get his hands free for the winner. he's a funky player, i really like watching him. very gutsy, kind of reminds me of Handzus as a smart big guy who does all the dirty work and detail stuff.

Chicago will be OK they just can't wait too long here. Crawford played a decent game, that was the biggest concern in my mind with them.

Cuz Martin fuckin Havlat does the damn thing when it counts...

Blues dominated most of this game and completely dominated the 1st OT, but in the end the Sharks didn't panic, put themselves in a position to win the game and that's what they did... Shoutout to Logan Couture with the pick of the year...

Game 2 should be really interesting... I wonder if St. Louis will play really physical and maybe risk taking a couple dumb penalties... Or will they play a little back, with a little more respect for the Sharks... They should play exactly how they did in game 1 because they outplayed the Sharks, but I doubt they will...

Game 2 is gonna be intense...



GO SHARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In response to Reply # 83


  

          

Still a huge win for Sharks, very tough to win in that building.

That was pretty much how the Blues do it. Steen had his hands going tonight, obviously Berglund, too. To me the key guys in the series are Andy McDonald and Chris Stewart. Stewart is a scorer, I don't get why he can't find any rhythm. McDonald was a stud whenever he was in the lineup, he played a pretty strong game tonight.

Sharks could take the series but they need to handle their business at home, I can't see another win in St Louis.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

We can slam Weber's head into the glass tonight with no repercussion?

That's the green light given by the league? Excellent! Fuck potentially causing concussions! You only can get concussions from an illegal check to the head.

There's absolutely no chance Wings move on this round if the league is going to let Nashville use the Anaheim strategy of cheap shots.

Go Wings.

121. "intent vs effect is the elephant in the room"
In response to Reply # 105


  

          

if i were a player, any time i was stung i would go down the tunnel. that influences an official's decision big time IMO. it has to be REALLY flagrant (thinking about Downie running Doughty last year) to get a major and not have the guy hurt. Conversely a garden-variety minor that causes an injury at least gives them pause to call a major.

I was trying to get to the heart of that issue last year when Rome was suspended for his hit on Horton but Murphy gave conflicting statements (that an injury played a factor but that the severity was not known when they made a decision, which was obviously not true) and Shanahan said that both factors have always played a role, basically avoiding the question of how the two factors would play under him. Which, honestly, made a lot of sense not to answer directly since he just took the job.

Anyway, bottom line is that I think we will see a lot of theatrics unless there is a shift back to intent. That's also how it should be, there are times when luck has it that a guy doesn't get injured but it was still an extremely risky play worthy of more than just a two-minute minor.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Yeah you pretty much saw right, they were spotted three and two-goal leads. Just think about the volume of scoring in hockey, goals are pretty similar to touchdowns in football. Imagine a team blowing 21-0 and 21-7 leads two Sundays in a row.

The 3-1 comeback was actually more impressive IMO because the Pens didn't play as conservatively, deep and soft on defense. This was a more powerful effort from Philly, the other one was more taking what they could get. Shorthanded goals up the ass, love that kind of effort.

I didn't feel as good about the Flyers comeback this time BUT Giroux showed me something early. He almost saved a goal early and just had severe jump. Dude had the game of his life and he has had some beauties.

Couturier is such a warrior, no offense to any guys taken above him but how he went ANY lower than fourth in this year's draft was mystifying. I see this group with him, Schenn and Giroux (among others) and it's pretty nice to think about the future.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

On one hand, Kings haven't been a great home team and special teams trends can reverse quickly.

On the other, there is a real disjuncture with Vancouver, power play went from bad to worse, no Daniel and they have to think about a goalie change just to shake up the team. that should not be. they are a veteran team and luongo has played pretty well (very well in game 1, adequately at least in game 2).

I dunno, last year they pushed themselves up against the wall in the first round, too, and they trailed the year before. Still, there was never a heir of panic about them. You can see the concern and frustration on guys' faces now.

And, of course, the Kings are playing well. Quick had an even better game than his numbers suggested, PK is playing its part on the Canucks' struggles (and scoring tonight, too) and they're probably going to have at least one scoring line going strong every night.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Not mad at Hitchcock at all....

"Blues changes: St. Louis will make three changes to its lineup from Game 1. In are forwards Matt D’Agostini and B.J. Crombeen, and defenseman Carlo Colaiacovo. Chris Stewart, Ryan Reaves and Kent Huskins will sit." -Kevin Kurz CSN

135. "all good moves by Hitch..."
In response to Reply # 134


          

I've already expressed my unhappiness with Stewart's lazy, slow to engage play from the other night. Also, Huskins looked super suspect and his puck handling was shaky. We got an unfavorable matchup when the Havlat goal happened. We kept getting our 2 and 3 lines matched up with their 1 line. Then Hitch started having the 1 line guys see extra time on other lines cuz the 2 and 3's were playing like shit. Hope these adjustments pan out.

He had a bad game the other night and can be inconsistent, but that dude is a goal scorer... Glad he's not in...

In response to Reply # 136


          

that's whats so frustrating about his play. Like Concrete said, he was BALLING right after the trade. Now, though, dude just looks disinterested a lot. Maybe this will wake him up. With David Backes (our leading goal-scorer in the reg. season) assigned to stop Joe Thornton, we could REALLY use the good Chris Stewart.

i think steen is a key player tonight, needs to his legs moving and his hands free. thought he played a decent game one. they're not going to get any one guy carrying them offensively for a series but they need individual guys to have big individual games along the way.

