Horrible period.

 

[MetatronM]

At least the game can't get any worse than that from here on, right?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Hurray Coach's Corner

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Great period

Kinda late on the CBJ captain talk, but no it hasn't been confirmed to be Foligno. It's just been the popular speculation since the front office said that whoever it was, made a big leap this year to stand out as a leader. He's one of the only guys who was healthy the whole year so that leaves out Jenner or Dubinsky. Only guys that make sense in that regard are Foligno and Hartnell and Foligno's going to be around longer so he appears to be the frontrunner. If it weren't for the front office dropping that possible hint, I would just say it's just fans getting excited about him having a great year and making a great impression at the All-Star thingy. There's a lot of leadership guys in that room, so I'm not particularly concerned about it either way.

Thunderstorm going on outside right now. Good omen.

Whoever makes it out of this series is just going to slaughter Chicago or Anaheim.

Chicago/Anaheim too good to need all this reverse-jinx shenanigans

 

[zroid]

I don't know what game you're watching, but this Battle of the Gods is blowing me away.

What did he say?

I missed Coach's Corner.

 

[zroid]

What did he say?

I missed Coach's Corner.

He said he guarantees they will win and they won't even lose a game :lol

 

[Foggy]

Just retire to your chateau in the French Alps until the hurting stops.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I will agree with Cherry that when the Russians left during O'Canada At the Worlds was very disrespectful.

 

[ZeroGravity]

I wish I could be mad at the refs, but all these penalties are so fucking dumb.

 

[lamaroo]

He said he guarantees they will win and they won't even lose a game :lol

I'm pretty sure he picks them to win every year.

He also shows every shot that deflects off a stick(or doesn't even touch them sometimes) and go in, while ignoring the hundreds of shots safely deflected into the corners/netting each game. Keep those sticks out of the way!

 

[Alligatorjandro]

refgers

 

[Calamari41]

Foggy, you're welcome at The Eagle's Nest any time.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Now THIS is the Lightning team I've been waiting to see.

 

[Stasis]

I wish I could be mad at the refs, but all these penalties are so fucking dumb.

Agreed, but unless the penalties are exactly equal between the teams you just know a bunch of dumb fans are gonna be talking conspiracy, they favor X team etc.

Less here than HFBoards, thankfully.

 

[Judderman]

Come the fuck on.

 

[Foggy]

Foggy, you're welcome at The Eagle's Nest any time.

Rangers fans at HFBoards aren't even watching the game though, since they've already won the Cup.

 

[ZeroGravity]

FUCK YES

 

[Judderman]

You fucks.

 

[zroid]

what the fuuuuuck just happened

Tyler Fucking Johnson hat trick?????

 

[DopeyFish]

tyler johnson... again? lol

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Neat

 

[Stasis]

Rangers fans at HFBoards aren't even watching the game though, since they've already won the Cup.

That whole message board is full of idiots. The larger the fanbase, the more vocal, the worse they are. Isles fans were pretty awesomely cocky earlier on in the season.

Bunch of horrible TBL fans too. It's just better to avoid the majority.

 

[MetatronM]

This one is just about over.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Give that man Stamkos' $12 million

 

[Red_Man]

So if Johnson gets injured, the Lightning are never scoring again, are they?

 

[FTF]

Of course the Rangers can't make things easy and actually go up 2 games in a series...smh.

 

[Foggy]

Hold up, did Kucherov kick it in?

nvm: overlords in Toronto got it right I guess

 

[Coldnoodle]

Johnson going to break the goal scoring record.

 

[Stasis]

This one is just about over.

Yeah, it is.

I hate to be that guy tonight but I work early and I didn't get much sleep this weekend.

Witcher 3 time before bed. I'll find out the score when I wake up!

 

[DopeyFish]

Johnson going to break the goal scoring record.

8 more to go

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Was that a Hat Trick for Johnson?

 

[zroid]

So if Johnson gets injured, the Lightning are never scoring again, are they?

Time for Kreider to go to work

Spoiler

 

[ZeroGravity]

Johnson/Kucherov/Palat now have 21 of Tampa's 38 goals in the playoffs.

 

[RangersFan]

THIS TEAM ABSOLUTELY HATES 2 GAME LEADS.

 

[MetatronM]

Was that a Hat Trick for Johnson?

I thought it was Kucherov, but they announced it here as Johnson.

 

[zroid]

apparently that was the first playoff hat trick in Lightning history

 

[TheKaeptain]

Goes without saying. Though I noticed in November that my favorite place was gone, so I'll have to go random this time.

You have no idea how much I miss Germany. I was stationed there for a few years.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Ouch

 

[zroid]

Oh gosh

 

[Foggy]

Crunchy hips, ouch

 

[FTF]

Damn that ref got leveled.

 

[DopeyFish]

oh wow they now have backup officials?
