Josh Mann Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 I expect Blues fans to take this loss with the class and decorum that we have all come to expect from St Louis fans. Aaaaaand as I'm writing this, they're throwing bottles. You do you, St. Louis.
The Man Known as Dan Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 I was working, but, really, what can you say? This might be the only time the Blues have had a series with a major team in recent years were we were actually the better team, and the refs just took it from "Blackhawks on there heels, Blues with a chance to push forward" to "Hawks getting home ice advantage against a Blues team about to go into panic mode" But what the fuck ever at this point.
Tabe Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 Lots of nastiness and cheap shots already in Detroit vs Tampa. Mix that in with some truly terrible officiating and you get a wild, bloody brawl like we saw last night. 1
Death From Above Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 That Steve Mason blooper should live forever. It didn't bobble, it didn't weave, nothing. It just very slowly went in the net. That's an all-timer.
RIPPA Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 I mean at this point the Flyers should just forfeit the series

Jiji Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 I'm in on anybody but Chicago or LA to break up their stranglehold but it would be nice if either San Jose or St. Louis went all the way. Like, how close would we be to earth imploding if either of those teams faced Washington in the finals? Only saw highlights of game 1 but I'm watching game 2 right now and SJ looks legit. No holes in their game. Blues in a must win already isn't a good look and they'll have to overcome last game's shenanigans.
odessasteps Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 Since i dont think Wings are a realistic choice, i think Caps v Ducks would be my narrative choice for best final.
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 17, 2016 Author Posted April 17, 2016 God damn, the Panthers-Isles series is just zipping along. Game 3 tonight. Let's go cats!
Jiji Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 This game is the Monte Ellis of hockey games: it have it all.
odessasteps Posted April 17, 2016 Posted April 17, 2016 To borrow a phrase from the footy thread come on you blues
Jiji Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Tavares is going to have 20 points in the first round if this goes 7. 2
sabremike Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Overtime here in Brooklyn. I've been to 5 playoff OT's in my life and the home team has only won once.
sabremike Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Isles first playoff date in Brooklyn ends with a Hickey!!! 1
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 18, 2016 Author Posted April 18, 2016 I missed Oscar the Grouch on John Oliver for that. Fuck, I hate hockey. Good night. 1
Death From Above Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 I feel real good about my Nashville over Anaheim pick. Real bad about a few others.
Jiji Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 If not for the 2007 finals where Getzlaf and Perry largely rode on the coattails of two HOF defencemen, bona fide #1 centre ANDY MCDONALD(~~~!!!~11~!!!!!), playoff legend Dustin Penner, and some guy named Teemu, these Ducks should be anointed as the new flat track bullies/paper tigers come spring replacing the Sharks (and a lesser extent the Blues). I also like how the playoff ineptitude of Kesler and Bieksa migrated south with them. Can't wait for Kesler to totally not use as an excuse whatever injury he immediately discloses to the press in about a week's time. Playoff warryur.
Death From Above Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 Samuel Pahlsson played totally out of his mind in those playoffs too and suddenly became the best shutdown forward of all time for like 2 months.
Charlie M. Posted April 18, 2016 Posted April 18, 2016 It would be kinda amazing if Washington and San Jose wound up in the Final this year like five years after everyone thought it should happen.
