    will the stanley cup finals be televised nationally this year? might want to check out a game or two...

    They are always televised nationally in Canuckland.


    is that edmonton?

    Sarcasm, yes/no...just in case it isn't...that is a nickname for us Canadians. I am not sure how it got started..

    Just checked the standings of the espn playoff pool. That was easy. thanks for playing ladies

    It ain't over yet chump. ;)

    yes it is. being the only one with luongo assures that.

    you're all welcome for my choice of boucher in round 2 so you could have a glimmer of hope.

    Sorry Fixer but you are still wrong. You are up 6 pts right now and while it is likely that you will hang on to win, it is not a sure thing. The current lineups not only run through the conference finals but the Stanley Cup Final as well. Goalies get 2 pts per win and 1 for a shutout. If Tampa Bay and Vancouver end up in the final, you could still lose. If TB wins and Vancouver loses, you could lose. Not to mention you and I have 5 other different players in our lineups so if mine outscore yours between now and when the cup is raised, you will lose.
    It's ok...I can understand how for a Flyers fan, being so close to a championship in anything can make you giddy, but it's not over yet. ;)

    3 5 on 3 goals in a matter of minutes...wtf...I want Vancouver to win, but something is fucked up in the NHL when 1 team gets so many 5 on 3's in such a short period of time...I will admit I haven't been watching closely...were the 5-3 pp blatant calls of iffy?

    The first 5 on 3 was from a high stick and a trip. While still on the initial PP SJ got a Too Many Men penalty, Van scores again, still on the PP SJ then puts the puck over the boards for a Delay of Game. That's what happens. Vancouver had biased calls through the first period and the start of the second. And San Jose had a bunch of 5 on 3s last game too.

    OK...wasn't sure...no excuse for to many men...sucks to be SJ.

    I'm not counting game 3, this series should have been over already. Go Canucks, finish this out so we can get a break before taking the next series.

    I'm so, so jealous. Have an amazing time and be sure to spill a little libation to placate the hockey gods. If you have a spare chicken to slaughter, that might help too :o :shock: ;):mrgreen:

    Isn't Sammi wearing the puckhead tomorrow? :lol::lol::lol: I say paint your face with either the hockey stick logo or the Johnny Canuck logo. Although any of the logos would be cool. Most importantly, have fun. The atmosphere is going to be electric . . . sorta like when Metamorphosis II starts playing ;):mrgreen:

    Boston isn't going to make it past the first round...
    Looks like the OP was severely incorrect in his prediction.
