Only way I get tickets to playoff games here is if someone with seasons tickets offers them to me, or apparently if my Dad "wins" the chance to purchase them.

Way: you only needed to watch the last 5 minutes of the game to make you happy.

Wasn't really a good idea to post that muriel up of losing Pens shaking Sens hands from last years series…

Heatly, Spezza combined, 4 games, 0 goals, 2 assists…

Yeah, I really missed that pick badly. In my defense, I didn't realize Alfredsson was hurt when I made it. But it was still a bad call.

Red Wings v. Predators has gotten interesting, tied 2-2 and be it not for 30 (2 goals in each of the Pred wins scored within a span of 15 seconds) seconds in the 4 games, Detroit should be up 4-0…

Who would ever predict that Al (or whatever his first name is) Ellis would be outplaying Olympic Gold Medal / Stanley Cup Champion goalie Hasek…

The West is all ridiculously competitve. Calgary vs. SJ 2-2, Detroit vs. Nashville 2-2, Colorado vs. Minnesota 2-2, Dallas vs. Anaheim 2-1 and that could easily go 2-2 next game.

All the series in the East could very well be over in 5 games.

Without looking, I am guessing that is the shirtless gladiator? Serious clownshoes. I can't believe that was done in a Canadian city. I could see it in Nashville or (especially) Columbus, but Ottawa?

So did the Sens.  DRILLING AND MANLINESS

But yeah, I had to change the channel when that was on. I mean, I was laughing but... wow, embarrassing.

At least he had that mask on. He'll only take it from his friends, family, and colleagues for the rest of his life instead of every stranger on the street.

I missed the beginning of that game but had heard that they had a terrible intro. I didn't realize how terrible it was. From the bad fitting helmet, to the script written inside his shield and the audio cutting out so that it sounds like he says 'WE SHALL.... SURRENDER' it was so full of  awesome, for real that I'm still laughing.

Well, you can't argue with his stats.  Even if they were inflated somewhat by his division.

Apparently taking 7 games to beat a team that barely made the playoffs, is enough of a cause for Montrealers to riot.

Stupid. Stupidstupidstupid. I don't expect any rioting in Calgary until about the 3 round ;)

Well, you can't argue with his stats.  Even if they were inflated somewhat by his division.

His stats were good. But he did play in the worst division in the league, in one of the few years we'll have this system that matches teams against their own division rivals *8* times each. Eight games against Carolina, Tampa Bay, and Atlanta.

So yeah, his stats are probably inflated. But that's not my problem. I'm just sick and fucking tired of the sloppy ball washing.

I didn't even like it when they were all doing it with Crosby. But everyone hates Crosby now, and his mature interviews are "boring" and "bad for the game" whereas Carey Price is "oh wow so mature what a kid omg", etc. When Crosby looks at the ref, he's a "whiner". When AO does it, he's "a warrior" somehow, etc.

The point is that when you really pour the gay love on for a player, it gets fucking old and people get sick of it. And I'm REALLY sick of the "Ovechkin: Jesus On Ice?" shit already. Pierre McGuire is currently making me sick to my stomach watching this game seven.

He's pretty fast and he shoots a lot. K. That's great, he's really good. But man fuck... I just want to watch a hockey game without feeling like the announcers write the guy mash notes.

Although, I think part of my problem is living in Canada. I'm exposed to about a hundred times the hockey coverage as people in the States are.

Nice to see this game going to overtime. Pretty good watchin'.

Well, that was pretty fucking cheesetastic.

What a gay penalty in OT. And that non-goal? Yeah.. not a goal.

Washington 2, Philadelphia 1. Sorry. And I wanted Philly to win.

Nothing cheesetastic about it. It was Clearly a careless trip. I'm sick of this "Oh it's OT = NO PENALTIES" bullshit.

The calls were very uneven in this series, for both teams. They even missed a puck going into the netting. They also missed a huge stick-slash that had been called every time in the previous 6 games.


And on AO....He's a great player, but it was painful to see him starting to dive to try to draw penalties.

Well, technically it was a penalty. However, there were several trips, hooks, and such infractions earlier in the OT. For both teams. None of which were being called.

Consistency in refereeing would be kind of nice.

Flames are so going out. I'm getting the impression that someone doesn't know how to flood ice cause there's a lot of bouncing pucks and falling players.
