Title: It's that time of year again...PLAYOFF HOCKEY!!!
Post by: mjrprint on April 12, 2012, 08:07:37 AM
Man last night was an exciting night. Between the flyers comeback beating of the ice chickens and Shane Webers mma face smash face smash haha. I was surprised by the Kings, didn't see that coming. Then again the playoffs are a whole different animal. Who else is watching and who is your team? GO FLYERS!!!!

Well, we Sharks fans had a real roller coaster ride. Who knows what team will show up tonight?

I spent a good part of yesterday watching the A's take 12 innings to tie and finally have a hit batsman with the bases loaded beat the Royals.
$2 Wednesdays rule!

My favorite sport, and I can't skate a lick. Though I'm a Bruins fan, the Flyers comeback was something else. Great hockey. Bruins/Caps tonight, oh boy!

Who do you have in the first round Frog?

I would like to root for you Steve being that you are a fellow printer but I just can't stand the Bruins. Then again I hate the Caps. So for now go Bruins!!!!

First off, I am not at all well versed in all of the teams across league, and secondly, with upsets like the Ducks over the Sharks in '09, it's a little unpredictable, eh?

Yep the regular season is pretty much just to establish who gets in. From then on its anyones game.

That's cool. Some of the best hockey I ever saw was Bruins/Flyers in the '70's. Talk about your tough guys...

That ref lost his job for calling the off sides goal in the pens/flyers game lol. Penguins definitely blew that lead either way in the 3rd. Devils made it! First game is tonight against Florida, who is actually pretty terrible, but for some reason we aren't a good matchup against lol. Zajac is back in the line up though so I'm feeling pretty confident. If it goes Devils/Rangers in round 2 things are going to get BLOODY! Such an awesome rivalry.

Bruins in OT, woo hoo! The pre-pubescent goaltender for the Caps did made a fine showing for himself though, he had a shutout going up until that point...

you know Andy, I've stayed up for double OT games on the west coast, but not last night. I still like to keep tabs on Joe Thornton, he came up with the Bruins.

St. Louis is not the West Coast! That's what made the victory that much sweeter. Not only on the road, but in a venue that only saw six home losses!

Whoops, didn't catch that. But I've been up until 12:30 all week and getting up at 5:00. All I know is, I'll be watching somebody play tonight while I wait for Bruins/Caps game 2. The playoffs are just a whole new game.

We thoroughly demolished the ice chickens again despite a dirty performance by them. There had better be some suspensions handed out for Neal and Asham. Low down dirty play. Crosby is lucky Hartnell didn't clean his clock yesterday.

It's like the pens aren't showing up. Caps 3rd string goaltender held my Bruins off, but now it's best of 5. How about LA 2-1 over Vancouver? No Luongo yesterday that I could see...

Steve

ah, hockey

I was at the Devils game last night. Awesome 4-0 victory. Pens still have some fight in them 10-3?! By far one of the most entertaining series I've ever watched.

After that first game, the Sharks don't seem to have that uuumph needed for the playoffs.
I'm figuring that after this afternoon, I can just concentrate on my A's and Dodgers, screw hockey, lol!

So who are they going to play? Will the Caps take out the Bruins in Boston, or Ottawa take out the Rangers? This is confusing. And how about dem Kings?

Steve

Post by: mjrprint on April 23, 2012, 09:41:21 AM
I'm thinking the Rangers go bye bye tonight. The Sens just look hungry right now. Boston/Washington could go either way. I am personally pulling for Washington due to the outstanding performance of the rookie goalie Holtby. I wasnt really surprised by the Kings. They have one of the best goalies in the game and Vancouver was a mess from the start.

Sad to see Chicago get knocked out. If Devils blow it I'm pulling for the Kings.
Title: Re: It's that time of year again...PLAYOFF HOCKEY!!!
Post by: mjrprint on April 26, 2012, 11:13:37 AM
So will it be the Sens or Rangers? Will it be the Panthers or Devils? What are your predictions? I'm hoping for the Sens and Devils to win it myself.
