NHL Playoffs

[Bluefalcon]

Wings and Sharks should just shake hands before Game 4 and get it over with. We've got a rookie goalie who can't stop a beachball right now. 4 goals against each game is'nt gonna get you many wins in the playoffs.

Mark, I gotta give your boys credit. They are playing solid hockey all around.

Flower finally had the Pens that he needed to. Halak continues to be excellent for the Habs, which makes me uneasy.

Damn, how about Boston up 3-0? Complete control over Philly. I had the Flyers taking that seires in 7. LOL, probably not gonna happen.

Dustin Byfuglien with the freakin hat trick, that was awesome to watch. Hawks looked like the team they were all year last night. I'm still worried with the inconsistency of Niemi in net, great some nights AWFUL others. Helps to have the D corps in front of him playing well.

I was wearing my centennial Habs Mike Cammalleri jersey some during the Caps series just to get a rise out of some of the local fans. One of my friends asked if he could borrow it and take it to the Burgh, I told him no way. Fans around here are mainly fans because the Caps have been good lately. Most of them couldn't tell you one thing about Langway, Dale Hunter, Dino Ciccarelli, Kevin Hatcher as a Cap. Most people not at the games wouldn't have a clue who Cammalleri was, so for the most part, it went unnoticed. It would be a bit different in Pittsburgh where the fan base is a lot more established.

@ Mark, good choice with the Cammalleri Jersey, ever since I saw him playing with the Kings I knew he would be a force to reckon with, Im just glad he is now on a Canadian team. Im also glad that you mentioned Rod Langway, a Winnipeger if im not mistaken or atleast he lived here for a bit, or was it Mike Ridley?? Anyways, Hunter, Dino & Hatch are some of the best players to ever wear a Caps Jersey as well, Ill never forget Dino's hit on Turgeon in the playoffs way back lol. Hell, even Mike Liut / Don Beaupre were a good goalie tandum!

Hopefully they do come back to Winnipeg. It's just a joke right now in Phoenix, it NEVER worked and was NEVER going to work. There's a few other franchises (Atlanta, Florida etc) that should pack up and move north also.

Thanks, yeah, he's a player. I usually like to get jerseys of guys who aren't the big names, sads that there's so many good players people have never heard of. Got the 1910 - 1911 jersey, love the throwbacks ( http://www.amazon.com/Montreal-Canadien ... B002T9ODSA ).

As for the news, I hope it is true. Hockey in the desert was a failed experiment and it pains me that Canada only has 6 teams. Every year, I pull for the Hawks or a Canadian team to win the Cup, been a LONG time since I've been right, hopefully this year.

Jaroslav Halak is putting a scare in a lot of people, he's put on a great show, probably one of the best post season performances by a goaltender in 5 years or longer.

Sharks are finally in the Conference finals for the 2nd time ever! Great to see them finally get over their mental issues when they face Detroit and play to the level they're capable of and how they've looked like in the regular season. I think the 7 - 1 blowout in Game 4 actually helped us.

Bring on the Canucks! Go Pens!

Looks like the best hockey players are still ocupied with playoff in the states,atleast thats what it looks like when you see how they have done it so far in the world championship in Germany...
Lets hope it will turn for the USA,after all the matches in Germany has just started;)

Cammalleri shines again last night. Panic in Pittsburgh? Never would have thought that the possibility would exist of a Habs / Bruins or Habs / Philly ECF would exist. It si going to be really interesting to watch going forward.

My Hawks better come out playing physical hockey again, get in Luongo's grill all night. For some reason, they seem to play flat at home and much more energized on the road. Hopefully they close it out in Van and make the flight to San Jose.

Sorry about that, I know the Sharks matched up better overall with the Canucks. Can't wait for this series to start up. Glad the Sharks have home ice as well, for some reason, the Hawks are playing MUCH better on the road.

Should be a great series, and I'm looking forward to the possibility of an Original 6 finals.

LET'S GO HAWKS!
