<p>Now that’s how to start a game. Fifteen seconds and it’s 1-0 Pens. :)</p>
<p>Less than a minute in on the Wings game and we got a penalty. </p>
<p>And Bertuzzi picked a fight with Weber. Good job :)</p>
<p>You’ve got to be enjoying this game, romani. Beautiful goal by Emmerton!</p>
<p>I am indeed. And yes it was 
!</p>
<p>I watched a little of the Terrible Goaltenders in Pennsylvania game. Not exactly a tight-checking defensive battle.</p>
<p>^^That game was ridiculous. I love a wide open game as much as anyone but that was just plain crazy. I did enjoy what I saw of the LA/Vanc game. I knew that Quick would be amazing if the Kings could manage to score some goals for him. 46 saves!</p>
<p>tonight, I am happier.</p>
<p>
Bah. :mad:</p>
<p>
Bah. Also, feh. :(</p>
<p>I’m feeling better, too. :)</p>
<p>I like a back and forth series, rather than a sweep. I think it’s more exciting to watch and it’s also good for hometown fans to see their team win some games. What I haven’t liked in many of these games is the nastyness and cheap shots. I think Shanahan made a mistake in not sitting Weber down for a couple of games. Last night’s games seemed to be open season and if he doesn’t do something soon, I worry that someone is going to be seriously hurt. The referees seem unwilling or incapable of doing their job.</p>
<p>It wouldn’t break my heart if the Canucks got swept.</p>
<p>notrichenough… I am trying to feel sympathy for you, but considering the last decade in New England sports, I think you guys are doing pretty well up there and should consider letting someone else have a turn =). My poor Caps have zero stanley cups and DC hasn’t had a sports championship since 92 (not including DC United).</p>
<p>The Pens/Flyers series is a disaster. I enjoyed watching Crosby only start throwing punches after the linesman came in to hold the other guy so he couldn’t fight back. Classless.</p>
<p>Criesby is such a waste. Yeah, he’s a good player, but I really have no tolerance for crybabies and cowards. He ruins his talent- and he does have a LOT of talent.</p>
<p>Both of my teams lost tonight. Pooh :(. But my Tigers won :D</p>
<p>
Well, we did have to wait 40 years for the Bruins, 86 years for the Red Sox, 25 years for the Celtics, and the Patriots had never won.</p>
<p>So we put in our time. :D</p>
<p>Let someone else have a turn? No chance. This ain’t kindergarten. 
</p>
<p>Bruins are a bit banged up, so they are vulnerable. I don’t know if Thomas can play every single playoff game, especially if they keep going to overtime.So they are vulnerable. Whoever’s 1st line wakes up first will be the difference.</p>
<p>Since I haven’t seen them mentioned yet:</p>
<p>Let’s Go, Devils!</p>
<p>(one more for Marty Brodeur!)</p>
<p>Caps let that one get away tonight, IMO. Could be the win that gives the Bruins what they need to take the series.</p>
<p>Sorry if anyone is a Penguins fan, but I’m really hoping for a sweep.</p>
<p>I love James Neal, and I’ve known him since he started playing for the Whalers when he was ~16, but I’m not entirely a huge fan of what he’s become. Too dirty of a player, even for this fight-loving hockey girl.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for Backstrom (and the Caps) the amount of chippiness and other cheap crap in some of the other series (hello, Flyers/Pens) is getting to the point where Shanahan is going to start handing out suspensions.</p>
<p>It was a cheap shot, and even though it was not the worst we’ve seen, it could be a case of “wrong place, wrong time”.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t be surprised if Backstrom sits for a game, and that will really hurt the Caps.</p>
<p>Not that I mind. :D</p>
<p>Three cheers for CBC and Don Cherry!</p>
