Please keep all discussion in here folks so the other thread can stay uncluttered.:thumbup:

I respect your wishes.

Which is why I'll post the following in this thread;

1. First
2. Hockey is gay

ChromeDragon
3. Rob can't skate and is just jealous of those who can.

So why do you think things will go the way you picked guys? I was surprised to see a Dallas prediction for the cup final in there, but you never know.:thumbup:

EK9Hatch
I think I picked probably the most controversial pick so far...choosing the Sens over the Pens.

Even though the Pens are a great team, I don't think they have enough experience. I know the Sens have been playing shitty lately...but I wouldn't count them out just yet. ;)

With no goaltending against some of the biggest firepower in the league?

AudiInProgress
I *CAN* physically skate... I just can't find any in Edmonton that will fit me... And I'm not about to take a chance by ordering some $300 skates on Ebay - just to receive them and find out they don't fit me...

I love Ottawa !!! But as the season went I didn't find them bankable...heck at the start I would have picked them for the final but they just seemed to spiral down and down...

Goaltending & defense could be the downfall for the Pens but they've got good power play...and Ottawa hasn't been great with killing penalties

Won't be disappointed if the Senators can win this round though !!

Brian Murray's comments were stupid. I hope Ottawa loses. What a dum shit to think that Pittsburgh purposely lost their last game so they could play Ottawa. Moron! I hope Pittsburgh kicks the shit out of them.

Even if they did, too fucking bad. What does that say about his confidence in his team?

If you ask me I think Boston would have been a cakewalk for the Pens, so purposely playing the Sens would be a bad move. I want to see Canadian teams do well, but Murray and Emery don't deserve shit.

I refuse to cheer for the Flames or Ottawa, I don't mind the Habs however. I'd like to see San Jose win it. They've been a top team for a couple of years now and I think they're perserverance will pay off this year.

Ullie
i posted after the 9th but those are my exact picks from my actual pool.
hopefully i can still participate:fingersx:

EK9Hatch
You see that Ottawa player that got his face blown apart? Ouch....

Anyone have a update on his condition?

Jamie

blondy
You talking Volchenkov??

Yah there was a little blood huh :(

Good sign he got up on his own...thank gawd for visors

Think they said he would have returned just the helmet wasn't fitting well because of the swelling...suppose to be ready for the next game...

blondy
Holllllllleeee Montreal !!

What a start !! 34 second in and Canadians score
Not even 3 minutes in the game and they score again !!!

Great game...4 - 1

:bowdown:

EK9Hatch
The Habs did look good :thumbup:

Go Flames Go!!!!:bowdown: :thumbup:

Sorry Ullie. Wouldn't be fair to the others. I can still tally your score from the first round, but it won't count towards the total.

You can still pick the later rounds and those will count though providing the picks are in on time.

EK9Hatch
Oh God...I can barely watch the Sens vs Pens game anymore. I've seen teams get destroyed before, but this is just embarrassing. Ottawa has absolutely no drive or ambition to win or even try.

Jamie

ChromeDragon
Oh man, what is happening to the Caps? 4-2 at the end of the second. I hope they didn't lose that insane momentum they had coming into the playoffs.

Yea that surprised me too. Even if they loose this game...I think they'll pick it up in game 2.

Looks like the Sens found some life in them... 3-2 Pens now.

Jamie

EK9Hatch
Caps just scored! 4-3 Flyers now...

Jamie

EK9Hatch
Capitals tied it! 4-4.

Jamie

EK9Hatch
Capitals take the lead! 5-4.

Hahaha and the Sens shit the bed with 62 seconds left in the game! Lolzzzzz :lol:

Jamie

ChromeDragon
Fuck Ovechkin rules. I can't get over how great it is to see someone who busts their ass every second on the ice and actually makes it pay off. That game winner was all his hustle.:bowdown:

EK9Hatch
He is amazing! I love his reactions to his goals! :thumbup:

Jamie

blondy
I can't decide which team has looked the worst so far...

Boston or Ottawa :dunno:

4-3 GO FLAMES GO!!!! hahahahah sharks 3 goals in 3 minutes what garbage.

ChromeDragon
Fucking Sharks. Way to pack it in early. They phoned in the last two and a half periods.:rolleyes:

EK9Hatch
Looks like that series will go 6-7 fr sure.

I'm looking forward to the Sens loosing 12-0 tonight. :lol:

Jamie

EK9Hatch
Solid game for the Habs tonight. Looks like It'll be over next game! :D

:lol: true/ my buddies were saying it was because of Alfi

ChromeDragon
I knew I should have called a sweep on that one.:(

EK9Hatch
That was an embarrassment.

