Anyone watch the Stanley Cup Playoffs?

[bamaraider]

I stopped watching after the Pens, Wings, and Sharks got knocked out, but saw the Blackhawks stayed alive last night after beating the Kings 4-3 in OT. Seems like it'll be pretty huge tonight.

I lost real interest once the Flyers were knocked out, but celebrated the comeback loss of the Penguins :devil: Hoping Flyers West / the Kings make the finals, would love to see them play the Habs (if only because I hate the Rangers).

FANTASTIC game last night though. That is what playoff hockey is all about. That OT period .. !

Oh, you wanna go there... I laughed my :moon: off when the Cryers were knocked out. Then I looked like this :flaming: in the second half of the Pens' terrible, fell-apart, need Dr. Heimlich series. One great thing about the Blackhawks, at least their captain knows when to show up for the big series...say unlike Sid this time. :flaming: :bandhead: :flaming:

I still think the real Stanley Cup is the Kings v. the Blackhawks. Both Habs and the Rangers just suck something awful (have to say that like Rip Torn did in Dodgeball )

Hey, at least we didn't blow a 3-1 series lead!

Congrats to the Rags (er, Rangers) on the EC championship.

Blow it, we did...

Interesting that Shero wss canned before Disco Dan was. Mario needs go blow that team up and find better parts for the team. Shero's moves at the trade deadline were...suspect at best. Time for Fleury to move on as well and for Mario to bring Jarry up.

Game 3 tonight. Might start a game-thread for it.

I amazed at how many times LA has come back from two-goal deficits to win. Five times in the last eight games.

The Rangers are like Tennessee to me...Can't stand them.

 

[bamaraider]

Well I'm not a fan of either clubs honestly, but I don't like anything about L.A other than Quick. I'd like for the Rangers to win tonight. So far this has been an entertaining series.

Game is underway.

 

[bamaraider]

2 scoring chances so far for the Kings, one for the Rangers. 11:51 left in the first period.

 

[bamaraider]

Kings up 2-0 now :bandhead:

 

[bama alum]

3-0

Rangers are just being outplayed.

Two things about the last 4:21 when the Rangers pulled Lundquist: 1. The Rangers with the man advantage couldn't get a shot off...Wow! Not a shot. 2. It's really good for hockey that Quick, who is supposed to be one of the world's elite goalies, was able to get the shutout here. High scoring games are one thing, but with the Kings' defense and Quick, other teams shouldn't be able to score as much as they have.

 

[bamaraider]

49 straight saves over a 3-day span for Jonathan Quick. Convincing victory for L.A.

 

[bamaraider]

9 straight games that the Kings have scored 3+. Some great hockey being played by L.A, clearly the superior team IMO.
