Sportsnet coulda thrown money at Miller or Rick Ball and instead they hire Romanuk and Randorf and then have to go out and get Cole out of retirement because those two were so loving terrible.

Its almost like Rogers is bad at the whole hockey thing.

Wait, so I guess it worked since they won, but why did the Penguins start Fleruy in net? I thought I saw even Sullivan saying Murray was starting? Or did I misread that?

No they are getting way better goaltending out of MAF than we did from Huet/Niemi.

Rinne sure picked a hell of a time to go back to being a top 5 goalie. Jerk. :mad:

Also the Preds are doing a great job of showing me just how much older/slower Chicago's D has become since 2009.

I still laugh about Furnaceface harboring hatred of the Rangers because some fans acted poorly at a game.

Youre thinking of someone else. My Rangers hatred comes from the fact that they won Mark loving Messier a Cup and not John Vanbiesbrouck. :colbert:

Also Zuccarello is one of my favourite players and I like seeing that little hobbit happy, even if his speech still hasnt come back 100% from that brain trauma. :unsmith:

Anyone cheering for the Preds, wants Mike Ribeiro to have his name on the cup, to join the likes of Patrick Kane and Doug Gilmour as rapists with their name on the Lord Stanley's Cup.

Didnt Katz literally kill someone? As the owner his name goes on too, so we clearly cant cheer for Edmonton.

Dan Carcillo was granted one in 2015. He didn't appear in the playoffs and had played 39 regular season games.

He was concussed and out with injury most of the season, plus I think he walked away from hockey at the end of that season when Montador committed suicide. :smith:

That's a part of the game. If he can sell a penalty that makes him a better player.

I mean yeah diving and not getting caught is a thing but the league will fine you if you do it too often or if its blatant enough, even after the fact, despite getting away with it during the game. It happened to Blandisi. Twice. In a single season. :v:

I have about 0 confidence the Sens can win game 6 in New York, so I'm looking forward to game 7.

e: Neil played 2:26 all game, but was somehow all the CBC announcers talked about this game.

I wouldnt necessarily say he played. More like participated. In helping the Rangers score goals.

e: I am going to laugh so hard if either of these teams get past the Pens to make the SCF.

Pens fans are the worst. Your team is still by far the favourite to win the Cup and it would literally take a miracle for any of the remaining teams to beat them.

Oilers-Sens SCF would probably get Bettman in deep poo poo so we should all be hoping for that outcome.
