Move Detroit to the East and make an original six division...then we'd be talking rivalry and great hockey
Bring Chicago too.. I hate them, but love to play them..
What would "west" hockey be at that point?
I was praying that LA would win so Detroit would play Chicago. Not because of the rivalry, but because I don't want any 10:30 pm matchups on a weekday. :evil:
Did anyone mention the Penguins clinching the "Worst Penalty Shot of the Year" award?
And 4 awful PPs in that period.
1 for 30 plus a terribly botched penalty shot. Ugh. I hope we play them next round.

If the Canucks win it'll be wings vs sharks and canucks vs predators...both will be good series.
If the wings play the sharks i think there are 3 keys for the wings...good goaltending (goes without saying), their d better move the puck out of their zone quick (might not be easy their d is aged), the longer the series goes it favs the sharks. You could probably say the same if they face the predators.

kaleta out tonight with a concussion (from another richards hit). grier may also be out.
richards has singlehandedly taken out half of the buffalo roster. he's a machine
They'll call it the Bodybag Series.

yep, as a pens fan you could see they were on borrowed time since croz and malkin have been out. They maintained but most of the wins came on shootouts. The pp is awful and if they somehow win game 7 they will be bounced with ease by the next team.
Next year though this team should be a beast.

That neal kid is scary good.
I like him, the goals aren't coming but he plays a great game. he went from brad richards to mark letestu as his center. When he has 87 or 71 on his line he will be pretty good.
Whatever happens Im cool. The Sabres werent supposed to make it in. I really feel like they have given their all as they will tonight. If they lose, it will be because they are just short on skill and experience. Very impressed with the effort and a developing team giving an Eastern Conference favorite a run for their money.
They were like 13th around the New Year. Still playing with the house's money.
Due to a scheduling conflict, I missed half the game on Sunday night.
Can anyone tell me how bad the officiating was in the Canucks game? Is it as bad as everyone is saying it is??
Don't act like you're not nervous. Do you really have confidence that Luongo can win a game 7???
if he can single handedly beat the entire country of USA and win olympic gold, i think he can handle a first round NHL playoff games 7 against the Shithawks. j/k
We will see tonight!!! I dont know what to think, pretty nervous, listening to local pre game shows on the radio with butterflies in the stomach. Good Luck to you! 3hr15 min till puck drop.

We watched the first half with a couple of indo-canadian guys from Burnaby... the bar owner was a hawks fan, it was a pretty distressing time... I saw Burrows get punched in the face and no call, and we all know for a fact if it was the other way around Burrows would have been in the box.
I heard about the interview but haven't watched it yet. Don Taylor was saying he went to Campbell first? i'll watch it now...
people have been calling in saying they feel the same way and cant get any work done.....i was walking around downtown wearing my jersey just now, not much of a vibe, there were many more jerseys out and about being worn earlier in the series. people have lost faith.
yeah he approached Colin Campbell first and told him what he was going to say. he wanted to him to hear it right from him. pretty stand up move, I approved.

I actually don't think goaltending will be the issue. I want to see if Vancouver has grown some guts and start to crash the net.
being a canadian, i kind of want at least 1 Canadian team in the 2nd round lucky for me i think that team will be the habs.
Don't act like you're not nervous. Do you really have confidence that Luongo can win a game 7???
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
And let's hope for a Buffalo & Vancouver win tonight. :P
yeah, if I was a B's fan I wouldn't want any part of the flyers in round 2 either. we all remember what happened last year
