NHL 2010/2011

Tampa's actually a scary good team. If it comes down to them and Boston in the east, I see Tampa winning that series.

CANUCKS OT!! gonna be some canadian team stanley cup winners up in this bitch

[Plubby]

OMG WE BEAT NASHVILLE!!

CA-NA-DA! CA-NA-DA! Sedin kinda-almost rhymes with "Canadian Team"!

[SeanDMan]

Canucks again play a game where they aren't playing that well and only win because the other team played worse. Nashville couldn't win a faceoff and iced the puck about twice as often as they got a shot. It was strange too because the opening frame they had tons of jump, made hits, good passing, but the rest of the game not so much.

[Plubby]

Also I wish I could have watched this game Saw the Kesler goal though, it was great for him to get that one

[SeanDMan]

He got two.

[Plubby]

I meant the first one, obviously. The second one was bigger for the team - but the first one bigger for Kesseler ( )

[Plubby]

Since Basha called Tim Thomas a "Fucking Schmuck" on his facebook wall after Game 2 in round 1, Thomas has had a 7-1 record and a .941 Save%

Waytogo, Basha.

[SeanDMan]

Basha is the sahyder of hockey.

[SeanDMan]

There is a possibility that every series but one will be a sweep in round two.

[Guest mr. potato head]

There is also a possibility that every series but one will go to seven games in round two.

Boston/Philly, for one, is just following last year's script.

[Meacon Keaton]

I can't see Philadelphia coming back from three games down again this year. Especially with their shitacular goaltending. They may win one or two in a row, but they're not winning four. Not this year.

Hope not anyway.

[SeanDMan]

It's not like they had stellar, all-world goaltending last year.

[Meacon Keaton]

While that's true, and I'm too lazy to actually go back and look, I don't think they gave up fifteen goals in the first three games of last year's series.

[Guest mr. potato head]

12. Still close.

[Meacon Keaton]

Ok. It can happen, but the odds of it happening again are highly unlikely.

[SeanDMan]

Okay, when did Ryan Kesler become a fucking a stud?

[Lowerdeck]

I got a ticket to Game 1 of the Eastern Conf. Final.

I haven't seen any Tampa games lately though, I just assume they're solid since they smoked Washington out.

[Guest mr. potato head]

They are. I think they'll probably beat Boston.

[NewlyClassic]

I am hoping that both of the remaining series go to seven games. I only wish this so that the Bruins will have a more healthy Patrice Bergeron.

With Bergy out, I believe Tyler Seguin will be placed on a wing with Rich Peverley centering. Chris Kelly can be bumped up as well.

The series against Tampa Bay may very well rely on Bergy's health, Milan Lucic's continued improvement, and Tim Thomas' sustained dominance.
