/\ Yeah what a good pick up boston got there.. Now if we had somebody other than chara. rolleyes:

Chara is a bitch...as the leafs have shown his bitchness everytime they played ottawa inthe playoofs when he wa son the team...

Like i said ottawa can win the stanley cup and they still ahvenm't proven they can beat the leafs in the playoffs.

Dallas > Vancouver...i don't know what ya'kll smokin...Dallas severly outplays them.

1 series down, 3 to go......lets go Rangers !!

newsflash: leafs not in playoffs, NHL doesnt revolve around leafs, ottawa could win the cup and prove something its called they won the stanley cup in the last 60 years. leafs could beat the sens in the playoffs every year but if they dont win the cup it doesnt mean anything.

Sorry Colonel...Atlanta sucked HARD. annoy:

GO SENS!

"WHAT?"

lol best I could come up with, cant do shit at work, tried to erase the cup, have jagr taking a shit in his pimp chalice everything.

fuckin work pc annoy:

the leafs have won a good amount in the last 60 years.

right back in this thing. great game last night for the flames. fast paced, hitting, chances. rock:

Good fight, Pens fans. Hard fought series, but I just got the feeling that the Sens were firing on all cylinders. They got lots of supplemental scoring, played really tight team defense and Emery was rock solid.

Unfortunately (well, for you Pens fans) Crosby got NO help from a lot of Pittsburgh's top guns. I'm looking at you, Evgeni.

Anyhoo, onward and upward!

Calgary vs Detroit: Ya know, the fact that this series is tied doesn't surprise me at all. I knew Calgary would rebound at home. I dunno what it is about the Saddledome, but the Flames are unbeatable. Too bad Detroit has home ice advantage if it goes 7 games.

Anaheim vs Minnesota: Whatta nasty series that turned out to be. Good thing it ended when it did or someone was gonna get killed!

Vancouver vs Dallas: GAH! I was praying the 'nucks would finish Dallas off. Ah well. This is a REALLY boring series...

WHATCHA MEAN TOO BAD annoy:

lol

ps officiating was total fucking dick last night, Mickey Redmond was livid after the 2nd period because they were calling all these ticky tack penalties.

quote "This Garbage isnt hockey, thats for sure"

they mentioned that Calgary has a +47 advantage of calls in the saddledome(might show why they are god like in there)

wings need to get their fucking PK and PP going, it has been absolute shit.

some moron today on the radio called and said that the wings are better off without bertuzzi in the line up and should play Hudler instead oOo:

'tuz was the only fucking guy doing anything last night what game were you watching noob

refs have been brutal since the lockout. hooking and holding penalties are ridiculous. I was just watching some clips from 04 calgary/detroit. that was real hockey.

as for being +47 in penalties, well we were 28th in the league in PP% up until about march. Then it caught fire and we were at about 35% and shot up to 7th in the league. Don't know what out PP% is in this series, but it has to be super high. For most of the year calgary was horrible on the PP and PK, don't know exactly why that has changed.

top in the post season right now 6/22 27.3%

making detroits PK the worst 72.7%

ahahaha thats great. did you do that up zoner?

Yeah, I just did it here at work...heh heh. Printed off a hi-res version and posted it in the cube. biggrin:

it didn't matter in the season where the leafs played....the refs were against them...one game in the first 10 minutes 5 leaf players got high sticked...and they called the fifth one...and by the replays of the 5 highsticks...3 seemed like they were directly infront of a ref.

haha "i enjoyed myself"

and GG to Hasek's flopping around and taking a diving penalty once again

Crosby played the last 2 and a 1/2 weeks of the season and the playoffs with a broken foot

http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=2845020

ps. wings flames series is frickin night and day, its like whoever is at homehas a +75 skill rating.

McLennan a bitch, nice lumberjack chop to the midsection assholehe should be suspended for the rest of the playoffsor just as long as Simon got. Even Iginla should get some games for that spearing he gave schneider what a joke.

i have lost a ton of respect for that entire organization watching the last 5 minutes of that game. it was a deliberate meditated attack on franzen by bringing in some bitch ass back up for 15 seconds. then you have iginla slashing the shit out of people. its one thing to stir up shit its another to deliberately attempt to injure players with dirty hits and stick work in a game that is out of your grasp of victory.

A lot of the actions taken by Calgary players today was unacceptable, but I don't blame them for what happened.

