NHL discussion thread

my fav players currently:

1. Kovalchuk
2. Frolov
3. Ovechkin

my all time favorite player is Lidstrom though.

All time favorite is Mike Ricci.

Favorite right now is probably Chechoo and Forsberg.

Always Lemieux.

One of the greats.

Haha.... great at hitting people from behind...yes!!!!

can't wait for the playoffs to start, which team do you think is gonna win the cup?

NJ devils looks like will win the East ... unless Hasek is back soon and playing well for the sens.

since the Kings didn't make playoffs (cry) i am hoping the Calgary Flames take home the cup.

i think they are most deserving.

Why the Devils?

I know they have Broduer but thier defense isnt what it was.

i think they have solid players, and their chemistry is great.

I cant see why not.

I'm not predicting anything.

It's really hard because nonbody knows how teams will play playoff hockey in the new NHL.
Will it be like before?
Or like the season with crazy amounts of goals?

I think its going to be Detroit and Buffalo. I'm pretty much guessing.
I cant see Ottawa doing it because of Emery and the Tampa Bay are one of those teams who can suddenly become dominate with thier allstars and Burke or the other goalies suddenly have 4 amazing games.

But I dont know.

3-2 series for Flames! w00t

GO FLYERS!

And the Oliers are up 3-2 on Detrot. w00t

LOL the flyers got knocked out by the sabres and also the red wings actually got knocked out by oilers.....big upsets this playoff

man i wish i saw the ottawa game the other night, that woulda been a crazy game to watch. i forgot the final score, it was somethin like 6-7. 13 goals in a play off game, tahts crazy.

Well Oilers 3-0 to ducks in the western conference finals can they actually win the stanley cup.... i doubt it.

Game one of the Finals had a great finish. 2 great saves and that goal with 31 seconds left.

oilers aren't gonna win the cup 😬

I think they still have a shot. Let's remember they did come back from two down on the Sharks *cringes* and they did outplay the Hurricanes for most of game one with the exception at the end of the game.

But saying that, I hope they go down. I will never root for a team with Chris Pronger.
