The Official Stanley Cup Final Thread

[Sentry21]

He you can talk about the playoffs in the NHL (National Hockey League).
Personnaly i'm rooting for the Edmonton Oilers even tho im across the country.

[jackrock]

double or nothing i guess.

I my self am rooting for Edmonton, i've loved them for always. They're taking a trip to Terrytown (?) it's inbetween carolina and buffalo, so they can get away from all the hometown media, and be able to focus and practice alittle less uninterrupted. Also so they can get used to the time.

[Sentry21]

Yeah lol i wonder who will win out of Carolina and Buffalo?

[jackrock]

I'm feeling that Buffalo will be a bigger challenge for Edmonton (that's just my opinion?) So i'm rooting for Carolina in that series.

[Sentry21]

Yeah I like Carolina too, seems their team works better together.

[jackrock]

haha did they even make it to the playoffs?

DEVILS!! (http://www.cantstopthebleeding.com/img/puddy.jpg)

[Sentry21]

Didn't they get beat by Carolina?

[supermars]

the sabres are missing some key defencemen...not sure if they're much of a challenge for anyone these days :(

Yeah, I think numinen was out for a few games but came back fro game 6 in buffalo for like 2 shifts.

[jackrock]

Edmonton vs. Carolina

[kaiser soze]

man...Buffalo ran out of D and gas, Carolina owned the 7th game

but they pushed it!

I'm proud of them for being losers

[jackrock]

You can say that to Carolina at the end of game 4 in a while.

[Sentry21]

Haha...It;s gonna be a long series, but im predicting carolina takes game 1.

[jackrock]

excited!

[jackrock]

I had a dream Friday night that edmonton won 3-1 (which is the current score). You must all pay me bountiful amounts of money when it happens in an hour.

edit: that's the biggest piece of flaming bullshit i have ever seen. Carolina did not deserve to win that game. If Roloson is hurt bad enough to miss one more minute of play im gonna be pissed off, even more.

[CJM]

sorry people, it's my fault that they tied up in the last period. after the second, i said there was no way they could lose....i jinxed the game, and my friend wanted to knock me out.


but there's no way it's my fault for the tie-breaker, that's all Conklin's (should've listened to what my friend hypothesised on what the coach said: 'don't leave your net'.)

[jackrock]

So, i guess Roloson's out for the series. I nearly broke my toe kicking the wall when i heard.

:mad: :(

[QueenAdrock]

I don't remember who the Oilers are up against. NC? Whatever. I'm rooting for the not-Oilers just to spite Droppin'. That's right, I said Edmonton sucks.

[supermars]

what a wicked game. best hockey i've seen in a looong time (born & raised a leafs fan, i can't let them go!).

what the hell happened to roloson? what the frig happened to conklin? oh man. do people in the carolinas even know that hockey superseeds nascar racing???

[jjjjjj]

go oilers(y)

[SobaViolence]

Carolina in 4.



Oilers had a good run, but they are finished.

Roloson got hit pretty hard (mostly oilers fault) he's out with a knee injury. As for Conklin, im not sure what your talking about.

[CJM]

^the fact that he got out of his net.

[jabumbo]

oh my god that was an amazing finish to that game. i mean, i only caught the last half, and thats all i really needed....


sucks to hear about roloson, i always liked him. it will be tough to win without him, not to mention with cam ward playing that great

[CJM]

worst-third period-ever

[jabumbo]

i would say it sucks to be you, but then i realized my team finished at the bottom again

[GetYourWarOn]

omg yaaaawwwn.

[GetYourWarOn]

maybe once the bruins get a fucking clue i'll develop an interest in hockey again.

[SobaViolence]

I watched every Oilers game on the CBC, until now.

because I am addicted to the way Jim Hughson says Raffi Torres.

fact.

[jabumbo]

jim hughson makes me wish i could watch hockey night in canada...


the only announcer who comes close is the guy for columbus because of the way he says Rick Nash

[jackrock]

if you listen to him speak in a video game, it is identical to real life

[jackrock]

Carolina down 1. 1st intermission.

[Yeti]

I saw on ESPN that the NHL playoffs were beaten by women's collegiate softball in the ratings. Maybe they should have stayed out on strike.

yeah, but that's in the states.

btw... Boo yeah!! edmonton wins 2-1

[like2_drink]

i didn't get to catch tonights game but that's exactly what they needed.

and i'm here to support the oilers, it took me a few nights to find this thread

[jackrock]

Tonights game was a nail biter and a half for lots of it...

Oilers took the lead 2 minutes into the game (w00t!)
second period no scoring, but! it should have been 2-0 going into the 3rd... The puck was in plain sight, Cam Ward (goalie) was spread out like a butterfly in his crease, there's about 2 oilers and 1 or 2 canes in the area, everbody but ethan moareau (sp?) is in a tumble, the puck is in the open inbetween the goalies legs, ref blows the whistle cause he thinks the goalie covered it,.. but no! and edmonton popped it in the net, only to be waved off and not counted :mad: hope that made sense.

third period canes tie it within i think the forst 10. With about 2 minutes left Ryan Smyth finally pops one in the net to get the game winner. the entire 2nd half of the third was pretty intense.

that's my horrible summary.

[SobaViolence]

i really don't like Bob Cole or Harry Neale.

and not only because of the Hughson thing.
but mostly.

Oilers are not going to win.
good try, tho

[jackrock]

i really don't like Bob Cole or Harry Neale.


not sure who these guys are, but ive never liked Brind'amour

[like2_drink]

not sure who these guys are, but ive never liked Brind'amour


i think he looks like the stereotype of a pig-headed frenchmen myself

if any canadians have watched the movie " un homme et son peche "..you probably know what i mean

[jackrock]

damn, did anyone else see the first goal? That takes some serious skill, whoo

[like2_drink]

oilers blow it again:(

[jackrock]

oilers blow it again:(
powerplay needs work, and refs need a refreshing slap to the face

[jackrock]

The thing thats gonna kill me a lot tomorrow is the announcer saying "The cup is in the building!!!" every 3 minutes. :mad:

It is 110 degrees today and the squad car's air conditioning is broken. I don't really want to watch a bunch of guys chase a ball around the ice.

-Barney Fife-
I don't think it is a ball Andy. It is a black disc.