I listened to some on the radio at work.. Sounds like it was pretty competitive, but the Sharks fucked up letting your 4th line piss off our 1st line in the 2nd period... Pavelski fighting and Marleau taking a roughing penalty against 2 guys who weren't even in game 1 (wait, did Russell play in game 1??)... Pretty sure Backes scored within the 5 minutes Pavs was in the box...


Monday is a new day... The Tank is gonna be fuckin crazy...

Crosby knocking the glove away from the Flyer was hilarious.

In no other sport is there so much shit talking, shoving, pop shots and actual punches thrown in a game. But in the playoffs the goons step it up to protect their stars and that always makes for a great game.

I'm not crying at all, infact I'm embarrassed of the way the Pens played and got so dirty, no rational Penguins fan will say anything else.

But the idea of the Flyers and their fans getting so riled up over a team playing dirty is the laughable part I referenced.

One day does not a history make

*Edit* But I guess ignoring history is kind of the Flyers things. Why else would they act like Disco wasn't the cool last time they won a championship? It has always been about let's celebrate today like it is worth a cup and forget everything else from the past every time something good happens for the Flyers

Fight about it

In response to Reply # 191


  

          

The Flyers are a goon-less team, basically, I guess Rinaldo but he's been on good behavior. They all have been, really, they have let Pittsburgh get butt hurt and take it to them.

Hartnell is no angel and Simmer can fight but those guys are also 20+ goal scorers, these guys are fast and skilled throughout the lineup. They are about as much the Broad Street Bullies as Cincinnati is the Big Red Machine

I didn't think as much of the Asham hit as many people did but Neal's antics were really deplorable (one game!?!) and Crosby showed why he does not belong in the same breath as the all-time greats there, the real class players and leaders like Sakic, 99, 66, et al.

Overall, what the Flyers did was standard practice for any team. What the Pens did was way above and beyond and totally gutless. I haven't seen a team melt down like that in years, in 04 maybe Calgary did it for a game or two and St Louis with Pronger throwing that tantrum. Even then, it wasn't that obvious or widespread.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

200. "observing history's what the Flyers & the fans have always done too much"
In response to Reply # 189


  

          

hence why we have the same owner, same brass from the 70s, same dusty trophies, same glaring weaknesses in roster assembly (possibly exempting this current one), same loyalist-season-ticketholders-with-the-same-blinders-on, etc.

if you wanna cherry-pick some Strawman Flyer Fan citing sportsmanship/decorum while rooting for a franchise whose team/city has embraced their inner-thug for going on forty fucking years now then have fun, it simply means that much like your hair-pulling heroes y'all have nothing else left.

And I have little to no faith in the Flyers winning a Cup this year since, well, they've yet to do it since I've been here breathing.

What I do have faith in is y'all completing the Cup Favorite FLOP here real soon, so all you furious motherfuckas can enjoy the long trip across 22 through the shittiest parts of PA complaining about Flyer fans while we get ready for the next series.

204. "We have plenty left"
In response to Reply # 200


  

          

And when we run out we will just fill one of our 3 cups from a relevant era up and continue enjoying what we have.

What Flyers fans have, is a sense that winning a first round series against your rivals makes everything else ok.

We'll take the L and we will move on, we will come back next year with just as good of a team, maybe the same coach, and we will be cup favorites again, and again, and again. But unlike any Philly teams (and bare in mind I'm an Eagles fan) we will cash in on that every so often.

That's plenty for me, I'll hop right back on the turnpike, drive home upset the season ended, and remember that all that really matters in the end is championships, of which I can say I saw 3 at an age worth remembering. All while the Flyers and their fans continue to try to find whatever measuring stick they can to act like they have a leg to stand on during any type of argument about success.

I hope when you are 60 years old you tell your grandkids about the time your hockey team won a first round series and you saw it live!

218. "Typical Philly fan, has no where to go but to pick on the Pirates"
In response to Reply # 208


  

          

It's like the elementary school bully mentality.

You literally have no valid argument in any other sport, so let's somehow relate it to the 1 sport that Philly has been more successful in over the last 20 years (but way less in history still).

Every jackass Philadelphian who comes into Pittsburgh ends up saying the same thing...well how about those Pirates. You could say our skyline is better and you'd respond...well how about those Pirates.

Disco was the shit last time the Flyers won which is relevant since we are talking about hockey...well how about those Pirates?

I'd give up the first round for 8 years straight to enjoy the championship success I have seen my team have...congrats again on going further but still ending the season sad.

In response to Reply # 204


  

          

and we might be on our way back this year. it's going to be tough to match up with boston, i won't lie, but it's not impossible.

talking about the future, uh, dude have you seen this flyers lineup? seven rookies as regulars, two of whom are going to be f'ing all-stars. our pegged right-hand man to claude has been out, he'll be back or get traded for value. stay reloading on defense.

flyers will be fine, thanks for your concern, and we don't need a decade of tanking and a lockout to make us competitive, we are in it EVERY year.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

202. "again WHO is saying otherwise!?! We're the fucking Broad Street Bullies"
In response to Reply # 195


  

          

that's our legacy & we take pride in it, it's a legacy the rest of y'all loved when we kicked the shit out of the Soviets but otherwise we understand nobody riding with us.

This non-event of commentary on stray-shit-talking in a heated playoff series is the last refuge of some sucking-and-chucking-ass-scoundrels.

What's funny is the Pens trying to play like we built our franchise (and by extension, in some part the league's) reputation on over the years.

The problem is they're not good at it & so they just come off looking frustrated, stupid & scared.

That's funny as fuck to me.

