Carolina's too good...
no problem with you believing though...
and if they win...as Bug said...many...many props...

Is it just me or is Ty Conklin shouldering too much of the blame for the final Carolina goal?
I mean, he's one of only 2 people (3 in a stretch) that could be blamed, but, I think Jason Smith deserves as much blame as Conklin. He had to have not been able to see Brind'Amour or I'd think he'd have played that a helluva lot differently. (Though, I'm not sure that Conklin saw him until the last moment either, hence the hurried spin-a-roonie and poor pass.)
I mean, with Brind'Amour coming from what would have been Conklin's right (at the time), he should have stayed down the boards/on the red line for a pass from Conklin. To rush in there (with Rod coming off the other wing), he essentially put Conklin in a sandwich.
Chris Pronger and Ryan Smyth didn't provide any help at all (after letting Brind'Amour FLY through the offensive zone virtually untouched - I mean, I'm not advocating taking a penalty, but they let Brindy in and didn't get back and help out at all).
Did Conklin panic? Heck yeah! Does he deserve all the blame he's getting? Some, but I don't know about the amount that he's getting.
Check out the highlight on NHL.com and see if you don't agree.
Well...I've watched it a few times...and with less than a minute left in a tie game...
in that situation...with another Edmonton player there...and a Hurricane player rocketing towards the puck (and I agree that Brind'Amour should have been a bit more hampered), Conklin had no business leaving the crease...
Hockey 101...with less than a minute left...of a tie game...you protect the crease...period...
it was an amateur mistake...by a professional player...
that may very well cost them the series...even though it's early.
If they somehow win that game...with their goalie potentially out for the series...it would have been an incredible lift...
I don't know...I do think there were mistakes made leading up to that goal...but overall...Conklin fucked up...
one more thing...
Cam Ward gave up 4 goals...yes...but I've gotta tell you...some of the saves he made were flat out fucking incredible. This kid...once he gets his regular season nicks...is going to be a superstar...
and Carolina is a goalie rich season...

Taught the first half of the class today...got out early...
thought of making another attempt at the game...then thought not...
am home...ready to watch from my living room...by the way...
Carolina is drilling them right in the face...
SCORE!!!!
5-0...
great call on the 4th goal...
Edmonton is getting dominated right now...
I don't think the series is over...but Edmonton better fucking come up with something on Saturday...
So, do the Oilers forgive Conklin for the giveaway and give him the start in game 3 or does Jussi get another chance?
True, the Oilers came back down 2-0 against the Sharks, but your right, they gotta do something, they do play well at home though.....Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Bug...no offense...but if you think that Carolina and San Jose even have the mildest in comparisons...you are mistaken...
not to mention the fact that the goalie that was playing against San Jose is resting and relaxing...
Edmonton isn't out of it...I definately agree...but if they play anything at all like they did in the third period...and they played as bad as anyone has against the Canes in the playoffs...then this series is over...
And Cam Ward just turns games with some of his saves...
As good as San Jose was...Joe Thornton played like the wasted skin off a cunt in that series...
and without him...San Jose has no shot at winning anything...
Marleau played well...
but they just weren't the same team after the trip overtime...
I'm not completely putting the final nail in Edmonton's coffin just yet....
I'd be shocked if Edmonton wins the series now, but like Bug said, Edmonton has a clear advantage playing at home....
The only crowd that I've heard this year that's as loud as the one in Edmonton is in Montreal...
So, although I think they'll split in Edmonton, I wouldn't be completely surprised if the Oilers take both at home....
Or maybe it's just me hoping for a 7th game....

How about Cam Ward! Sure the Canes are giving them nothing, but he is making some tough saves when he has to.
Ryan Smith is infuriating to watch.
I think he is just overated.
Conklin will start, even though Markonnen wasn't the problem at all.

