The official hockey thread

am i the only one rooting for the habs?

i am. i just hate pittsburgh. also if detroit makes it through (which isn't looking good) i'd see montreal as less of a threat. but then again taking out two teams like pittsburgh and washington back to back would be pretty intimidating. overall i think montreal would just make things more interesting. they seem to be the team everyone is watching.

hopefully the hawks can close this thing out tomorrow night back home. hawks/sharks should be a great matchup now that thornton and marleau are bringing it big time now.

[sing blue silver]

well it's all over for me. now i don't know who the fuck to pull for. chicago it is i guess.

[E-Money]

I didn't think Chicago played that bad tonight.  Luongo is a fantastic goaltender, and really kept the Canucks in the game.  I still think Chicago will pull it out.  Pens will finish it up tmrw night.  At least I hope they do....

[bright lights, big city]

Salo's down for the count with a ruptured testicle. I don't wish that upon anyone, even if they are a Canuck.

[E-Money]

Yea man, that was horrible.  Someone else that plays for Van took a stick in the face too, and required some stitches.  My Pens were outplayed tonight.  I'm nervous about game 7....

Looking forwards to the Blackhawks game tonight!

[bright lights, big city]

YES! Bring on San Jose!

[devilinside]

Honestly,after watching that game last night, I'm SUPER surprised that Vancouver was ranked #3. Blackhawks got 2 goals in under a minute...TWICE!!

[bright lights, big city]

that was definitely amazing, especially when they did it in the 3rd, because i got really nervous when it was 3-1 and the canucks were threatening again to score. the SJ/Chi series will be completely different, which kind of worries me now. SJ is fast as fuck, which i think we can keep up with, but then riding a rookie goalie this far into the post-season is not the ideal situation.

another big story is how the hell does Sami Salo play 2 days after literally busting a nut?

tonight's got a couple big games! i'm pulling for montreal!

I'm late but

[E-Money]

Well its over for me......I really dont see anyone beating Montreal. Im pretty much positive they will win the cup.  The did beat the best 2 teams in the league. 

[bright lights, big city]

it's unfair how good Halak has been in the post-season. he's instantly transformed into the next Patrick Roy.

[Corleone]

Or atleast the next dwayne roloson

[sing blue silver]

what the fuck happened to boston? speaking of which, what the fuck is happening with all these teams? detroit sent home in round 2? montreal beating the 2 best teams out when they were a fucking wild card? vancouver slipping so bad? this years playoffs have me baffled. i pegged this all wrong. 3 of the 4 teams i expected to be here at this point aren't.

[E-Money]

So Halak plays like a world class goaltender against Wash and Pitt, then lets 4/13 in against Philly....I don't get it. 

[bright lights, big city]

and Niemi saved 44/45... holy fuck.

[Crazylegs]

god damn i love me some datsyuk

Pavel Datsuyk GOAL OF THE YEAR

Datsyuk robs Jagar and humiliates Kolzig

Pavel Datsyuk steals , Dangle Dangle, scores

[Corleone]

Hope that Chicago sweeps San Jose, don't want to see anymore late games.

[bright lights, big city]

if we can somehow finish the Sharks off tomorrow, i bet they get another week off. knowing Montreal, they'll go at least 6, probably 7 games. fuckers.