They'll have a whole offseason to talk about what soon will be in our rearview mirror.

They would treat a 1-0 OT win on the first day of the season like a parade was about to happen.

223. "LOL @ you acting like the Pens have some huge historical advantage"
In response to Reply # 217


  

          

If the Flyers win a Cup next, that would tie them all time with the Penguins lofty three Cups all-time.

They've also never been 'lucky' enough to have sucked so badly for long enough to land two generational #1 picks or neeeded said player to save the sport in their city once let alone twice.

The Flyers basically win 60% of their games and make the Cup Finals every 4 to 5 years, who knows, eventually they might win another which would bring them to a tie with the Penguins to go along with the advantages they already possess in every other category of team success.

I'm happy the Penguins got to keep their hockey team since less than a decade ago they were once again on the brink with a team drawing less people than Philly was drawing for their minor league hockey team they had playing across the street (another example of how we tend to support this sport better than any city in the United States dating back to the Nixon Administration).

I hope Sidney Crosby can actually play a full season again without getting his brains scrambled because he's great for the league & we know that y'all won't be able to survive that kind of loss as well as a franchise like the Flyers could.

So try to take this L like a man & keep it moving, like one of our teams will be doing in this tournament.

Pretending getting embarrassed in the first round when you were supposedly a Cup favorite while two of your franchise's former heroes (both of whom spurned offers from y'all to go to Philly just this past offseason) are on the other side of that handshake line doesn't ruffle your feathers just makes you look petty.

It's why you don't hear me arguing vs the Phillies about how good the pirates were in the 70s

I have seen with my own eyes at an age I can remember watching and celebrating 3 stanley cups.

You have done that 0 times

Congrats to your father who is close to seeing as many cups as I have.

My feathers are ruffled, Pens fans are embarrassed, beccause at the end of the day, we expect to win championships and not doing so is a disappointment whether it is the first round or the finals. You however use things like advancing further in a specific year, or losing in the championship every 4 or 5 years (despite it actually being 13 between your last 2 trips and much more than 4 or 5 between the previous two, so basically a totally made up stat) as a success measure.

so there's that.

Hopefully you can garner some enjoyment out of a Flyers playoff exit rather than a Penguins playoff win, since one of those things is going to be still in play beyond this week.

Whatever you need to respond with to make you feel accomplished congrats.

We can argue all day and in the end I've seen more success from my team in the sport we are discussing than you have from your team.

You can make up stats, ignore history when its convenient but bring it up when its convenient, harp on a 1st round win that I've already conceded is an embarrassing loss for a team that expects to win every year, fall back on things like what I can only assume was Villanova winning the chip in the 80s when you talk about seeing lots of championships, cite certain date parameters you want your argument to be in or whatever else you want to do. I'll be mad about this year but be ready to watch them win it all again next year, while you still rock this jersey.

But I've also said when you are accustomed to winning championships you know some L's have to come and you can't make everything about one bad L.

Where as when you never win you will find any W and treat it like it's the triple crown.

Guess we both proved our points.

In the '2012 NHL Playoffs Post' between our respective teams, *this* is the L that you needed to just suck up but instead you chose to make it about some StrawmanFlyerFan bullshit.

That's the only reason you even got a reply out of me, glad we straightened that out & now we can both enjoy putting you out of your misery.

In response to Reply # 228


  

          

Hence where the 4 to 5 estimate came from.

I guess my numbers were off as well in that it's 59% not 60% on the winning percentage.

Sorry about that.

But I'm pretty sure my calculations are correct when I say '1 Playoff Potential Sweep=You Crying/Crunching Counter Numbers While Counting Ls in this series'.

We're better than you currently, we've been in a Cup Final more recently, hopefully they don't win one or you'll really have no sidebar arguments left to shake out.

I don't think they will but 'like lotto, you gotta be in it to win it.'(c)Erick Sermon so for the purposes of this post I'd rather be on my side of the fence.

You were likely thinking it'd be the other way about 7 periods of play ago last Wednesday night.

Damn.......'It was all good just a week ago'(c)S.Carter/T.Shaw

Just like you want to shape the Pens argument and say only 1 cup since the first George Bush, yet while ignoring the 2 in the 90s (still a relevant era in sports) that is still one more than you have since whoever the fuck was President back before either of us were born. You can look it up yourself...ummm ok

227. "lmao, guess who's the one losing in here?"
In response to Reply # 216


  

          

You trying to talk Pittsburgh titles while not being a Steeler fan?

I've considered my life pretty short on titles but yet I've been alive for as many Philly titles as y'all have over there without the football team.

We're beating the shit out of y'all in this series, that's the facts of the matter, I'm not celebrating so much as casually pointing it out.

I don't celebrate first-round wins for the Flyers, we win the first round seemingly every year & I've seen this team lose five finals since I've started paying attention which is why I don't talk shit about them in title terms or get excited about small victories like this because I've seen this movie before.

But that does give me carte-blanche to talk shit to a cat whose more desperate than their tress-tugging turkeys they're rooting for in this thread.

Maybe you should ditch the Eagles, shit if I wasn't from there I might have done so a long time ago.

But lemme get this straight......you're a Pittsburgh guy who gets to watch the Pirates lose, the Panthers lose, has no NBA team, has to watch his Steeler Fan friends celebrate while the Eagles choke & now you're losing in embarrassing fashion to the same fanbase you suffer through the Eagles with?

LMAO, that's gotta suck.

Does one Cup since the first Bush administration still somehow make all that better three years later?

