Last time this playoff I ever get excited about this team. Every fucking time.
Lesson learned, Zero. No good reason to be excited about the Lightning until they win the Cup. The season will be over and THEN you can get excited!
First the Mets' cameraman, now it's the Rays' turn:
Poor guy
To have to choose between watching the Rays or getting blown out 5-1... ouch
Corey Perry must have whacked him in the head this morning

St Louis Lightning and Tampa Blues
I just figured that out. It's even worse (better) for me.

Maybe the sport that takes the most skill and the sport that has the most luck involved.
Frustrating, exciting, absurd, glorious, it is all of that.
Someone post Chicago's
Seabrook - 28:56
Keith - 28:04
Oduya - 19:20
Hjalmarsson - 19:01
Cumiskey - 8:51
Timonen - 6:50
Dat ...uhhhh...
Overblown. Q has leaned on his top 4 in previous runs, and the media needs a narrative now that Crawford has settled in a bit. Anaheim's top guys are taking more minutes as well, it's just not as glaring since their bottom two aren't mostly useless.
This. We had bottom pairings made up of Sopel/Hendy/Boynton and Rozsival/Leddy/Brookbank during the two Cup runs. Sopel played a decent amount of minutes but the other two barely played. Q never trusted Leddy in the playoffs so he was low on minutes despite being the best skating defenseman Chicago had. When Keith was suspended that game in the Kings series, I think Brookbank had less than 10 shifts.
Now, the TOI wasn't quite as imbalanced as it has been this year but Chicago's top 4 have always had a heavy workload

lol, I always love the Mets mentions in the NY sportspaper clippings.

#AIHL stuff.
Mustangs did well tonight, but the Ice did better.
Leads were back and forth. Ice came back in the 3rd to take the lead with 2 mins left, Mustangs couldn't take it back. Webster was being a shit. Wong was capitalising. The Ice had a shit looking powerplay and yet it still capatilised. That sounds familiar.
Still don't know why they do the Australian anthem.
We got ice level standing area (I sat on a rail because I'm a badass).
And we stood, because it was sold out.
Fun game nonetheless. 5-4 Ice. Not even mad.
Australian hockey kicks butt.

The post always has a Yankees slant. Newsday generally favors the Mets.
Your ass must have been even worse after sitting on a rail for the whole game
sounds like a good time

That's really shitty. "It's Hockey!" isn't a good excuse.

Was this the Ranger fan in question?

Seriously. If this person needed a fainting couch for that, they should be on their knees thanking God that they won't be playing the Kings in the finals.

They do seem happy after the win yesterday. So gay.

"We're all homophobes here you bigot."
That's what's great about the Ducks playoff win puck holder - it doubles as a bunch of glory holes
Here's the whole collection:
I like that each paper chose a different guy this time. Usually they're so homogeneous.
"He he, you said 'homo!'"
AV needs to be bashing it into everyone that tomorrow TB is gonna come out hard after that blowout. Same thing kinda happened in the habs series where they lost real bad. Hopefully Henrik is back to normal, but to be fair a lot of the goals were guys all alone in front of the net, not much to be done. Needs to stop rebounds though.
I'm reminded a lot of what happened after Game 6 of the last round.
Change some quotes and a couple of minor details here, and this post from the previous playoffs thread still applies almost completely.
Just go and listen to Cooper and Stamkos talking after last night's game. They're not really wrong, but at the same time, they still lost by 4, on home ice, with a chance to practically put the series away.

It's happened in every round. They have a chance to put their mark on a series and fall flat.
I keep saying it but this team, for whatever reason, can't put seem to put everything together until the pressure to win becomes real and their backs start getting close to the wall. And I think this is the series it might catch up with them because the Rangers are much better than the Wings or Canadiens.
If they lose Game 5, they'll likely have dug their own grave even if this goes to seven.
You know if they win he'll get credit for these changes to the lineup. They'll completely ignore he switched them for game 3 for no reason.
I doubt it. In interviews since Game 3 he's been getting grilled about it and you can tell he was on the defensive when it came to his stupid mistakes. Hopefully they'll be saying that if the Hawks win tonight, they could have potentially had a 3-1 going back to Anaheim. We'll see I guess.
Stealing this quote from HF about Q's decisions because it sums it up perfectly:
It's so quiet in here. I'm not ready to join the losers thread though.
Ducks lineup is staying the same tonight, no surprise there. It's crazy to bet against the Hawks in the Madhouse in such an important game, but I do feel strangely confident about this one. I predict a 3-2 OT win

That image is as broken as your assessment of Blackhawks' leadership!
