Pens goaltending and defense improves by one simple thing....if Malkin stops turning the puck over in their zone!

Honestly, I think the islanders played us a lot tougher than Ottawa will. Isles have a great young team that is quick and physical, I think they will be in the top 5 of the East next year.

Ottawa has what the Isles do not....Craig Anderson. I guess we will just have to see.

Hoping yes for the Caps and no for the Bruins, though I expect it to go the exact opposite. :r

Wings playing well. Someone tell Howard that head snap flop looked horrible though. Soccer player style. Not looking good for Ducks

Looks like the Hawks will need to wait for the Western Finals to play the Sharks, Mike. Looking forwqard to that series which I fully expect to happen.

Oh no kidding hahaha! To be fair not giving u super sh!t as I've been a life long Leafs fan but also really like Boston so either one moving on is a good thing! Just want the Pens knocked out ASAP.

Western conference its going to be a shocker if the Blackhawks don't make it to the cup.

I was in LA for the cup at game 3 and 4 last year. Was amazin!

Glad Detroit pulled it out. Sharks Kings should be a fun serious. Just hope the Sharks don't get to banged up before getting to Chicago. I expect it to be pretty physical. Predicting Sharks in 6

Screw you EJ!

I think Sharks Canucks could go either way I have to go with Nemo and my boys.
While the Blues Elliot is hot, but LA went 3-0 against the Blues this year and Quick is playing well enough that with LAs skill and grit I cant pick the Blues.

You want to bet on the Wings Ducks series?

Glad you didnt bet me the Wings series. I appear to be beating you.

As for tonight. I am really not sure about my Bs pick now.

Apparently so does the Hawks brass. They posted Conference Finals tickets up for sale first thing this morning. Strangely none for sale on the Wing's website. I couldn't call one out if both were doing it. :D

I look forward to the series and not having to stay up till 1:30 AM to watch the end of each game. Thank the Lord we're moving east next year, although I will miss the frequent matchups against Chicago.

Honestly I thought the Wings were a coinflip to beat the Ducks. I think the Hawks will win this series I just hope the Wings can make it tough on them.


BTW, Mike I have been off CA for a bit but I knew you wouldn't pick the Wings to win a playoff series, even against the Ducks.

icehog3 05-13-2013 04:42 PM

Re: NHL 2013 Thread
 
Mike, the Hawks do this every year. The first two rounds before the playoffs start, then the 3rd round before the 2nd round starts, and the SCF before the Conference Finals start....so it's no slight to the Wings, just a way for the Wirtz family to make some interest with the fans' money if they don't advance.

I don't think it will be an easy series by any means, I just think the Hawks match better with the Wings than the Sharks...plus no coast to coast travel this round is a plus.

Once again rask makes a stop and then is totally out of the play and gives up an easy goal, same story all year.

Re: NHL 2013 Thread
 
IT really is amazing to watch him make a save and end up sprawled out on the ice 8 feet from the puck and leaving the entire net open...and he just freaking lays there.

I think BruinsFan on here is the only guy in the entire New England area that likes Rask. :r

Rask don't score goals,he should sew for non support.

I think on that last goal rask was at the court to file the lack of support papers, 2 feet out of the crease on the wrong side... :r :r :r

You can go ahead and say it ... Rask SUCKS.

Edit: While I was typing this he gave up the 4th goal .. wow.

Re: NHL 2013 Thread
 
lol Tom ..bastard!

So in one game Rask gave up 4 goals and they won because the Bruins scored 5, then he lost the next 3 games in a row. That's not very good.

Totally off topic but since there is a lull in the action they just "unveiled" the new Vikings Stadium

http://www.startribune.com/sports/vi...207297571.html

Not what was expected from the preliminary renderings but should be interesting...if they ever get $1 billion to build it.

Re: NHL 2013 Thread
 
Dude it wasn't him I think he really did a great job, to be fair the bruins had such a light schedule to start the year and a ton of games at the end, 10 games in 14 days or something (no i didn't look it up but i know it was something stupid). CJ woke them up that's for sure, but yes I would like to see what's around for goalies. Subban is in minors or juniors or whatever he's not even at the AHL level yet, that sucks.

Here comes the weird stats, the Bs are the first team to come back from 3 goals down in the 3rd period in the playoffs (maybe only in a game 7).
