Is this the first time Nashville has made it to the second round?
I'm gonna say yes
My prediction is Crosby suprise-plays tonight. His brain has slightly calcified from that which hasn't killed him, making him stronger - nigh unconcusable. He'll do what only commercial Ovechkin could, the hat trick of hat tricks.
think soQuote:

welcome to overtime in game seven...now you know how I felt last night. It doesn't get any better than this!
Very nice Montreal! Super lame goal celebration on the biggest goal of his life though, why do black people always have to act so cool?
Sorry, that last comment probably belongs in the "Side effect of banning poker" thread.
Damn that sucks.
My favorite part of the game was watching Seabass rage in the Boston GM box. Would have been sweet to see him explode if Montreal scored in OT.
Hahahahahahahaha. F U Canadian frogs. Boston wins!!!! All you have now is being French and Canadian..aka you have nothing...nothing!
I loved it. Black ppl are just cool that way.Quote:

i think we'd have an easier time with washington than we did against buffalo. not guaranteeing we'd beat them or anything because obviously we very easily could've lost to buffalo.Quote:

Pronger and Carter are back; Miller stole 1.5 games in that series.
If they go with Boucher he'll be perfectly serviceable.
Ruh roh Philly
I think the plan is to let them get up 3-0 again.

Not a good start...
whats up with Richards? Wake up son
can't wait til that's made into a gif.
Been out of touch for the last few days. Tornado stuff. No power for 5 days. Left town.
Missed game 1 of Preds-Canucks-sounded like Preds were passive
Saw Game 2- That's the Preds I know.
First time Preds made round 2 and first time with 3 wins in Round 1
i think james van reimsdyke jerseys are gonna be this year's giroux jerseys in philly. this game is INSANE!
the broadcasters are saying his name so much, it's just starting to sound like a nonsensical series of syllables (like when you say eleven 100 times in a row you forget what it means). this would normally annoy me, but good god is it justified tonight
how do phily lose in OT after JVRs 3rd period?!?!
well over 30 shots between the third period and overtime, and a big turnover in our own zone loses it. sigh
:dance:
gg bigred. you guys stole one from us big time
2-0 is nothing compared to last year
we won't fall for that trap again...right Bruins...right?Quote:

say what you want about how holmgren assembled an elite group of forwards w/ solid defense in a relatively short period of time, but is it really even forgiveable how shitty his team's goaltending situation is?
Stevey Y picked up Roloson early on for just about nothing, result: TB up 2-0 against WASH
Philly rides into the post season with a no-name bum goaltender (bobrovsky - who wouldn't have anywhere near the same stats on a team that actually needed goaltending to win i.e. the canadiens) and a few washed up career back-ups.
So sad.
lol come on now the Bruins aren't THAT badQuote:

Vancouver hasn't made it past the second round since 1994, so if they beat Nashville there could definitely be some riots!

This round is just so brutal though - gg caps, gg boudreau gnight it was fun watching you on 24/7 but you're done, vans/preds is the worst style matchup possible (canucks are awesome to watch but preds are the only team that can stymie them). I guess I'll have to put my faith in the sharks. Go wellwood!!!
anyone else disappointed that the second round is so damn one-sided? every series is fucking over, 3-0 or 4-0, except Nash/Van which has me rooting for Nashville to win tonight just to give us some fucking hockey to watch next week. So so sad, fucking capitals and flyers, epic collapse.
Agreed.Quote:

Penney, how are the Canadians doing?

OOOOOOOOOOH you mean the Canadiens!
offseason. douchebag
btw I mean given the way the bruins are wiping the floor with the filthy flyers, does this make you respect the Canadiens more, given that we were one goal away from eliminating you etc? (in all honesty)
Drunk bigred wrote that. Sober bigred approves.
Sober bigred is aware when the bruins are knocked out Penney will be the first one posting ITT. Sober bigred cares not because at the end of the day...its just hockey

There I said it.
And Canadiens fans will never, ever hear the end of it.
Meh, I actually really like hockey. Just trying to be a hater.
so no comment on my prediction of a bruins cup win? I am beginning to thing u speed read all my posts, lopl.
I'm trying to throw you a bone here :D
Am I dreaming?
I think I must be dreaming
We're not actually in a conference final, are we?
omg I have been waiting for this for so long OMG
go detroit!!!
good thing my prediction was a giant level
