The Thread Where We've All Got Playoff Beards

[Mountainous Cleavage]

Of course I forget that the game is on this early again. Fuck sakes.

But hooray for Philly! Strippin tuxedo's off those black and white birds Round 2 baby!

[Draevyn]

Damn, Pens are about to be eliminated. Sucks to see them go, but they played horribly today.

Hope the Flyers get the Rangers or Bruins next, at this point, I'll take anyone but the Flyers.

Too bad neither of those teams are probably making the next round so Philly's probably good until the finals. Then it depends on who they run into from the West.

But surely Philly will end up choking..... Right? Unfortunately, I don't see anyone but the Bruins or the Rangers knocking them off in the East, and I haven't paid much attention to the West. So no idea on who can beat Philly from over there.

I wish the Pens had brought it today, they just played so badly. Well, always next year.

Oh boy, that game certainly showcased the best (incredible luck, INCREDIBLE goaltending, the Rieder/Catenacci combo on the penalty kill, lots of hustle, Ryan Murphy's stickhandling) and the worst (over-reliance on top line, abysmal powerplay, lack of a physical presence, complete inability to complete a pass up the ice without sliding the puck along the boards) of Kitchener's season.

To wit: Down 2-1 early in the second, two Rieder shorthanded goals within seconds of each other and a powerplay goal put us up 4-2 after two, London roared back to win 6-4.

But hey, how often do you get to see a goal scored at 19:59.9 of a period?

[Guest mr. potato head]

And now I'm out of cauc's predictor pool thing.

Well, cock.

[caucasianheat]

KINGS.

Honestly not sure LA will fare as well against St. Louis in the next round, but I'm content for now.

[Hewey]

Man, out of everything that has happened in the playoffs, I would have never predicted Vancouver getting knocked off by the Kings.

Glad the Bruins tied it up, pulling for them to win it in the East.

[SeanDMan]

Yes! Go Bruins!

[Hewey]

Yes! Go Bruins!

Go Bruins or anyone else who can beat the damn Flyers.

What's with all the Flyers hate?

[Meacon Keaton]

I hate the Flyers because I live in the Philadelphia area (though not originally from here) and have no respect for the Philadelphia fanbase. They're insanely fairweather with all their sports.

[Hewey]

What's with all the Flyers hate?

Well, I'm a Penguins fan, so really, anyone that knocked us off would get my grumpiness. And also, never cared for the Flyers. Great team, but never liked them.

What's with all the Flyers hate?

Are you new to discovering the Fylers?

I'd say this year there's a little less hate based on them playing the Penguins the first round. But most people can't stand the Flyers or their fans.

[thatshortguy]

I'm confident that the Blues can knock out L.A. in the second round. Though I'm really feeling it will be St. Louis against Nashville in the West finals, which will just not be good times for me

[Plubby]

I really like the flyers. Always have. Pronger is a god amongst men. Jagr and giroux are amazing....and the tandem of Bryz and goalie Bob are all-world in hilarity.

[TGWL]

Wow. Total bullshit call puts the sens up 1-0. I wish the refs would get a little more consistent. Just frustration to watch them make BS calls and then completely miss a call when they're standing right there.

My dad is a hardcore Flyers Fan even tho were from Alberta Canada and he has been a Flyers Fan for 35 Plus years, everyone i know who isn't a Penguins Fan this year as fair as i know like the Flyers or at least don't hate them

[Ruki]

Quebec is going to round two

[Plubby]

You are an insufferable jackass

I think that if Quick continues to play well, LA has enough talent to play with anyone left in the West. Not predicting another series win, but it's possible.