Because personally that Phillies title from about the same time wouldn't be keeping me warm if all the sudden the Pirates finally finished over .500, made the playoffs & then embarrassed us in the fashion the Flyers currently are the Pens.

That's me though.

176. "A disgrace to the game?"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Perusing some comments on other boards and a frequent opinion seems to be today's Pens-Flyers game was a disgrace to the NHL/NBC.

Really?!?!

In response to Reply # 176


  

          

Not the first hockey game that fell apart like that and it won't be the last

Seeing the Pens resort to so many cheap shots and dirty tactics was disappointing on a few levels.

For one it affirmed everything the Pens haters have been saying, and it also had the most skilled and talented roster in the NHL playing like a bunch of thugs with no intention of actually winning the game or the series.

Don't see teams give up in 1st period of game 3 too often.

I expect game 4 to be pretty clean though. Usually the game after a bunch of fights tends to be clean.

i did laugh last year when he was asked why he punched daniel sedin and he told us "because i felt like it." he's had some gully moments and he's a ballsy player in some senses but overall, cmon, he's a pretty hard player to appreciate if you're a fan of any other team.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Get Winchester in there... Get Ferriero in... Galiardi is not helping the Sharks... Mitchell, who didn't really have a bad game, but he isn't helping the team...

The Sharks gotta stay out of the damn box... The Sharks can beat this team 5 on 5... quit taking bad penalties... 3 PP goals for the Blues...

Sharks gotta win some damn faceoffs... plain and simple...

Glad the Sharks got the 2 at the end... Reminds me of what the Canucks did last year in the WCF in game 3 when they came back and almost tied the game at the end... Completely killed the Sharks momentum going into game 4 last year... Obviously, this is a little different with the Blues leading the series, but I'm hoping the Sharks can take some momentum from this...

Taking some positives from the game... Couture gets on the board, Thornton with 3 assists... Hopefully this gives the guys some more confidence... The Sharks are only down 2-1... No time to panic...

2 days of rest and working shit out...



GO SHARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Soundly outplayed Holtby and won the game, wow, keep up the clever signs.

Who cares what a guy who gets hit with rock hard rubber at 100 MPH thinks about politics? That's like asking a boxer about brain surgery, probably stupider actually since some boxers have at least had brain surgery.

Bottom line is that he's a great personality and a great goaltender. Live with it.

In response to Reply # 231


  

          

couldn't find anything.

Only thing I can find is Alzner being the 3rd guy in on Looch and then claiming he's a baby.

Not quite sure why Alzner thinks he's even relevant

3 goals in the past 2 years and 1 career fight

VS


56 goals and 40 fights

I'd be skating backwards being protected by a linesman too if I was an irrelevant nobody calling Milan a baby

Good to see both the team and the fans are desperate to claim relevance in the face of all logic. You should focus on your super relevant baseball and football teams soon

They're just as tough and we're quicker from end to end. When we get contribution from dudes like Arnott, it's that much better cuz the Oshie/Backes line does work. Can't wait til Thursday.

The Sharks are taking bad penalties and our PK sucks fucking balls...

If the Sharks can stay out of the box, they can beat the Blues...

Did Marty Brodeur blow a 3-0 lead to the Florida Panthers? In the playoffs?

In response to Reply # 253


  

          

Really since 04, had a lousy series against the Flyers (even worse in 2010) and in generally has blown in the postseason.

This year they tried to ease his load a lot, resting him with little injuries and giving the Moose a lot of work. Their bringing in Hedberg was a sign Marty was slowing down and why the hell wouldn't he be at his age?

But yeah, I mean Marty flopping in the playoffs is kind of expected. That goal he gave up at the end of the first today was ugly, yeesh, back-breaking goal in that situation and a very stoppable shot. Off his angle, late reacting and couldn't get it with a desperate stab at kind of a long shot.

I think the Devs will be OK but I have to admit that I've seen less of the Panthers than any other playoff team.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

263. "that and the neal hit were super cheap"
In response to Reply # 254


  

          

both the shaw and hagelin hits were reckless/thoughtless but both neal and torres went out of their way to blow guys up in vulnerable positions when they had opportunities to let up and, in neal's case, no real reason to attempt a check anyway.

in both cases, the puck was gone and the guys were in positions where you don't go apeshit out of not only regard for the rules (interference, charging) but also a mutual respect for players. you don't take a guy's head off in those spots because you could get decapitated in the same position on the next play. everyone has to chip the puck, everyone has to turn off, etc. you are going to be in that spot and you don't kill someone else in it, in large part, to protect yourself.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Will live to regret those wonky contracts, too. Zetterberg/Franzen were the worst long deals like that apart from Ohlund and Pronger, which seemed to be a result of misunderstandings by their GMs.

They didn't cut the cap number significantly enough to justify deals of that length for players that age. Even the Hossa deal was better and that was not great. Only a few teams did those right, really, Flyers with Richards/Carter, Caps with Ovie ... hmmmm, I'm running out here. Hossa and Lou deals were OK. Bryzgalov was kind of brutal but jury's out on how brutal.

Anyway, I digress. This bunch for Detroit is done. Love Datsyuk but he's going to have a harder and harder time making it through a season. Plays a 500-pound game in a 180-pound body, I guess. Zetterberg I never thought as highly of as some other people, but he's a fine player, they have several of them.

I guess they will have a lot of cap space this year, a lot of good that will do them with the acrid FA market coming.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

you obviously didnt even watch them play. Zetterberg was the best skater on the ice for either team, and has been in almost every playoff game he's ever been in.

the wings will use that cap space to trade prospects for veterans, if there is money there it will go to a good home.

lets be really honest here, the reason the red wings are down in this series is that in the 3 games they've lost Rinne has given up 5 goals on 121 shots.

