Whoa, about time for a new thread!

just in time for the playoffs bitches...

 

[BertramCooper]

Since we're moving to the East next year, presumably we won't have as many 10 p.m. games, right?

 

[Rand0m TAG]

You must not have watched much Wild hockey then, actually not many people have since they usually fall asleep by the start of the 2nd.

you would think that they would play a fast pace brand of hockey with the player set they've got

 

[equippedwithtowel]

We play the same system as the penguins and countless other teams.

Nope

 

[Solo]

I think the Rags beating the Caps is almost a certainty.

Your games will all be at around 8 or 8:30 EST

Hard to say. Throw a coin up IMO. Caps took them to 7 games last season and this Rangers team isn't as good as that one.

 

[Marvie_3]

Smith!

 

[MetatronM]

I think the Rags beating the Caps is almost a certainty.

The only thing that concerns me is just HOW hot Ovechkin and the Caps are right now.

That said, we're pretty damn hot, too, and we're 2-0-1 against the Caps this season, and we only really played the Caps during our shittiest stretches of the season. (Our first win was the only win in a 6 game span, the second the only win in a 5 game span, the SO loss coming after losing to the last place Panthers.)

Going to be interesting.

Bish needs to rename the thread tomorrow. We are all Sens fans (because Sens winning means Leafs get Bruins which of course plays into the continued misery of Toronto).

Next NHLGaf podcast will be interesting to say the least.

I wonder if you're going to be so excited when we pull a first round upset.

Don't deny me a Habs/Leafs series. It's the best thing for all of us.

Oh thank Christ.

It's hard to follow the the CBJ consistently with so many goddamned 10 p.m. games.

Don't worry, next year we both move East!!

Damnit AV. Would it have killed you to bench one more player?

It was 3/5 times this season.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Starting to wonder whether the Canes thought they could lose points in the standings the wider the gap in the game was.

What a fucking season.

Horrorcanes.

Love the kid to death. 33 points this season which equates to 57 points over an 82 game season. Almost a 60 point season for a third line center. Amazing.

Also:

2010-2011: 17 points
2011-2012: 28 points
2012-2013: 57 points (if an 82 game season)

I wish Manics were still here for me to rub it in his face. Been telling GAF since 2010 that Eller was going to be a beast. Finally getting there!

It would be hilarious if detroits playoff appearance streak ends the first year they move to the east.

 

[AngmarsKing701]

Canes are done.

Time to put on the Kings gear.

Canes were done a month ago. The only thing that really pisses me off is the couple of wins and points they earned in the last week or so. Dumbasses.

We'll probably pick 6th and could have been top 3.

20K!

The East will be tough next year with only half the teams making the playoffs. Columbus have three first rounders in the draft.

 

[DopeyFish]

fuck it, i'll post the po thread now

not like im doing anything special with it

 

[CrazedArabMan]

You know, this same stupid thing is said every year just in different ways, "Would be hilarious if their streak ended this year because of X". :/

Plus it is a whole new playoff structure to get in which I don't like at all and being in a division with more teams making even harder...

 

[Vman]

Pomminville back for gm.1 will be huge. Heatley surprisingly saying he may return is even better!!!

Making the playoffs in the Northeast, er, "Central" next season will be fucking rough.

Boston
Detroit
Montreal
Toronto
Ottawa
Buffalo
Florida
Tampa

Only 4 teams get in. 5 of those teams are playoff teams this year. 6 were last year.

Beat Boston tomorrow and you play Habs in first round.

Home ice advantage for the entire series.

Yeah its weird how Montreal has a home away from home in Ottawa.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

No


Also All Original 6 teams are in the playoffs!!

Respect your elders!!

 

[kassatsu]

Root Sports just said Pens had the best TV ratings of all NHL teams. Not sure if I believe.

 

[cashman]

Joe Nieuwendyk is out as the Stars GM.

Jim Nill from the Red Wings is the new guy. I don't really follow hockey, but is this a good move? Twitter seems to think so.

I thought it was only 3 teams that were guaranteed from each division. As in, one division could end up sending 5 while the other sends only 3.

Jets in next year, at the expense of the Wings. Book it!

Now to watch a game that actually matters. Queens/San Jose.

Well there's no way we get home ice now so fuck everything I don't care what happens.