Russia relents on NHL transfer deal
June 09, 2006
Sportsnet.ca News
Sportsnet.ca -- The Pittsburgh Penguins will be among the most relieved to learn Russia will soon join the other federations in the current transfer agreement with the National Hockey League.
Sources tell Sportsnet Russian clubs have signed off on the deal, clearing the path for the NHL and IIHF to soon make it official.
Evgeny Malkin, Pittsburgh's first-round pick (second overall) in the 2004 Entry Draft will now be able to make his long awaited NHL debut without having to engage in what could have been a nasty battle with his Russian club team, Magnitogorsk.
Currently the NHL contributes $9 million annually into the transfer agreement. With the Russian involvement that figure is likely to jump to $12 million per year. The IIHF governs how the funds are dispersed among the participating federations.
Well that's good fucking news...to be honest with you...
I'll tell you something...if fucking Carolina gets suckered into dealing Jack Johnson...their #1 prospect...AND their first round pick...to move up in the draft to take Jordan Stahl...
Malkin and JJohnson side by side...at 20ish...would be a major multi-faceted defensive tandem for years to come...
and...
Pittsburgh would still have a #1...
Edmonton is up 1-0 in the first period...
I thought they dominated play early...
but you can slowly see Carolina working their way back into the game...
they were working a little to much to score on the last power play...
if they start taking more shots...instead of looking for the perfect shot...
They'll win this game...
Good game so far, Markonnen is hanging in there pretty good, looks alot more relaxed out there....
Don't you think it's more the Edmonton D...and hitting though?
Ward has been nothing short of fantastic...
and for once...edmonton is controlling the face-offs...which have killed them in the first two games...
good power plays so far as well...
but Edmonton hasn't been able to capitalize...
they should be ahead more than 1-0...
Yeah, and not getting a goal on a 5-3? Thats not going to cut it....
GGGGGOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLL.....
The Captain shuts this crowd the fuck up...
great game so far...
Yeah...that 5 on 3 was painful to watch...
WHOOOOO!!!
2-1.....
Smyth & the Oilers get a gift...we may still have a series after all
God what a shit goal...
I have no idea how that wasn't goalie interference...
but fuck it...Carolina should have never let him in that close for a rebound...
no excuses there...Carolina fucked up...
Well...Edmonton DID pla about as good as they could play today...no doubt about it...
extra attacker out...
less than a minute left...
great fans in Edmonton...
well...that's the game...
and we have a series...
Bro, you lost me there...Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Defensive tandem ??
I know you know Malkin is a center....
Please expound....
Another great game....
Lucky ass goal to win it, but it was legit, what're ya gonna do...
And, as I said, Edmonton is far from out of it...
If they win Game 4, it'll go 7 games....
Great series...
my bad on Malkin...
home ice...someone has to win at the other's place...
The curiousity for me will be if the Canes play better now that they are a bit more acclimated to the Oiler Ice...
I'm trying to figure out why the fuck I thought that Malkin was a defenseman...lmfao...
I have no earthly clue...
Didn't I give you that link with his highlights ??
Not sure if this is still up there or not...

Now way they could disallow that goal after losing sight of the other second goal
If Ward had moved to stop puck and was then impeded by an Oiler who (wasn't pushed in) then it would have been goalie interference.
As it was, it still could have been called for GI if Ward had made an effort to make contact with Smyth...
As It was, the fat fuck should have tried to skate and see that the biscuit was just sitting there between Ward's legs and not under him.
I think the last goal WAS a goal...
I didn't at first...but after I heard the rule...it was obvious that it was a goal...
as for "the second goal," NOBODY SAW IT...
he blew the whistle...everyone stopped playing the puck...and then it got punched in...remains to be seen if it would have ended up being a score or not...
either way...a great game...
no doubt...as lucky as the last goal was...it was a legit goal...
After the game, a goal judge I think, said the puck was hit by the goalie with his stick, and then hit the Carolina player, and then went in, I dunno.....
Game 4 about to start...
Carolina needs to shut that crowd down early...
I know you guys were discussing the Jack Johnson to the Pens rumors a week or two ago, but it appears it's picking up steam...

Rumor: Jack Johnson might be offered for (Pens') number two pick
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Interestingly, there is already speculation that the Hurricanes are probing trade possibilities with the Pittsburgh Penguins as a means of possibly landing Jordan with the No. 2 pick in the draft and creating a set of Staal bookends.
One rumour suggested that the Canes might be willing to move University of Michigan defenceman Jack Johnson to the Pens for the second overall pick, with rearguard Erik Johnson of the U.S. National Team developmental program in Ann Arbour, Mich., expected to go first overall to St. Louis.
"It's crossed my mind," said Eric Staal when asked about playing with his brother. "I've never played with any of my brothers, ever. It would be different for me, and really exciting."
I saw another article about it today...in a very random place...
Edmonton just scored...on a great fucking play...
Horrible fucking D...
great give and go by Edmonton...
penalty...
gotta make it up now...
Yeah, great pass...
Bro, looking more like 7 games...
Until of course the Canes just scored to make it 1-1.....
GOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!!
Now get another quick goal...and shut these fuckers up...
