Ovi on suicide watch. Gonna go hang out in Cali with ozzy

I think Ovi is going to the IIHF World Championships. Fuck...

Praise be to the storm. I'm in. Where's my new Tampa avatar

 

[ElephantShell]

Phil Kessel with 2 goals and an assist to lead his team to the eastern conference final.

3 years ago I never thought I'd see that happen. Happy for Phil.

 

[jello44]

Lightning better fucking win.

 

[Socreges]

You're welcome, penguins

Lol please

Canucks get the credit for a terrible decision

I love how dumbass Healy is acting like no one wanted Bonino. He was traded, not waived

[megachao24]

The District of Columbia continues to not win, since 1991.

Spoiler

Since 2004 if you want to include D.C. United for whatever reason.

 

[fallout]

I'm looking forward to the Lightning and Pens. Should be good.

 

[Slurmer]

Lightning better fucking win.

Do you really think they have a chance? Pitt is much better than them.

 

[a916]

What's the latest on Stralman and Stamkos? Last I heard they were both very close with Stamkos just waiting to come off blood thinners (who knows when that is)

 

[purg3]

Feels Good.

Tampa is going to be a tough matchup for the Pens.

 

[Calamari41]

Oh did he go through you guys first? Part of the Bieksa deal right?

 

[Futureman]

Let's interview Crosby and his 0 points tonight cbc

Canada is 2nd tier nation, NBC Sports got the game winning boy.

 

[iLLmAtlc]

Penguins got a pretty fascinating dynamic with a 1st line player on every line. The bonino line has to be 2nd on most teams and they get to face 3rd pairing defenders and forwards.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

another shot:

Not that it matters anymore.

 

[Socreges]

You really must start following the NHL

 

[calder]

I don't mind the caps but I'm glad the pens won.

Also my 6 year old niece picked the Pens/Lightning in the East and Blues/Preds in the West on her playoff bracket. SPOILERS: the Blues beat the lightning in the SCF if anyone wants to know how it ends.

 

[RedRum]

Lawd

Yeah. This was seriously god telling the Caps I got your back..

 

[Red_Man]

What are the odds that Ovechkin is tanking the first round so he can go play at the Worlds? Of course he'd never admit that, but I wouldn't bet against a Philly upset.

He waited until the 2nd round to tank! What a lazy commie.

 

[ryan299]

All the talk between series will be about Fleury and Murray

 

[ZeroGravity]

What's the latest on Stralman and Stamkos? Last I heard they were both very close with Stamkos just waiting to come off blood thinners (who knows when that is)

Stralman will almost definitely be back at some point during the next round.

Stamkos is still completely up in the air.

Fuckers should have waited in line instead of this farce!

Stralman will almost definitely be back at some point during the next round.

Stamkos is still completely up in the air.

Ron Maclean mentioned pretty casually that he heard stamkos was really close. Dunno how credible it is but being a good Ontario boy he might have some sources.

 

[Calamari41]

Once a player leaves I stop remembering facts about them

 

[User 479360]

Poor Caps. Can't buy playoff success

 

[Yawnier]

Ahahahaha that post was golden.

Penguins got a pretty fascinating dynamic with a 1st line player on every line. The bonino line has to be 2nd on most teams and they get to face 3rd pairing defenders and forwards.

That line has been winning us games since they brought in Sullivan as head coach. It's too hard for teams to match up when you still have to worry about two other lines that have Sid and Geno.

 

[Alucard]

Let's look back at the Pens' body of work so far these playoffs.

Round 1 - light up hall of famer Henrik Lundqvist for 10 goals in the final 2 games of the series. Win in 5 games.

Round 2 - knock off the President's Trophy winners and this year's Vezina winner in 6 games.

These things said, the Lightning will be tougher than either team for the Pens.

 

[jello44]

idgaf who is better.

I just want the Pens gone.

 

[RedRum]

idgaf who is better.

I just want the Pens gone.

LOL

 

[purg3]

I don't think the pens won a single game against the Bolts this year. But I think most of those were before they got hot down the stretch?

This is Karma for Justin Williams for not signing with MTL.


Take that you dumb son of a bitch

He technically is, he's 48 hours away from coming back... once he's off blood thinners. He's pretty much in game shape already.

Presidents Trophy, 120 point season, Vezina goalie season

6-6 playoff record

Crazy

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

That goal by Bonino is right up there with this other goal:

 

[Heretic]

Oh did he go through you guys first? Part of the Bieksa deal right?

The KesBoss deal, my man.

That goal by Bonino is right up there with this other goal:

Memories... I can still hear Lovejoy yelling "Where's Hillsy!?"

 

[A Serious Man]

Crushing the Caps dreams is so fucking delicious, my god. We have a very real shot at getting to the SCF and maybe even to win it. I can't believe I'm saying that considering where we were for the first half of the season.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

The Toronto Raptors of the NHL.

No one can be as terrible at sports as the raptors. Stop exaggerating

What dreams?

How long have you been watching hockey? It's the Caps, we knew they'd choke like a prom date at some point.

And any Caps fan who thought they had a shot is delusional.

Yeah it's crazy. This was a team that didn't even look like they were going to make the playoffs. Then they make a coaching change and it all comes together. They practically obliterate their longtime playoff nemesis in the Rags, and then take out the Presidents Trophy winner( and SCF favorite) right after that. Tampa is going to be a real test though, I wouldn't sleep on them.

Take that you dumb son of a bitch

Yeah so dumb, could have been playing for the 9th worst team in the league.

 

[Calamari41]

The KesBoss deal, my man.

Oh yeah, that's right. A lifetime ago.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Pittsburgh or Tampa?


Stamkos or Crosby?


Hmmmm