The refs were totally unable to keep control of this game because they did not make any of the calls and the players took this into their own hands.

I called this when it happened:

Draper tries to elbow Nilson in the head:

http://www.recklesscaution.com/Draper_Elbow.mov

Then Nilson went after Draper and the media just goes wild about how Nilson is the worst guy on the planet. Nice that Draper will try to elbow a guy in the head but will not drop them against a non-fighting Sweedish guy when it's time to collect the bills.

Mclennan went nutzoid, but Detroits forwards have been in Calgary's crease all series. Kipper got ran a lot this game. I think Jamie saw that and wasn't going to take any shit or putt any punches.

http://www.recklesscaution.com/McLennan_Slashing.mov

Iginla getting a suspension for spearing, my ass.

http://www.recklesscaution.com/Iginla_Penalties.mov

The hit on Langkow was pretty low and pretty dirty in my books. Basically going for the knees. A denny gauthier hit.

http://www.recklesscaution.com/Langkow_Clipping.wmv


So if Iggy were to get games for spearing, give Draper games for intent in injure.

calgary benefited from whining about players in the crease all series yesterday. Maltby got shoved into kipper and they waved off that goal.

regardless its a nice rivalry brewing up

I lost my respect for the flames when they started talking sbit about the leafs...at least the wings have some REASON to have a say as they're close to our stanley cup total...but calgary has one...what you win one and you're the shit...

Iginla is an asshole...dude is overated....calgary is a bunch of boons...just like the senators...but not as much as the senators as all the big end game brawls seem to involve the senators these days...

WHOOO! Franzen with the sweetest revenge of all rock: rock: rock:

bring on the sharks/stars

YES! CALGARY'S FUCKING DONE!!!!!!!

that was a nice goal.

the west is stacked. the conference semi's are going to be fantastic.

funny "prayer" that my Buffalo friend has in his facebook profile

the stars will overcome the sharks mwah:

..CARN CANADIA!! mad:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZMEE7tlq6A

seeing as how they arent playing them, I will go ahead and take that bet.

Sorry about that ninty...

As much as I loathe your Flames, I do like to see Canadian teams do well in the playoffs.

I just hope Vancouver can put Dallas out tonight. Man, that series sucks so much ass.

I'll save my 2nd round predictions for tomorrow.

Meh...they had it coming. I doubt there are many teams that can give up 50 shots every night and only take 20 and expect to win a 7 game series.

Detroit was just all around better.

Next year.

At least this means the CFL season is that much closer.

nein..lol Im a temp stars fan tonight, I would rather play the stars than the sharks in round two kthx

I have my theory on what happened with McClennan...

Ok, so Detroit was bumping Kiprusoff a lot. There's no denying that. My theory is that Playfair (who's name is ironic in this instance) put McClennan out there for the sole purpose of hacking the daylights out of any Wing that came even close to the crease. I theorize that this move was to send a message to the Wings that the Flames weren't going to put up with the crease-crashing anymore...and by using McClennan the Flames wouldn't lose a player they'd need.

That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Kind of a bullshit called game by the refs but at least another Canadian team makes the 2nd round rock:

canucks go on

sharks or ducks will go onto the finals in the west

Buffalo in the east...and devils will knock out the sens in the second round

Detroit better not feel comfoprtable...going from one fo the worst playoff teams ive ever seen in the flames...to one of the best ive seen in the sharks.

lol not a single espn "expert" picked the wings to win the series.

also FUCKING western conference. pls move wings to the east. tired of all this 10 pm start shit and flying to the west coast

Canucks YES!!! Fucking woot...I LOATHE the Stars. Trevor Linden 4TW! HAW HAW!

everyone on TSN picked detroit. If I wasn't a flames fan, I would have picked detroit, so I don't know what their smoking.

and you guys should be in the east, and so should a number of other teams ie: chicago, columbus etc. but there are not enough teams in the west.

its gonna be a tough series no doubt against the sharks their PP scares the shit out of me, they beat up detroit 3 games to 1 in the regular season but 2 of those games had Osgood and MacDonald in net..lol

if Detroit can stay out of the box i like their chances with 5 on 5 play

Detroit should be in the east....even the leafs wer ein the west only like a decade or so ago well moreso now...and in the playoffs the leafs are almost guarenteed a 7 pm start for all their games unless it the stanley cup finals against a west team...but who know sthey oculd veen accomodate that