Uh, I said they were "done" as in not winning any more Cups (not exactly a bold prediction against most franchises) three years ago after they lost Game 7 to Pittsburgh. That had nothing to do with last night.

Now, they are "done" in the sense that they are screwed in the series now, but both of the last two games they have come hard enough to win. You could say that about Vancouver, too, perhaps a plea-copping convention is in order?

that's a huge reach, especially early in his career. he's still an excellent player, i just don't see him as a top-level offensive guy. all-around game is phenomenal, of course you'd want him on any roster i just think his best scoring years are behind him.

we'll see, they have a nice system prospect-wise but it's always hard to tell how close their guys are to ready. looking at this group I don't see the kind of guys who are blue chips that are a year away, i see more the kind of guys that detroit will hang onto and utilize themselves.

they will throw a pile of money at suter, i'm sure, and i don't discount a good trade but i wouldn't bet on anything huge. summer markets in general are getting pretty dry, teams are not losing their players for nothing nearly as much now.

that's a good way to win.

Rinne is the new Kiprusoff, who was the new Giguere, who was the new Irbe, etc.

The Wings always seem to run into hot goalies come playoff time, and it usually spells doom for them.

This roster is fine as currently constructed. They just can't get over the hump against this goalie...

spent either talking to players/coaches or talking to fans. wings fans have this inflated sense of their club that i don't see rivaled elsewhere, except maybe the remaining optimist leafs fans (who exist sole for everyone else's amusement).

they've got a great organization and a veteran group that is going to get done what they should get done (win at home, cash in on opportunities, etc). they don't have a cup contending team and havent for a couple years.

not a big deal, most organizations are in that spot or worse.

Wings win the cup in 2008. They make it to game 7 of the Finals in 2009. Ousted in the second round two years in a row (one series pushed to game 7). Now lose to a very good Preds team in a season showing league parity to the max and you are saying they haven't had a cup contending team for a couple years? What the fuck constitutes a cup contending team by your standards? Chicago's one-shot improbable lineup from 2010? Hilarious. Do you have to make it to the finals to be considered a cup contending team? Does that mean you have successfully predicted the final 2 teams every year?

I'm sure in all your infinite hockey wisdom, you predicted these "cup-contending" second round teams both at the start of the year and in March.

St. Louis
Nashville
Phoenix
LA

and

Washington
Florida
Ottawa
Philly

Where is that Chicago core you were drooling over?

Welcome to 2012. If you make the playoffs, you are a cup contending team. You need any combination of 4 healthy lines, puck luck, and a hot goaltender to win it all once you make it in. Even our cup winning years required some improbable special moments to make it through.

Now, Jesus, you hate the Wings so much you refuse to actually watch them. Zetterberg was by far our best skater in the playoffs. In fact, his entire career has been stellar. 102 points in 109 playoff games (better than Datsyuk there). That's not offensively talented? 624 points in 668 regular season games. He had 80 points last year in 80 games. For being an all-around guy, he certainly can put up points. You think he is done putting up close to 80 or more points? Or are we trying to compare him to Malkin and Stamkos?

Next year, even if in a perfect world we added Suter and Parise (Lids retires or takes a massive hometown discount), and also inject youth and hunger in the lineup with Smith and Nyquist. You'd still say we aren't a cup contending team. The hate is strong in you.

I hope you enjoy watching your swiss cheese goalies get eaten up in the next round as Philly gets knocked out.


Go Wings.

288. "Let's not give Pekka 100% credit"
In response to Reply # 282


  

          

His save % is astronomical, yes, and he has had a blatant robbery or two a game....

But the Predators are playing incredibly strong team defense. The majority of the Wings shots have come outside of the faceoff dots, which for a huge goalie as quick as Pekka (n/h) are easy saves.

http://www.nhl.com/ice/icetracker.htm?id=2011030184

I count 10 of the 41 being within the dots. We are forcing their offense to the outside, so while they are running the regular Red Wing puck control possession offense, they aren't getting many shots off that Pekka isn't able to track easily

Klein and Fisher have both had impressive blocks to save goals that otherwise were gimmes, but as a whole, the Preds haven't had many defensive breakdowns whatsoever. And all this is without Hal Gill

270. "that's gonna be a huge loss for phoenix"
In response to Reply # 268


  

          

it's one thing to launch upward into a guy, it's another one to jump.

he's had plenty of calls already. could be a long one.

that hurts phoenix, i almost think it could swing the series. these are all tight games and he is probably about their fourth best goal scorer. he scores big goals, he's been solid for them down the stretch and he was key for vancouver last year. not a flashy player but effective in the playoffs and makes the other team feel it with big hits.

it's a total toss up series, even closer than van-la in the west (which, despite the result and seeding gap, is a very close matchup talent-wise). that's why a medium sized thing could be big.

i wonder if we will see emery in the series, just to give him a look. quinneville went to him in some big games during the year.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

I would be surprised to Emery... I mean, it's been 3 ot games... Crawford definitely let in a soft OT goal tonight, but I don't see Chi making that change...

Hopefully Hossa can return late in the series, it's at least encouraging he didn't spend the night in the hospital.

I doubt it on Emery, too, it wouldn't be a shake-up type move, just a feel thing where they keep the platoon setup rolling from the regular season.