Montreal is looking great though! :thumbup:

Jamie

EK9Hatch
Well the Red Wings advanced in 6. Tonight the flames might be out and tomorrow is the Biggest game of the Playoffs so far imo...Game 7 of Montreal and Boston.

Jamie

ChromeDragon
I'm truly surprised that the Bruins have held on. That team has a lot of heart.

EK9Hatch
Yea and who knows what could happen in game 7. Its up in the air now. Habs will have to play a strong game to pull it off.

The Flames vs Sharks series turned out to be better than I expected. I still say San Jose takes game 7 though.

Jamie

RangerMan
GO HABS 5-0!

Their the only team i want to win the cup

:thumbup:

EK9Hatch
Great game! Habs deserved the win!

Jamie

tho_chi
Price is the the goalie in my other pool:D

2 shutouts so far. Sharks better take it tonight, I would hate seeing calgary advance

Agreed :mad:

Last but not least Sharks better put an end to the Flames but they have been playing so lazy this series...Flames may just take it away from them

:beer:

EK9Hatch
Haha the Sharks are really starting to kick the shit out of the Flames. :lol:

Jamie

blondy
Philadelphia winning on a penalty in OT...just doesn't seem right am still so angry about that

Thank goodness that the Sharks pulled it off...didn't totally crash & burn in my draft...they are going to have to really pick it up in the next series...

Hopefully the Sharks can find their pulse again

Bye bye Flames
:beer:

Second round matchups are decided folks, get your picks in. I'll tally up the points here tomorrow.

blondy
4 - 0 Detroit 2 periods in
Yah baby

blondy
Well the 2nd round is nearing it's end

Detroit/Colorado series was a joke other than a little back and forth in game one...Wings dominated ending it for the Avs with an 8 - 2 in game 4 HA

Dallas could of/should have put away the Sharks. They had a 3-0 lead but the Sharks managed game 4 and 5 wins...who says you can't come back from a 3-0 deficit?

Last Canadian team Montreal is gone...
Pittsburgh just put away New York...

:beer:

sam3s
GO Detroit

ChromeDragon
One of the most epic overtimes in history happening right now.

blondy
Isn't it great??

It's Monday for them now...bet none of the fans thought they'd be up part of the night

Amazing ice time for some of them


Sharks

Campbell 45:37
Vlasic 39:35
Rivet 38:34
Thornton 36:32

Stars:
Zubie 41:39 (incredible)
Ribeiro 40:37
Morrow 39:38
Robidas 38:10

So far this is the 6th longest overtime for Dallas...if it goes more than another 6:21 in playing time it'll pass Modano's goal back in 2000 against New Jersey

Go Stars !!

blondy
Wow what a series...3rd longest in Stars history !!

Good on Dallas...now we can move on...and watch as Detroit takes this glorious moment away from them

:cool:

ChromeDragon
Holy hell that was a fantastic hockey game. Not the fact that it went three and a half OT periods, the fact that it went three and a half hard-checking, big chances, big saves and stellar, old-school hockey all around. That's what the NHL playoffs are all about.

Save for a penalty each the refs put away their whistles. Unfortunately for the Sharks, their penalty proved to be their undoing. I was hoping to see the Sharks take that because that would have been a hell of a Game 7.:thumbup:

blondy
why why why can Detroit never get pass the 9 game winning streak??!!

Ah well Detroit will seal the deal back at Joe...

Dallas played the best they have all series...their better play and Turco's too kept the Wings with only 1 goal...bet we would have see overtime if it wasn't for calling off Datsyuk’s goal and Zetterberg post hitter...

Desperation = Dallas win

:)

ChromeDragon
That score should have been at least 3-2. Chances are that goal would have taken the wind out of Dallas' sails rather than giving them a boost when it was falsely disallowed.

Graphicdude
They sand bagged on purpose to go home and win it there. Makes the team an extra 1 million + bucks for that extra home playoff game :D

Just like Pittsburgh did against NYR

ChromeDragon
Haha, hardly. Dallas actually played their best game of the playoffs last night. Unfortunately for them they can't do that every night.

Graphicdude
I'm just sayin..... sometimes I think they purposely throw a game to make some extra $$$$ at home. I like conspiracies :D

Odey
what do you guys think about the penguins loss last night? Legit or not? They look like they were really dogging it out there....

ChromeDragon
Well I picked them both to win in 5, so they can finish it off tonight and tomorrow night and I'll be happy.:thumbup:

Odey
haha tsn is saying philly in 7 now....they think the pens will have a complete breakdown because of the loss.....but i dont think they remember what happened in New York...

ChromeDragon
Yeah, but half of TSN's on-air staff are crankheads.
