The Thread Where We've All Got Playoff Beards

[Draevyn]

I'm pumped for tonights games just because of the fact that we could get two eliminations. Of course I'm only hoping for Vancouver to get ousted, but still.

Some 'experts' are saying that Vancouver is gonna try and trade Lou? Crazy!

....how can the Leafs get him?

[TGWL]

Yeah, and they think that there's going to be another buyout period, so teams might be more likely to make that trade for him.

No way he'd come. The only thing worse than the routine tar-and-feathering he's had to endure for years in Vancouver is what he'd walk into in Toronto. Bet on him taking a cushy no-pressure gig in a market like Florida or Tampa Bay if he goes anywhere.

He has a NTC, not sure of the specifics, but I imagine he'd have some control over where he wound up.

Potato Head, when does the Kitchener/London series start?

First game Thursday night, then Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday if nec., Sunday if nec., forget when 7 would be.

And hey, a schedule snafu meant I got to do some reporting on it!

[caucasianheat]

There are no words for this series.

Wooo, me and a buddy are going to the Marlies vs Americans Game 2 on Saturday! $26 a ticket for platinum seating on groupon? Waaaay to good to pass up!

MARLIES! MARLIES!

Also, cmon Philly, get the brooms out!

But there is

[Guest mr. potato head]

We've got a series down there in Pennsylvania!

[Mountainous Cleavage]

The HELL Philly?!? What the hell is going on?

[Guest mr. potato head]

Seconded. I think we're looking at an all-time classic series here, even if it seems like a bit of a farce right now.

The HELL Philly?!? What the hell is going on?

I know! I just checked the score on my phone...9 to 3!?!? WTF happened!

[Plubby]

Fleury has still been awful this game. They're alright.

[Meacon Keaton]

What's the record for goals scored in a series? This has been ridiculous.

What's the record for goals scored in a series? This has been ridiculous.

It depends on how many games it goes. The record for 4 game series was like 36. Not sure about more though

[Meacon Keaton]

Well, four games in and they've scored 45 total. So a little over eleven friggin' goals a game.

[Hewey]

10-3, YES! YES! YES!

But in all seriousness, glad that my Pens didn't get swept, but I don't see us winning three more. Maybe we get it on Friday, but I don't think this goes to a seventh. I hope so, but whatever happens, at least we got this one.

Best part of the game was the disgusted Philly fans leaving the arena during the game, and the look of disappointment on their faces.

YEAH BABY! STAYING ALIVE!! 10-3!

[Plubby]

The best part of that game was the typically classless Pens fans going batshit over twitter as if that fourth consecutive laugher of a performance by Marc-Andre Fleury was somehow vindicated by the fact that they won. He was still an embarrassment out there.
