April 11, 201214 yr Now, will they take the Russian who is clearly projected as number 1, or will they look to someone else who may fit the club more?

April 11, 201214 yr [bleep] edmonton. 3 1st overalls in a row? NHL needs to fix the lottery... this could spell disaster for the Jackets. my bracket. went for boom this time as opposed to safe picks. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
April 11, 201214 yr Rangers over preds, eh? That is bold...but certainly possible. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 12, 201214 yr Big upset tonight Phi over Pitt 4-3 in overtime after Pit had a 3-0 lead. Series not disappointing at all so far... "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 12, 201214 yr Unbelievable comeback by Philly. I thought Pittsburgh had the game won after the 1st. As for the Wings/Preds game, the refs were horrible. They weren't one-sided, but they were calling penalties for the most frivolous things. There's no way the two least penalized teams in the NHL acquire that many penalties. I saw maybe 3 legit calls against Detroit and 2 against Nashville. The rest were terrible calls. Officiating aside, Nashville played a hell of an impressive game. I think they're the real deal this year. Player since 2004.

April 13, 201214 yr Canucks better wake up or they're toast.It's just one game. Not time to panic yet. Although if they don't win game 2, then they'll be in a tough spot. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 13, 201214 yr Hope the Canucks win tonight. :). Any site where I can make a fancy playoff bracket? (like Faux's) Tonight's predictions:New Jersey @ Florida: 3-1 for NJ.Philadelphia @ Pittsburgh: 3-2 for Pittsburgh in OT.Detroit @ Nashville: 4-2 for Detroit.Los Angeles @ Vancouver: 5-2 for Vancouver. I can hope right? :rolleyes:. "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." "An imperfect man can do great deeds, and a great man imperfect ones.
April 13, 201214 yr I turned on the first game of the Kings-Cannucks game and it was intense. Couldn't believe it, I wish they had played like that when I saw them. If I don't end up going out tonight, I"ll probably watch the game for a bit.
April 14, 201214 yr pens-philly is the BEST series in this round. it's incredible. next game is just going to be filled with fighting. i had pens winning this series but how can you not cheer for philly. they're just the comeback kids of NHL. can pens rally against them? probably not so everyone's bracket is broken :lol::lol: as i'm typing this couturier scores his 3rd goal for a playoff hattrick. INSANE. how the heck did this guy get drafted so late ooooooh man. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::

If I don't end up going out tonight, I"ll probably watch the game for a bit.Yeah, that's a good series. But if you think that is intense, try watching Philly-Pittsburgh lol. Speaking of Philly/Pittsburgh...wow. Complete inability to defend on Pittsburgh's part. If they lose this series, all of Niskanen, Martin, Michalek and lovejoy should be replaced. Orpik and Letang are the only d-men they have who've played at all well this series. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti

INSANE. how the heck did this guy get drafted so late ooooooh man.I believe he was injured for a good part of the season, but going into the year (around the time of the 2010 draft) some scouts were ranking him #1, and you can see why.

April 14, 201214 yr nvm i don't want to jinx em yet. :mellow: Edited April 14, 201214 yr by Faux :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 ::
April 14, 201214 yr I was glad to see the Wings tie up the series tonight, but the refs were still terrible for both teams. At least the refs let a few hits on Weber slide after that little stunt he pulled in game 1. Also, seeing Weber make the mistake that led to Emmerton's goal was very satisfying :grin:.

April 14, 201214 yr Vancouver down to LA 2-0. Wow. From what I saw of the game last night (only about half of it) vancouver was the much better team too. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 15, 201214 yr Suter pushes one of our guys into Rinne and we get a penalty that leads to Weber's goal. Later on, we score with .1 seconds left and they claim time expired. Send these refs to the finals! Player since 2004.

April 15, 201214 yr Actually, all the shots I saw, the puck wasn't in the net until 0. I think it was the right call, didn't see the penalty though. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 15, 201214 yr Actually they reviewed the play in Toronto and you're right about the shot. I was thinking it was like basketball and soccer where if you shoot it before time expires, it still counts. Still should be 1-1, though. Player since 2004.

April 15, 201214 yr Author Refs are the whole reason. They made so many calls against the wings and then disallowed that goal. Absolute garbage. sig by Soa.....tip.it times.....art & mediadeviantart/flickr/last.fm/steam/twitter/tumblr/youtube
April 15, 201214 yr Refs have been sub-par this series, but Rinne was definitely on fire today. Player since 2004.

April 15, 201214 yr Wow. What an intense game. Fleury sure picked a bad time to suck though eh... "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
April 15, 201214 yr Yeah that was one of the best games I've ever seen. Philadelphia sure knows how to put on a show. Player since 2004.

April 15, 201214 yr Three games, twenty goals. Game three's are crucial - after two games I thought pittsburgh could come back - but no way now. "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
