The NHL Thread

So uh, this Johnson guy can play a little.

[aeroshady]

Game over. If the entire series is going to be special teams Tampa will win 4-1. Horrible game.

[dmbetc]

Well that turned ugly quick

[unccrombie]

Rangers looks abysmal tonight.
complete deflation on all ends.
bound to happen after playing so intense for 4 games

[fonzz41]

Hank has looked very pedestrian tonight. Even when the team in front of him has been good.

And Staal has to be hurt. That can be the only explanation for him playing so poorly tonight.

3/5 goals were deflections or own goals.
going to absolve him on this one

I'm not talking about just goals that were scored.

When did I say it was?

[aeroshady]

Worries about this series. Said it all playoffs that I wanted to avoid Tampa. Need to win game 3 for me to keep the faith.

[aeroshady]

Also, I may have to stop posting on Ants if every time I try to come to the page a tap talk app advertisement pops up haha

They just need to start questioning AV's competency more.

Wasn't really meaning too, but there are plenty of Hawks fans that play the woe is me, my team sucks card quite often.

[kev87lads]

My team sucks.

[barbogast]

All of your teams suck (except Becca)

[salrx95]

Well done TB. Hope you saved some goals for the rest of the series.

Like how you only post when the Rangers lose or can be eliminated. Golf thread is getting slow man, go post there.

Or keep posting here, because every time you did last series the Rangers won.

Easy for the fan of a team that has won two Cups in the last 5 years to say haha. I'm also not quitting, just saying that Tampa worries me. Before the playoffs started I said Tampa was the worst case scenario for NY. I wasn't worried about the Caps before the playoffs because NY is the better team. I'm not sure they are better than Tampa.

I'm more worried that we are going to get a Tampa/Anaheim finals lol

[~Crashintome89~]

Becca's team is the worst.

[barbogast]

Greg getting fiesty

Actually, you are wrong but that's not surprising. I was just posting in here the other day when Matty posted his awards plus there was no nhl hockey for several days before conference finals started so not much going on in here. Besides, I worked all weekend and until 9pm last night so I watched not one minute of any game yet of the finals. I don't ever post when I'm at work. If you are going to monitor my posting habits, at least be correct.

[TMoore4075]

Go Wings!!...ah fuck.

[SirBobalew]

Crazy game last night. Cool that Johnson scored shorthanded, on the PP, and at even. Not quite the Lemieux scoring 5 different ways game, but very cool.

[barbogast]

[salrx95]

I should have added, Greg, that I am leaving for vacation tomorrow afternoon and won't be back until Sunday night so I likely won't be around much and may not post much at all.

I am headed to Barbs' area of the country as the wife and I are finally visiting Charlottesville after all these years of following the band for a couple of days before heading up to the Bristow show on Sunday. We are looking forward to 4 days of kid free fun.

[space_raven]

Last night wasn't good for NYR. At all.
