New Jersey and LA, woo! Should be a good series if the rest of the playoffs have shown anything. Can't wait for Wednesday!

technomancer · 05-26-2012, 12:36 PM

Yeah this is going to be interesting. I think LA will take it, but they seem to have been running out of gas the last two games.

Hemi-Powered Drone · 05-30-2012, 09:55 PM

Woo, bonus hockey! This just goes to show that when Marty's game is on, IT'S ....ING ON. He and Quick are both slaying this game.

Sucks to be right sometimes.

Now the question is: who is the next captain? Datsyuk seems the best candidate on the ice but the rest of the team would need to learn Russian

Wow the Pens signed Tomas Vokoun... hopefully he does better for the Pens than he did for the Caps last season

Hemi-Powered Drone · 06-04-2012, 09:25 PM

It's starting to look like goaltending going to be fairly different next year, what with Thomas not playing, Vokoun is with the Pens, which is kind of surprising, Luongo is looking at a new team, it'll be Marty's last year, looking like the Panthers will take Markstrom out of the AHL, and this is only what can be seen before the cup is over.

Hemi-Powered Drone · 06-04-2012, 10:10 PM

If there's one thing DeBoer is good at, it's talking to the press after a loss. He got a lot of practice down here.

Please, DeBoer, change the ....ing line up. The Kings know it, they know how to beat it. Heck, throw in Hedberg, no one's really seen him so for the most part he'll be unknown, but best of all he'll be fresh, he'll be young and full of pep. I'm sorry Marty, but maybe you need a break. And why haven't you been playing Sykora? He's a fantastic forward.

Yeah, a buddy of mine was saying how Thomas was a prick because of this and how ridiculous it is and a whole bunch of other stuff. I'm not much for letting an athlete's personal matters affect my liking of them as they're different things, how they play/act during a game and how they act day to day but that's just silly to go that far. I mean, he's 38 years old and he's been a hell of a goalie for us. Is a year a long time to take a break? Yes. Does that mean Rask has to be consistently good as well? Yes. Plus now we'll see the other goalies like Khudobin who shit, I don't think I've EVER seen him on ice.

Sorry Thomas is a head case

Famous last words.

Now, I understand that at 38 it's okay to feel a little tired from playing. A year, though? Come on, Tim Thomas, that's more than a tad ridiculous. I can't really recall any players that were absent for a season for any reason besides injury.

I'm just hoping he gives Fleury the necessary kick in the ass. He's far more likely to actually challenge for ice time than Brent Johnson was this past year.

Yikes, Bernier.

technomancer · 06-11-2012, 09:49 PM

Devils implode, Kings win the Cup 6-1 in game 6

I'm happy for them and thrilled for a friend of ours that's at the game tonight

SoldiersOfFilth · 06-11-2012, 11:58 PM

I'm glad the Kings won. and this year, unlike last, I feel sympathetic towards the losing team (sorry Vancouver guys, but I've been bred to HATE the Canucks.) The Devils did really well, but their game fell apart during game 6. Good to see Quick get the Conn Smythe as well, though we all knew that was gonna happen. I got a good laugh when the camera dude ran into Nolan when he was doing his run. lol.

Psyy · 06-12-2012, 12:04 AM

Congrats to the Kings on one of the greatest SC runs in history. As someone who was cheering for the Kings, however, the win was a bit bitter. The officiating in the game was absolutely horrid. The League should be ashamed of how the officials handled the most important game of the year.

havocvulture10 · 06-12-2012, 04:16 AM

2012 Stanley Cup Champs! I still cant believe the Kings pulled it off. It just seems unreal.

I love the guy they showed during the game holding a baby and a sign. The sign read, "Daddy had to wait 44 years for the Kings to win a Stanley cup. I'm 1 for 1."

Xaios · 06-12-2012, 11:47 AM

Even as a Canucks fan, I've gotta hand it to the Kings, they had what it took this year. They lit their fire just at the right time, and they plowed through the top 3 seeds in the west. There's no way I can stay mad at them after they showed that kind of heart and determination.

They earned it.

Pav · 06-13-2012, 08:59 AM

I was all for the Kings this year. Plus with my goalie fetish I'll most likely end up getting a Quick jersey.

technomancer · 06-19-2012, 11:47 AM

Holy crap the Oilers have the #1 pick AGAIN?!?!?! What is that like 5 in the last six years?

Actually, its the 3rd year in a row lol (Hall 2 years ago, RNH last year). I expect this team to be really strong in a year or two.

You would certainly freaking hope so

Then again the Pens have two #1 and two #2 draft picks on the team currently, all drafted in a 4 year period, so I shouldn't mock since I was a fan during those years

That's part of why the Panthers finally aren't terrible and have so many promising prospects, the same should hold true.