278. "Torres suspended indefinitely... (swipe)"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

NEW YORK -- Phoenix Coyotes forward Raffi Torres has been suspended indefinitely, pending an in-person hearing Friday, April 20, the National Hockey League's Department of Player Safety announced today. The hearing, which had been planned for today, was deferred at the request of the player and the National Hockey League Players' Association.

The hearing will be convened at the NHL's New York office for a hit Torres delivered to Chicago forward Marian Hossa 12:42 into the first period of Game 3 of the teams' Western Conference Quarterfinal series in Chicago on Tuesday, April 17.

NHL.com


fuck Torres... This piece of shit has been doing this for years... I don't even think the league should give him a chance for a Matt Cooke make-over... The league needs to get players like Torres out of the league...

I wonder if it's good or bad for hockey. It's certainly exciting but is it a turnoff to people

Though it may create some new fans who will inevitably become disappointed and disillusioned once they start watching the rest of the series

An angry Pens team firing on all cylinders

I know it's only 1 game so I won't get too high yet, but it's nice to see

In response to Reply # 292


  

          

a team up 3-0 is gonna win the series (& the Pens were still giving them stupid-ass power-play opps as recently as last period), particularly if it's a team that's already seen a 3-0 lead get erased before like the Flyers (granted from the winning side two years ago but still).

What I am worried about is whether this goalie has any confidence moving forward when/if they do so.

doesnt bode well for the future at all. boston/thomas will not be nearly as shitty defensively as the pens were. even if the flyers put up five a night on them, they'll still lose playing like they have for much of this series.

In response to Reply # 300


  

          

Being completely blown out or losing a tight game in OT... Doesn't change the result, a loss is a loss, but I think that a blow out like this isn't as bad for the Flyers as losing in OT...

In response to Reply # 303


  

          

I think either way when you are up 3-0 and then 3-1 you aren't shook and expect to win the series as you should.

But the blowout win will fire up the team that is down much more. Right now the Pens are heading back to Pittsburgh remembering why they were cup favorites, thinking about how they led the league in goals because they have the talent to put up 10 every night. Obviously that doesn't happen every night, but they know they have that talent.

They have a renewed confidence in Fleury who only let up Power play goals and shut out the Flyers for 2 straight periods which in this series is a big deal.

I expect this to be over in 5, 6 if we are really lucky, but a win like this gives a team like the Pens the revival they need heading home for game 5. There is no "oh we are lucky to still be playing" feeling.

But I was just thinking about from a Flyers player perspective... They mentally checked out in the 2nd period... I mean, I assume they did... They didn't go through that "Oh, we were so close..." type emotion... I think the Flyers will comeback much stronger in game 5... series will be over by 6...

I still think the Kings will win... I picked them to win this series and I stick with my picks... But I would surprised if the Canucks don't at least push this to at least a 6th game... Sedin being back in the lineup, the series going back to Vancouver... No more goalie controversy... Should make for a very entertaining game 5...

turn overs in our zone and bad penalties. Schneider played a great game though. Quick made some great saves for us but their pp was on a good one today. Cant expect to stop them all.

I'm not a Luongo hater, but 2 young American goaltenders dueling it out is just a much more appealing storyline to me...

I didn't really watch too much of the game besides the 1st... Any nastiness towards the end??

Canucks out played us. Quick kept us in the game as long as he could. But they were putting tons of pressure on him during 5 on 5. So when we started giving them PP's everyone knew they were going to score. we had some fight. Had a couple of good shifts in there and had Schneider on his toes. But he definitely stepped up to the challenge.

In response to Reply # 309


  

          

This goes back to the BU-BC thing, where I fucking hate them with every fiber of my being, but I think he's clearly a guy who can handle pressure better than Luongo. I think the Bruins really broke him as far as his ability to handle big games. The fact that he ducked them this year, now Schneider succeeding where he was failing and clearly being the guy who Vancouver is gonna depend on to try and get out of the 0-3 hole. Luongo may not be completely done, but how could you possibly trust him to win you a big game? He's mentally weak and just not someone who's got that ability to truly raise his game on a day when his team needs it.

In response to Reply # 311


  

          

game 1 he was coming up huge. It was the Canucks lack of discipline that cost them. I mean you cant expect the guy to stop every thing when his team is in the box every 5 minute and giving up break aways on short handers. Fuck not to mention the total break downs in defense. He really got screwed by his team playing like crap.

In response to Reply # 312


  

          

I mean a lot of it comes from how I watched my team just son him, but I just have a hard time picturing that guy being able to raise his game when his team has nothing. Timmy didn't do it as much this year, but thinking about last year's playoffs, there were a couple games that he absolutely won on his own when the team didn't have anything. That's a huge part of being a true franchise goalie in my mind.

i'm no goalie coach but there's no denying that no matter who is the better individual player, the canucks play better when they go to schneider. i do not think we see luongo again in this series. he looked really pissed off last night. goalies are weird dudes.

Heading into Wednesday everyone in this city expected a sweep, after the way the game went you have an entire city ready for a 4 game comeback.

Reality obviously keeps some of us in check, but the city is fired up like game 7 is tonight.

Great picture of outside of the arena, these people aren't even going to the game, just watching on a TV outside.

In response to Reply # 328


  

          

it's more of a 'these motherfuckas better not' thing coupled with knowing the Pens are actually a better team (which was known going in).

As I said after the second period of Game 4, shades of 2000 Conference Finals up 3-1 but with one more game as a buffer.

There was an Islander series like this in I believe '87 as well that ended up going 7 but they pulled it out.

