The Hockey Thread

Agreed. When it was clear the B's couldn't win I wanted them to take those two out no matter the repercussions. Not injure them mind you, don't condone that. But I wouldn't have minded someone coldcocking Bennett right in his stupid face for that dirty shot to Marchand.

And Tkachuck I always want someone to lay his stupid ass out.

The Columbus Blue Jackets are reportedly looking at hiring Peter Chiarelli.

I'll laugh my ass off if they do.

Of course! They couldn't make a stupider decision!

Remember the Mike Babcock debacle from last year? Lmao.

You're hired! You're fired! Thanks for stopping by!

Let's go Dallas!

 

[canadaguy]

Good start to this one

 

[MC74]

Ugh, shades of the first period in the last game, except Edmonton is converting on their chances this time. C'mon Dallas, you're better than this.

Or you know, Edmonton is maybe pretty good

 

[MC74]

They indeed are. There's no question that this team has the making of a bonafide cup contender.

Their defense has gotten substantially better this year. If they get a goalie who can steal games (or Skinner becomes one).... Look out

 

[MC74]

Robocop!

Much agreed, they've come a long way over the past decade. From perpetually dwelling in the basement and being one of the league's laughingstocks to becoming a force to be reckoned with. I'm happy for their fanbase. They've suffered many years of futility, the first attempt at the rebuild being grossly mismanaged. It's onwards & upwards from here.

DALLAS HAS TIED IT BAH GAWD!

 

[MC74]

Wyatt Johnston! 3-2 DAL

Stars win game 3! Man, this has been an exciting series thus far. No matter who wins, this has been the best playoff series thus far imo.

Ahem. Dallas is winning.

Florida tied the series at 2-2 a piece.

Let them tire eachother out so the winner of Dallas/Edmonton can mop the floor with them.

 

[Crystal]

FIFY

Let them tire eachother out so the winner of Dallas/Edmonton can mop the floor with them.

To be fair, I think that's happening anyway.

 

[rktaker]

To be fair, I think that's happening anyway.

I think the Rangers can beat Dallas, and maybe Edmonton? at least I hope so

 

[MC74]

As much as I'd love to see the Rangers hoist the cup, I still think a team in the West is winning the cup again this year. Between Dallas & Edmonton, those are going to be tough opponents to beat.

 

[rktaker]

Rangers will have to rely heavily on Shesterkin and hope he can carry them to the cup against either team

 

[MC74]

Wyatt Johnston and the Stars are up 1-0 just a minute into the game.

 

[MC74]

Logan putting some Stank on it. 2-0 DAL.

 

[MC74]

And the lead is gone. 2-2 end of the first.

 

[MC74]

Well, that was quite the turn of events.

 

[canadaguy]

edmonton/vancouver: whichever team wins this series will get swept by whoever wins the dallas/avs series. book it

 

[MC74]

Ryan Suter. That is all I need to say regarding Dallas tonight. @Crystal

The Oilers played an excellent game tonight, but man, watching former Leafs do well on other teams hits hard. Seeing how well Zach Hyman & Connor Brown are doing with the Oilers makes me miss having them around. Hyman is still the loveable workhorse and is thriving alongside McDavid, while Connor Brown is a forechecking & PK machine.

Second round felt like there were like at least 10 former Flames contributing. Like if we could have kept all that together....

I hear you, doesn't help that there are former Flames thriving in Florida either.

 

[MC74]

Panthers take the 3-2 series lead. Hard to see the Rangers bounce back from this.

 

[Cam]

Let's go Starssssssss

 

[MC74]

Damn right!

Stars Dude!

The Dallas Stars logo fits in nicely with his name.

 

[canadaguy]

You'd have to be pretty lame to cheer for the Stars I'll tell you what
