Tyrion Lannister Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Puck luck switched teams tonight. That's an understatement. Pretty much an act of God that that puck just came to a dead stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
childe roland Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 why was there a foot of snow in the crease? Two pucks on the line one off the crossbar.

Nictarion Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Apparently Jason Spezza has asked to be traded. I would love for the Devils to get him, they desperately need his offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Antony Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Preds need to get him (pls) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabronius Maximus Posted June 12, 2014 Author Share Posted June 12, 2014 Ottawa has been shopping him for a little while now, so this might speed up the proceedings. I see him going to a contender like Pittsburgh or Anaheim, as they have some valuable pieces they can send to Ottawa in return. Or if Mac T can continue with his 'BOLD MOVES', then maybe he'll be heading to Edmonton? Maybe? Please?Kesler also reaffirmed his desire to be traded, and again I think he'll be headed to a big club.

Martini Sigil Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 The Rangers are among the few teams that won't puke at Spezza's contract.... plus they need major help at center.... Speaking of which... Game 5, Rangers leading 2-1 going into the 3rd after a short-handed goal by Boyle... Id it me, or has Brad Richards missed the net on every shot he's taken?

Jabronius Maximus Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Wow the Kings have out shot the Rangers 25-2 in the last 2 third periods. NY really doesn't deserve to win this one, but here we are with a tied game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nictarion Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Congratulations to the Kings. They were clearly the better team. Henrik played great, but the Kings deserved to win.Glad Williams got the MVP, I was extremely impressed by him throughout these playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabronius Maximus Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 Williams isn't that fast, strong, or frankly even that skilled. But damn the guy comes up big on the biggest stages. I still hate him for burying the Oilers for good in '06, but he is clutch as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion Lannister Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 It feels wrong to call that a 5-game series. What a freaking battle. All three games in LA went to OT, so I'd say the Rangers put up a much bigger fight than most of the experts anticipated. If you think about it, they could have just as easily won the series in five or six with a break here and a bounce there. Much respect, especially to Henrik. Guy is awesome. That said...PARTY TIME! :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
childe roland Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 that was an insane series. I got a little bit emotional after the final goal last night. This run was even better than first, never knowing who was gonna step up night after. All due respect to the Rangers who made it more of a series than I suspected it was gonna be. Also Henrik is an amazing goalie but I hope the talking heads now start to remember how good quickie is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabronius Maximus Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Man I don't think I've ever seen a pro athlete as weird as Hasek. The guy would jump around for every damn save. That said, glad to see him (presumably) heading to the HOF on his first ballot. Same goes for Forsberg, who (when healthy) dominated the game like none of his contemporaries could. And there's Modano...fuck that guy, but he is first ballot material as well. What about Recchi? Looking at his career numbers, one would think he's a lock as well - he's 12th in points, won 3 Cups. But he was never really the best in the game at any point. He's still HOF-calibre, just not first ballot imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Hasek and Brodeur were always my favorite goalies because of their unconventional styles. Those 2 were just more fun to watch than traditional butterfly goalies imo. Really good class with these 3. Modano is probably the best American born player ever. Forsberg was the best in the world for a time. Hasek is in the conversation along with Roy and Brodeur for best goalies of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balefired-ed Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Hartnell for Umby and a 4th? I'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Pretty good trade. Hartnell has a good mix of skill, and ability of getting under the opposing players skin. I hated him in many games against the Devils, so I guess he was doing his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
