All Playoff talk all the time.

Richards needs to steamroll Rask for the Flyers to have a chance. And even then, Thomas didn't win the Vezina by accident.

Indeed.

The way I look at it, Montreal and Vancouver = Canadian teams, which is important. I love my country more than I hate the team or its fans.

I also am tired of seeing Detroit and Pittsburgh in the finals, so any change is great.

Mind you, I am not really "watching" hockey like I do when the Senators are still playing.

When Canadian teams aren't playing, I'm pretty sure the NHL knows.

Would love to see a Habs-Canucks final just to see how pissed Bettman gets about how low the US TV ratings would go.

A big truculent forward who gets his nose dirty ?

And he's American ?

The Almighty Hockey God Burke is already having his Leafs jersey made as we speak.

I don't even have to ask for a source because that is obviously the gospel right there.

I would laugh forever if the Leafs were to acquire Byfuglien - a guy who only looks decent playing alongside Kane and Toews. With anyone else or anywhere else, he is a waste of 250+ lbs. Needless to say, the Leafs have nobody that can take advantage of Buff's limited skill-set like Kane/Toews can. When you can't sustain pressure in the offensive zone, Buff will be tired from skating back and forth from offensive to defensive zone after 2 shifts in the first period if he played for Toronto.

I agree with that 100%.

Buff is the Stuff.

source?

Buff Bagwell, former WCW wrestler.

Did I hear right this morning? Satan has 3 GWG thse playoffs?

Johan Franzen has 4....4 straight goals in the first 11 minutes of the game.

Holy Dung

all 4 in a span of under six minutes

Oh a side note, Franzen has 4 goals in the first 11 mins of the first.

4 in a span of just under 6 minutes....holy moly

Well, at least part of me has a little hope that The Wings can rip off 4 straight now. That would be the ultimate choke, haha. Prob not gonna happen, but the hope is there. If there is a team that is capable of it, it's Detroit

Also, if any team is capable of choking that hard, it's The Sharks.

Jebus Chryst. Don't tell me SJ is going to lose 4 straight...

It's 1 game...nobody thought they'd be swept lol, especially since they didn't want the series to end at the Joke.

Impressive though by Franzen, he finally realized the regular season had ended.

Yeah I would say that is bigger of the two reasonings this could potentially go 7

Oh man, that would be my Stanley Cup if SJ choked, but I dont think it happens. I will say this though, SJ may very well be missing that killer instinct and I wouldnt be surprised at all to see it go 6 or 7.
