    This league is so lame now. Only a matter of time before it gets like the NBA.

    Well the guy running the league is from NBA ...

    As for your previous comment about being a bush league ... As soon as the instituted the shoot out and awarded teams who loose in OT and shoot out a point it became bush ...

    going to be tough going into San Jose down 2-0

    could it be back to back first round exits

    it's probably Luongo's fault anyways

    Poor Lou... always the shitty end of the stick. Love the positive attitude though props to him.

    Only liking two series so far- Ott/MTL and The Mighty Wings Vs the Walt Disney Ducks. :lol: i kid

    Of course im bias on the one series. Bos/TO meh was expecting TO to do better but Boston is a power force... The rest of the series are boring to watch. imo.

    Everybody likes to pick on Lou ... how about the Sedins step up a little more. I don't see Vancouver winning a cup with Sedins or this make up of their team, they still don't seem gritty enough for playoff hockey.

    So how many games does Abdelkader get ... more than the Ottawa player?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... XsLg3QXR8Q

    From this video it appears he left his feet and it appears his shoulder hit the ducks player in the head.

    At least 2?

    Yeah,shoulder hitting the head is what will get him a suspension.
    At the point of impact only his right foot is barely off the ice.
    I would think it can't be more than 2.Maybe only 1.
    Wings looked like shite.
    Terrible pp, and what was Howard thinking with that lame attempted swipe at Getzlaf.
    But those are just two examples of an all round crappy game.For me anyway.

    Isles dominating early. Havent seen the Coliseum sound like this in a loooong time.

    I agree 3 would be appropriate ...

    Isles were looking good till they took the 2 penalties
    giving Pitts 1:30 of 5-on-3 time.

    Isles got jobbed big time. Very weak call on Crosby. Predictable.

    It wasn't weak. Could have gone either way. The refs decided to call it.

    Yes it was.... brutal call, especially in OT. But it was Crosby.

    Win some and you lose some. It's the playoffs where fans whine about the officials and Sidney Crosby.

    No ones whining, I'm stating a fact. It was a bad call.

    The Golden Child went down to the ice very easily and got his call.

    Meh... A defencemen who just got beat puts both hands up high on a guy from behind, while the player with the puck is 15 feet from the net with a clear scoring chance... that's a legit call, and gets called every time. Not in the neutral zone, but on a clear scoring chance in OT, that gets called, even if the player goes down a little easy.

    He got 2 ... So once again the league is inconsistent.

    That's been the type of season they've had ... Look good some nights and bad the next. Even though the ducks lost game 2 they got a huge moral victory and seems to have carried over.
