LA is impressing me! I hope they sweep the Canucks, so I don't have to see that goofy little kid with the headphones, or the greenmen back in Vancouver until next year.

And the Pens...wtf? Philly was impressive, but the Pens were brutal. This doth not bode well for the Penguins of Pittsburgh.

Is Vancouver burning yet? That President's Cup is a kiss of death more often than not.

He and his father attend more games each season than 99% of this board will attend in their lifetime. Noise protection for developing ears is a very responsible decision IMHO.

Actually the responsible decision would be to either buy the kid his/her own seat, or leave the kid at home if they can't take the noise level at a hockey game.

I was being facetious, mainly about how annoying the canucks fans are, and you popped in, right on cue

Any warm body would look good against the B's last two games.
Absolute no pressure on goal, challenge this kid quit taking shots from the point.
A lot of players are not competing,they got to get their head out of their asses.

Disagree. I thought Holtby has played great and made some great saves.

Pavs gets in a fight. Lol not his area of expertise.

Sorry, Craig is a friend.

Hawks down 2-1 after 1. Coyotes definitely have the better goalie.

Who the hell is Holtby? Has he been around all year? (Not a caps fan, so this guy is news to me!)

Lots of 5 minute majors so far in the playoffs. I don't think I like it.

Thursday with 14 seconds left, only to lose in OT.

Tonight, 5 seconds left, and a W.

Karlsson should wear a dress for game 3. What a little *****.

Hagelin should be suspended for his elbow to Alfredsson's head. Since he was concussed earlier this year, it may be lights out for his season after that one.

Carkner is a dirtbag. Where is Joey Kocur when you need him? That little prick wouldn't have dared to play again in the series if he were still playing.

Kicking Dubinsky out as the third man in was a bs call. Although technically correct, it was not reflective of why the rule was created. They messed up on the intent of it there.

Ottawa gets the credit for playing well. Game three should be an escalation of the bad blood from the first two games of the series.