I'd say at home in Philly is a must win but I don't really believe it, this series & hockey in general is weird enough that they could even it up but the Flyers still win in Pittsburgh.

They might need to go back to spotting y'all the first 2-3 goals, that seemed to work, tho I know the panic & negativity that sets in with a Philly crowd in that situation.

I had forgotten what it was like for a bit but when I was home over 2010 over Christmas I went to the Tuesday Night Football aka the 'Joe Webb Game' & it was almost comical the way the creeping sense of impending doom that begins to grow in a Philly crowd to the point where I had to actually ask people in our section 'what we don't cheer for first downs anymore?' during the third quarter of a one-score game.

I'd forgotten about it because I'm mentally removed from it even though I'm still watching every game, I'm also less invested emotionally or affected by losses than I was in my 20s. But that one freezing-ass night listening to the murmurs brought it right back like I'd never moved west or given up my season tickets, only this time I was more observing the moment than sharing it with the rest of the crowd.

I'm not expecting help from the crowd in Game 6 unless the team's playing so well they don't need it, plus I'm not sure in hockey it matters all that much anyway.

It'd be nice to get a stud goaltending performance or for y'all to start taking terrible penalties again.

There was a huge remember the Igloo movement going on leading up to this game. That place used to shake all game long even during timeouts, but after they moved to the new arena it stopped.

It's a problem with most hockey teams now, you have these new fancy arenas that all look the same where even SRO tickets for big games cost $100+ and the rowdy game effecting fans can't get in. Instead you get the suit wearing fan who uses tickets as a status symbol, may not even show or sell his tickets and is leaving after 2 periods regardless of the score.

Last night was the first time the Console sounded and looked like an old arena, never seen it so loud. Plus the chants of Fleury from the second the puck dropped and then continuing after every save had to be helping a goaltender who had lost all his confidence. (to the extent chants can help a professional athlete, I realize they didnt give him skills)

The Philly fans will be making noise to start the game, but it won't take much to get them to give up on the team I don't think, and if that happens the team may not be far behind. You can see the frustration that everyone was mocking the Pens for creeping up. http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/1073844/somad.gif

Take into count that we all know like you said the Penguins are the actual better team, if they get a few big saves out of Fleury early in game 6 we may be seeing an all time classic game 7.

remaining games will roll over into next season...

25 games is great... should've been 50... fuck Torres... This is a good message sent by the league, but unfortunately the rest of the suspensions this playoffs have been incredibly inconsistent...

In response to Reply # 344


  

          

maybe a little longer, i dunno, i mean you look at aaron rome last year getting four games (balance of the finals series) for his hit on horton and wonder. this was clearly worse than that, but it wasn't the finals, but it was on a star and blah blah blah.

overall, i think it's one of the more sensible decisions they have made. guy has five offenses, all high hits, plus he had others (e.g. Seabrook hit) that went unpunished. i like torres' game overall but he has established himself as a head hunter. that one on jan hejda (think that was his most recent suspension) was really garbage, gutless and senseless play.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Simply the more balanced team this year. When a team capitalizes on their chances, they're going to win those close games. We couldn't seal the deal.

I still don't find them very scary at all, however. Any team that plays smarter than Detroit did will smoke them.

Go Wings.

Blues were the better team...

3 years in a row, the Sharks have been eliminated from the one team that had their number the entire year (Chi, Van, and STL)...

This fuckin sucks... October is a long ways away...

I'm sure there will be lots of changes before then... And I have a feeling it will start with DW...

350. "So f'n pumped for this game today"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

This is going to be a tough one, and I'm at a point where I'm not embarrassed of the Penguins, nobody will remember some of the awful performances if this ends today in a normal game, they will just remember a great series between rivals now.

But a win...oh lord have mercy if this series goes to game 7 this city might explode. Odds still against it but a comeback seems totally plausible now, but today will be the toughest one.

I think we have to forget about the first goal curse of the first 6 games and come out fast. It won't take much to get the home fans to turn on the Flyers today I have the feeling. A quick goal or 2 goal lead might send Bryz into a shell and send a chorus of boos down that could crumble the team feeling pressure.

Or we just lose and I am sad, either way this series has turned crazy fun in a week.

Flyers are fired up right now, Fleury is holding them in there, he couldn't have stopped either of the two goals.

This game could be 4-0 right now easily.

Congrats to the Flyers and the fans who get that it's just a hobby we pay money to billionaires to enjoy so they can pay millionaires.

win or lose always important to keep that in mind, some of the things I see going down on facebook or twitter from both sides right now are just sad.

Pens played like shit too many periods in those first 3 games. Today was the kind of egg any team can lay on any given day, but when you dig a giant hole for yourself you just can't afford it.

Flyers made great changes today and played a game nobody saw coming, just not letting the Pens in the zone or giving them the chance to challenge Bryz. Would have loved to see this go 7 games, but we all know the Pens didn't deserve that chance.

In response to Reply # 350


  

          

Sid pretty invisible, Malkin was at least trying hard. Have to credit Couts and Talbot for sticking to those guys, the defensemen didn't get worn down or have to worry about them too much the checking from the forward was so tight.

Classic series for sure, I like the way it ended for Philly since they got a little push back and kind of normalized some things. Nothing was bigger than the third period, they played conservatively but passionately. From the jump they were getting pucks deep on offense and dropping back without playing soft on D, nice active sticks. Loved the way they executed with the lead today, that will help them going forward.

