Montreal once again dodged a bullet with Vinny.

Briere wasn't a good move either, but it's still less money and a shorter contract.

 

[GaimeGuy]

Um... ref watches as the avs player takes a shot at a wild player's jaw (didn't see who it was), Wild player doesn't retaliate doesn't give a penalty?

 

[Chris R]

Varly seems solid after that early miss. Good too because the wild are owning us right now.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Good luck Sharks.

 

[Razorskin]

Is Pierre McGuire at this game.. why does it feel like Pierre McGuire is at this game and at EVERY game.

Are you clenching your anus?

 

[Draconian]

At this point, it's apparent that these refs can't see jack.

Yeah it was a crosscheck to the chest(not jaw from what I could tell) but they don't call those in the playoffs. At least, not usually.

 

[Acid08]

I hate that Jumbo said he expects this to be a 2-1 game. Makes it seem like they're going to try to play like the Kings do which isn't how we can beat them.

 

[Roflobear]

Not me, I had them winning. They were too evenly matched so I essentially picked Lundqvist over Mason.

Funny enough, that may have been the wrong decision if Mason was starting for the whole series

 

[jello44]

A part of me wanted the Habs to sign him, really dodged a bullet there. At least Briere as raised his game in the playoffs so far.

That's generally what Briere does. He did the same thing in Philly.

 

[lamaroo]

I wanted Montreal to sign him to a two year deal, thought he'd be better than Briere. Really glad we dodged a bullet there.

nah he's talking about the push/punch to the face after the whistle RIGHT in front of the ref who is starting at it. ref said something but ate his whistle, per usual.

edit: crap, switched channel for 20 seconds and Avs score...

 

[gutter_trash]

I hate the Rags, I hate the Pens, I diskike the Bruisn but respect them, the Habs play boring ass defense/counter attack but they are my home town... hmmm I dislike you less

 

[KingHenrik30]

Good look by Hishon on that one

 

[Fata1moose]

McGinn!!! Hishon with those soft hands, that kid!

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Cheer for us, Hawks fans. I demand it as a payment on your debt for the favor we did you a few years ago by beating the Dallas Stars in the last game of the season and thus pushing you guys into the playoffs while also hurting our draft position by one pick.

I DEMAND IT

Why wouldn't I want the Hawks to play you guys over COL?

And ffs, wild.

 

[GaimeGuy]

That looked offsides to me

 

[Buckethead]

Ok... I'm cool with that.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Yeah that's what I'm talking about.

Refs won't call that unless it starts getting super chippy and uncalled for. This one really wasn't that bad compared to others. Of course I'd be happy with a penalty though.

 

[~Kinggi~]

hells yeah!

 

[GaimeGuy]

Also, mcginn looked at me funny.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

OFFSIDE.

SIDE.

NOT SIDES.

 

[Curufinwe]

Is this an accurate Flyers year-by-year recap?

Lose in finals while getting torn a new one by Patrick Sharp. Patrick Kane clinches the series.
Trade Carter and Richards away after season.
Pronger has career ending injury. Carter and Richards (and Gagne) win the cup.
Miss the playoffs.
Carcillo scores big goal to help defeat Philly game 7.

 

[Clydefrog]

CANT DEAL WITH IT

 

[DrForester]

 

[Pickles the Firecat]

Sharks are on their game

 

[Red_Man]

That's generally what Briere does. He did the same thing in Philly.

Bergevin has repeatedly said he brought him in specifically for the playoffs, and it seems to be paying off so far.

 

[GaimeGuy]

OFFSIDE.

Yes sir :3

let's not take sides

 

[wsoxfan1214]

You don't want Soc on you.

 

[JABEE]

Tough ending. Crazy season. Good game, Rangers fans.

 

[Razorskin]

Bergevin has repeatedly said he brought him in specifically for the playoffs, and it seems to be paying off so far.

And he's doing it on the 4th line.

 

[Draconian]

Did the organist really just start playing Led Zeppelin?

 

[Clydefrog]

commercial already? holy shit almost 8 mins have passed!

 

[Curufinwe]

I should point out that he was never the same after his back fracture in December. If he went somewhere else that probably doesn't happen and he scores 50 points.

 

[Clydefrog]

richards wtffffffffff

 

[Pickles the Firecat]

Oh good lord Richards

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

God.. that line for Colorado with Statsny Landeskog and McKinnon. So good. So good.

 

[Razorskin]

richards wtffffffffff

Big time player

 

[GaimeGuy]

So it's 2*-1 avs after 1

 

[ZeroGravity]

Injuries have been his downfall for years. Every time he starts looking like the old Vinny, he gets hurt and can't get his game back. Biggest risk of signing him.

 

[Fata1moose]

Solid period, besides the refs. I have an anatomy test tomorrow on Nervous system, Sensory system and Reproductive. So I'll be spending my intermissions making sure I have things memorized.

 

[MacAttack]

How is everyone managing watching both games?

I'm flipping between channels but i feel like I'd be better off choosing one or the other.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Between the Sharks and Kings. It's going to be a shame for whichever team loses this in a 7 overtime game

 

[GaimeGuy]

So NHL-GAF, what kind of soup should I have? Chicken noodle, homestyle chicken noodle, or chunky chicken noodle?

 

[lamaroo]

I've got Sharks/LA on primarily, flipping to Avs/Wild during commercials. The former has the 3-0 collapse factor going for it.

 

[Vyroxis]

So NHL-GAF, what kind of soup should I have? Chicken noodle, homestyle chicken noodle, or chunky chicken noodle?

ALWAYS Homestyle. What kind of question is this?

 

[GaimeGuy]

ALWAYS Homestyle. What kind of question is this?

Multiple Choice?

 

[Fata1moose]

Altitude saying the puck went off a Minnesota player's stick so it couldn't be interference.

 

[Socreges]

You don't want Soc on you.

Good work. *pats sox on head*
