      At least 6, but man did they look good last night!!!

        Fookin Blackhawks pull another one out of their hat last night in MN!!!!!!
        Crawford had a great game and hopefully another one up there to wrap things up... MN is going to throw everything they have left at them in game 4 though...

              Sorry Canada, your last shot at getting Lord Stanley's Cup back, just got eliminated. Does it hurt worse when you think, even though we know it's not possible, you have a chance at it? Or would you rather the Canadian teams just play the regular season, and leave the real season to the real teams from America? Don't worry, we'll let you borrow Lord Stanley's Cup for a few days this summer, before it takes its rightful place back in an American city, where it belongs.

                  Idiots, the both of you!!!

                  LOL. Well, we all know that there should probably be at least 2 more teams in Ontario, another in Quebec.

                  All would be amongst the to 12 in terms of revenue in the league but of course we have to stay the path of Bettman with hockey in places where no one cares.

                  Still mostly Canadians on all NHL teams (about 50%) although the US is finally producing some great players.

                    The penalty that led to the Rangers tying goal in the second was a joke. Girardi knew a capital was behind him and just waited to be touched. Brutal

                      A team is coming to Quebec (Panthers?) but the economics don't support more Ontario teams. Both Toronto and Buffalo squashed the Hamilton expansion push but there is no way that team would have lasted had they been formed...

                        Hockey is the greatest sport there is, played by some of the toughest motherfuckers there is.

                        Those faggy ass Europeans are so in love with that foot fairy game, they have no idea what they are missing. Virtually any human being that can walk, can play soccer, and play it okay. Any person, young or old, can walk onto a soccer field and kick a soccer ball around. Not very many people can slip on a boot with a knife on the bottom of it, grab a stick, and handle the puck while skating. Hell, most couldn't even stand up on that ice.

                        Did you guys see the motherfucker on the Rangers standing in the bench area digging his broken teeth out of his mouth, and throwing them down? Never missed a fucking shift after taking a stick to the mouth! You got all these PUSSY athletes in all the other sports that have to sit for weeks when they stub their fucking toes, and these guys get their faces broke by sticks and pucks, and rarely miss a shift!

                        HOCKEY IS THE GREATEST FUCKING GAME EVER INVENTED!

                          Coolest sport on earth!! Unless you have played them game "at any level" most people will never understand the fucking skill level involved in our sport, let alone what's required in the NHL Playoffs. Go Blackhawks/Go Rangers!!!! Gimme that original 6 Final Series.

                              The economics don't support it? Maybe for Buffalo, but Ontario could have 5 teams and they would all be a smashing success.

                              The Leafs of course want to protect their monopoly, but truth be told they would benefit from an actual local rival other than Montreal. Buffalo doesn't count unfortunately.

                              Its absolute insanity there isn't at minimum 2 more Ontario teams

                                Maybe in Buffalo? Oh, I hope Terry Pegula doesn't go belly up with one of the largest season ticket bases in the U.S., after two shitty and pathetic seasons no less....

                                When the fuck do you speak for Leafs fans? They actually are huge rivals with the Sabres when both teams don't suck. There is also a team in Ottawa they have a bit of a rivalry with, but again rivalries only matter when both teams are quality. Go back to trying to "fix" Zack Kassian by giving him interweb handjobs dude. But hey! Put 50 teams in Ontario!! The more the merrier!! It wasn't that long ago Ottawa folded, then was reborn. If you have a hard on for turning the NHL into the OHL have at! But there aren't the players or the consistent fan bases for it. If it's so "easy" my delusional friend: explain why Quebec still doesn't have a team? Or Winnipeg just got theirs back? It's easy to fantasize about plopping teams everywhere, but then there were once teams that folded in economic downturns. Not to mention the talent base for hockey is already getting diluted...