I don't want to count my chickens too soon here but if Ottawa and Washington win then what was essentially a fuck-you pick of the Flyers going to the Finals may actually materialize. I had Nashville meeting them, I guess that could happen.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Planned on going, but with this weather the way it is, I might chill at home for this game instead. Going to the Drafthouse might be a jinx.

Gonna be INTENSE today. Even my lady, who doesn't fuck with hockey like that, is excited. She's rocking a jersey cooking up some chili. GOOD.

Game 2 I was watching feeling like I knew we'd lose, so I was super excited when we won.

This hurt cuz I honestly thought after that third goal pushed it to OT that we'd take it in similar fashion.

374. "Caps/Bruins literally the closest series in NHL history"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

http://www.japersrink.com/2012/4/23/2968438/the-noon-number

99.3 - Percentage of the Capitals' first-round series with Boston which has been played with the score within a single goal through six games.

The games have been tied for 69.4% of the time, the Caps have had a one-goal lead for 26.8% of the time, the Bruins for 11.5% and the Caps held the only two-goal lead of the series... for less than three minutes in Game 5. And, as Caps Today points out, the series "is the first in NHL history to feature six straight one-goal games. Five of the six game-winning goals have come in the 59th minute of regulation or later in this series."

Yep, it's been that close.

Chicago I had decent expectations for but they had holes. Detroit and San Jose I had going out early even before the matchups were set, both pretty underwhelming teams to me. Detroit will make you pay for mistakes so they will be successful more often than not. San Jose just has a weird room, hard to say what's going on in there.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

400. "Well, that sucked"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Here's my thoughts:

-The B's simply didnt play their game the entire series. They won all season by being a big tough physical team, and they let a mediocre team take them out of their game all series, and they paid for it. They played timid for 7 games when they couldn't afford to

-The officiating tonight was terrible

-Part of me is digesting this by thinking about the fact that this team plays a full season, plays all the way through the playoffs going to game sevens in nearly every series, wins the cup, parties their dicks off for the only 2 months they had off(while most of the league has almost 6 months off) before jumping right back into the season, and going 4 OT games in a 7 game series in the first round. A long off season will be very beneficial to this team


-The officiating tonight was terrible

-Seids was FAR and away the MVP of this playoff series for the B's


-The officiating tonight was terrible

-The rampant Racism that will follow this loss that began immediately after the goal was scored will at least make this entertaining and digestible

- I feel really good about this team going into next year. They get rest, they've locked up some key pieces, and all the parts are in place to make another run next year. They played tougher and more physical than any other team in the league this year until it mattered, and they have plenty of time to think about that

-Fuck Ovie-rated.

-The officiating tonight was terrible

-I take solace in the fact that the caps and their fans are still an irrelevant franchise and will continue to be so (Cmon, it's still playoff hockey season)

-Even though they aren't playing anymore, for the next 2 months they are STILL the DEFENDING STANLEY CUP Boston Bruins

Wrong.

B's played tough and hard and chippy and good defense and did their normal thing.

Problem is, Caps matched them game for game. Save for save. And never backed down.

B's played well. Caps played one goal better.


>-The officiating tonight was terrible

>-The officiating tonight was terrible

>-The officiating tonight was terrible

>-The officiating tonight was terrible

A powerplay with 2:30 on the clock wasn't good enough for you?

Cry like Marchand.

I will take mediocre and advancing over not fulfilling expectations and the season being over. Hey, the Bruins might be more like the Caps than you think

Pretty much any name forwards for Boston other than Seguin were totally invisible. Washington controlled the pace of the series, especially on the road they were meticulous in executing a slow, measured game plan that took the Bruins out of their game. They had a non-existent fore-check and very little counter attack, didn't turn pucks over in the neutral zone for shit. Hunter outcoached Julien and Washington outplayed Boston, live with it. The same thing happened to the Caps last year when they lost to Tampa.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

This team refused to be intimidated. Refused to be nervous. Refused to back down.

They grinded out the series winning goal.

So proud.

Oh, and fuck Boston and all their whiney ass crying ass fans. Literally spent more time booing the refs than they did cheering for their own team.

At least their team is on the golf course now and can justify the fans bitterness.

The look of disbelief on their faces, the anger about the loss and the argument of how they told me you guys haven't won shit. It was like talking to 5 year olds. I did talk to some cool Bruins fans who said it was a tough series and the Caps made the plays.

It is a shame that all these Bruins shirts and hats less than 1 year old are going to have to go back into the closet.

I'm sure hockey in Boston is like hockey in your other major sports towns. The hockey fans are typically die hard. They're a unique bunch. The crowd at a B's game is different than a red sox or celtics game.

So, you're pretty off base about the bandwagon nature of the fans.

stole this from a post in GD... I know it's not all Boston fans, but a good majority are... What the fuck is wrong with people... They all say they were either drunk, emotions took over, or they were just joking... ALL of them claim they're not racist... Some deleted their twitter accounts...

Important Notice to Franklin Pierce Community

Late last night, after the Boston Bruins playoff loss to the Washington Capitals, a statement was made by one of our students on social media – one in which vile racial slurs were hurled at a player - that does not in any way reflect the attitude of Franklin Pierce University; the University does not condone this type of communication, nor will it tolerate it. We are outraged and deeply saddened by the view that this freshman holds, one that he, apparently, arrived with when entering the University. We consider the racism, ignorance, lack of inclusiveness and poor sportsmanship reflected in the student’s actions to be a matter of grave concern, and we are taking immediate action to investigate the situation. This first-year student, who is not a part of any Franklin Pierce University athletic team, will be addressed appropriately and in accordance with our Student Conduct Code.



Franklin Pierce University
