The Official NHL Thread

I don't get to see them much here.. how are they looking? Is goal tending finally solid there?

Goaltending is beyond solid. Eddie LAck was their backup but Ryan Miller got injured for the last 25 games or so.

Lack put in a .927 or so save percentage to finish 5th in the Conference and 2nd in their division...not too shabby.

Horvat is looking more like a top 5 pick and looks nothing like most kids...solid and NHL size.

Vrbata was a great pickup and gives us a second line, Sedins are 8th and 11th in NHL scoring so that worked out well this year.

They will beat Calgary but if they play Anaheim eventually that might be tough to pull off. You never know though.

Hartley fined 50k...nice.

I love Hartley!!

[So this is love]

Another great night of hockey.......I love this time of the year...Go Habs Go. Cheers! to you all.

[Romeo Delight]

Hartley has done a great job this year

[So this is love]

OK now...my Habs are in control of the hottest team in the nhl in the last two months of the regular season. Seriously.. what a surprise I was not expecting this to be 3 and 0 in fact I was expecting the worse...what do I know? Its the playoff and its war...I really fear Tampa Bay this year in the east. Although, I was surprise they lost the 1st game to Detroit...I don`t fucking know anything anymore, the NY Islanders are in the drivers seat right now against Washington.

In the NHL its simple, the team that plays the least number of games wins the Stanley Cup. In other words its gonna be Anaheim vs Montreal and .......I have been wrong before...

If you want to make fun of me go see the zack kassian showcase. It's half a lark and half trying to motivate the Canucks only chance of success this playoff season

Well thank goodness you're a sports psychologist motivating multimillionaire sluggards to play better...

Can you start a site for Hodgson?

[So this is love]

I agree with you FLAMMA about the Canucks vs Flames, great to watch btw its on right now.

[Nickdfresh]

I'm an Avalanche fan, but I'm also a fan of whoever the Wings are playing!

You're just saying that to fuck Kristy.

[Nickdfresh]

Leading his team to victory in MSG against #1 team in the league...I'd say that is about all the character I would want from a leader on the Pens.

Oh god, you're so full of shit dude! He beat Team America in the Olympics? On an underachieving team of all-stars he beat the yanks! oh God! What character!!

[Romeo Delight]

Yep...glad you agree

[So this is love]

Yep...glad you agree

And the Flames will win this series... Vancouvers window for a Stanley Cup has closed a few years ago. Cheers!

I think Nick is lashing out...making no sense whatsoever because he and the entire Buffalo community and Sabres management believed that they could tank the season from the start and win the draft lottery...Connor McDavid, the next generational player...much like Sidney Crosby.

Hockey karma as usual is alive and well and gave the Sabres exactly what they deserved. Its ok Nick, its not like the Sabres have any chance even with McDavid.

[Romeo Delight]

Hockey karma rewarded the hard work and dedication of one resilient Sidney last night. It was a gutsy effort...chop full of character moments.

[Romeo Delight]

Well, it is going to go 7 I think.

Vrbata is basically invisible for the Nucks...probably dreaming of playing in the Spengler Cup instead

Then again, he could score a hatty in the third...streaky kind of player.

Sbiza looks bad...looks good during the regular season against average teams getting through the regular season grind, but I don't really like his play.

Calgary doesn't have anywhere near the depth so in a 7 game series I like their chances even if the y lose this game

[LoungeMachine]

You're just saying that to fuck Kristy.

Yeah, I kinda fucked that up for Vonnie.....



My bad.
